Awards for the Pistons
Here are my awards for the NBA Champions' Detroit Pistons in the 2004 playoffs.
3 Stars of the NBA Finals
1.Ben Wallace
Even though Billups won the Finals' MVP award, Ben had a great series. Without him the Lakers probably would have scored enough points to beat the Pistons. The biggest thing he did was prevent Shaq from getting the ball a lot and scoring easy buckets.
2.Chauncey Billups
He was the Finals' MVP and had the best offensive series for Detroit. He scored 21 points a game and averaged 5 assists a game. He outscored Gary Payton 105-21. He hit a lot of big shots and guided the Pistons' fast break very well.
3.Tayshaun Prince
He was probably the most quiet star of the Finals. Even though he was quiet, he had a great series. He shutdown Kobe Bryant this series and didn't allow him to take any easy shots. He also scored a few important buckets.
3 Stars of the Playoffs
1.Rip Hamilton
He had an incredible playoffs. He lead the team in scoring at over 20 points a game. With his scoring, he also grabbed some rebounds and dished out some assists. Throughout these playoffs he has evolved into a star.
2.Ben Wallace
Rip was the offensive leader in the playoffs but Ben Wallace was the defensive leader of the playoffs. He grabbed countless rebounds and rejected a lot of shots. Along with his defense, he also averaged almost 10 points a game.
3.Tayshaun Prince
Tayshaun had a great playoffs. In the first round and early in the second round Tayshaun scored a lot of points but after that he cooled off. When he stopped scoring he played defense. We should all remember his game saving block on Reggie Miller in game 2 of the Eastern Conference Finals. In the finals he shutdown Kobe and that alone deserves a spot on this list.
Loudest Impact-Rasheed Wallace
He made his game 2 guarantee that they would win against the Pacers and they did. He also scored some big points when they needed it. The biggest game he had was in game 4 of the Finals when he scored 26 points and grabbed 13 rebounds.
Quietest Impact-Tayshaun Prince
Didn't score a lot but played great defense throughout the playoffs.
Player to Watch Next Season-Darko Milicic
Didn't hardly play at all in the regular season or the playoffs but watch out for Darko next season. He is going to be a great player and that is why he was selected second overall in the Draft.
