Really? There's very, very fixable things. I think the turnovers were a huge problem for the Pistons. Everything just screamed. We're a young team that's just not quite ready yet. You watch the end of that game, and they... just fumbled everything away at the end of that game. And it was just like, we're young and we're not ready to do this yet. It's just what it screamed the entire time.
