That Pistons team deserves to say they've been disrespected, they beat the Lakers "Dream Team" of Shaq, Kobe, Karl Malone and Gary Payton, and they did so in an asskicking that would have been a sweep if they fouled Kobe at the end of game 2 instead of letting him launch the tying 3. The Raps "disrespect" is, frankly, correct. That doesn't change or cheapen the title, it still has to be won and scoreboard beats "what if". But it's hard to imagine them beating the Warriors with Durant. I mean if Klay didn't tear his ACL in game 6 they might not have even won the title at all. But you take advantage of your opportunities, and the Raps did exactly that.
