2004 NBA Championship Detroit Pistons

The Detroit Pistons brought the NBA Championship back to the east, defeating the Los Angeles Lakers 100-87 in game 5 to take the best of seven series 4-1.

The Lakers did everything they could in the first half to stay competitive, but Detroit played hardcore defense, attacked the Lakers in their weak areas and ran their offense to perfection. Ben Wallace led the charge, saving his best performance for the championship clinching game, scoring 18 points and grabbing 22 rebounds. Tayshaun Prince also did a double-double with 17 points and 10 rebounds. Series MVP Chauncey Billups also scored 14 points. It was clear Detroit was not only on their way to the championship trophy but they were taking away the heart out of the Los Angeles "Lakers" as well.
