no. Sheed injured his ankle and weakened the team. Don't forget that rip Hamilton was carrying an injury in the playoffs as well so the Pistons could not play 100%.

I think the Heat would still have won, although it would take the seven games (and not six) to the Heat to defeat the Pistons. The main problem is that the Pistons couldn't find a way to stop Dywane Wade's heroics. I think he was the factor that decided the Eastern Conference finals.
Had the Pistons put somebody to really bother Wade, they could have won even with Sheed not at his best.

No, Rasheed is a big part to the Pistons team and no matter how good Miami played he could have shut down their big men. It would have a been a totally different series and a different champion.

YES but the Heat would have won last year if D-Wade hadn't had gotten hurt so it's a fair trade off.

Even if he's the best player for the pistons in those games....they still wont be able to stop Shaq.
