Go! Pistons. Basketball Meets Japan.

I confess soft spots for the likes of all things NBA and all things Japanese, so I have admit a certain school-girlish delight when this sight turned up out there on the Japanese Infobahn: Go! Pistons, a Japanese fan's fan-site for the 2004 Championship Pistons team, including nifty Japanacutesy-mangaesque versions of the Detroit starting five and Coach Larry Brown.



I should stipulate that by no means am I implying that Japan is "only now" discovering basketball.

Every year, after all, I pull for the ever-wandering Yuta Tabuse to land a roster spot, and stick it out...
