Heartbreak

How could the Pistons and the Red Wings both have the best records in their respective leagues in the same year and neither advance to the finals? The Red Wings got booted in the first round, though it's some consolation (I guess) that the team that beat them - Edmonton - is now in the Stanley Cup Finals. The Pistons had one of the best regular season records in NBA history and lost to the Heat last night. They dominated everyone all year long but for some reason the playoffs were an entirely different story.
