Pistons beat Pacer
By Chris Sheridan
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
AUBURN HILLS, Mich. —
A newer version of the Bad
Boys is going to the NBA Finals
after a clinching victory
Tuesday night in which the
operative word was “Bad.”
In one of the lowest-scoring
games in NBA playoff history,
Richard Hamilton hit the clutch
shot of the night shortly after
being flagrantly fouled by Ron
Artest, and the Detroit Pistons
defeated the Indiana Pacers 69-
65 in Game 6 of the Eastern
Conference finals.
A thing of beauty it wasn't,
even to Pistons fans who booed
in the first half but were on their
feet by the end of the game.

Lakers, who will be the hosi

Testaverde cut by Jet
By Andrea Adelson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Vinny
Testaverde’s six-year stay with
the New York Jets is over.
The Jets submitted the neces
sary paperwork to the NFL on
Tuesday to release the 17-year
veteran quarterback in a salary-
cap move. By cutting him
Tuesday, the Jets will save $1.5
million on this year’s cap. In
2005, Testaverde will count for
$4 million.
Testaverde thanked the team
for the opportunity to continue
his career elsewhere in a state
ment released through his
agent, Michael Azzarelli. The
40-year-old Testaverde is high
on the Dallas Cowboys’ list,
where he would play for his
former coach. Bill Parcells.
Another team that could make a
pitch is AFC East division rival
New England.
The Jets are expected to make
the announcement official
Wednesday.
“I appreciate the Jets allow
ing me to move on with my
career,’’ Testaverde said. “I
want to thank the organization
for giving a chance to play in my
hometown. It’s been a great
experience. We had some excit
ing moments on the field and
memories I can take with me.’’
Testaverde became one of
the most popular players in team
history, but made it clear last
season he didn’t want to stick
around as a No. 3 quarterback.
In 1998, he made the Pro
Bowl and guided the Jetstoi
AFC title game with Parcells
the helm. But Testaverde tore^
Achilles’ tendon in the firstgs
of the next season.
In 2001, the first year uni
coach Herman Edwari

record and a wild-card playi
berth. But after that, his a

Going into this season, #
