And Detroit takes pride on their ability to perform on the road.

and the Celtics can play defense and score also. Detroit really is a better matchup for boston the Clevland was. Detroit really lacks that guy that will put up 30-40 points, which means Pierce wont exaust himself on defense, don't get me wrong they have good players that can score, but the thing that make lebron so tiring is his size, the guys bigger the most NFL TE's.

Dunno, the Pistons still worry me but the more I look at it i'm less worried that I originally thought.

I would think all teams take pride in ability to preform on the road....

That being said, Detroit won 1 game on the road, and they also lost one at home, boston hasn't lost at home so you could say Boston takes more price in their ability to preform at home then Detroit does at home?

Gonna be a great series, Boston in 7, but Detroit in 6 wouldn't completely shock me.

**IC Champion** · 05-19-2008, 06:30 PM

Detriot is a better team than Cleveland, sure they don't have a LeBron James, but they have Billups, Wallace ,Prince, and Hamilton. They have good team chemistry and the benefit is they don't rely on any one guy to win. I think that's more of an advantage than anything. And they pretty much had their way with Orlando who is a pretty good team.

Wallace should give Garnert alot more trouble than the Cav's bigs did on both end of the floor. Wallace is one of the better big man in the league, and is a really good defender.

Let's not forget their bench which I would say is better than Boston's is and I think things are looking good for Detriot. Sure Pierce had a good game, but he also had a couple bad ones, and Allen who is supposed to be one of the leagues premier shooters is shooting around 37% from the floor and averaging 12 ppg.

Which is why I say Pistons in 6.

**McLegend** · 05-19-2008, 09:19 PM

Ugh Spurs with a 10 point lead. I know it's early, but that's not good.

**McLegend** · 05-19-2008, 09:28 PM

Nah chill bro it's fine

**SammyG** · 05-19-2008, 09:35 PM

Yo let's go Spurs. I am afraid of Chris Paul

**McLegend** · 05-19-2008, 09:36 PM

Spurs up 11 again.

**mrslackalack** · 05-19-2008, 10:30 PM

Spurs up 15 at the end of the 3rd quarter.

**SammyG** · 05-19-2008, 10:33 PM

WOOOOOOOO Spurs gonna win

**mrslackalack** · 05-19-2008, 10:51 PM

I think the Lakers/Spurs will be a great series. I see this series going 7 and I can see the Spurs getting a W in LA and LA getting a W in SA. 13 of the last 17 titles have been won by a Phil Jackson or Pop coached team.

**IC Champion** · 05-19-2008, 10:52 PM

down to 6 with free throws coming.

**SammyG** · 05-19-2008, 10:56 PM

4 point game FUCK

**SammyG** · 05-19-2008, 10:56 PM

lol Peja

**IC Champion** · 05-19-2008, 10:59 PM

Pops was gonna have a stroke.

**SammyG** · 05-19-2008, 11:01 PM

K, LAKERS SPURS.

FUCK YOU NINTI

**Jura** · 05-19-2008, 11:01 PM

I know Pargo has hit some big shots but why are they relying on him to be the man?

**SammyG** · 05-19-2008, 11:08 PM

Damn, what a final 4..

Celtics/Pistons
Spurs/Lakers

**mrslackalack** · 05-19-2008, 11:11 PM

Kobes desired to win the title as a captain. Spurs are motivated by naysayers saying that they cant repeat as champs. 2 Heckvua potential conf matchups. For the finals I hope its Celtics/Lakers (would draw HUGE ratings if it happens) or Pistons/Spurs (They had a great 7 game series in the 05 finals with many of the games coming down to the end.

**McLegend** · 05-19-2008, 11:14 PM

If there was ever a game the Spurs should have lost it was this one. For some reason GINOBILI and Tim Duncan just went cold in the 4th quarter.

I've never seen GINOBILI play that flat in the 4th. Spurs kind of looked listless in the closing mintues. They made uncharacteristic mistakes, and got careless.

That was proably the best chance anyone is going to have eliminating the Spurs.

**SammyG** · 05-19-2008, 11:16 PM

The world is praying to not have a Pistons Spurs finals.

It would be almost as bad as Cavs Spurs

**mrslackalack** · 05-19-2008, 11:34 PM

Skip Bayless calls the Spurs the ''ratings killer'' funny thing is he is clearly a huge Spurs fan.

**Ninti the Mad** · 05-20-2008, 12:23 AM

Thats why you dont talk shit, Kris P Lettus.

**SammyG** · 05-20-2008, 12:33 AM

This series is going 6 or 7. Gonna be mad intense.

**Ninti the Mad** · 05-20-2008, 12:35 AM

Yup.

Did you see Ime Udoka tonight? holy shit he rocked the Hornets.

**Ninti the Mad** · 05-20-2008, 12:36 AM

BTW, for those who dont follow the Spurs much.

Ime Udoka is being prepped to be the next Bruce Bowen. Only difference is that he can actually run and dribble, make layups, and can shoot from multiple areas for threes.

**DaveWadding** · 05-20-2008, 12:38 AM

He is also being trained by Bowen in the art of being a cheap dirty piece of shit.

**SammyG** · 05-20-2008, 12:39 AM

Lakers in 7, gonna say.

**SammyG** · 05-20-2008, 12:39 AM

Yeah, I am concerned about Bowen being a piece of shit and injuring Kobe.

**Ninti the Mad** · 05-20-2008, 12:45 AM

lol

Bowen isnt even dirty. Its just that the media hates the Spurs so they always exaggerate shit.

Like the Horry thing. EXAGGERATED. You think that was bad? Check what Chandler did to Parker in Game 5.

Now I wont say anything about who will win because I dont want to put my foot in my mouth like 'KRIS P LETTUS' but the Spurs fought two series' with AWESOME competition. Lakers have been cruising pretty much. I expect the Lakers to be shell shocked in Game 1but lets see.

ITS ON

**Ninti the Mad** · 05-20-2008, 12:46 AM

Hey Wadding... how is your team doing? Are they still in the playoffs? I havent been keeping up with them.

I think there's a certain 2 time MVP whose balls might disagree.

Dude, Bowen is the dirtiest player of all time. There are like 20 million vids of him being the dirtiest player in the game on youtube. How can you defend him?

**DaveWadding** · 05-20-2008, 12:56 AM

At least Raja didn't act like that shit never happened. Or put on the Tim Duncan face. I don't remember if it was, but that sure as hell should have been a flagrant.

Okay yeah, it was a flagrant 2.

**Ninti the Mad** · 05-20-2008, 12:56 AM

Or this?

**Ninti the Mad** · 05-20-2008, 12:57 AM

Or this?

**Ninti the Mad** · 05-20-2008, 12:58 AM

Point is. Basketball is a physical sport and sometimes shit happens.
