rollito 0 Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 picks? Did game 3 change your opinion on the series?I think the spurs win by a small margin.....would have been greatly disappointed in the pistons if they stunk up game 3 as bad as games 1 and 2....still think the spurs in 6, but at least its a little more interesting now.

ubiquiti 0 Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 Pistons 85Spurs 71Pistons play better when they HAVE to win. All three games in Detroit are must wins, IMO, I'm sure in theirs as well. I think we will see both Wallaces and Tayshaun play even better tonight - Rip needs a break. Tayshaun really needs to get his shot down.. I think he is the key to the series, if he can get off offensively in the next couple games and still play his typical d - Detroit wins in 7. If he fades away again like games 1&2, Spurs in 6.

princeof56k 0 Posted June 17, 2005 Share Posted June 17, 2005 I'm suprised by this series. Not because its 2-2, but because none of the games have been close. I'm actually finding the finals a little boring (and I'm a big hoops fan). The Pistons seem to have the momentum now. I would have to pick them in game 5, but at this point anything can happen.

Naismith 0 Posted June 17, 2005 Share Posted June 17, 2005 After game two, I got a friend to agree to a 100 dollars per game bet the rest of the way. Now I'm freerolling for the last four games. :)I think the Spurs are in quite a bit of trouble now. A lot of people wrote Detroit off, but home court is huge in the Finals and I don't think Detroit panicked after losing those two. Now Detroit did what they should do -- hold serve at home -- and picked up quite a bit of momentum with another game in Detroit. There's a lot more pressure on the Spurs in Game 5 than Detroit. What happened to Manu in Detroit? He needs to play better on the road for the Spurs to win.Much credit to Larry Brown, too.Peace,Jay Link to post Share on other sites

Watchable Finals. Ever.I disagree. The games haven't been close, but the adjustments have been amazing and it's nice to see a championship team show the heart of a champion. Also, they should clone Tim Duncan.Peace,Jay Link to post Share on other sites

Watchable Finals. Ever.I gotta agree here. I wathced the Spurs-Suns series and the Pistons-Heat series, and I found both of those entertaining. But this series just lacks energy. There's only one exciting player to watch in Manu Ginobili (and he hasnt played well the last 2 games) Thats not to say that Duncan and Hamilton are not good players, but they do not generate the highlites Manu does. Now combine that with games that arent even close in the 4th quater, and it just isnt entertaining. After the half, it almost seems as there's no point in even watching.The appeal for this series was that the 2 teams were closely matched and people were expecting close, hard fought games. In the first 2 games, the Spurs showed up to play and Pistons didnt. In games 3&4, the Pistons came to play but the Spurs didnt. And thats a huge dissapointment. At least in the conference finals I felt all the teams were trying hard.I wonder what are the ratings for this series? I bet they are not too good and advertisors are ticked. To all you NBA/Stern conspiracy theorists, just watch the next 3 games be nail biters. Link to post Share on other sites
kapsig08 0 Posted June 17, 2005 Share Posted June 17, 2005 It really has been kind of a boring finals, but atleast its tied up now. I think game 5 will be a good game, but probably the only one. If seinfeld were on at the same time I would definitely need to watch sportscenter the next morning. Link to post Share on other sites
