Anyone watching this series between San Antonio Spurs and Detroit Pistons? I'm rootin' for SA, though I do like the Pistons. Even though the Spurs are up 2-0, I don't think it will be a sweep. Ginobili is on fire.
I'm gonna miss basketball when this is over. And I bet Phil Jackson will go back to the Lakers.

I am also divided about San Antonio Spurs and Detroit Pistons. I like the Spurs but I'll be rooting for Detroit Pistons. I hope Pistons turn it around in their hometown.

Go Pistons!!! Hopefully they can turn it around tonight with some good ole fashioned "Det-roit Bas-ket-ball!!"
But I must say, so far it isn't looking to good. :\

Pistons turned it up last night. They played awesome. I think they'll win game 4 too, but I think it will be closer than last night.

San Anotonio all the way!!! I want to see them stick it to the Detroit Fans..haha. Plus I want Manu to be MVP of the finals. Anyone think Eva Longoria is getting to much media attention? All of a sudden she's been a huge fan?? But notin wrong w/cheering for your boy. Spurs will win.

This is a tough one because I like both teams. I think San Antonio is the classiest team though and in particular Tim Duncan - what a great guy and a gentleman. But I'll be satisfied with either team winning. Tonight is do or die for Detriot. If Detroit wins then it's like a new series.

Wow. Last night's game 5 was a nailbiter! What is up with Duncan and his non-free throwin' self? He reminds me so much of Shaq when it comes to free throws. If he could've just made one of the things in the end of the 4th, there would've been no OT. But good ol' Horry and his 3 point shooting. Awesome! Now that they're going back to San Antonio, I think this series and this championship will belong to the Spurs.
It was nice to see Tim Duncan smile last night.

Tom and I have been watching it. Since we use to live in Michigan and we saw the Pistons win back-to-back Championships we are rooting for the Pistons.
I think the Pistons will come back tonight. I was reading a Sports Ilustrated Magazine and they predicted that the Pistons will win but, it will be close games.

Another big 'good luck' to the Pistons! This series has been really weird, and losing by one point hurt a lot, hopefully they can win two straight to become back to back champs! But the last game was finally a good close one, I'd rather see that than any blow-outs like the first four games.

Yep, I'm a Laker fan too, my whole life. Horry will always be a Laker to me. Those Spurs are the classiest of all basketball teams.
Pre-game's about to start......... I bet it's gonna be good tonight.

i am a laker fan too. horry did have an amazing night and i will always remember his final shot in game 4 of the 2002 western conference finals against the kings. i remember vlade kept on saying it was a lucky shot. vlade was a dork. horry's shot was not luck, it was a lucky play because the ball bounced to him but his shot was not by luck. ever since then i've had horry's picture on my wall in my office. i knew i had him up there for a reason...:D
to bad the spurs lost last night. it was overall a good game. spurs need to hit their free throws. manu needs to calm down a bit. but i'm not surprised. i thought this would go to game 6 or 7 so no surprise. spurs should close it out on thursday.

the best two teams of the NBA are in the Finals and neither team should ever be underestimated.
Back in 89' and 90' Tom and I watched and the Pistons were always underestimated. But, when their backs are against the wall, look out.

I think this championship is either team's to win. Both teams are hungry for the win, and this is it, game 7. It's gonna be good tonight! I'll be happy for either team that wins. (Hope Tim Duncan practiced his free throws.) I think Manu is playing with a thigh injury too.
