Or maybe the Spurs should stop collapsing at the end of games. No way should the Spurs turn the ball over after a time out. Pop was fuming that his team couldn't even get the ball inbounds to execute the play that probably would have given them the lead and maybe the win. Then in OT, how do you let someone go coast to coast untouched. They are known for their defense...where was it? Then, Tony Parker missing two free throws. Bottom line, the Spurs can't string together two great seasons in a row.

Why should they have to play mistake free ball while the Mavs are continually bailed out? Not only the end of game FTs for Novitski, but Game 4 the Spurs held him to 3-9 shooting but the bitch got a franchise record 24 FTAs. Dont tell me he was more agressive and the Mavs drove the ball to the hoop more because its bullshit.

I hope you're right. But if Novitski continues to get BrokerBack treatment the Spurs will have a near impossible task to overcome.

Wow. The Nets only won ONE game against the Heat. ONE.

Da Bulls? TWO.



How many stars do the Nets have? At least 3 (Jefferson, Kidd, and Carter).
How many stars do Da Bulls have? Ummmmmm...ummmm...(ooo, ooo, GORDON...maybe?)



Ouch. Nets suck.

I'm pretty shocked. I figured Detroit would take care of business at home. Does Rasheed look hurt? Gotta give some credit Lebron-haters.

I haven't been following the series at all, I'm so amazed that Cleveland is up. I'll watch it on Friday though hoping they take out Detroit.

I dunno if you could blame Ewing so much for that one...maybe the lapse in judgement...we dont know if Dunleavy told him to keep all the players off the 3pt....Raja made a dash...got the ball and went straight up....Ewing had both hands in his face...it was just an awesome shot.

Both teams really had their chances to win....so no complaining here.

I give Lebron a lot of credit....he stepped up his game in crunch-time....he has played extraordinary....he's doing it. That is the only way for Cleveland to win the series was to steal one in Detroit...and just hunker down and play their game in Cleveland...if they go back to Detroit though....
At this point, I hope Cleveland wins...and shuts up the Pistons fans....because Pistons have played great...but they lost momentum...anything less than a trip to the Finals for them is and to lose to Cleveland....would make their season look like a sham.

Plus it would also make Charles Barkley look real stupid.... , I like Charles...but it works both ways...you just wanna watch him fall sometimes he's so opinionated....

Actually, I like Flip Saunders...he's a pretty good coach, but I kinda hate how all the guys on Detroit werent exactly bad-mouthing Larry Brown (everyone knows he isn't the most liked coach in the NBA) so much as they were saying they would have won it without him. It sucked for Rick Carlisle that he got pulled when he got them that close, but management looked at it as they needed a guaranteed coach who had been to the Finals and could get them a victory.
