Can Spurs Repeat as NBA Champs?

danzer, i think whoever wins this series wins it all in the west. of course i'm rooting for the spurs.

they just won in double ot against the suns on duncan's miracle three (to force the first ot) and on manu's lay-up (which won the game for them in 2nd ot).

let's go spurs!!!

spurs already tied the series with the hornets at 2 games apiece. now, they need to steal a game at new orleans and finish the series at home.

let's go spurs!!!

hi pj.

i agree that this year's title should the spurs win it (and they will) will be much sweeter. i was cheering for the lebrons last year and though i really liked the spurs even before last year, it was only after the championship sweep against the cavs that i truly learned to appreciate spurs basketball.

i think a spurs-pistons, spurs-celtics, lakers-pistons, or lakers-celtics finals will be great. spurs already defeated the pistons so there's a revenge angle to be played on the part of detroit. spurs-celtics will be a nice match up between a trio that has won it all (duncan, manu, & parker) against a trio that has yet to win it (kg, allen, & pierce). lakers-pistons also had some rivalry going (remember when detroit won over shaq and the lakers a couple of years back). and of course, lakers-celtics this year will be one for the ages.

i have spurs-pistons in a betting pool i joined with detroit winning in 6 games so i'll be rooting for that. however, the mulder in me (thinking about conspiracy theories here) believes that stern wants a lakers-celtics finals to boost the nba's ratings. either way, i think we have a great conference finals ahead of us and a great finals as well.

san antonio wins big in game 3 cutting the deficit to 1 - 2.

most of the sharps i've talked to have already given the series to los angeles despite an outstanding performance by the spurs in game 3. i still believe though that san antonio can still pull out the win in this series. they are the defending champs after all. plus, last series they were down 0 - 2 as well but managed to tie the series at 3 games apiece and force and win the deciding game 7 on the road.

not taking anything away from kobias and the lakeshow but san antonio are champions for a reason.

let's go san antonio!!!

hi posh.

didn't really thought of it that way. spurs are trailing 1 - 3 so their chances look bleak. the game is still to be played and spurs are facing a tough task ahead. looks like the sharps are correct in calling this series. spurs win game 3 and lose game 4 and 5.

however, game 4 wasn't a convincing win for the lakers. that foul on fisher should have been called. refs had money on lakers su on that game. lol!!!

i'm just joking about the odd year thing, but indeed it does happened lol
about the fisher foul on barry, i'm not really sure about whether was it a foul or not, since barry wasn't in shooting act at that time, but i think if billups is the one who was in barry's position, i'm sure he'll make a fake shoot to get a foul shoot, when he saw fisher jumping toward him:p he already did that kind of action, he's a tricky player, but also a good one:D

spurs going down in a blaze. game 5 was very much like game 1. spurs were up by double-digits and then folded up. lakers advance to the nba finals and are waiting for the winner of the boston-detroit series.

age finally catching up with the spurs. parker is the only one under 30 years-old in that rotation. spurs will be looking to rebuild and get younger and more athletic in the off season.

it was a good run spurs' fans but ultimately it has to come to and end!!!
