Game 5 Predictions.

[2centsworth]

I hope I'm wrong about this one, and if I am I will celebrate and this will be my last prediction of the year.


Suns will continue to play the same. They are amazingly consistent. Maybe that's why the have the same home and road record, so expect the Suns to continue to be unstoppable on the offensive end.

The question is if the Spurs can continue the pace? I don't think the spurs will shoot 70% in the 4th, so I don't expect the spurs to pull this one out.

Suns 111
Spurs 102

Spurs 100, Suns 98

TD 28
MG 27
TP 26

Barry 3 x 3
Horry 4 x 3
Bruce 2 x 3

Halftime Suns 51, Spurs 48

WTF, I want a WIN

[GhostofAlfrederickHughes]

Suns 110
Spurs 97

Nash goes crazy for about 40 pts. Phoenix fans go crazy. Spurs fans go crazy, not in a good way.

Sorry folks. This one's going at least 6.

But I hope I'm wrong.

[texbumTHElife]

Spurs come out with energy and control the tempo throughout the first half.

Halftime score:
Spurs - 56
Suns - 47

The Suns come out in the second half and take advantage of a flat Spurs team. The transition offense begins firing on all cylinders. Nash has 11 points and 6 dimes in the quarter and Phoenix goes up.

End of 3rd:
Spurs - 70
Suns - 78

The fourth quarter looks much like games 1-3. The Spurs come out with a defense first mentality. The stops on defense gives them confidence on offense. Barry, Horry and Manu each hit big 3's. Tony Parker drives and dishes while knocking down a couple mid range jumpers. Tim Duncan is his old steady self and knocks down 3/4 FT's in the last minute to ice it.

End of Game:
Spurs - 98
Suns - 93

[Supergirl]

Spurs 110
Suns 105

Nash scores 30-40 points, but has 5-8 assists. Amare gets into foul trouble but still scores 30. Marion and Johnson shut down. Manu, Parker, Duncan all score 20+ points, Horry and Mohammed in the double digits again.

[DDS4]

It's going to ovaltine--

Spurs 123
Suns 119

Manu and Tim with big games.

[Dre_7]

Timmy will be back!

[shelshor]

suns tank is fumes after game 4
spurs defense regains that step they lost
too late for suns to play defense 2 games in a row

spurs--104
suns---89

marion and amare get technicals for tantrums

[bigbendbruisebrother]

I have a feeling of dread similar to the feeling I had before the Golden State game. That worked out rather well, so hopefully the Spurs have a similar sense of appropriate fear, to use a Popism from last season.

[Jimcs50]

We already have this in vBookie thread.

[HB22inSA]

This one may get out of hand very quickly.

Spurs 101
Suns 117

Spurs 101

Why all this fear of choking?
Spurs 115
Suns 105

[BillsCarnage]

I figured the Spurs would win in 6 and am sticking to that. Suns should win tonight with the Spurs wrapping it up at home. With JoJo back the Suns will be at full strength and hitting on all cylinders for the first time since gm1 w/Dallas. If the Suns play like that game they'll rout SA.

If the Spurs lose tonight the pressure mounts even more for them.

No way! That team had Stubborn Me-bury. He will never lead a team to a title. Might as well have been playing the Clips. We have a PG who can dish and create shots for others as well as a dominating presense in the paint.

[samikeyp]

That team had Stubborn Me-bury

:lmao

[beirmeistr]

Big game by Duncan and Ginobili. Good transition defense by the Spurs. Good production from Horry and Barry in the fourth. Great rebounding by Duncan and Mohammed. Spurs take it 104-90.

[mavsfan1000]

You mean Cancerbury. The me first type of player. It's funny how much better the suns got with Nash instead of Stephon.

[BillsCarnage]

You mean Cancerbury. The me first type of player. It's funny how much better the suns got with Nash instead of Stephon.

And how much worse the Knicks got with Me-bury. I could not stand him and Kidd. Kidd will never lead a team to a championship unless he gravy-trains one.

I can't tell you how happy i was when the Suns traded Me-bury, dead weight Penny, and Goofliata.

rascal predicting the Spurs to lose? no way! :angel

[NZHayden]

for some strange reason i think its gonna be a low scoring game. please prove wrong, but yea the spurs will win.
89 - 82

[CaptainLate]

Spurs 103
Suns 97

Looks like this prediction is the winner. Only off one FG per team. Now we rest for the winner of the "toe-to-toe" brutal fight we all hope goes down to Game 7. I want to beat Shaq Daddy again. But I also would like to sweep the imposter "champs" from last year and give the coach who ticked off DRob a nice send off to his new job in Cleveland. hehehe
