[benstanfield]

If I had to bet $1000 of my own money, I bet against TP's ankles and say Heat close out at home in 6.

[look_at_g_shred]

[Andthentherewas21]

Spurs in 6, Duncan with the MVP.

[Old School 44]

Spurs in 5. TIMVP :toast

[Uriel]

Last year, it took a miracle for the Heat in Game 6 to even beat the Spurs. On the whole, the two teams were pretty evenly matched. This year, however, the Spurs are a much improved team. The Heat, on the other hand, have gotten worse. Factor in the fact that the Spurs now have home court advantage, and barring major injury, San Antonio should be able to avenge last year's NBA Final.

Spurs in 6. Duncan Finals MVP.

[100%duncan]

SA in 6.

Timmy D.

[TDomination]

Spurs in 5
Duncan MVP

[blkroadrunners]

Spurs in 5. Ginobili w/ the suprise MVP.

[dg7md]

Spurs in 5. MVP Duncan.

[Mr. Body]

Refs give the Heat a game to extend the series, the way they helped the Pacers.

Game Six in Miami, Spurs clinch.

MVP: Duncan.

[BillMc]

Spurs in 6 (yep, clinch on the road)

MVP: Duncan

[bigbendbruisebrother]

Spurs sweep.

MVP: The Bench (with Duncan getting it officially)

[romain.star]

Spurs in 6
MVP: Duncan

[urunobili]

Spurs in 7
MVP Duncan

[bigfan]

Spurs in 7
MVP Duncan

same here

[mudyez]

I'm on record saying we will lose 4 more games all the way when we were up 2:0 vs OKC.

Feeling pretty good about this.

Spurs in 6.

Finals MVP = Timmy (I don't believe hobbled Paker can have a great series. There might be some Manu, Kawhi or even Diaw buzz, but finally Timmy gets it also to honor his legacy.)

[Budkin]

Spurs in 6. Timmy MVP.

[Eddy from Austin]

Spurs in 5

MVP: Manu

[Rummpd]

6 Spurs win, Kawhi MVP

[cd98]

This series will not end in less than six games. Boris Diaw will have to replicate his performance against the Thunder. If Spurs win, there won't be a clear cut MVP because it was a team effort. If there is a clear cut MVP, then most likely it will be a Miami player, and Miami will have won.

[doobs]

Spurs in 6
Parker

[Naelven]

spurs in 7
Parker MVP

[SnakeBoy]

Spurs in 5
MVP Duncan, runner up Kahwi

[DrSteffo]

Spurs in 5 Green

[Spurs da champs]

6 Spurs win, Kiwi MVP

[will_spurs]

Spurs in 6, Parker MVP.

[doobs]

While he has almost no chance of winning it, Kawhi will probably be the real series MVP if the Spurs win. Dude has the most important task. He needs to contain Lebron as best he can, tire Lebron out AND stay out of foul trouble. On the offensive end, spotting up and hitting threes won't be enough. He's going to have to move around a lot, slash, penetrate, etc., to make Lebron work on the other end and to keep Lebron from helping when Parker and others get in the paint.

I think Parker will have the most gaudy stats. Duncan will play well, but he might not play as much as everyone expects since the Heat big men mostly play like stretch 4s. Diaw and Splitter are going to be playing big minutes. Manu will have his hands full with Wade and Lebron and Allen, although much of that burden will be shared by Green and Kawhi. So I think Parker is going to be the man, if he's healthy.

[Aus10]

Spurs in 6
MVP: Manu Ginobili

[timtonymanu]

Spurs in 7, Manu

[Mugen]

Spurs in 7, Manu

I wonder if ElNono pulls a Carradine, and just Autoerotic Asphyxiates himself with his Argie Manu Jersey if that happens tbh.

[Mugen]

If Frenchie was healthy and dominating like he's done at times this playoffs, I would have said the Spurs in 5.

But I think his injury is worse than advertised and I have doubts how he holds up in the series meaning the Heat can easily take this series in 6.

But I have faith in Duncan and Manu playing better and the rest of the supporting cast to not shrink under the bright lights, I'm going with....

Spurs in 6, Duncan as the Finals MVP.

[spurs10]

I wonder if ElNono (http://www.spurstalk.com/forums/member.php?u=8054) pulls a Carradine, and just Autoerotic Asphyxiates himself with his Argie Manu Jersey if that happens tbh. That is a bad thing to put inside my head tbh! :lol

Spurs in 6 Tim MVP

[ElNono]

:lmao I do have that jersey, tbh...

but hell no, I wanna watch the World cup :lol

Due to Tony being hobbled, I think if this series goes the distance, Miami probably has the better odds. They're an amazing team. A team for the ages too.

I think the best chance for the Spurs is to finish this as quickly as possible. I also think they're the much better road team and I think the 2-2-1-1-1 format is favorable so my gutsy, official prediction is Spurs in 5.

As far as MVP, if Manu didn't win it in 2005, I can't see him winning it this year. I also think Miami will focus on him a lot since it's no secret he's the heart and soul of this team.

If we win this, the MVP should really be Pop/the entire team, but we know this isn't going to happen, so TD will be the rightful choice. Duncan MVP.

[baseline bum]

EDIT: Fuck this shit

Spurs in 6
MVP Timmy Ballgame

[ElNono]

Hard series to call, but with Wade healthy and Parker not:

Miami in 6
James MVP

This is a series where I have no problem people picking the Heat. They're the back to back, defending champs, and they should be the favorites.

It really is one of the toughest series to call.

[Jenks]

All these Spurs in 6 picks realize it's 2-2-1-1-1 now?

Closing out the series in Miami is a bold as fuck prediction and it looks like about half the people so far have gone with it.

Hey, I called Spurs in 6 against the Thunder, and we DID close on the road in OKC... this is a special team

I honestly have to say the only thing that would truly surprise me is a sweep either way. I really have no idea though. You can make pretty compelling arguments for either team to win in 5 or for it to go the distance.

[Jenks]

Spurs are a great road team and it's a fine pick on it's own, it just seems crazy to me that so many people are making that pick. Not calling anyone out on it.

[Mugen]

Probably because the Heat are too good for a Spurs in 5 pick and most fans wouldn't be able to handle another Finals Game 7 tbh :lol

[baseline bum]

I do know these early games are critical for the Spurs, since Parker is going to have trouble deeper into the series.

[Spur|n|Austin]

Spurs in 7 -MVP goes to Tim Theodore Duncan.

[Horse]

Spurs in 5 Duncan.

[sammy]

Spurs in 6!
MVP: Duncan or Manu

[heyheymymy]

duncan

[Cowboys_Wear_Spurs]

Spurs SWEEP
MVP Ginobili

:toast

[N0 LyF3 ScRuB]

I know I'm making a very bold decision and I can't find any reason to justify it... Spurs in 5.

I think Parker will also hero his way to an MVP, stealing it from Timmy/Manu

[Spur|n|Austin]

Though a game 5 win at home on Fathers Day would be pretty kick ass.

[mando6599]

Spurs sweep revenge! Duncovich with the MVP!

[silverblackfan]

Spurs in 5.
MVP is Duncan, but lots of talk about the bench and KL.

[superbigtime]

Spurs in 6. Timmy gets the hardware. GO SPURS GO!!

Parker will get the injured sympathy vote if it close - I feel Kawhi will get it for a combo of offense and defense..............

[SURGE]
