I no longer pay attention to stats because they can be decieving for instances. We had a GREAT record against the Western conference, but then again they don't play defense as a whole conference. YOu guys are full of offensive teams...

It's excellent, as long as you transition slowly.

Right, which makes the Spurs' defensive play all the more impressive.

If stats don't matter, then stop trumpeting the Cavs as a great defensive unit.

So you only won ONE title without David? You're not as almight as you claim to be

Wallace was the defensive anchor and that is what they needed this year...along with a better coach. You may have still won with Wallace there but, I am pretty sure LeBron would not have had a constant freeway to the rim if Wallace was in the paint, it would have been much harder for Bron.

A poor executing offensive team with a good halfcourt defense. Maybe they win two games.

well i cant WATCH what you tell me but YOU can WATCH the SPURS send the CAVS fishing.

someone's counting their chickens before they hatch. Ask the Piston fans how they feel about that??? Or Dallas for that matter?

Or the Suns...

We'll see, don't disappear on me my friend cause I'm gonna come looking for you. You will respect my team before this is all said and done...

The '05 Detroit Pistons, I'd expect, were far tougher on defense than the '07 Cleveland Cavaliers.

I wonder how they stack up on offense. LeBron is a multiple threat (playmaker, shotmaker), but Rip was pretty tough. I feared Kobe Bryant, with his supporting cast, much more.

And I'd say the '07 Spurs is better offensively than the '05 Spurs. Ginobili isn't quite at the same level, but Parker is better, and Finley is in the lineup instead of Barry.

You all have something in common....You forget that these so called experts can measure talent, but they can't measure heart which is why they miss on many predictions...

KMG, i can understand why you feel this way. Your team is coming off an emotional win over your arch nemesis and you have finally got over that hill. Only to find Mt Everest on the other side of that hill during the most severe blizzard Mother Nature has conjured up in the 75 million year history of the earth

Spurs were 10th best in FG% in 2004-05. In 2006-07 they were 2nd...

We actually knew that "Cleveland could compete with them even though others said otherwise. It was emotional and all that, but unless you've grown up in a city with Lebron and have had the pleasure of following him in highschool and the pro's then you'd understand. He ACTUALLY has this team believing that they DESERVE to be here.

How touching.

Damn, I forgot the Spurs lacked all heart and drive.

Lebron is MJ with Magic Johnson floor vision. He's taken a 17 win franchise to the finals in FOUR YEARS BY HIMSELF. The guy has the spirit of a champion...
