The Pistons are the best team the Spurs have ever faced in the finals. They're not going to roll over and die like the Nicks or the Nets.
if the spurs win, i'll be more relieved than joyful, to me the spurs have already "lost" theres no way in i thought this series would go to 7 games (i would have bet my life) det is the 1st team to even force a game seven since going down 0-2 in the new format
when people (the media) start openly questioning duncans heart, desire, and even now overall talent, thats my worst nightmare
the spurs have absolutley played like this series and a win tonight will make that barely acceptable, a loss will make it the biggest embarrasment in nba history
we're gonna need a le in 06 to live this one down
DUNCAN
GINOBILI
PARKER
its on you
play great and we'll win

im not comparing this team to anyothers im just saying the spurs are playing like
I said the same thing the other day... the highs are lower, and the lows are lower.if the spurs win, i'll be more relieved than joyful
What a horrible take on the possibility of winning a championship!
How could there really be any negative emotion after earning a championship against the defending champs if the Spurs are able to do so??? That's unbelievable.
"the spurs are playing like "
not true, troll. STFU and GTFO
Dude it comes down to one game. Do or Die. The Spurs know this. They aren't going to screw up. Take all the historical stats...all the media opinions...all the BS...and just toss it out. It's one game. A defining moment in Spurs history. Do you really think the greatest player in basketball is going to let the Spurs lose?
you're insane. If we win, we win the CHAMPIONSHIP!!!
what could be better than winning a championship, at home and on game 7??????
the spurs havent played well since game 2 you cant take 4 games off
i love the spurs thats why it hurts so much to see them playing so ty
a win tonight will make that barely acceptable
bull mook. you'll be jumpin up and down and getting pimpo's doritos all over the place....
![]()
ill be happy, if its a close game ill yell and cuss and jump around
but you cant really talk in a seven game series, well you can but not as effectivley
That's beyond ty. I love the Spurs too and I feel the agony too - , I couldn't face going to work yesterday because I was so upset.
But to say even if they win tonight, I consider it a loss? What the , man? This is why the Spurs fans are . Worse than ing Lakers fans.
You expect the ing moon a ing silver platter. If they win, you criticize, if they lose, you scream in triumph that you knew all along.
Whether they win or lose, it's been a great season, and I thank them for it.
THAT is the at ude of a true fan.
It would be an embarrasment to lose to the current NBA Champs???
Wins are "expected" ..?? Give me a break.
I will be happy as ....almost as happy as I was for the first one. Like Darrin said, this is the roughest finals of the three the Spurs have been in. If they pull this off, it will be arguably the sweetest for just that reason.if the spurs win, i'll be more relieved than joyful
This is right on the money. People around here say that the Spurs never have 2 bad games in a row or play the same way back to back, however, bottom line is Spurs have played like these past 4 games and if it weren't for a great, miraculous Game 5, who knows what would have happened. However, I believe Spurs are due. And you shouldn't feel relieved if the Spurs win--the fact that they have played like the past 3 and 1/2 games, and still might win the championship should have you feeling exstatic.
Now if we lose...........then it's a different story![]()
This series was a Horry 3 pointer from being over.
The Spurs are lucky to be still in this series, however i still say either team could pull it off tonight.
Good luck, im going to have to pound many beers tonight pre game to calm the nerves.
My heart is already beating wildly just reading this board and listening to sports radio.
I am not objective during the actual game (see posts from game 6...lol), but I try to be when it isnt.
LET ME MAKE A PREDICTION THAT WAS JUST VOICED ON DETROIT RADIO:
The refs were in the Spurs pocket in game 6. Argue all you want, its true.
The only way the Pistons lose is if the refs get involved. I personally have been saying it for some time now...LET THEM PLAY! LET THE PLAYERS DECIDE WHO WINS!
If they let the game have flow, it benefits BOTH teams. If they chop it up with weak-ass foul calls, it benefits the Spurs. Hmmmm....big mystery...which way do you think it will go?
Looks like Detroit already has an excuse ready in case of a loss. What's new.
sad to say it, but that's bull .a win tonight will make that barely acceptable
Barely acceptable?kind of crap is that! A win tonight makes them NBA Champions, nothing less.
The way I see it? The refs have been exremely fair the last two games. I thought they were horrible in game 3, and didn't watch most of game 4. Pistons fans felt the same way about games 1&2, I'm told.
Overall, the refs will just let them play. . . as they have been.
Mookie, if the Spurs win tonight - I don't want to see you happy or celebrating. After all - it will be barely acceptable, and you'll be merely relieved -- not happy.
So please, leave the celebrating to the real fans. When the game is over, just turn off your tv, roll over and go to sleep.
Man, with that kind of hyberbole I'm wondering if Bill Walton's not writing your takes for you. On what planet is WINNING A CHAMPIONSHIP barely acceptable? If the Spurs win tonight this series will be remembered as a tough fought one (and it will likely be if the Spurs don't), and a loss will not be the biggest embarrassment in history. I'm frankly not so sure that you're "sad to say" any of this, because over the course of these playoffs you've been nothing but a bandwagon drama queen.
mookie = Tpark light?
Why the is a clutch Horry 3-pointer considered lucky?
a) He's been doing that same exact thing forever. That's why we got him. It's called talent.
b) Should we go through every one of the Pistons unlikely shots and call them lucky also?
Please...it's like me saying that this series would be over if it weren't for the Pistons talent...
