That was good to watch over again. Forgot what Ben Wallace used to look like.
That's exactly how I felt in that stretch too.

That Pistons team scared me to no end. I was a nervous wreck the entire series.
Pop called a couple of quick time-outs when they jumped to that early lead, I remember the Press Conference after the game. The reporter said Pop used the word "polite" to describe those time-outs and Duncan's response was "Polite? You call that polite?"
That series was just plain beautiful. By far, the toughest of all the Spurs' Finals opponents. Everything was just so crazy. The quick burst by the Pistons to start the series, the 2-0 lead, the raping that the Pistons gave them in game 4, Robert Horry in game 5, the Pistons come back in game 6, the back & forth of game 7 and finally the win.
Just a kickass series. No one could've written it any better.
He was polite on the first timeout, not so much on the second one.That Pistons team scared me to no end. I was a nervous wreck the entire series.

Not the Shaq Lakers, that's ing BULL . The team in general does, but not the one you refer to. Everyone says how the Celtics have 16 or so championships now, but the Pierce Celtics team has only one it all once. The only current team with more than 1 ring is the TD Spurs.
Let me know when game 7 comes on. I liked that one much better
Wasn't this the lowest rated NBA series? I thought it was quite good myself, very compe ive as compared to this year's championship clinching game.
It was...well at least until the Spurs/Cavs series, anyway. Even though the first four games were blowout wins for the home team, the series came alive in Game 5, as Horry started his Big Shot Rob antics. It was the final three games of of the series that proved this was one of the most compe ive chamnpionship series ever. As proof by the fact that the Pistons forced a Game 7, winner take all, scenario. Those who tuned out after Game 4, missed a whale of a series.
Not only that, the game was tied going into the fourth. Series don't get a lot closer than that. The only other Finals I've seen that were as close as Spurs-Pistons ('05) were Lakers-Pistons ('88) and Lakers-Celtics ('84), which are widely considered the two greatest Finals ever. Oh, to be a big market.
The game was over long time ago...It was good and why dont we alll get over it. For guys who havent watch it,heres ur chance, for guys who already watch, we'll i guess u need to buy ur own popcorn
Read the thread, then if you still stand by your statement due to the comments placed in this thread, seek help.
I think the thing that I'll never forget about Game 6 of the 2005 Finals is just how dead that building seemed to be all night. It was the apex of the Spoiled Spurs Fan syndrome (at least until Game 1 of the 2007 WCF). It was a building full of people who came to see the Spurs win a le, but who didn't bring much energy with them. It was really bizarre given what had happened two nights earlier in Detroit -- I figured that place was going to be rocking for hours with Spurs fans who were still living on adrenaline after Game 5 and it was a crowd that mostly sat on its hands. I remember coming into the forum after getting home from that game and ranting for quite a while about how frustrating that whole thing was.
And then I remember getting really pumped knowing that I'd get to see a Finals Game 7 in person. . . .
Yeah i remember that as well...the guy behind me told me to sit down a few times. It was terrible. But game 7 was one of the loudest games ive ever been to so it worked out fine.
