Closing the series

[TE]

I seriously hope the spurs close out the series today. I have not been able to see the games because of a STACKED finals week. But I've been able to keep up with the series through ESPN, mysa.com, and this forum.

If we win it is cause our big three come to play, and one of our other players steps up. Oh and I almost forgot, we have to play the defense we've been playing.

C'mon Spurs, let's make it happen!



(I am seeing this game btw, )

Let's do it!

Do the people that put the network the game is being shown on in their posters get paid? Or do they just feel it's necessary?

I think they believe that they and their sign are more likely to be on national television if they put something to do with the network on the sign. They're probably right, those tend to be the signs you see during the broadcast.

I don't like Dallas's chances. In the era of the Big Three, the Spurs have had 14 opponent series elimination games prior to game 7. Their record is 12-2. The two times they lost, they cleaned it up the next game and won the series. Below is a list of knockout blows. They are by year, series, game (in parethesis) and Home or Road (doesn't seem to matter) indicator.

2007 - DEN - Won the first elimination game(5) H
- PHO - Won the first elimination game(6) H
- UTH - Won the first elimination game(5) H
- CLE - Won the first elimination game(4) R

2006 - SAC - Won the first elimination game(6) R

2005 - DET - Lost the first elimination game (6), won the second one(7). H
- PHO - Lost the first elimination game(4) R. Won the second one(5) H
- SEA - Won the first elimination game (6) R
- DEN - Won the first elimination game (5) H

2004 - MEM - Won the first elimination game (4) R

2003 - NJ - Won the first elimination game (6) H
- DAL - Won the first elimination game (6) R
- LAL - Won the first elimination game (6) R
- PHO - Won the first elimination game (6) R

I know the song has nothing to do with the situation, but you see what I'm getting at.

Thanks ex, but in 2003 we lost the 1st elimination game to Dallas (game 5). So it's 11-3, still great

Good catch. A third case where we tripped up once, but followed up with a win and a series closeout.
