    I will tell you Detroit was a much more difficult team to play. Miami gets away with a lot of stuff. Their super defense is predicated on the swallowed whistle, while Detroit was just plain ol' good.

    This. The Spurs winning this Finals would be such a legendary upset, on par with Russell's Celtics overthrowing Wilt's Lakers in 1969.
    Yup...folks, let's not forget that, unlike the last 4 times, the Spurs are substantial underdogs in these Finals. If they win #5, it will be a huge upset. If Miami wins, well, that's what was supposed to happen. The Spurs just need to dig and scrap like the underdogs they are. Remember, this is a Miami Heat team that was ONE PLAY AWAY from being eliminated in the ECF. They CAN be beaten. The Spurs just have to show up for 3 more games.

    I'd say the Spurs' is even bigger (considering it was the Celtics' 12th championship in a 13 year period).

    The intolerable combination of media adoration and bandwagon fandom that the Heat carry with them makes me want to beat them an immeasurable amount. ESPN is literally unwatchable when Miami wins. It's your basic good vs. evil. Good needs to prevail this time.

    I'd say yes, they are the team I want the Spurs to beat the most out of all our finals match ups, but that could be because we are in the moment.

    The Heat and Spurs have a certain level of respect for each other. You don't see a lot of smack talk or dirty play, at least not yet.

    Agreed, they abuse the norm of "a referee cannot toss a superstar from the game" therefore they play hard, but with a lot of contact that is not called because otherwise neither of James or Wade would get to the fourth quarter with less than 4 fouls.

    I don't mind the Heat or their intro so much but that damn soccer chant pisses me off to no end.
