ESPN: San Antonio Favorite of WC finals

[Jimcs50]

I don't know how anyone can pick a playoff MVP before the conference finals. Nash and Wade will show whether they are contenders or pretenders in the upcoming round.

I said so far...and he took umbrage to my statement.

After SA finishes with Nash, he will be just your average Joe Blow.

Nash and the Suns aren't going to roll over for the Spurs. The Spurs will not win three or four in a row off them either. Don't be surprised if tomorrows game isn't a 15-20 blowout by the Suns.

They have the Spurs as favorites so they can spend the entire series talking about what the Suns have to do as underdogs. It's amazing to me that a team with coach of the year, MVP, three point champion, three all-stars and home court advantage isn't even the favorite to win.

You know I never looked at that way. But they're probably thinking the spurs have been here before, and the SUNS haven't made it to the WCF since Barkley (92-93), so until the SUNS do something in the playoffs, besides win regular seasons awards, they are always going to go with the veteran team.
