Which team has shown the most heart?

[bdubya]

It's a tough call, but I'm saying Sixers. Rockets winning on the road is a very close second, but the Sixers have bounced back twice already.

Would the Spurs have swept the Pistons in the Finals last year? Anybody believe that?

I'll answer that as a Cavs fan: absolutely not. Had the Spurs shown up for Game 3 the way they did against a veteran Pistons team in Auburn Hills, they'd have been wiped out by 20 points. Detroit would have taken at least one, possibly two games in that series.

But I'll concede that point and still argue till I'm blue in the face that the Cavaliers were the better team on the floor when they played the Pistons. They were more athletic, deeper, played better defense, were better coached, and had the best player on the floor.

The Pistons didn't lose the ECF. They were beaten, straight-up. How they would have done against the Spurs is another argument.

Bump. I think a revote is in order.

[Pistons < Spurs]

Sixers, without a question.

And I'm getting tired of hearing that the only reason the Sixers are up 2-1 in this series is because the "Pistons are farting around" or "aren't giving it their all."


this is the playoffs. Maybe, just maybe, the Pistons aren't as good as everyone thinks they are?

Still so sure about that?

i'll still vote rockets. hawks are just too young and inexperienced to realize what's going on.

Rockets

Is anybody else still doubting that the Hawks are the ones showing the most heart??

[JamStone]

With the Hawks, I'm not sure it's so much heart than it is the fact they don't know any better. Plus, all of their wins have been at home where they've ridden the crowd. They've been blown out in Boston. Rockets won at Utah, an impossible place to win for visiting teams, after losing the first two games at home. Sixers won at Detroit in game 1. Hawks have shown great energy and athleticism at home. Heart would have been taking a game at Boston in one of their first three attempts in the series.
