Who do you want to face in the finals??

Pistons

bring on the best from the EAST!
As we post they are tied up 2-2 in their series.Both teams are very similar.

Lets beat the Champs! It's only fair.

Besides do we want to see Shaq again in the Finals?This would be his 5th appearance in his carreer.I wouldn't mind either.He has played in the finals against Jordan and now would play against Duncan.Ginobili has that in his mind.

...actually, he's already been to the finals 5 times (95, 00, 01, 02, 04)

And Shaq never played against Jordan in the finals. I don't know where you get your info from.

The Spurs will have a better chance against the Pistons. The Pistons/Spurs D is pretty close with the Pistons probably having a slight edge. But if the Spurs can run like they did agains the Suns they shoud win the series.

Miami on the other hand is like the Suns except with defense and a force in the middle. They can score at will and shut down the paint. I'd think the Heat would win that series in 7.

IMO, Miami. Shaq isn't healthy and the Spurs have Rasho, Massenburg and Nazr to throw at him. You can put Manu or Bowen on Wade. After that, you have to have one of Miami's role players and bench step up and the Spurs are better at both. Detroit has more weapons and better defense.

I am impressed by my fellow spurs fans

I totally want to see the Heat. To be the best, you have to beat the best, and Shaq is the ing best.

I want HEAT!!!!

Maybe you should have watched the finals last year.

Pistons.

Beating the defending champs would be sweeter than beating the Heat. (Though seeing Shaq eat it would be nice.)

We match up much better with the Heat.

PG: Billups is much bigger than Tony and could post up on him all day long as well as get physical with him on D.

G: Manu and Prince would be a good matchup - I just don't like Prince's wingspan and ability to D up on Manu

G: Bowen would do a great job on RIP, but he wouldn't shut him down.

F: Rasheed likes to play from the top of the key and at the 3 point line which would draw Duncan out of the paint and I don't like that idea.

C: Ben is not that great on offense but he is a better rebounder than Nazr.

The Spurs bench is superior to both teams, but I think the Heat would be a much easier draw because Bowen and Manu could wear on Wade and we have plenty of big bodies to foul Shaq.

Having said that, I think the Pistons is who we will play.

I voted for Detroit because to be the man, you have to beat the man! Whooooooo!

good choice of words Ric

[T Park]

IMO, its silly to ask this, but what the nothing else to do??


Its a toss up IMO either way.

Maybe Miami, cause they are not as tough defensively as Detroit.

I merged your thread into this one, TPark.
