    beleive me, I am NOT counting my chickens before they hatch I know the Jazz are a very good team and they can knock us off. However I dont see Cle beating Detroit so they will be the Eastern conferences champs.


    but to me that would be boring, it would be just like 2005, beating the Nuggets, then Suns, then Pistons, we even did the exact same thing with Denver.


    I dont know, I just like some variety.

    Detroit would be as tough as an opponent as we could possibly face ("if" we get past Utah). Detroit is better than they were in 05 and they'll want revenge. Detroit is tough and I have mad respect for them.

    I disagree. I don't think they're better than the 2005 Pistons...

    Wallace>Webber, and Larry's no longer there..... They thrive on defense, Webber isn't making them that much better.

    But then again I'm not sure if this Spurs team is better than the 2005 one.

    We'll see... I for one don't see the Pistons as that big of a team.

    IF we are fortunate enough to get past the Jazz, you take whomever fortune brings you in the Finals. I would much rather it be Detroit than stupid Bronnie and the Cadavers.

    I'd love a rematch...

    And I'd enjoy the funniness of Detroit's opponents being considered the thugs in the series

    I don't know, but Bell then Kirilenko then Prince is a tough slate of defenders.

    YES -- my best friend in Detroit and I have been planning for a rematch of 2005 for the past 4 months.

    As for the Jazz, I like them, but seriously, ALL WHITE boys CAN NOT play basketball. As long as they keep their token black players sitting on the bench, they will never go anywhere.

    You're dreaming, the 2005 Pistons were about as tough a team as you'll find. They would win that series about 45% of the time. 2007 Pistons are good, but they would be killed by the 2005 Pistons.

    And yes, I want to play them. It would be a good series, better than Cleveland anyway.

    However Utah will be tough, another 6 game series I reckon.

    Yes..the Rematch of the 2005 playoffs is what most of the Spurs Fans AND Piston Fans want. 2 of the best "Defense wins games" teams going head to head is GREAT BBALL.

    Dear god no.

    Would much rather face the Cavs. It would switch it up a bit. I have no want to watch rip, billups, prince, and sheed play again. They don't interest me, they're s s of themselves from a few years ago(without ben wallace and larry brown that team is WAY worse than they were. Flip Saunders is like D'Antoni - he doesn't coach he just tells em to play)

    I would much rather play against lebron just because of the excitement factor of fast breaks. It's like when the spurs play phoenix or the mavs - the games are infinitely more interesting. The Jazz series is going to be absolutely boring just like the Pistons series would be.

    Now don't get me wrong - I love well played basketball. I just don't think the Jazz or the Pistons play good basketball (Pistons used to). I enjoyed the old games, but I cant bother myself to watch a halfcourt game that sucks.

    Wanting to play detroit is like asking for a root canal. Besides we still have to play utah.

    do we have anyone who can guard Lebronnn?? I'd rather play Detroit. We match up well now that Webber replaced Ben Wallace.

    Cleveland would be easier... but I enjoy the Pistons too much not to want that series to happen.

    I also would enjoy the specter of frustrating the entire rest of the world.

    But we're getting ahead of ourselves here. Utah awaits, and they won't be easy.

    Nice. Can you say racist?

    If I say All Black boys CAN NOT play(lets use the sport Hockey), and as long as they keep their white players on the bench they will never go anywhere.

    How would that go over?

    You are so right Detroit is just a s of themselves Spurs would sweep them. I am sure Detroit won't even get by the Cavs. How on earth did that detroit team even make the playoffs? Must just be cause they play in the least.

    stupid...

    What true Spurs fan wouldn't watch them play in the NBA Finals??

    edit: my bad, i read "watch" not "want" in the thread le. I actually do want detroit in the finals...out of them and cleveland? yeah, detroit is the better team. And I'm almost positive detroit will be out to prove that they should've won in 2005 (although...that's why you play a series...to see who would win. detroit IS bitter about it though)

    Must be nice to have Stu and Stern on your side. I'm sure you Spurs fans can just write to the league office and ask to not play our "lowly"Pistons and they would grant your wish.

    , just tell them you want to play the Atlanta Hawks for the le and I'm sure they would accomadate you.
