Injuries to our key guys would give them a chance.
This is the ONLY scenario that would need to play out for cavs to win it:
1) Spurs lose either game 1 or 2
2) Spurs lose game 3 AND 4 to trail series 3-1
3) Spurs fail to come back from down 3-1
Spurs players need to play one game at a time, but me as fan will be looking at these signs. there are 3 lines of defense in this series for Spurs:
A) win both game 1 and game 2 = series win
B) if plan A fails, win either game 3 or game 4 = series win
C) if plan B fails, pray to come back from down 3-1
In other words, I am 100% sure Spurs will win the series if they can avoid falling to 3-1 hole.
Injuries to our key guys would give them a chance.
that is a given.
But I will add one more thing: a .4 equivalent play.
the only things that have beaten the Spurs in the last 5 years are: .4 and a 3-1 hole. I see slim chances of either happening this year.
The ONLY ways the Spurs lose this series:
1. Injury to Duncan
2. CONSTANT foul trouble for Bruce and Timmy (possible)
The only way Cleveland wins the series is if:
Lebron averages 15-20 FT's per game. Which means Spurs foul trouble.
or
One of the Spurs big 3 gets injured.
Other than those 2 things, no way. But the first one is the one you better worry about.
How about injuries to the spurs key players?
Forget it. I didn't read the entire thread.
History is on your side...I read that teams up 3-1 in a seven-game series have a 113-2 record of winning that series. While nothing is over until it's over, being up 3-1 is as close to a lock as you'll find in sports.
Yup...only Duncan getting injured can stop the Spurs from winning their 4th le...and even then maybe not.
