    No offense, but I was much more interested in Verlander's no hitter. That guy is going to be amazing someday, and the Cavs series was over game one.

    Uh, its the Detroit Tigers, a team with a very rich history, AND, a no hitter in baseball is VERY VERY hard to get.

    Who cares. The Spurs won.

    Who cares if they lead off with a no hitter.

    Enjoy the GD win.

    IMHO, a baseball no-hitter trumps quite possibly the worst NBA Finals game EVER.

    But the Spurs win, so who cares!

    Pro baseball is over 120 years old. In that span, there have been 235 no-hitters. That is a little under 2 per season.

    ESPN has been hating on the Spurs since Nash's bloody nose and the Suns left the bench.

    Next year these scores will be settled and it will make for a super-duper hyped western conference playoffs complete with much spurs bashing.

    Then they'll repeat and that will be that.

    A No-Hitter is a pretty big deal, anyways Game 3 will still get more attention.

    In more than 2000 games in said season.

    About a .1% chance of happening. That's one in one thousand.

    Uhhhh yeah. A Spurs win was expected. An ugly game 3 was expected. A no-hitter ... not so expected.

    And, besides, it was the lead-in intro story. It was just the opening. The real first story was the Spurs-Cavs game.

    The no-hitter, great as it was, was in a regular season baseball game. In June. One out of 2,430. Game three, such as it was, was a freaking NBA Finals game.

    If Kobe Bryant scores 95 points in an early November regular season game, that shouldn't be the lead story over game three of the World Series.

    Championship games >>>>>>> regular season acheivements

    If Kobe dropped 95, then they better lead Sportscenter with it, and I'd bet all the money in the world that they would over game three of a world series that is a foregone conclusion.

    Dirt -

    I'm not saying they wouldn't, I'm saying they shouldn't. Supposedly sports is all about championships, yet when you lead with a comparatively meaningless accomplishment, what you're saying is that "Championships are second to individual acheivements".

    No-hitters are impressive. Kobe's 81 was impressive. But right now, the most important sports story should be about two teams competing for the right to call themselves World Champions. That's true in November (World Series), true in February (Super Bowl), and it's true today.
