I hope to be watching the whole game, but my 1 year old daughter has been getting up at ~4:30 for a few days now. That wouldn't leave much time for actual sleep. :(

BTW, I hope it goes to 7 games.

Right off the bat the pistons aren't attacking with the brutality that they did in detroit. I guess they want to get blown out in SA again.

Far be it from me to question Popovich, but why doesn't Bowen guard Billups and Parker guard Hamilton? It just seems like a better matchup from San Antonio's perspective. Parker's the quickest guy on the court, but Billups continues to drive virtually at will on him.

DEEEEEEEEEEETROIT BAAAAAAAAAAAASKETBALLL!!!

Not even the "marginal" refereeing straight from Stern's office can stop the 'Stons!

Game 7 is going to be AWESOME - we'll see who has Championship Poise!

because detroit was getting decent scoring from all 5 starters. Ginoblis O was more important than Bowens D.

that's the way i saw it anyway.


anyway, check it out above.

i told you guys i had a feeling it was going to 7. ;)
