Duncan didn't do crap? He only had a double-double in every single game of the series. Sure he doesn't look flashy doing his thing but you can't argue with 20.6 ppg 14.1 rpg and 15 blocks in the series.

Manu had several good games but effectively disappeared in games 3 and 4. Game 3 was especially horrible with 7 pts 4 reb 0 ast and 6 turnovers in 29 minutes. You were never quite sure what you were gonna get from him.

there was no MVP on the Spurs team. I don't think any player on that team played exceptionally well the whole series. Shoot i'd give it to Chauncey Billups again.

I agree. Chauncey is the only player on either team deserving of the MVP. But since they have to do it, Duncan makes the most sense IMO.

Ok, I can't really stomach the NBA anymore but since it's a game 7 I had to watch. Couple observations:

1) How can Albert and Hubie talk with Ginobli's cock so far down their throats? Yes he had a good game. Not one worth of the level of felatio they gave him, though.

2) Way to call the game. Here's a thought, since you don't exactly have two offenseive jugernauts how about just letting them play. Now don't get me wrong, I love tons of ticky tack fouls as much as the next guy but... no wait, I actually don't. Good job NBA.

3) Rip Hamilton was freaking killing the Pistons. I guess it's expecting too much to want you to shoot over 40% for the series. Good job.

4) Tim Duncan has the fire and charisma of a rock. And not even a shiny rock. A very very dull rock. And why does he always look so damn confused? Well, at least the free throw line didn't confuse him as badly tonight as it did in games 5 and 6. In the end though he's still a choke artist and Will Smith Jr. bailed his a$$ out in game 5.

5) Ben Wallace is the man. Too bad he got zero help from the rest of his team.

6) I hate Will Smith Junior. It deeply offends me that a guy who sleeps on the bench all season and only wakes up come playoff time has as many rings as MJ.

7) The NBA product still badly badly sucks. While this was a tight game it was tight for all the wrong reasons. Two terrible shooting teams and crappy officiating. Having watched this I remain positive that by ignoring this league I'm not missing anything. I might tune back in next time there's a finals game 7. I doubt it, though.

I couldn't agree more. #s 2, 4 & 5 are especially poignant. At least college football is only around the corner.

Go Wolverines!!! .

congrats to the Spurs and their fans.

congrats and enjoy the celebrations....we'll be back next season

 

[chuckywang]

hey OP, why don't you edit your post to the right score.

 

[EKKC]

as much as i dont like ben wallace for (directly or indirectly) starting the malice of auburn hills, i have to give him a :thumbsup: for his play the last few games... he used to only do rebounds. now he even scores. work on his FT and he'd be a scary player to play against

what was that? you're not crying?

No, I'm saying I don't especially like the league. Not trying to be rude but you're obviously an idiot if you can't tell the difference between crying about something and voicing an opinion about something. Is there a point to continuing this?

<---already over the Pistons loss.

 

[EKKC]

i liked nazr mohammed in the knicks. but that team was going nowhere because of trigger happy j-crawford and the "best PG" starbury. he was great and rasho nesterovic was a non-factor this series. now he gets a ring because of the trade with rose.

A lot of players will tell you their dedicated fans are a strong part of the team, and if you have an insane crowd, your home-court advantage is multiplied 10 fold (tonight was a good example). Usually when a fan says "we", they aren't attaching themselves to the team, but they are talking about the team and the fans as a pair. It's when they start saying things like "we had strong defense and excellent determination bla bla bla" they start to cross a line.

i say charlotte bobcats after they bring in LBJ, anthony, shaq, amare stoudamire and steve nash

Say what you want about Horry, he deserves this ring as much as anyone on the Spurs. I don't know why you have such a vendetta against him, the guy is a role player and he plays the part perfectly. He had maybe three or four key plays late in the game today, the guy is a star.

 

[OneOfTheseDays]

What we saw was two great defensive and offensive teams go at it. The reason why it was so lackluster was because the D was so amazing, neither team gave up an inch. I agree the officiating was awful. Still, it's hard to match the excitement of the Lakers in the postseason. I think we were all spoiled these last few years.

 

[AStar617]

Oh the Pistons won? Word.

(Jaded but diehard Celtics fan here, the above is obviously a joke to show my indifference either way )
