Game 7 Thursday. Looks like the spurs fell apart the last couple mins or so.

[CoventryCat86]

HUH?

Okay, back to my original prediction, Spurs in SEVEN

[labmonkey]

yup....Spurs in 7.....

Ball handling and freethrows kill us AGAIN! Pop is going to chew them all a new asshole today.

Sorry to weigh in on this so late:

Spurs 86 Pistons 95

Freethrows did kill us and as they have all series, the turnovers are destroying us. We couldn't hold it together in the 4th but that's ok the Spurs WILL NOT lose 2 back to back at home!!!

Really now?

Let's check on three things:

1. No Pistons team has won in San Antonio since 1997.

2. No losing team could possibly recover from the killer nature of Game 5's ending.

3. No team in the NBA Finals has ever won Game 6 and 7 on the road in the history of the 2-3-2 format.

So much for numbers 1 & 2 and so much for number 3 on Thursday

GO PISTONS !!!

I'll admit I had thrown in the towel on the Pistons but ya never know.............

Who was the last team to force a 7th game after being down 3-2? Oh that would be the Detroit Pistons from 2003-2004. And who was it before that? You'd have to go back to 1953 The Pistons handle pressure better than just about anyone out there so ya never know............

Remember the old stat "No team in baseball has EVER been down 0-3 in a best of seven and came back to win the next four"

Ask the New York Yankees if that's still true LMFAO !!
