Not to be cocky (considering I don't watch basketball until the finals and I'm athletically challenged) but maybe there's a reason they're going for a three-peat... My take on the finals thus far...

Spurs are **** good at 3 pointers and shootin baskets. Especially when they pass it to someone that's in the right or left corners... **** Detroit always sucks at covering the guy out in the corner, and they're good at shooting from that angle. That crook nose guy can throw that ball pretty good for those half court or more shots. Their defense isn't that strong though, they're more focused on offense.

Detroit sucks at shooting. Plain and simple. I don't play basketball, but I could shoot the **** ball better than they could. I'm so tired of watching a professional basketball game and seeing 80% of the shots bouncing off the rim... use the **** backboard if they have to, as long as it goes in who cares... they're worrying too much to make 100% net shots, and they all have horrible perception judgement. Last night was the first night I was really impressed with their shooting, beginning of the game they sucked and it's like the only shots they can do are layups and dunks... hell a few times they missed from like 3 feet away, but then second half they finally got their confidence going and they shot well. Detroit's defense is pretty **** good, though.

Oh bloody hell.

The Spurs just had to lose that last game didn't they? We'll see how they do tonight. I really thought they were going to close it out Tuesday night considering Detroit's track record with games in San Antonio......guess not.
