    Don't count on it. They're up 2-0 and the Suns don't seem to have an answer for them at the end of the game.

    The Suns must take it! I just hope Johnson comes back, and they win the series in 7.

    The Suns can't play D, they're spectacular to watch and everything, but offense alone has never brought home a championship. Dallas has been a similar type of team for the last few years. Under coach Nelson it's nothing but run and gun, that guy must be the biggest bonehead in NBA history.

    GO PISTONS !!! :D

    Spurs have the best argentinian player ever, gold medal in olympics, Manu Ginobili, so they going to win, even tho I hate Manu because when he started to shine (2 years ago when they were champions) in the television the only thing you see was "manu and 'his' team", when every one of us who watched the games knew that was (and is) Duncan's team.
    Regratable, here in Spain, I can't watch NBA games because time restrictions (and horrible tv suppliers).

    Spurs are ok. Robbie Keane shoukd play more games for me though. Defoe will be a fantastic player for England in a few years too.
    King is also a fantastic centre back.

    We are talking about the same thing, yeah?

    I agree that it is Duncans team, not Manus. Sure, the Suns doesent have much defense, but they have plenty of offense to make up for it. Because they score so quickly, the opposing team is going to have more possessions than regular, which gives them more chanses to score. The thing about them is that they dont have a deep bench, so they are a bit afraid to commit fouls. If Johnson can come back to the next game, I think the series could turn around in the Suns favour.

    As for Detroit, they are the most boring team to watch. Go Wade and HEAT!!!!


    There IS a way to watch NBA games even if your countrys TV stations dont show them. You will need a good internet connection though...

    There's always Canal+, i know most European countries can receive that one. All you need is a decoder, and pay a monthly fee of course, and you can watch at least two live NBA gamesper week, and stay up to date with NBA action, which shows you the highlights of last week's action.

    Oh...and Detroit boring to watch ? How can a team with spectacular players like Ben and Rasheed Wallace, Billups, and Prince be boring ? You must really hate defensive basketball.

    Oh yeah, BUT: I can't pay Canal+ because here in Spain is too expensive and because the fact that ANY sport from USA (NBA, NHL, NASCAR, NFL, etc) is not live, golf, soccer, and other 'local' sports have priority (just like when back in Argentina, local people grabbed direction of ESPN). AND I have to work... can't stay awake until 4 or 5 am... :(

    i dont sleep at night when finals begin, it kinda disturbs my balance but it is worth it. it was definitely worth it to see Lakers being manhandled last year
