Surf - something tells me there will be some more dramitic finishes before a Champ is crowned. Are the Spurs dead, no, are they taking on water, for sure. After some very ho-hum first round, and early second round games things have gotten very exciting in the NBA lately. More this weekend, should be one hell of a weekend considering football is out of season.

The last 5 years have produced 3 championships for the Lakers and 2 for the Spurs, we're before 2 champions playing their hearts out. The shots by Duncan and Fisher prove none of these 2 teams was ready to give up, not even with 0.4 seconds on the clock.
The way I saw the game, the Spurs never found their game last nite. They are a better team, as the Lakers have a lot of talent but a lot of ego on the court. With Payton, Malone, Bryant and O'neil they have a dream team, why is it that they can't produce as one?
On the other hand, the Spurs have had the most consistent defense of all teams and the Lakers the most difficult offense to contain.
Game 6 is do or die for the Spurs and they know it. They are on a mission and they're champions breed, do not understimate a team like the Spurs.
I think this coming game will be hard and ugly, just like the one last nite. The under comes to mind and as Wilheim, I'd only lay 4½ on the Lakers, but my heart being with the Spurs, I'd also wait to get a 6 point dog... I know Lander is taking both...
I predict the Spurs will win the series in San Antonio on game 7 and the series with the T-Wolves will be awesome as well. Good luck to all.

I have to agree...The Spurs beat themselves. They are a much better TEAM than the Lakers and if they are to pull out a win in Game 6...you have to think that they will not lose 2 in a row at home. JMO
