After yesterday's lopsided win for SA the line for game 3 should be Det -2/3. I feel if the line is 4 and higher the linesmaker wants the money to go on SA for game 3 and therefore a Detriot win and cover. They do not want this series to be 3-0 otherwise the ratings would definitely plummet and interest would fade. So game 3 should be a Detriot win and cover after that I think SA in 5.

Conspiracy theories abound again. Last year the Networks also didn't want Detroit winning in 5 instead of 7 as well as those easy Laker series during their dynasty.
I was watching ESPN Classic the other day as they showed the Laker/Celtic series in '87 when the Lakers beat Boston by double figures both games in L.A. only to go to Boston and lose by 6 in Game #3 and if Magic doesn't hit the baby hook at the end of Game #4 then it's 2-2. So the first 2 games don't always dictate the series as good as the Spurs looked on the court they went 38-3 on during the regular season.

How about that year when the Celtics blew them out in Game one only to lose the series.I think they won by some 20 points or so. Ginobli will prove to be tto much once again. The Pistons can't take enough steroids to overcome the Spurs overall talent. Although Ginobli is on the sauce too.
