NBA Finals
Posted by: Bradley McDonald
Well, I got the NBA Finals matchup that I wished for. Detroit squeeked by Miami Monday night despite an almost-heroic effort by Dwyane Wade. That win gave Detroit a spot in the Finals opposite San Antonio.
If you're looking for fast-paced, high-scoring games, you may not want to watch this matchup. The Spurs and Pistons are ranked 1st and 2nd in the NBA in points allowed per game. Personally, I think defensive battles are the most exciting to watch. Both Detroit and San Antonio have players that can score and it'll be fun to see Tim Duncan trying to score against Ben Wallace, or Richard Hamilton against Bruce Bowen. The Spurs' two guards, Manu Ginobili and Tony Parker, came up huge against the Suns, but they won't have nearly as many lay-ups against Detroit.
