New Orleans is done. Just like the rest everyone else (except for Detroit), they cant win on the road. I want the Hornets to top the Spurs but realistically, the Spurs will take the series. So if nobody can win on the road, why are the Hornets done when game seven is in New Orleans....? |

Im sure they'll show up because of how dire the situtation is. |

I love how you basically contradicted yourself in the same paragraph.

The last minute of the C's/Cavs game had some choice calls, but nothing to decide the game. 0-6 on the road.
Their done if they can even advance to take on Detroit.

Im sure they'll show up because of how dire the situtation is. And the Hornets won't? I don't know if you've watched the series, but every freaking game is a blowout towards the home team. How do you expect that to change in game seven exactly? I'm not discounting a Spurs win, but I really expect the Hornets to feed off the home crowd and home cooking to pull off the win. Then get skullfricked by the Lakers. |

Oh i've been watchin this series alright and have seen the blow outs....but blowouts dont continue forever and i think the Spurs will step up and get the win. They have won 3 of the last 4 games in the series and if David West/Tyson Chandler arent healthy then the hornets are in trouble. I knew they'd be in trouble once it was decided that the Spurs will face em. |

I perosnally thought the Spurs were a good match up for the Hornets and have proven to be with the Hornets blowing them out three times. The game is in the Hive, the fans are going to be jacked up and feed the young home team. The Hornets have the best player on the floor and the rest of them hit shots at home. Hornets in seven! |

Both of these teams suck. They play like they're playing the Pistons and they're not. Whoever wins, Detroit's gonna run right through them.

For some reason, I just don't see Boston losing 4 of 6. I think it will go to 7, with them staying close, but Detroit ultimately winning. |

Poor shot selection and some open misses kill New Orleans in the last 2 minutes.
God help me, a Spurs/Lakers WCF.

i still will give the Hornets a shit load of credit. They had a magical season and the future is bright for them. But i thought they werent finals material just yet. They made a late comback tonite but played frantic and shot too many threes.
Anyhow, the Spurs have set themselves up for a Los Angeles size ass kickin on wednesday. I swear, if they make the finals and face Detroit then i'd watch like one game.

So my roommate from last year is from San Antonio...fun phone call.  Good season for a young team, we're getting there. The Spurs are a great team and they got the better of us in game seven. Good comeback, no shame. Hoping for better next year. |
