May 20, 200520 yr Let the showdown begin! This is the series we've been waiting for. The absolute two best teams in the eastern conference. On paper, this is the best ecf's match-up since the Magic and Bulls in 1996. I'm pickin the Heat in 6 or 7.
May 20, 200520 yr Author Well the Pacers put up of a hell of a fight, but 7 months to the day of the fight, it's time to call it a season. This shall be a good Eastern Conference Final, Miami vs. Detroit.
May 20, 200520 yr It's a shame this game is on so late....what a battle. Sonics up 1 going to the 4th, looking to send it to a 7th game.
May 20, 200520 yr Spurs with a 2 point win on a last second shot by Duncan. Sonics battled pretty hard, but it's hard enough to beat the Spurs when you're healthy, let alone being as short handed as they were.
May 20, 200520 yr By the way, there hasn't really been any mention of how good Nash is playing in leading the Suns... 48 points on 20-28 shooting in a loss was actually impressive, but he then came back with a 34 pt.-13 boards-12 assists triple double to lead them to victory and a 3-2 lead... But then again, he isn't MVP-worthy because he isn't one of the best NBA players and any PG in his position could have done the same...

May 20, 200520 yr Nash is the f***ing man. I love that guy and I'm probably gonna get a jersey soon. GO SUNS
May 21, 200520 yr Jimmy Jackson and Nash carrying the Suns on a monster run to come back v. Dallas. 27-6 run

Well we all know he is great on one side of the floor then not so much on the other. No mvp has ever been like that in history i don't see the reason for that to change, yet it did. I also never said any point guard in his position could do the same thing as him. I named the ones that could put up similar results and lead the suns to the a similar season for much cheaper no less. Edited May 21, 200520 yr by qwerty
May 21, 200520 yr QUOTE(WHarris1 @ May 20, 2005 -> 11:07 PM) DALLAS GOING HOME...YES I'm happy to see the Suns move on, love to watch them. Boy, Duncan and Nazi will be quite busy now.
May 21, 200520 yr How many ppg are the Suns averaging in the playoffs? Damn. It's gotta be close to 120 ppg. The Spurs d is gonna be tested like never before.
May 22, 200520 yr The champion will come out from the East. If the Heat pass Detroit without Shaq, it will be tough to them win it. Detroit has a great D, they will stop Phoenix offense. If it was the Heat or Pistons agst Nash's last shot (3 pointer on the buzzer) that might never happened. With Shaq healthy, Heat is the champion, without...it is complicated, but I would still pick Pistons over Suns and Spurs. In NBA, defense wins game. I predict Spurs in 6. If Shaq plays, Heat in 6, if not....I still believe Wade will carry them. Edited May 22, 200520 yr by rafacosta
May 23, 200520 yr QUOTE(chi-guy2 @ May 22, 2005 -> 08:13 PM) spurs handled the suns like they were nothing Which is why it was tied with around 5 minutes left?
May 23, 200520 yr QUOTE(WHarris1 @ May 22, 2005 -> 08:21 PM) Which is why it was tied with around 5 minutes left? still, im shocked they beat them, they pulled away at the end
May 26, 200520 yr Great game by Dwayne Wade. 40 points, way to come back from Game 1. Series tied at 1 a piece.
