Spurs will beat the Suns in 5. I guarantee it.

First pro anything game I saw was the Suns back in 76. I suffered through the damn Blazers always beating Chambers and Hornacek, I died when Ainge left Paxton open in Game 6 and couldn't believe how bad Majrle always sucked against the Rockets.

GO NASH GO!!!1 GO SUNS!!!!!111!!!

That's what Cuban gets for trading away Nash. I honestly think the Mav's will never get shake the curse of Derek Harper dribbling away the series win against LA in '88 and missing the finals by one game.

I'm going to be pulling for the Suns now. Nash has more than earned a championship. He is the today's Larry Bird.

Spurs in 5.

And rpm you really should brush up on your Mav's history before you bash them. Steve Nash left as a free agent....Cuban didnt trade him anywhere. I'm not even a Mavs fan and I know that.

Manu Ginobili will be the NBA Finals MVP.

I don't see the Spurs getting past Phoenix.

Forgive me for using the word trade. Cuban let him slip away, that was my point.

I still say Steve Nash is the modern equivalent of Larry Bird.

Thanks for the link rpm.

It seems like Mark Cuban really put a lot of thought into the Nash deal.

I'm just glad he's back in Phoenix.....we should have never let him go to Dallas in the first place.

It was exciting watching that game in Steves home town with a guy at the table that played ball with him in high school.
My sons are going to his junior high right now and they never even mentioned it to the kids.
Canada is weird that way.

I predict that the Suns will blow out the Spurs in game 1

Spurs is like the Pistons of Western Conference

Spurs did a good job messing up Sun's rythm

If Suns loose this series... im not gonna watch NBA

lol

It was a good game. I think the difference ended up being the horrible 1st quarter shot percentage for the Suns.

San Antonio sure showed they can put up a lot of points if they have too.

I think you mis-typed there Nuke my boy. You should have said, " San Antonio sure showed they can play enough defense to slow down a team that likes to run and gun."

Dont under-estimate the power that the Spurs had in keeping the Suns field goal percentage in the first quarter so low. Its a well known fact.....defense wins championships.
