The San Antonio Spurs easily dispatched the Utah Jazz in 5 games in the Western Conference finals. They await the winner of the Cleveland-Detroit Eastern finals. I dislike the Spurs for many reasons but you can’t deny the fact that they get the job done. Getting the job done though is boring. So boring that I would rather watch women’s tennis then the Spurs and I didn’t think that was possible! If Detroit wins over Cleveland, I predict that the NBA finals will have one of its lowest ratings ever for a finals. Both teams are boring, methodical, and predictable. A Phoenix Suns versus Cleveland Cavs match-up would have been awesome. MVP Steve Nash against King Lebron James would spell victory for all parties intended.
A staggering statistic exists that in conference finals, the team that goes up 2-0 wins the series 96% of the time. The Spurs were up 2-0 against the Jazz and they won in 5 games. Detroit was up 2-0 against Cleveland but it’s tied 2-2 now. Game 5 is almost done and it’s a really close game (79-78 in the 4th quarter w/ 6:30 to play for the Cavs). History is against Cleveland but they have a chance with King James.
