Spurs vs Cavs
Spurs will sweep. That is my prediction.

Michael Finley will be MVP.

1. I'm hoping
for a competitive series. Good luck to both teams, and I hope all the DU sports fans enjoy the games. I like every basketball team, and marvel at the skills of those guys.

2. Spurs in 5
Or Cavs in 6. I think spurs win first two, cavs win 3, then game 4 decides it. Winner of game 4 wins the series.

5. I'm lousy at predictions but I certainly want the Spurs to win, in 4, 5, 6, or 7!
However, I don't hate the Cavs and hope it's a good series. :D

6. I'm rooting for Cleveland because these Spurs already have a ring (more than one).

When my team (Miami) doesn't win, I like to see a team that's never won it before win.

7. FYI I picked Det over the Lakers a few years ago
And picked the Bulls to win game 5 earlier this year.

:D

8. I'm kind of hoping the Cavs put together a run in the second half. (Game 2)
I want the Spurs to win but I'd like to see a more exciting game. I think the Cavs are more talented than this but maybe just can't get it together mentally. :shrug:

10. Yeah, I wanted that run to come earlier in the half! :)
Things could get interesting in Cleveland!

13. That was a great UNDER
They got the blowout loose game out of their system and played an admirable and predictable under. Unders are always best when the superior defensive minded team is on the road and the game figures to be tight.

Now game 4 is tough to call. The oddsmakers will adjust the line dramatically in San Antonio's favor. That started about 6-8 years ago, once bettors realized teams down 3-0 are deflated and normally give up. The adjustments are made in both basketball and hockey. A recent good example was the Heat against the Bulls. No way Miami was going to show up after blowing game 3, and realizing their season and title defense were shot. But Cleveland might have some pride and try to win one for their fans. I like it better when the scenario is 2-1, not 3-0.

16. That was an ugly series.
I didn't watch the first half and tuned in at halftime, to see that neither team broke 40 points in the half.

I'm glad the series only went four - the games were hurting my eyes.

The league better do something. This was unwatchable.
