Get the Brooms Out

Last night the San Antonio Spurs completed the sweep over the Cleveland Cavaliers. With a 83-82 victory in Game 4, the Spurs win their 4th championship in the last nine years and 3rd in the last 5 years. This could be considered a dynasty to some but many point out that the Spurs have never repeated as champions like the dynasties of the 90's Bulls or the 60's Celtics. In today's NBA with free agency and how often players switch teams a dynasty in this day and age is hard to come by. Tony Parker had an another tremendous game going 10-14 from the field for 24 points while Tim Duncan provided a double double, 12 points and 15 boards. Tony Parker's tremendous play garnered him Finals MVP and he got to go home and celebrate with arguably the most gorgeous women on Earth, Eva Longoria. Congratulations to the Spurs.

San Antonio Spurs Take Game 3

What was possibly the best chance for the Cleveland Cavaliers to win a game in these NBA Finals ended in a 75 to 72 loss to the San Antonio Spurs. LeBron James led all scorers with 25 points to go a long with 8 rebounds and 7 assists. The Spurs again played excellent defense all night. A perfect example of the Spurs playing great defense was the terrible shooting night of the Cavaliers new starting point guard, Daniel Gibson. Gibson shot 1-10 from the field and finished with only 2 points. Not a great upgrade over the guy he replaced, Larry Hughes. The "Big 3" of the Spurs, with the exception of Tony Parker, played poorly. Tony Parker led the Spurs with 17 points, while Tim Duncan only scored 14 , and Manu Ginobli only had 3. So you can see why Cleveland really needed to take advantage of this opportunity. Game 4 will be on Thursday night and I expect the Spurs to complete the sweep. This has been quite a learning experience for the young Cavs and King James.

A Team Possessed

Last night the San Antonio Spurs defeated the Cleveland Cavaliers 103 to 92. Don't let the score fool you however. At no point until the 3rd quarter was this game close. The Cavaliers were down by 25 points at halftime and 27 after three quarters. They came out flat for the second straight game but they did go on a 22-4 run and eventually pulled within 95-87 on a three-point play by LeBron James with 4:53 left. Tony Parker led all scorer with 30 points while Tim Duncan had 23 points, 9 rebounds, and 8 assists, nearly a triple double. LeBron shot better but not great, finishing with 25 points on 9 of 21 shooting. Now, it goes without saying that they needed to play at their 4th quarter intensity the entire game but why didn't they? Only the Cavs can answer that question. Game Three will be in Cleveland and if LeBron and the Cavs want to get back in this they need this game or they can kiss their title hopes goodbye.

Spurs Take Down The Jazz in 5

The San Antonio Spurs took care of business and played near flawless basketball in their 109 to 84 trouncing of the Utah Jazz. Tony Parker and Tim Duncan ran a clinic and were rewarded with yet another trip to the NBA Finals. The Spurs improved to 13-4 in close-out games since 2003. Over the same span, they are now 7-2 in playoff series that feature a loss by at least 12 points. To sweeten the deal the Spurs will have home court advantage regardless of who comes out of the Eastern Conference because the Spurs had more regular season wins than the Cavaliers and the Pistons. If the Detroit Pistons defeat the Cleveland Cavaliers and win the Eastern Conference, NBA fans will be treated to a repeat of the 2005 NBA Finals.
