Wow, what a game for the spurs everyone counting out the defending champs but they show everyone with a good road victory to make the west finals. I said in my preview if they can quiet the crowd early and make this a boring game for them the spurs can win.
However do not give the good win credit to the spurs only as the hornets failed to get the job done early and they missed a lot of good looks during the third quarter which is important for the spurs.
Timmy had another okay game but could have done better if he had not got in foul trouble.
CP3 had another good game but i was very shocked that Jannero Pargo took a lot of the fourth quarter shots. if DWest or Cp3 took more shots and made them the hornets could have took the lead.
Now the message for Kobe Bryant is can your team that is led by you MVP can overpower the champs that have been strong out through the playoffs. If so Kobe Bryant is more closer to becoming the best player for his time. SO I think Kobe will show a message that you guys have not seen the lakers yet and will winthe series in 6 or 7

hornets spurs preview game 7
in game 7 i predict the spurs might be able to steal the game 7. A lot of people think the hormets have a better chance in the game 7 because they have blown out the spurs at home whenever they played. I know this true but the spurs have been in many game 7's before. Like two years ago in the second round vs dallas and three years ago in the finals vs detroit. Even though those games games were in San Antoinio the spurs have known the intensity of a game 7. Another thing which is not good for The hornets is not having David West 100%. That means CP3 will have to do more scoring and get more tired. The spurs know how to quiet a crowd and when they do they get higher on a lead. I think Chris paul will have 30 or more points in game 7 and parker will have about the same. I think ginobili will have a good game but Timmy Duncan will be the difference for the spurs as he has struggled on the road in the big easy.

game 6 preview nba playoffs cavaliers celtics
I believe there are three keys for victory if you are the cavaliers. Number one: good early start, the cavs need a good start because like any other home fans when the home team goes on a great run the road team loses courage and makes it harder for them to come back that is what happened in game 3 when the cavs blew out the celtics. Number two: lebron getting players involved. When lebron james gets his team involved they do not let him down. Players like Delonte West and Wally Szcerbiak make their shots and the cavs get rolling. Number 3: play good defense. The cavs should make the celtics settle for jump shots, because everyone has known how dominant the celtics are in the paint.
Three keys for boston is number one: play good defense on lebron. I have not seen lebron james struggle as he has in Boston. In games one and two lebron james only made one jump shot as the celtics did not allow lebron much in the paint.
Number two: Ray Allen making shots. Ray allen needs to knock down big threes and score more Allen had zero points in game one has not been doing much on offense and the celtics are hard to stop when he gets it going.
Number three: quiet the cavs crowd early. it is hard for a team to quiet a home crowd early but when you get on a quick run there is almost no energy in the arena; that can become a happy tune for a road team.
I think the cavaliers will force a game 7 becuse their other home games in this series have been phenomenal. They play great defense, lebron has good games, and his teammates have strong performances and Cleveland is hard to beat when they do those things
