Never mind getting the pick wrong because I don't care about that. I just really thought this would be a hell of a fun series. Story lines, good match ups, the stakes are as big as it gets. Grizzlies never figured out a way to combat San Antonio aside from 2 out of 16 quarters. They were never in this. They got dismantled.

Tracy McGrady has made the NBA Finals. So the world is close to ending.
The Grizzlies need a shooter desperately. If you need points you need someone that isn't Tony Allen out there.

Save for 1997, the Spurs have not had a bad season since before David Robinson arrived. Spurs fans have it easy- 50 wins guaranteed, never having to worry about the team screwing up. |

For the sake of an NBA Finals I really want to see, go Heat.
I don't care what the purists say and defense and all this stuff- I can't get behind a potential Spurs-Pacers Finals.
This isn't about ratings or buzz or sexy teams. This is about seeing basketball of the highest-caliber.
Heat-Spurs has 6-7 games written all over it. Pacers-Spurs has 4-5 quick and short series written all over it.

I only wish that we'd be celebrating Finals appearance #8 or 9 instead of merely #5.

@espnstatsinfo
Tim Duncan, Tony Parker & Manu Ginobili are 1st trio on a team other than Celtics or Lakers to reach NBA Finals 4 times together.

Boom, one bad year, first pick, they get Duncan, and it's back to being first and second since. |

The Spurs have been so successful that their "bad" seasons are any season they don't at least make the WCF..... |

I don't know how I would handle it if the Spurs won less than 50 games in a season
