    I earned so much respect for Detroit. They were one of my favorite teams when I was a kid in the late 80s early 90s. But, being from Texas, I couldn't cheer against San Antonio, they are the heart of Texas and this is one of the best Finals matchups I ever witnessed. Great defense, great fundamentals, great determination from both sides, and came down to the wire at the very end of several games. Hold your head up high Detroit, you were 1 Robert Horry 3-pointer from being back-to-back champs. You showed great determination and poise despite losing this series.

      Larry Brown took a bad Clippers team to the playoffs and then took the Pacers to the brink of the NBA Finals as a number 5 seed. He also coached a 6th seeded Kansas Jayhawks team to a National Championship. He is the perfect coach for teams that feel they have a chip on their shoulder. It's unfortunate that he went to the Knicks. If he stayed in Detroit it's likely they don't fall apart against the Wade, Lebron, and KG and win another NBA title.

    Also, this was a great time in Basketball. So many great players, role players & 6th mans. There was actual competition & not jumping ship. Rivalries. Even though this was a great Spurs team, I still rank the 05 spurs 3red, behind 2014 Spurs & 2007 Spurs.

      @@LebronJames-bj3yu over-aggressivess was a problem on Chauncey's part. His foul trouble was a problem, but the Sheed and McDyess played the game right. They were doing their best to bottle up the greatest pf of all time. In a road playoff game, you're gonna get called for more, but you gotta do what you gotta do.
      It was actually a major coaching blunder sunk them in the 3rd. Larry Brown outcoached himself by taking McDyess out. It's game 7 and he's a bench player. Ideally, you're not expecting to put him back in the game anyway after the 3rd so just let him play it out as long as possible, then throw Sheed back in. Best case scenario, you don't miss a minute with either guy on the floor. Worst case is, you still end up missing them at some point but you gave your team the best chance to win for as long as possible. Instead LB gimped the team defensively for nothing.
      It happens though. Great coaches hurt their teams on the biggest stages just like anyone.

    The Spurs were really a dynasty. They won it all 4 out of 8 years (99, 03, 05, 07) and the years they didn't win it all they were still in contention. They came within a few seconds of winning it all in 2013, then went back in 2014 and utterly destroyed LeBozo and the Heat. Also, I think Duncan-Ginobili-Parker is the best "Big 3" combination in NBA history. They were beautiful to watch.

      The Warriors made 5 Finals with Steph/Klay/Draymond on the team & Kerr as coach (with KD there for 3).
      Lebrons teams played those 2 teams in a combined 7 Finals. So silly the haters hold his team losing to those teams. Harder to dominant when there are 2-3 great teams in the league. Easier to dominant when ur the only 1 (from '92-'98 the Bulls were the only great team.... great teams keep making Finals not just get to 1 or 2).
