@@chrisuncleahmad666 why would Miami have honecourt? They both finished with the same record and they both went 1-1 against each other in the season Whats the other tiebreaker?
Shaq even in his first season in Miami in 04-05, still lost to Detroit in game 7 at Miami, his 2nd straight season ending loss to the Pistons, in the 2005 Eastern Conference Finals.
And because of this game 7 result and also because of the Western Finals result, instead of a Suns-Heat Finals in 2005, or even one of the Suns or Heat making the Finals, we got stuck with a Spurs-Pistons Finals. Spurs-Pistons 2005 Finals is the equivalent of the Yankees-Marlins 2003 World Series (we wanted Cubs-RSOX World Series or at least one of them 2 making it to the World Series)
@@TheSands83Not me. I DESPISED those Spurs and Pistons for turning the beautiful game into an unwatchable scrum. That Finals made me stop caring about the NBA for years.
Spurs Heat almost met way back in 2005 🔥
Miami would have had homecourt

Rasheed Wallace was huge in this game. Rasheed was as talented as any PF maybe ever. He just didn't always play up to his superstar capability.

Beat them in 2006 though
@@TheSands83 Yes, them being taken to seven the year before helped them get over the Pistons hump in 06.

And the Suns lost 4-1 to the Spurs so they had no chance, especially when Joe Johnson was hurt. At least this series went to game 7.
I loved that series tbh. I’m a fan of defense n each basket means more
@@rooseveltdarbey9493Shaq vs Duncan would have been fine. Instead we got a snoozer of a series
