Sweep

It was just as I expected. A clean sweep. Spurs win. In your face, I so told you so. Of course , I did not really enjoy the series. I expected the win but the way it came was too fast. I mean this is the NBA Finals we are talking about. The two "best" teams in the league. Yet the cavs could not even register a single victory. The series was so loop-sided. I mean I wanted some sort of close fight. I like the score being something like 4-2 or 4-3. A clean sweep? Yikes. Totally wasted. I guess that from this series at least Mr Lebron can take some deep playoff experience. That can be the only good thing that can come out of the series for the cavs. Anyways, let take out the champagne and relax spurs.

Horry got his seventh ring. Oh my. All came as a player. I feel that he deserves it lor. He may be a major player but he does all the little things that coaches love. I think all teams would want somebody like him. Can score, board, take charges ad hit those big shots. What more can you ask from a man! Haha, all I can say is Horry please please do not just retire. Play like for one or two more years. I am so looking forward to seeing you next season

When the Spurs come parading to town, where will you be?

First of all, I am utterly disgusted that the Pistons lost all of their final 4 games after building an early lead. I was hoping for a perfert final between the Pistons and the Spurs. Their were the teams I had believed deserved the spot. But of course, nothing is expected. So move on Cavaliers.

I now totally now believe that the Spurs will win the title this year. The Spurs have too much spark and swagger around them to lose the series. They were carefully built over a number years together with a winning coach, Gregg Popovich. The Spurs built a winning team and just added a couple of fresh legs each year.

Whilst the Cavaliers were built only recently and do well when their superstar, Lebron James, is in the zone.

Both teams have deep benches but I believe that the Spurs bench is deeper because of their playoff experience. Now people can argue that the Spurs bench is old and ageing but I think because they are older does not nessary mean they are worse off. I believe its better because as older athletes, they would know and are expected to know how to maintain their bodies better.

Furthermore, the Spurs have the playoff experience. They have won the title 3 times in the last 8 years. Whilst for the Cavaliers, it is their first final appearance.

In conclusion, a 4-1 Spurs win. I hope I guess correctly. Man I have too many miss this season.

P.S: Thanks Gabriel for the jersey. Could not have done it without u.
