Pistons. Spurs.

Sweeeet.

Looks to be a very, very good one.

The key? Who wants it more. The teams just about cancel each other out, with the obvious exception of Tim Duncan. But he appears in this year's finals without fellow big man David Robinson, and that could be crucial in a seven game series.

Yes, Spurs fans--you are quite welcome here. I've long admired Duncan as one of the greats of the game. Unlike Alonzo Mourning--have fun practicing the golf swing, buddy.

Hey, I even like Shaq--certainly far more than his former teammate, Fahrenheit 9 for 37.

However: the first person who talks about the Heat's injuries is going to draw my unrefined ire.

Other than that, have at it.
