Spurs Prevail in Game 5

Up 3-2 the San Antonio Spurs are feeling confident preparing to head back home to clinch the NBA title. The Pistons will have their say in the matter, unwilling to fall victim in Game 6. Tim Duncan came off a much improved shooting performance last night, scoring in double figures while grabbing 19 rebounds. That's impressive for the Finals. With the game extended into overtime, everyone knew it was going to be close. Robert Horry's big time three with under 6 seconds to go sealed the victory. Look for Rip Hamilton and Chauncey Billups to emerge as the top scorers for the remainder of the series for Detroit. Rasheed Wallace will have need to keep a cool head, playing controlled basketball while Big Ben continues to display his defensive prowess and have huge rebounding games. Coaches, Greg Popolvich and Larry Brown's strategies may become similar, but they'll both look to pull out a sneaky strategy late in the game to give their team an edge. This has definitely been a thrilling series to watch and it can only get better.
