No Place Like Home
The NBA Finals stand delicately balanced at 2-2 as
we approach Game 5 on Sunday at the Palace at Auburn
Hills, but none of the games so far have been close.
In each game, the home team has stomped the visitors
into the floor, meaning that the Detroit Pistons who
looked so helpless in Texas are now beating their
chests over the prone Spurs, who looked all-conquering
back home. But here's an interesting thing - the line
on Detroit has been dropping all the time. The Pistons
were 4.5 point favorites in Game 3, 3.5 point favorites
last night and now 3 point favorites for Game 5. Is
a Spurs comeback on the cards, or will the Pistons
repeat as Champions for the first time since the Bad
Boys in 1989 and '90? All the NBA action right here,
right now!
