Default Spurs vs. Heat

Who's going to win???

My buddy and I are in formal discussions to throw $400 each US on the Spurs to take down the champs.

Anyone want to recommend a site that a) accepts neteller, b) is fairly quick with cashouts, and c) has a sweetass deposit bonus .

Edited: Ok, so I got unlazy and checked and apparently betjamaica is the best. How do these deposit bonuses work on these sites? Do I get it right away or do I have to wager a certain amount of money? I was going to drop $1K in there for a $200 bonus, do I have to wager the entire $1K or something??? Any help before the series starts would be appreciated boys.

what are you smoking?

the pistons are nothing more than san antonio lite, and they will get absolutely creamed by the spurs. did you see what they did to the suns? manu ginobli/tony parker are both emerging as stars in this league, and they're forming one of the most dynamic backcourts in the NBA. detroit doesn't stand a chance... they barely got past a limping miami.

I like the Spurs in 5, possibly 6. Pistons are in trouble in virtually every match-up.

LOL, emerging as stars??? What kind of crack are you smoking there junYun? Ginobli WAS an all-star this year, and Parker must be a star, his girlfriend is smoking hot.

Edited to add the smiley for the effect.

being an "all-star" is a little different (although i know it sounds dumb to say) than being a "star" in this league. manu is definitely still only "emerging" ... hell he comes off the bench.

What they did to the Suns has no relevance here as the Pistons and the Suns couldn't be more different. The Spurs and the Heat are much more similar than the Pistons-Suns and at this time of the year it's defense that wins championships and no one plays better D in the league than Detriot. Ben Wallace and Rasheed Wallace will handle Duncan and Prince and Rip will handle Ginobli and Parker.

Pistons in six.

I got Spurs in 6...

They are an amazing team that gets zero respect.

Tim Duncan is one of the best players in the NBA but alot of people dont put him up there because he isnt 'flashy' or 'cool', he just wins championships.

I too have the Spurs in 6.

Defense wins championships, yes, but you also need to be able to score. Spurs are more balanced combining both aspects.

Ginobli- One day will be the best player in the league. Buddy already has a gold medal. Given his numbers this year and post-season, he is a star. And yes, he does once again start.

Duncan- Look up the word consistency in the dictionary, and this guy's picture is there.

Parker- I think he is a little overrated to be honest (at this point in his career), but is still one of the better point guards out there, and may one day be the best.

I don't think we'll be seeing a repeat this year. The Pistons have no bench which doesn't look good considering the Spurs have a far superior starting 5.

uhm "defense wins championships" are you guys retarded...the spurs are BETTER defensively than the pistons. ginobli and duncan are going to maul the spurs offensively... and every spur can play good lockdown D on his man.

The spurs= the patriots in football... all they do is bore people, have people say they arent good enough, etc and win championships.

Doesn't help that no one on the Pistons can get to the rack, their shot selection last night was horrid.
