You are absolutely right. No more Mighty, which is good, but it’s hard to break old habits. Well Lebron is really stepping it up now after being critisized in the first two games. Looks like he’s trying to prove a point!

FYI they’re the Anaheim Ducks (no “mighty” anymore). They were probably sick of the connection to the movie.

I think that you’re on about the Spurs beating the Jazz (especially now at 3-1 in the Spurs’ favor).

I hope that LeBron does his thing. He’s fairly impressive every game, but his teammates have been slacking. In response to Matthew Jabs comment, I’m glad that the Pistons don’t show up some of the time because I’m not a Pistons’ fan. And one of these days it’s going to seriously bite them in the butt. Okay it already did last year, but I want it to happen again.

My take on the Stanley cup finals is a bit different…I think that Ottawa has just one productive line….Alfredson, Spezza, Heatly. It’s the best and most productive line in the palyoffs by far, but they get NOTHING from the other lines. It hasn’t mattered to Ottawa yest because nobody has been able to stop the ASH line. But I think the Ducks have the defense to do it…they’ll throw the 2 best NHL best defensemen, Pronger and Niedemeyer, at the ASH line and get them under control. If Ottawa can’t generate offense from their other lines, they will be in serious trouble.

I watched the Pistons game last night…it was very exciting. However, as a Pistons fan I’m a little concerned. Why? Did you watch last years Pistons/Cavs series? Stones were up 3-0 & barely won the series in the 7th game. LeBron can be a very scary opponent, especially in Cleveland.

The Pistons had a hard enough time beating the Cavs in D-town…will they be able to trump them in Cleveland? Here’s my prediction. In true Piston fashion, they’ll lose the next two games…because, as they put it, “We just weren’t doing what we do.” I’m so sick of hearing that.

Why do they have to have their backs against the wall before they come out & play with heart? Anyone who watches the Pistons frequently knows that there are two Piston teams. The good Pistons & the bad Pistons. There’s no in between. They either show up or they don’t & it’s getting old.

Don’t get me wrong, I love the team & they’re awesome, but that part of it gets so frustrating from a fans perspective.

Oh yeah…Wings blew it this year, so I’m hoping the Stones step up & put the Cavs away in the next two games (although my prediction is that it will take 7 to bring LeBron to his knees).
