nice writting IC, magic's nelson predicted a guranteed win in detroit, lets see what happens. the spurs had faced the similar situation where they lost road games and hold serve then came back and win away game the past couple of seasons, like 2004/2005 they lost to sonics twice on the road then came back to win away in game 6, then the same season in the final lost to the pistons twice on the road then won in game 5. similar things happened during 2005/2006 season when they faced the kings and the mavs, so if they ever going to win an away game in the series, it is going to be this one IMO.

and BTW what do you think of the phillies vs brave game? i really like the philles in this spot, they finally back home from a OK road trip, facing a braves team that just had a double head the day b4, a pitcher just making his 3rd appearance this season, first time on the road, teixeira is doubtful for this game, not to mention the braves really struggle on the road. i sense a decent value on philles RL here.
