the NBA on ABC

So far there hasn't been a single entirely competitive game in the NBA finals. Every game has been a blowout by the 4th quarter. Who's with me in thinking that if both teams are at their best, there won't be any?

Both the Spurs and the Pistons thrive on defense. Good defense leads to good offense. If one of them were to play at their defensive best, that would give their offense a lot more opportunities. Ergo, only one defensive team can be at its very best. For the series to be closer, both teams have to slack off on defense. If that's gonna happen, Game 5 is as good as any other time.
