Congratulations Hornets and Warriors (as predicted) for your first SSBA final appearance. I knew the Hornets could do it but by no avail I thought they could take 3 on the Nets home court (after losing 5 at home all year the Nets now entertain a 7-5 playoff home record while losing the first game at home in all 3 series, wow !). Perfect games, you earned every bit of the finals appearance. But all that probably wouldn't have been enough if Pettit stayed healthy. (Still, that game 4 amazes me and shows what the Nets are capeable of: a HUGE triple double (13 ass?) from Emeka, 10 blocks from Samy, 49 from Pettit, 28/12 from Lord, 55% as a team on the road against the Hornets D.  ) And more props to the Grizz for going that far, nearly pulling off another upset. Great great season. But Dirk wouldn't be denied. I'm glad for the Warriors to finally make it, they had to endure their share of injury problems in recent years as well. Plus they are one of the nicest GMs around here, always friendly, always a good talk. Great that's rewarded too. How important is the Dirk factor? Just look at Deng, who might be the next star, getting 39 one game and 9 the next. Dirk would NEVER get 9 points, even if his shooting % have dropped he is just pure consistency. Thats what true stars do. Finals winner: Hornets. I have to stick with my East superiorty prediction here. They are just so good from 1 to 5 and nobody can stop Yao. |

i think the hornets are the favs because they have the ability to stop Dirk. It would be fun to see Yao against Dirk at Sf but i guess it would give the warriors an advantage.

The coolest finals in a long time. Really glad for both GM's, they deserved it.
I'll take the Hornets in 6. Their frontcourt is just too much for Warrirors to handle.

I actually don't match up well with the Warriors. I am more geared defensively towards playing a team that tries to score inside at the PF position. Podkolzine really does well against pretty much anyone he faces there (it was actually Podkolzine who started at PF and played so well against Okafor.) I don't have any answer for Dirk. Last game we played he dropped 50 on Swift  The good thing is that we were 4th in the league in opponent's 3-point percentage. That should help to contain Hinrich and Deng. Yao, my top player, actually struggled a lot against Finley in both regular season matchups. Hopefully he can break out of that and put up some good numbers. I will also look to Radman and Livingston to put up some good outside shooting numbers, since the Warriors were second to last in the league in o3pt%. Homecourt advantage is obviously big for the Hornets. I needed some luck (well, a whole lot of luck) to beat the Nets, and I think it's going to take just as much to beat the Warriors. Good luck Warriors. |

Congrats on making it to the finals Warriors. I am pretty upset that I lost. Even I don't understand how my team was able to step it up and make it this far. I think i'll be keeping my nucleus and just add a few more parts. Good luck to both teams in the finals.

Hornets, should be a great series. In our first game, you had 70 rebounds against my squad. And well Yao has not shot well against Finley (he does not have a huge size advantage), but he averaged 20 rpg in the 2 games... I think if it is a defensive struggle, the Hornets win easily... If it's a scoring fest, the Warriors have a chance... Good Luck, Hornets |

SSBA might be delayed for a day or two. I've had computer problems on the computer that the save is stored (don't worry, the hard drives fine, it's a motherboard issue). I'm going to be working on the computer tonight, and if I can't get it working I'll take the hard drive out, put it in an enclosure I have, and run it from my laptop. So it'll be done either tonight or tomorrow night, depending on how the computer goes.
