Nervous about game 6

Tonight could be the last game for the Pistons. It could also mean the end of Larry Brown's tenure as coach and the end of two remarkably successful seasons. The past two years have been really fun to watch. I especially enjoyed last year's victory over the Lakers. But this year's championship run has validated that last season was not a fluke. The Pistons are good, very good and will be that way for at least a couple more years regardless of who the coach is.

As for game 6, I have heard a lot about how Detroit plays best when their backs are against the wall. Well tonight they must prove it. The Pistons must improve on covering the 3 point shooters especially if Horry gets hot again. They also need to figure out a way to keep Parker and Ginobli out of the lane. If they can do that I think it will be another close game and come down to who executes their offense most efficiently in the last few minutes. My prediction is Detroit will win 88-84.
