Thoughts so far:

1.) Manu takes a knee to his thigh (causing a thigh contusion) — something to watch, especially considering Manu’s game is largely based upon quickness and his ability to control himself while on the ground (as well as, in the air).

2.) Fouls — I know I’ve commented on this before, but watch something. When San Antonio fouls someone, its ticky-tack or basically a weak foul. When Detroit fouls someone, it would snap a non-Titan of the Earth (aka Basketball players) in half. Detroit is out to remind people that THEY are the champions, no one else.

More news later…

Updated:
At end of first quarter, San Antonio 27, Detroit 21.

Another thought: Eva Longoria is hot.

Another Update: 9:53 — Tim Duncan gets T-ed up! Alright, this is where I officially have no idea what the referees are doing. I’ve replayed the foul on Tivo 14 times now, and STILL don’t see it. These refs are on crack. (go ahead, Commish! Fine me, I dare you!)
