NBA Picks for Thurs. May 29
Another great finish to a great series! Ray Ray finally came to play, KG was a stud again, and Kendrick ate his Wheaties yesterday morning. Can the Pistons send this to a seventh game? I think so. Chauncey finally came out of the bushes, but there could be some concern about Hamilton's status.
Opinion:
SAN ANTONIO +8 (I really looked into this game and just couldn't justify a play here; can the Spurs really go up in smoke in only five games? I think they are worn out at this point but could give the Lakers a run here, keeping it close; I will stay away, though, because the Lakers could roll the Spurs in this one if Kobe comes out strong and then starts to dish to wide open looks by his teammates; I would take the points if I had to, but don't think it's worth the play)
