2007 NBA Finals Predictions

The 2007 NBA Finals have arrived and now it’s time to pick your winner. Cleveland went through Washington, New Jersey and Detroit to reach the NBA Finals for the first time in franchise history. San Antonio, once again, went through their competition in Denver, Phoenix and Utah to earn another shot at a championship ring. Lebron James has been getting all of the hype, but that is not necessarily such a good thing for the Cavaliers. San Antonio has stayed under the radar like always. Let us give you a peak at how we think this series will play out.

Here is a quote from Greg Papavich, the San Antonio Spurs’ head coach, “They wouldn’t be in the finals without LeBron, we wouldn’t be in the finals without Tim Duncan,” Spurs coach Gregg Popovich said Sunday. “That goes without saying. But they still would not be in the finals, nor would we, if we didn’t each have our supporting casts. Everybody else has to fit.”

Neither team would have made it without their respective superstars. The biggest difference between these teams is their supporting casts. Cleveland has only one veteran player in Eric Snow that knows what it takes to play well in an NBA Finals series. Snow was on the Philadelphia 76ers when they lost to the Lakers in the NBA Finals a few years back. If Cleveland has to rely solely on this guy for leadership, they are desperately in trouble. He barely plays and can’t score to save his life. Lebron just doesn’t have the role players to support him in this series like Tim Duncan has. Daniel Gibson had his moment in the spotlight for the Cavaliers, but you can be assured he won’t play nearly as well in this series.

Tim Duncan has guys like Manu Ginobli, Tony Parker and Robert Horry with big-time playoff experience. They all know what it takes to win. Then match that with Michael Finley, a guy who hasn’t even smelled a championship but is playing like a superstar. Finley would give up a lot for a championship ring right now and he is playing possessed. The Spurs just have too many weapons and play better defense than any other team in the league. That is a deadly combination and shows why they keep making return appearances to the NBA Finals. Fabricio Oberto is playing his best ball of the season and will be a big difference maker, matching Zydrunas Ilgauskas every step of the way.

Cleveland could win a few home games in this series, but our 2007 NBA Finals Predictions will be backing the San Antonio Spurs. The Cavs will most likely win a couple home games, but there is no chance that Cleveland steals one from San Antonio on the road. This is a big factor as to why we are taking the Spurs to win the 2007 NBA Finals. San Antonio is 32-16 on the road this season while Cleveland is a mere 25-24 away from home. San Antonio will win at least one road game in this series to put away Cleveland before a 7 th game even comes into play. Take the Spurs to win in 6 games.
