Pistons @ Spurs-- Popovich, Brown are close friends; have to respect champ as underdog here, but Spurs are together team, unlike divided Lakers in last year's Finals. With Duncan, Ginobili, SA has best two players- they've got bench guys who contribute, and a quality PG. Home team won both series games this season. Spurs won by 80-77 margin, December 3, as 9-point favorite. Pistons got their revenge 110-101 in Palace on March 20.

Detroit is 5-4 on road in playoffs; with last eight away games staying under total. San Antonio won six of their last eight home games, losing first and last ones. Six of the last eight Spur games went over the total, but clubs they played preferred a faster pace than Detroit will.
