<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">It's almost over. The Pistons' attempt to repeat as NBA champions will end in San Antonio -- one way or another. Either by some remarkable display of effort they'll win two games in Texas and return to Michigan with an improbable title captured on the road, or they'll fall a game or two short of their second straight championship. Game 6 is 9 tonight at the SBC Center. The Pistons are 0-10 in their past 10 games at San Antonio. Something will have to give, though, if the Pistons can win tonight and force Game 7. The Pistons are 10-0 in closeout games since 1999, upending the likes of New Jersey, Indiana and Miami in the past two seasons. The Spurs hold a 3-2 edge in the Finals after Sunday night's 96-95 victory in overtime at the Palace. A victory tonight would give them their second championship in three seasons and third in seven years. "A friend of mine called me this morning and reminded me about the Red Sox," Pistons coach Larry Brown said Monday. Last fall, Boston fell behind the Yankees, 3-0, in the American League championship series and won four straight, including the last two at New York. "They had to go in that stadium and win two," Brown said of Yankee Stadium. "They weren't the defending champs, so I'm confident our guys will show up and play our best game. "You have to look at it as a great opportunity."</div> Source
I love how the Red Sox are now known for the greatest comeback ever, but I'm already sick of coaches bringing it up to fire up their team.
