Some in the national media are so swept up by James' first trip to the NBA Finals, they are forgetting that the San Antonio Spurs are gunning for their third championship of the decade and fourth in the Tim Duncan era. Game 1 of the NBA Finals begins at 9 tonight at the AT&T Center. "They never talk much about us anyway," Spurs point guard Tony Parker said. "During the whole season, they always talk about Phoenix and Dallas. It's OK with us. I think we like to be in that position because it makes us keep working hard and keep improving. "It's normal they're going to talk about LeBron. It's his first Finals. People have a tendency to always like new stuff, and it's his first Finals, so I think it's normal. But when the Finals start, we'll see who's the best team. I'm very happy for Cleveland. They deserve it. It's going to be an exciting Finals, and we'll see what happens." Duncan, perhaps the league's top big man, said the Spurs have other things on their plate than to worry about the hype. "It doesn't matter to us," he said. "It's great. It's wonderful for the NBA. It's wonderful for NBA fans. I think there's a lot of hype behind these Finals, and that's great for us, too. We're not worried about who gets the hype or what gets the hype. We're about winning four games."</div> Source: Willoughby News-Herald
I think it should be a good series, but the Cavs have been set up to fail by the media. If they win, they will say it was meant to be. If not, they will focus on their weak links and what LeBron should have done. It will be harsh and unfair, but it will happen (if they lose).
