    <u>Why Them?</u>
    Ray Allen is the leading scorer on the Sonics and they need to him to score for them to win tonight. Bruce Bowen's job is to shut down Allen. With these two going at it on offense and defense, it should be interesting to watch. Ray Allen made the matchup evem more heated after making quotes such as, "If the NBA were professional wrestling, Bruce Bowen might be its most highly paid performer. In pro wrestling, the premium pay often goes to the villains." He has also mentioned in the past that Bowen plays "sissy basketball". This should be a very good mathcup and I can't wait to see how it plays out.

    Real quick. Rashard Lewis is likely out for the game. The Sonics need their fans to give them energy to extend this series. So far the home team has not lost in the series yet. The Sonics bigmen need to stay out of foul trouble in this game, and the Sonics have to do a better job of defending dribble penetration. Last game Manu and Parker got into the lane far too, often.

    Yeah I saw that Rashard wasn't playing my bad. After seeing this, I am almost positive the Spurs will win.
