It was as expected - Wade played the game 7 as a starter; Shaq had a great game; Wade was off in the 4th quarter, trying too hard; the Pistons showed the resilience that won them the championship last year and made them #2 seed this year; the Pistons overcame a 6 point deficit that could have become 8 points in the 4th quarter and won game 7 on the road, and are in the finals.

So my pick Miami does not make it. That’s alright.

But I will still go ahead and make the pick for the finals. San Antonio will win in 6.
