Don't worry, the Spurs have 2 out of the next 3 at home. That's home court advantage and that's all you need in the NBA. Honestly, I think the Spurs will win the next 2 games, regardless. The Lakers have played their best ball, the Spurs obviously haven't.

Expect Mr. Duncan to get about 25 points and 15 rebounds tomorrow and Kobe will have a tough shooting night. Spurs win and go up 3-2.

Go Timberwolves!!! :D

Detroit battled New Jersey into triple overtime, but couldn't keep up in the final stanza of a 127-120 loss in Game 5 on Friday. Chauncey Billups, who forced the first OT with a 3-pointer from nearly half-court, finished with a game-high 31 points for he Pistons. Game 6 is set for 8 p.m. Sunday in New Jersey (TNT).

Pistons look like they are going to win.. my prediction = Pistons/Wolves final...

this was the most amazing game yet, i have never seen a starter player (jason Kidd) and at that a star player who played 43 minutes leave the game with 0 points, NONE, NADA, ZILCH!!!

now, it's time to to put jermain o'neal in his place (the floor) and artest given the hand (swat).

i predict the pistons will win the series in 6 games.

Too much faith in the pistons Vice! :p

The Pacers have won 4 out of the past 7 games they have played against the pistons (over the last 2 years). Thats more than half... It is only right to let the Pacers have lucky number 5.

And the way Jermaine's eye is messed up, if he misses that game and still wins, that is awesome. But if we lose, it's because of him. j/k. I think Artest is gonna put up a damn good fight for your pistons though...

May the best team win! ;)

oh man :wacko: i saw his eye on an interview.. but didn't see how it happened, did he get hit?

i havn't studied/watched enough pacers game to come up with any intelligent arguements, like how much their defense sucks for example :p ;)

my team will win, only becuase i wear the same Pistons shirt everyday! i only take it off to wash it.

i was ****ed because refs were giving indy the game :angry:

alot of bad calls, but the pistons survived. Prince & Rip saved the day

i went crazy when they called the blocking foul on Prince, that was so stupid.. and then i was left speechless when they called double dribble on Chauncy.

3 more games.. all i want to see is Detroit beat the Lakers like they did 14-15 years ago.

Wolves need to tie it up tonight or they are done IMHO...

Damn glad the Pistons are up 2-1, but I do predict this series might indeed go to all 7...

Pistons / Lakers would be a damn good Finals simply based on the Nostalgia, but I really want LA to go DOWN...

well the lakers should wrap up the series tonight... damn shame, but you have to say they should win considering the players they do have on their team... and man the pacers handed it to the pistons last night, i hate to say it but thats not a good sign for detroit... i do want them to win since i still hate reggie miller for his 8 points in 12 seconds against my team the knicks...

i also hate to say it. but whoever the lakers do play in the final, they will finally turn it on as a unit and sweep. :argh:

      Dude, it's a .reg away from a permanent modification. If you're a power user, look it up and keep the .reg and stop being a crybaby expecting MS to include customization for everything on a generalist OS. The default is what's the best UX for the majority of the userbase, non techie people.

    • Studio MDHR reveals Cuphead sequel and an 8-bit platformer spin-off

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Studio MDHR reveals Cuphead sequel and an 8-bit platformer spin-off by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Studio MDHR has been rather silent about its next major gaming project since the release of Cuphead back in 2017. However, that ended today during the Summer Game Fest presentation, with the studio revealing not one but two project announcements. First, the studio confirmed that it is currently in the middle of developing a brand-new Cuphead game, bringing back the iconic characters for another adventure. Just like the last game, this is slated to be a fully hand-animated endeavor. This also means there isn't a release date attached to it yet. “Craftsmanship is at the heart of everything we do here at Studio MDHR,” says co-founder Chad Moldenhauer. “When it came time to peel back the curtain and share a little bit about what we’ve been up to, we couldn’t imagine a more fun way to do so than with today’s Special Bulletin. The studio is working on this new Cuphead with help from Toronto’s Stop Motion Department and Continue Agency. At the same time, Studio MDHR also revealed that another part of the team has been working on a different Cuphead installment. Dubbed the Mighty Cuphead Adventure, this is taking a different art direction to the original. "In true Studio MDHR fashion, this game goes beyond just taking inspiration from the classics of the 1980s… it is actually built with technology of the era," the studio explained. "That's right: Mighty Cuphead Adventure is programmed in assembly language and designed with the exacting specifications of the Sega Master System home gaming console in mind." Aside from releasing on PC and modern consoles, Mighty Cuphead Adventure will even be playable on the 1985-released Sega Master System. A release date has not been announced just yet.
