Okay... It is here... Tonight... The NBA Finals... Game 1... LA Lakers vs The Detroit Pistons...

Although I terribly want the Lakers to lose, I know they wont. In fact, I believe if they do not sweep, they will take it in 5.

Remember, this LA Team was compiled with 4 great super stars just to win the championship... Although they had their ups and downs during the course of the season, they are doing what they were bought together to do... I truly feel we have not even seen them play to their potential yet... And I am also pretty sure that when they do win, Phil Jackson is saying bye... Then the rebuilding begins...

I truly hope the Pistons win, but I am not holding my breath... again I hope Detroit does prove me wrong...

I know we also have the Playoff thread, but the Playoffs are over.

The Finals are here, and although I do not want them to, LA will WIN.

Like I said, I dont want to be right and I want LA to lose... and I must say as I am watching the game and it is now the 3rd Quarter I am pleasantly suprised and I hope Detroit does prove me wrong!!!

Great gameplan by Larry Brown: let Kobe and Shaq do all the scoring and clamp down on the "role" players. And surprisingly, the referees were pretty good in this game. They even called Shaq for a 3 second call, which he does every single time.

The series is FARRRRRRR from over, though.

yup, good game calls today.. they were doing their post game announcements and they were saying the reason why they lost is because they were rusty, because they were resting for so long. pffft

yes the series is far from over, i just wish pistons, especially Big Ben would stop shooting those wild shots because he can't make THEM! sheesh, that was what i think 6 - 10 extra points pistons could have had if wallace didn't try and make those "good looking" shots. every basket counts, lets make em!

Pistons will sweep :D

I Am Glad the Pistons proved me wrong, I truly am...

but heed the quote...

and remember back to just 2 rounds in the playoffs, Spurs had a 2-0 lead on LA.

Also remember to 3 years ago in the finals, Larry Brown's team at the time also won the first game of the Finals...

I really do hope Detroit wins, more than anything I do, but just as the quote says, it is indeed FARRRRRRRRRR from over

    • Nearly 70% of Steam users now run Windows 11

      By NextGen_Gamer · Posted

      Along with that and very unfortunate for Linux, the AI boom/tariffs/global supply chain instability really destroyed any chances of it getting a decent chunk of market share. By all accounts, if a Steam Deck was still available for $399 (with tons of alternatives releasing at $500-$800 - instead of $1500+ now) and the Steam Machine was out there for $499, I think a lot of people WOULD have been willing to try SteamOS and switch away from Windows. But yeah, with the crazy jacked up prices now, people have to make safe bets with their money.

      Neowin hasn't been covering the Ladybird browser but it has been posted about on a lot of tech and Linux/open source sites. I have been following the effort myself for almost a year now. Cloudflare and Proton are among their sponsors. You can read the why here--> https://ladybird.org/#about

      That's really the user's problem, not the developers. It's not like the Windows 10 EOL was a surprise. Once a product goes out of support, you have to understand YOU are owning the risk of running it - the rest of the world will move on, maybe you'll be OK, maybe you'll be OK for a while, maybe you'll have an issue.... But you can't expect devs to write or certify software for dead operating systems.

      Not mentioned in this blog post is that Linux has now dropped for 2 months in a row. At a hight of 5.33% in March, then 4.52% in April and now 3.99% in May. I suspect the end of Windows 10 got a bunch of people to try Linux, fueled by all the Microsoft hate, and rabid social media push of that....and now they are going back to Windows 11 because of the normal Linux issues. The vast majority of PC gamers want to use their computers to game and not trouble shoot why a game wont work, or half work.
