Didn't think the Spurs would be able to pull it out, but they did. Duncan still has to do everything. The question is whether this Game 2 in the series will result in giving the Spurs more confidence when they head back to the Alamodome, or whether it will serve as a wake-up call to the Lakers team of last year that dominated its way through the playoffs. It's quite clear that the Spurs need more firepower, but if Robinson can get healthy and/or the supporting cast can gain confidence and be clutch from here on out, the best-case scenario here would be a repeat of the first Rockets championship team which was basically Hakeem Olajuwon dominating inside and role players hitting shots from the outside. We shall see.

Already looking forward to the Jars of Clay/Jennifer Knapp/Shaun Groves concert next Tuesday. The first two are among my favorite bands/artists and the latter is a promising newcomer.
