Duncan-less and Shaq-less NBA Finals 2008 ?

Hey guys, here's an interesting NBA trivia. Do you know that after Michael Jordan and Chicago's Bulls won their last title in 1998, every finals has featured either Tim Duncan or Shaquille O' Neil. Duncan and O'Neil can play against each other in the Finals because both are playing for Western Conference teams.

How about this season? Do you think it's time to see a new NBA Finals without either Duncan or Shaq?

Well, maybe if the Celtcs-Lakers rivalry will be revived once again, that could be it.

I'm a die hard suns fan from california...i know makes no sense huh?

But I disagree. I think that in the end it's gonna be lakers celtics.

Then again the playoffs is always full of surprises so we never know.. isn't that the reason why steve kerr took in shaw in the first place? so that he could help them in the playoffs in the long run!

Buttt the lakers are too strong,....pau gasol, bynum, kobe, fisher...

let's get ready to watch the first game without duncan or shaq...

but regardless of who makes it...

SUNNSSS BABYYY!

You'll probably see Shaq because the suns are pretty good. It will be the suns and the celtics or Pistons. Its kind of like the Spurs are the Patriots of the NBA except no cheating scandals.
I'm a Suns fan (former phoenician) and have now been on the Celtics bandwagon (currently living in boston). I would love to see these guys go at it! But that would mean another finals game with Shaq.
Wow, I never noticed that. Yeah, it could be this year, but you can never count out the sours and the suns are starting to get it rolling. I think the celts or wizards will be in the championship though.
spurs and cavs agian! rematch time!
Great thought. The reason for them 2 being featured in every Finals (since Jordan) is because they're the 2 best players of this decade. Both of these guys got multiple titles %26amp; multiple MVPs to match them!
Don't count either one of those players out yet. The Suns are starting to click and are only 1/2 game out of the best record in the Western Conference. The Spurs are, well, the Spurs. They seem to know how to turn it on come playoff time. So, it isn't unlikely that you may get one of them back in the Finals again.
Either of them will feature in the final again, if not I would like to see Lakers versus Piston. I have a feeling the Celtics are not gonna be there.
Yeah, it looks like neither of them are going to be in the Final this year. Maybe Duncan, but not Shaq.
