It all comes down to a financial decision.. They could win this next game at the Cavs gym, and sweep the finals..., or they can lose the game.. meaning they get one more game at home... meaning lots more revenue.......... With that being said.. I think they will intentionally lose game four.. It is all about the money these days!!

I thought the same thing when the Astros were in the world series........ Didn't happen -
They would have to lose 2 in a row to see the next home game here in SA. I hope they stomp Cleveland in game 4 so we can all 'witness' the sweep.

I can see how that scenario is logical. I could almost believe it if it weren't for the Spurs team themselves....they are too classy to throw a game. The organization will reap huge financial benefits just from winning the world championship, as will the individual players. I just can't see them tanking a game and giving the Cavs even a glimmer of hope.
Having said that, watch them come out tonight and stink up the place. If they do....I'll still think it's not purposely throwing a game.Comment

Spurs already taste blood,and will finish it off tonight,they still have 2 more games out in Cleveland,so I don't see them wanting to drag it out away from home,Yep-I'm certain they will finish the kill tonight!Comment

I didn't realize there were two more away games... With that being said, I bet they win tonight as well.. Go Spurs!Comment

It's confusing. All the other rounds are 2-2-1-1-1 and the finals are 2-3-2.
The league uses the excuse that they don't want all the press to have to travel and change hotels 5 times if it goes 7 games
I think it also is in hope that the underdog can extend the series on it's home floor, but the league denies it.
I think the Spurs just want to win 4 and come home and will give it their all to clinch it tonight.Comment

They would never throw a game. You never know what could happen after that. However, it is also very hard to win the close out game as the other team is desperate. I thought they would lose game 3. I hope they close it out tonight but it would not surprise me if Cleveland gets the win only to be destroyed in game 5.Comment

The difference between the Mavs last year and the Spurs any year...when you have another team down, you don't let them up, you put your boot on their throat until they're done. Their style may not be pretty basketball, but bottom line is, it works.
Spurs win tonight, and take another step towards a Duncan career where he will earn a championship ring for every finger.Comment

after tonight it will be back to full time stadium construction watching
don't look now but the Rangers have a chance to go 20 games under .500 tonight <ouch>
Now that he Tour de France is so tainted, this is the roughest part of the sports calendar for me.Comment

It's such a mismatch, I'm not sure the Spurs could throw the game if they tried.Comment

you're right AW. the spurs are gonna bring it back to san antone just for the revenue.
the only sport left that isnt rigged is nascar. krap then how do they explain earnhardt jr.
i'm strictly gonna watch high school sports. the only true arena where people still want to play. well unless you count the texans because there's no way you can cheat when you're that bad.
