Every day during the NBA playoffs, the Triple Threat will break down the latest action as we get closer to awarding the Larry O'Brien Trophy.San Antonio 99, New Orleans 80 Another home win, again by double digits, just like every game in this series. The Spurs extended their season, but still must win on the road in Game 7 in order to keep it going. San Antonio started hot, taking a 12 point lead after the first and keep it into halftime. Unlike other this game this series and year, the Spurs kept it going in the third quarter, giving up just 12 points to put it out of reach. Adding injury to insult for the Hornets, David West left the game in the fourth after reaggravating his back injury. This happened when he was brought down by Robert Horry. As we see here and later, while the Spurs did well, they didn't do themselves any favors in lessening the resentment against them. For Hornets fans and Spurs haters, while they are comforted by the massive home court advantage these playoffs, it would've been much less nerve-racking had the Hornets been able to close it out tonight.

Triple Threat Clip Of the Night
Again, from Odenized, a series of offensive fouls called on the Hornets in the third. Not surprisingly, some are questionable. It doesn't take a skilled lip reader to see how David West feels about it.
Now it's your turn. Discuss tonight's game and preview Friday's games. What will win out in this series: experience or home court? Can the Cavs and Jazz stay alive?
