Chris,
I agree. It's been a home dominated series so far. The Pistons are
getting better (at least at home they were) of stopping the
penetration and pestering the Spurs on the perimeter. They've
stepped up their defensive intensity.
We'll see what happens when they return to San Antonio. The maybe
one of those 7 game series where everyone wins their home games.
I would have never guessed that English was a second language to you
Chris. You write your thoughts and express yourself better than many
folks who call English their only language.
Good luck with your test!
Your vacation plans sound like fun. You must be planning it around
the European holiday weeks? I have a friend in The Netherlands who
spends a few weeks each summer alternating between a home in the
Italian Alps and in southern France. I've always thought it
interesting how folks in Europe rent out their homes for holiday and
then rent other's homes in other parts of Europe. It's something we
don't do here stateside, but it sure makes sense to me.
Regards,
JC
