                    [Summary] => NEW YORK — With the best-of-7 Finals tied at two wins apiece, Detroit Pistons assistant coach Phil Ford said yesterday intensity–more than physical play–will decide the outcome of the pivotal Game 5 at the Palace in Auburn Hills this morning (Manila time).


San Antonio drew first blood in the series, taking a 15-point win, 84-69, at home. Then the Spurs made it two in a row with a 97-76 romp, also at the SBC Center. 


Under the Finals format of 2-3-2, the scene switched to Detroit’s homecourt where the Pistons won Game 3, 96-79, and Game 4, 102-71.
