2008 NBA Playoffs - Day Twenty-Seven - May 15

Here at About.com, we'll be following each day of the 2008 NBA Playoffs - nothing too in-depth with these posts, but a bit of a recap that gives a couple of brief sentences or so, the final results, as well as links to the boxscore.

New Orleans Hornets 80, San Antonio Spurs 99 @ San Antonio / Box Score

The Spurs, in a win or go golfing situation, showed why they're known for their play in the postseason - "dirty" or not. Other than the Spurs winning to keep alive in the NBA Playoffs, the big news during this game is Robert Horry's crunching pick on David West, who did not have a good game at all and left afterwards. It was reminiscent of Horry's play on Steve Nash last postseason that led to the suspension of Amare Stoudemire that turned the tide in the Spurs' favor. Will it this time? Series tied 3-3.p>
