NBA Cup 2005 (Full Table + Zenith Bracket)
Just over a year removed from their improbable victory in the NBA Finals, Detroit shows everyone what they're really made of, holding off the Mavericks to win the Cup. Old foe, New Jersey awaits.
Top 8 Seeds:
(C) Detroit Pistons - 181 Points (2.21 PPG)
Dallas Mavericks - 179 Points (2.16 PPG)
Phoenix Suns - 164 Points (2.00 PPG)
San Antonio Spurs - 164 Points (2.00 PPG)
Miami Heat - 153 Points (1.87 PPG)
Memphis Grizzlies - 148 Points (1.85 PPG)
Denver Nuggets - 143 Points (1.70 PPG)
New Jersey Nets - 139 Points (1.67 PPG)
Note: PPG ties go out to the third decimal, then H2H record in NBA Cup points (3/1/0). A Pistons–Spurs ‘05 Finals rematch and a Steve Nash revenge showdown between Dallas and Phoenix loom as the defining potential moments of the Zenith semifinals.
