It's a rematch of two great basketball cities.
San Antonio versus Detroit for all the marbles in the basketball realm.
Oh wait. It's the WNBA Finals, not the NBA Finals.
Nevertheless, it's basketball; it's for a championship; it's at a time where two cities need to be on top of the sports realm just for a moment.
The San Antonio Silver Stars will be taking on the Detroit Shock tomorrow night in a best of five match up that may not look the same on paper but it has all the earmarks of a matchup that the men had three years ago when the Spurs took on the Pistons in their best of seven series.

A new theatre will be located where the old McCreless Mall used to be. H.E.B. is a part of the new area now.
