Spurs vs Heat NBA FINALS Thread

[bksballer89]

Should be a great series. Can't see this series being done in anything less than than 6 games.

 

[Kold]

Can't call this one either way yet

In my perfect world it would be Heat in 6

I am sort of glad to play Miami.

The SPURS will be exceedingly rusty after 10 days of sitting around.

If they are going to lose a "rust" game, it is better to lose on the road.

I think San Antonio can hold serve at home. (2-2)

And the winner of game 5 should win the series.

I am saying this game goes to 7 and the clutch team wins OR it is an overwhelming slaughter and goes 5.

Spurs are going to close the Heat out in 5, maybe 6.

Pop was taking notes for sure. Tim Duncan will be active in the post and Tony Parker is playing like the best PG in the league right now. I find the rust thing hard to believe because they have to be at least practicing during all this time. It's not like they can't pick up a basketball.

Heat better bring their A game Thursday. Spurs will bring theirs, I am sure of it.

Everyone is talkn about rust, these guys have been there and done that. No rust here!

[bksballer89]

STARTING LINEUP

Duncan 37
Splitter 28
Leonard 21
Green 25
Parker 31
avg age= 28.4

Haslem 33
Bosh 29
James 28
Wade 31
Chalmers 27
avg age= 29.6

I just hope we don't get the same tired "OLD SPURS" cannot play with the "YOUNG HEAT" argument.

Miami will beat San Antonio if they are better.
Miami will not beat San Antonio because they are younger.

Both teams are a good blend of youth and experience.
But, everyone just assumes Robert Horry, Mike Finley, and Bruce Bowen still play.

It is a pet peeve of mine, nobody pays attention to the new look Spurs.

if we get Dwade from tonight and bosh plays better I think the heat win in 6. If we get the bosh and wade from the first 6 games. then Spurs in 5.

Spurs remind me a lot of Dallas. Great ball movement, unselfish. Those are the teams that are tough for the heat to beat because their whole D is predicated on pressure, quickness and rotations. Only 2 major weaknesses. Big scoring centers (hibbert/duncan) and great ball movement to get open looks. Spurs have both. Their isn't a worse matchup in the NBA for the heat.

Its all gonna come down to dwade's health in my opinion. If he imposes his will on Ginobili the heat are in good shape.

That's because a lot of people who post here don't know much about the actual game of basketball. They are far more worried about they"sins" of LeBron James and the Miami Heat.

Unlike the Bulls and Pacers, the Spurs don't prevent/defend that corner 3 ball as effective as the Heat previous 2 opponents.
