Spurs vs Heat NBA FINALS Thread

[Heatles84]

All in all the Spurs let this get away... The Heat showed their young legs and I have a feeling they will prevail for the same reason... To young and fast... I think the Spurs tried to go all out in the close out and didn't have enough... I also think Parker tried to solidify the Finals MVP and made some bad decisions late in the game as well...

We'll have to see on your former points. But tired legs won't be an issue for the Spurs. This series has been Parker, Duncan, Leonard, Green and Neil for the most part. Only Tim Duncan is the old man for the group.

I thought Parker struggled in this game though. If the Spurs won, Duncan would've been my MVP, he's been the only constant and was the reason the Spurs were in the game. Oh and Leonard has been a beast in this series as well playing solid D, scoring efficiently around 15 PPG and the best rebounder in this series.

Dwade needs to sit on the bench. The difference in the offense and particularly the difference in LeBron when wade sits is mind-numbing. Put LeBron on the court with 3 shooters and birdman and LeBron looks unstoppable. why?

because the floor is finally spaced. It allows for LeBron (the best player in the world) to play to his strengths. Find open shooter and attack the rim.

Suddenly dwade comes in. The offense slows down, and the spurs pack the paint helping off dwade like he is shaq lining up for a 3. The fact that a 32 year old shooting guard has NO jumpshot is NOT acceptable. Dwade hurts this team more than helps. The best two 5 minute stretches for the heat have come with him on the bench in games 2 and 6. He should be playing 25 minutes a night. Because he is causing problems more than solving them.

No sense in blaming refs. The Heat got screwed on calls AGAIN. Glad to see LeBron show why he is so magical and great.

Chalmers 7-11 for 20 points... when you need him most.. he delivers. big moments dont scare him.

Regardless what happens Mario Chalmers should opt out...he gets no respect...

I said this in the second quarter...

Your making yourself look stupid. It wasnt a foul. I dont care what you say. There was NO contact. Bosh had all ball.

ok.

 

[wlk3]

He may not be CP3 or one of those guys but he players hard defensively and knocks down shots...

 

[Kold]

The Spurs screwed up when they didn't go under the p&r's with Lebron. They kept switching and leaving Parker on Lebron.....and lastly, boy it looked like Manu was trying to throw the game. I say that fully sarcastic, but he had so many key mishaps down the stretch of this game

Okay, honest question time.

Everyone accept this premise. Miami wins game 7. Question is, where does this rank on the all-time choke job lists. They had the trophy at courtside. Is this 86 world series all over again?

Except for all those games SA won and Chalmers did jack shit. Guess they weren't big moments. Funny how that works

 

[wlk3]

I suggest looking at the knee to the body around 1:15... That's a foul...

Nothing bigger than an elimination game. Just isnt. This was an actual "must win." not the "must win" bs everyone likes to say about every game.

not a foul. just because people touch doesnt make it a foul. damn.. where were you when i played basketball in high school... i could have scored a ton more. course i would have fouled out every game too.

Whether it is a foul or not ( I will just agree to disagree), the Spurs choked the game away at the end of the 4th. You're not suppose to lose when you're up 5 with 30 seconds to go but when you miss 2 fts and give up 2 off rebounds it happens.

Agree I highly doubt the refs would even call that a foul in the first quarter.....Very minimal contact there

You spewed bullshit and you know it. Don't try to make up for it now by bending words to your liking. Let me clean it up for you. Chalmers is not afraid of big moments. However, he's wildly inconsistent. He may not be afraid, but he's not dependable. He can hit a big shot just as easy as he can dribble off his foot.

 

[wlk3]

I'm no ref but... That is a lot of body... Would you want the call if Bosh was Duncan and that was Ray Allen shooting...?

 

[Flauge]

all this bitching about the refs by the Haters.. yet none of them talk about these stats.

Free Throws:
Spurs 28
Heat 21

Fouls
Spurs 21
Heat 26

Spurs get more free throws and less fouls called on them.. on the road. Yet the refs were for miami

 

[bksballer89]

And its the refs fault the spurs missed 2 fts, allowed 2 OFF REBOUNDS, and allowed 2 Heat 3 PT FGS in the last 30 seconds as well right?

I'm not bitching, nor blaming refs... I said it looked like the Spurs ran out of gas, but facts are facts... That picture shows a foul...
