Game blog: Spurs vs Thunder game 6 -OKC on their way to their 1st Finals

[100%duncan]

Refs just ended our season. Well, can't do anything about that.

[baseline bum]

Shouldn't this be free throws?

[OKC Thunder fan]

Man I'm sorry guys. Refs seriously are fucking this game up. In like 2 mins no one has made any points. Wtf

[loveforthegame]

Hate Fisher.

[spursfanincolorado]

Fisher is Left handed - why go to his right>?

[Kidd K]

The only way we can win and overcome the refs is to shoot all jumpers and shoot 100%.

[Shastafarian]

lol Ibaka hooked Duncan's arm so blatantly but no call.

Not Without My Daughter can wink and kiss all he wants.

[Quiet Strength]

Why hasnt sjax gotten anymore 3's

[phxspurfan]

Why is he left open so much wow

[Bulwark]

of course

[loveforthegame]

Over. Oh well.

[RashoFan]

damn

[Spurs Brazil]

fuck fuck fuck

[Darius Bieber]

Get those lucky ass shots out of here.

[ShoogarBear]

Dammit, Tim you have to hit the and-1s.

[noles1983]

when will this thunder luck run out?

[100%duncan]

Those 5 points cost us game. That's it really. Our guys won this until refs fucked us.

[Kidd K]

Folks, that intentional hacking foul on Duncan was the first beneficial call we've gotten in 19 minutes. Check the play by play.

[DPG21920]

They aren't missing big shots

[Horry Hipcheck]

And now OKC is telling the refs they don't need the help anymore. Harden and Fisher 3 pointers are the icing on David Stern's cake.

[Bulwark]

well they're hitting the big shots...

[Budkin]

The refs took this game from us

[spursfanincolorado]

Harden - doesn't miss much

[Bill_Brasky]

And now they're gonna call the game fair down the stretch to try and make everyone forget. And of course OKC's gonna hit some 3's when they haven't been having to work for anything.

[AztecSpur]

Im pullin my hair out with these OKC 3s and Duncan can't make a layup?

We need 3s!!!!!!

[PublicOption]

Please God.


your near death experience should have opened you eyes about the NBA aq little.

[$pursDynasty]

what refs no T on Harden after his 3?

[timvp]

Believe.

[Quiet Strength]

Dammit, Tim you have to hit the and-1s.

yup but now he has to make both free throws.. cant afford to choke anymore than he already has

[Floyd Pacquiao]

classless thunder still making flukey ass shots

[boutons_deux]

Spurs just aren't scoring, must be under 40% for the 2nd half.

[Budkin]

Jackson every possession!!!!!

[Horse]

I've never in all my years watching the nba seen a game so blatantly given to the home team. Fucking incredible. The worst call ever. fuck stern fuck the nba.

[noles1983]

i pray these bitches get humiliated in the finals

[Jumi]

Believe

[Spurologist]

They aren't missing big shots

That Fisher + Harden 3s are killers.

There's still time

[AidanNelson2009]

I'm sick of OKC and their clutch 3's, everytime, it's bullshit!

[Quiet Strength]

Believe.

I believe the refs will not allow the spurs to win this but somehow the spurs have got to :flag:

[$pursDynasty]

I believe!

[OKC Thunderstorm]

Just 3 more solid minutes of play until ecstasy for OKC.
Just 3 minutes away from a Chernobyl meltdown on this site.
Fisher, Harden Durant close this bitch out. Spurs are NOT dead but we can kill them if we stop making dumb passes like Westbrook just did to Durant.

[Kidd K]

And now OKC is telling the refs they don't need the help anymore. Harden and Fisher 3 pointers are the icing on David Stern's cake.

Actually, refs stop fixing games at the end because people tune in to watch. They start the fix early 3rd to mid-late 4th, then stop after they've sufficiantly padded the fixed to win team's lead and demoralized every run the opposing team has tried to make with rampant whistles.

So the game will be called 60/40 now instead of 100/0 in OKC's favor. We might even get more FTAs for our crappy FT shooters like Duncan.

[Josepatches_]

A Harden/Durant's season-ending injury would be fair. Stern deserves it for this shit.

After today oficially I hate the Thunders more than Lakers or Mavs. I never watched a game like this.

[Brazil]

This serie is due for an OT

[MannyIsGod]

The Spurs are right there. They can do this.

[Splits]

Is this the WWE?

[Quiet Strength]

The turning point was whenever the refs started calling bullshit

[DMC]

I've never in all my years watching the nba seen a game so blatantly given to the home team. Fucking incredible. The worst call ever. fuck stern fuck the nba.:cry

[Barfunk]

What started all this was that twighlight zone tech on Jax

[100%duncan]

Accept it guys. Refs killed us. The supposed to be manu and1 and kawhi's 3 killed us. That's just WWE at it's finest.

[AidanNelson2009]

Stern wants OKC in the finals, can't do anything about it when the refs are fucking us over.

[Spurs Brazil]

fuck yoy tony

[MannyIsGod]

It continues.

[Quiet Strength]

Ouch

[Kidd K]

Yet another fuckin call for OKC. Dude.

[DMC]

The turning point was when Duncan was blocked by Ibaka.

[Brazil]

What ?

[Horry Hipcheck]

The Spurs are waist deep in their grave now.

[LakerHater]

Can't play against these refs!!! :bang

[Sa_Spursfan20]

That should do it. God damn it.

[phxspurfan]

FTs 30-18 OKC

[OKC Thunderstorm]

Fisher makes one more HUGE shot before this bitch is over.

[manufor3]

6 point game with about 2 1/2.... we need a miracle

[DBMethos]

Thunder better hope their bullshit shots continue to fall in the finals.

[$pursDynasty]

of course they call that, the refs must think we are the Oakland Raiders we are getting no love

[100%duncan]

And that is a stupid foul.

[Bulwark]

he fucking slipped

[Darius Bieber]

Ugh, it's over now. If there were no bad refs, we'd win by 30.

[wut]

again there was NO FUCKING FOUL

[MannyIsGod]

Holy shit man.

Is this what the Kings felt like?

[spursfanincolorado]

where was the foul?

[BobEX]

Such a great season. Sucks to go out like this, but oh well. Guess it just wasn't meant to be. :(

[Holt's Cat]

:lol yeah, ok that was a foul

[Kidd K]

Just 3 more solid minutes of play until ecstasy for OKC.
Just 3 minutes away from a Chernobyl meltdown on this site.
Fisher, Harden Durant close this bitch out. Spurs are NOT dead but we can kill them if we stop making dumb passes like Westbrook just did to Durant.

Shut up bitch. The refs handed your stupid ass team the last three games on a silver platter.

[Brazil]

TP didn't even touch this fucker

[Quiet Strength]

Jackson needs more 3's what the fuck

[$pursDynasty]

Perkins killing folks w/ picks but no call from blind refs

[OKC Thunderstorm]

Refs?! Are you SERIOUS?

[Brazil]

Die fisher die

[Horry Hipcheck]

And now the Thunder role players just can't miss. Spurs are just stemming the inevitable tide.

[maverick1948]

If we get within 2 I bet they call a foul on us.

[slick'81]

well guys this is it

[100%duncan]

R:lolfs

[Bulwark]

we don't get one fucking call

[TheProfessor]

Wtf is Parker doing? Get it to a shooter!

[Darius Bieber]

If I were the Spurs, I wouldn't even shake hands with these classless Thunder after the game.

[OKC Thunderstorm]

Fisher makes one more HUGE shot before this bitch is over.

:lol
:lmao
:rollin

[Quiet Strength]

I love how parker starts attacking too late

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

Refs are in a groove no stopping dem whistles

[spursfanincolorado]

manu fucking guard Fisher

[RashoFan]

omg, this is killing me...

[noles1983]

Shut up bitch. The refs handed your stupid ass team the last three games on a silver platter.

right, good luck fucker against the heat or celts. Fisher wont be clutch he will go back to sucking ass. your whole team will come back down to reality

[100%duncan]

wtf was that tony?

[$pursDynasty]

didn't need the 3 just a good two

[slick'81]

couldnt get 1

[jiggy_55]

We got robbed.........

[Horry Hipcheck]

Jackson with the most untimely miss of the game.


And Season.

[Bulwark]

that's all she wrote

[DatBoyGood]

wow......:(

[slick'81]

season

[Horry Hipcheck]

Jackson with the most untimely miss of the game.


And Season.

[MannyIsGod]

I'm sorry, but the refs fucking ruined this shit for me.

[Thomas82]

Such a great season. Sucks to go out like this, but oh well. Guess it just wasn't meant to be. :(


I guess not.

[Brazil]

fuckers celebrating with the game not even finished

[Ice009]

Fail pop.

Why not call a fucking timeout.

Fail fucker of a coach.

[DPG21920]

Losing with those calls is not acceptable.

[DAF86]

Well congrats Thunder. Thanks Spurs for a great season.

[Ice009]

Fail pop.

Why not call a fucking timeout.

Fail fucker of a coach.

[Spurs Brazil]

Props to the Thunder

Good luck in the finals

[100%duncan]

I hope referees die tomorrow.

[Bulwark]

oh call a timeout now will you

[Cant_Be_Faded]

would have liked to lose this one by sucking but those first seven minutes of the fourth totally fucked us

[Libri]

Stern has won.

[AidanNelson2009]

we can't hit 3's when they are needed, biggest chokers in history, 2-0 up and we fucked it up, 18pts up in this game and we fucked it up. End of Duncan's era and SJAX's fairytale retunr ends like fucking shittttt

[Brazil]

I love how parker starts attacking too late

at least he started, manu starts shit tonite

[ginobili fan]

Congrats OKC.
Congrats the refs.
Congrats the NBA.
Durant vs James.
1/2

[slick'81]

lol fisher and harden flooping the momentum away from sa

[it's me]

prop to the refs and stern..... well cooked

[Manu20]

This may be anger talking by I'm seriously quitting on the NBA......That 4th quarter....wow

[Ice009]

Why didn't Pop call a timeout.

What the fuck was he thinking???????????

[Darius Bieber]

Someone from the Spurs better say that the reason the Spurs lost were the "refs".

[jiggy_55]

I'm sorry, but the refs fucking ruined this shit for me.

You think?

[007nites]

Fail pop.

Why not call a fucking timeout.

Fail fucker of a coach.

Fuck you

[Ice009]

Why didn't Pop call a timeout.

What the fuck was he thinking???????????

[it's me]

props to the refs and stern..... well cooked

[Jumi]

C'est La Vie!

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Holy shit man.

Is this what the Kings felt like?

At least they had One game to try to redeem themselves


This makes me feel sick

And there's no tomorrow for us either that's what sucks


Wow

[OKC Thunderstorm]

Backdoor sweep.

Kerr: "Spurs did not blow it, OKC just took it!"

My new Signature ...

[OKC Thunderstorm]

Backdoor sweep.

Kerr: "Spurs did not blow it, OKC just took it!"

My new Signature ...

[100%duncan]

Fuck my Life.

[RashoFan]

Damn...damn...damn...this is heart breaking....

Good Luck OKC...

Next Year Spurs...next year...

[Bulwark]

ahh all hugs and kisses. I am sore damn loser

[Durant 35]

Good series guys

[Kidd K]

If any title deserves an asterisk, it would be this one for OKC.


2012 Champs: Thunder*


* Given the title by the NBA through extremely biased officiating

[Floyd Pacquiao]

so this is how it ends huh lmao

[Darius Bieber]

How much you wanna bet the Classless OKC fans will boo when they say "Let's Congrats the Spurs for a great series" when OKC gets the Western Conference Trophy?

[DBMethos]

Hell of a season. Shitty way to go out, but hell of a season anyway.

[AidanNelson2009]

Agreed, someone from the Spurs needs to say the refs fucked them over, because we all know that's why we lost. It's cheating.

[Bulwark]

Damn...damn...damn...this is heart breaking....

Good Luck OKC...

Next Year Spurs...next year...
I wish but we're not getting any younger and Tim is not in his primer

[Spurs Brazil]

Thanks Jax. You're a fucking warrior

[fotan2]

Why didn't Pop call a timeout.

What the fuck was he thinking???????????

it would be an offensive foul right after they come back to the court.

jesus, you are sleeping or what? wake up.

[DPG21920]

Tony Parker fucking shriveled. Unforgivable.

[Duncan2177]

Yea thanks refs for giving okc the win, and thank you parker for playing like a scared little bitch in the series. Fuck the nba

[Beaverfuzz]

out of gas, out of time.

[polandprzem]

OKC players kissing with refs

Thank you Stern :worthy

[Spurs Brazil]

Good series guys

Get this ring. I hate Miami and Boston.

Good luck. Thunder is a great team

[Floyd Pacquiao]

*

[DPG21920]

Also, I don't care what anyone says, the officiating was a fucking travesty in that half. Just a travesty. Every single 50 50 went their way and there were several momentum changing calls that were clearly not correct.

It was fucking bullshit

[Quiet Strength]

Good series guys

lol no way. This should be going to game 7. It's not like okc wasnt capable of beating the spurs without the refs. This game was bullshit.

[loveforthegame]

I'll root for Boston and even the Heat before I root for the Thunder.

[Beaverfuzz]

refs calls aside, you still have to knock down your shots and the Spurs didn't in the 2nd half.

[DPG21920]

OKC was not the better team.

[Knoxxx]

That was a carbon copy of the last 2 games right down to the reffing.

[Quiet Strength]

I'll root for Boston and even the Heat before I root for the Thunder.

Go boston

[RashoFan]

I wish but we're not getting any younger and Tim is not in his primer

I know...I know, I am trying trying to be a gracious loser...I would be droping f bombs and curse in at least 2 languages, but I am trying to be mature...:(

[Ice009]

Fuck you

Doc Rivers calls timeouts.

You want to start something up? I'll smash your head open.

[Horry Hipcheck]

I wish I could be happy for the Thunder. They're a great team. I would have been okay with us losing Game 6 on the floor and not by the whistle. But not like this. This was unbearable. It hurts to know that the games can't just play themselves out. It truly genuinely hurts. Worse than the loss itself. I don't know if a Spurs playoff loss has ever sucked as hard as this one.

I need to separate myself from this for a while. It's been good talking with you fellas. Proud of those of us who believed until the bitter end. Go Spurs Go, always.

[Spurs4#5]

Well I'm sad that the spurs r out but if the spurs can't win it there's no one more I'd rather have a shot than Durant been following him since his days at UT...Durant =class....we as spurs fans were lucky to witness the spurs as a dynasty but every team has its end

[Floyd Pacquiao]

bulshit call after bulshit call *

[Budkin]

I never ever ever ever blame the refs. This time I do. What a crock of BULLSHIT!!!!!!!!

[CitizenDwayne]

I wish no luck upon the Thunder and its fans. I wish death.

I also wish slow and painful death upon the refs and David Stern.

Go Celtics!

*Anyone who can watch the 4th quarter of this game and see nothing shady is fucking delusional.

[ginobili fan]

Boston will take it. they're the modern day Pistons.

back to 2004.
********************************
Screw the NBA

[Darius Bieber]

It's okay guys, the Boston Celtics will rape OKC and show them how it's down.

[Roxsfan]

Spurs are too old to compete with a young athletic team like OKC.

:lobt2::lobt2::lobt2::lobt2:

[Spurs4#5]

And what else do u expect...okc is a duplicate of how San antonio built its team...handing the reigns over

[Ice009]

it would be an offensive foul right after they come back to the court.

jesus, you are sleeping or what? wake up.

Taking wild shots is dumb.

At least run a play.

Get jax a 3.

The guy is fucking on fire and they couldn't run any plays for him like the Celtics do for guys like Ray Allen.

That's poor coaching.

Got screwed by the refs, but that is still poor coaching.

[emanueldavidginobili]

soooooo depressed right now that Manu and Timmy had another shot at a ring, and they will probably never be able to get another one.

[siraulo23]

Proud of this team

Thank you for an amazing season

Great performance tonight from the spurs, they laid it all on the line, the Thunder just too good too fast, they couldnt slow em down

Now for OKC: Go win the Championship!: Im all for the thunder to win 5 championship in a row if it means LBJ doesnt win a ring :lol

[kaji157]

We can blame the refs and probably will be right but Tony Parker singlehandedly took everyone out of rythm by not passing in the whole 2nd half and taking awfull shots, idk fo sure but he might have been 2 for 10.

[Budkin]

Not giving OKC credit for this win. No fucking way.

[Spurs Brazil]

Pop on
http://www.nba.com/live1/

[emanueldavidginobili]

Tony fucking choked!!!!!!!!! Jax came through

[Quiet Strength]

Not giving OKC credit for this win. No fucking way.

They didnt earn it. It should be going to game 7.

[TypicalBJ]

Just give Joey Crawford his MVP trophy already

[Quiet Strength]

Tony fucking choked!!!!!!!!! Jax came through

Sjax had a hot hand.. he should have taken more shots in the second half.

[PublicOption]

I've never in all my years watching the nba seen a game so blatantly given to the home team. Fucking incredible. The worst call ever. fuck stern fuck the nba.


watch game 6 2002 playoffs. LA vs sactown.


that was the worst. the league got away with it. they'll do anything now.

[siraulo23]

I dont how you can say OKC didnt earn it, They hit clutch 3s after another down the stretch to put this away

and dont even talk about how they came back from a huge deficit once AAAGAIN

This team is explosive, kind of sucks they were on fire from the perimeter when the spurs played em this series

[Spurs4#5]

The bright spot...it ain't over...like at the end of every horror movie there's always a moment that makes u think sequel.............KAWHI LEONARD

[Knoxxx]

Well at least we didn't lose fair and square. I saw some amazing bad calls, my whole family including inlaws were like what on earth?

OKC can't be beat with those types of whistles, though few teams could.

Spurs did a great job hanging in the last 3 games despite getting jobbed in each one.

[Spurs4#5]

Also if we're not gonna give credit to okc and blame someone...dont blame Parker, Duncan, Manu, or the refs....blame diaw....dude was passive as fuck...I don't want this guy back

[TampaDude]

Yeah, there were some shitty calls, but let's be honest here...the Thunder were just the better team. The Spurs came out guns blazing in the first half, but pretty much shot their wad and ran out of gas in the second half. The Thunder are a very young, athletic team...Durant could go 50-60 minutes a night easily.

Good luck in the finals, OKC...do us all a favor and make LeBron cry...

[ploto]

Hard to combat quite possibly the best player in the NBA... The scoring champ... Who can play the entire game.

[Ice009]

Also if we're not gonna give credit to okc and blame someone...dont blame Parker, Duncan, Manu, or the refs....blame diaw....dude was passive as fuck...I don't want this guy back

Diaw needs to lose weight against OKC.

Everyone else the weight comes in handy.

Spurs just don't have any decent big man defenders. Boris was the best, but against OKC if he was slimmer it might have helped him more.

[TampaDude]

Hard to combat quite possibly the best player in the NBA... The scoring champ... Who can play the entire game.

Yup...KD is the best in the game right now...no doubt about it. :toast

[Budkin]

Unless the Heat make the Finals I'm not rooting for OKC. if they had won fair and square I would have.

[Spurs4#5]

Diaw needs to lose weight against OKC.

Everyone else the weight comes in handy.

Spurs just don't have any decent big man defenders. Boris was the best, but against OKC if he was slimmer it might have helped him more.

Maybe but his weight doesn't contribute to home being passive and not taking the open shot

[Budkin]

I will concede that KD is fucking amazing. Seriously.

[Budkin]

Maybe but his weight doesn't contribute to home being passive and not taking the open shot

Agreed. He pump faked and drove on every single shot.

[SpurPadre]

Well I'm sad that the spurs r out but if the spurs can't win it there's no one more I'd rather have a shot than Durant been following him since his days at UT...Durant =class....we as spurs fans were lucky to witness the spurs as a dynasty but every team has its end

every team has its end but to have to relive that end for 5 straight years is tough to take, man.

[Ice009]

Maybe but his weight doesn't contribute to home being passive and not taking the open shot

He needed speed on the defensive end, would have helped on offense too.

OKC was too quick for him.

I do want him back if he wants to come back for a reasonable price.

[TampaDude]

I will concede that KD is fucking amazing. Seriously.

Yup...DC kid, too...I've always liked the guy...I'm just pissed at the Spurs for punking out like that.

[PublicOption]

of course, the league went to an extraordinary length to stop a team that won 20 straight. unbelievable!

[Budkin]

Can we please just rebuild so we dont have to go through this anymore.

[kaji157]

Tony Parker´s team, but ginobili is the one putting his face on the loss.

[Budkin]

Keep TP and build around him. Fuck it I don't know what to do. I'm too pissed.

[Spurs4#5]

Yes!!! TD with the callout...seems like okc got every whistle possible

[SpurPadre]

Can we please just rebuild so we dont have to go through this anymore.


Going hard after Nicolas Batum would be a really good start.

[Ice009]

I'm sorry to the people I took shots at in the game thread.

We all wanted this one bad, really bad, no excuse for me though to take shots at people.

99% people here are cool. Tough loss and series.

[SpurPadre]

Yes!!! TD with the callout...seems like okc got every whistle possible

What did he say, exactly?

[Manu20]

Duncan "They got every whistle imaginable" "The whistles just kept blowing"

[ploto]

Yes!!! TD with the callout...seems like okc got every whistle possible

Expect better of Duncan.

[Ice009]

Tim should have said that earlier in the series.

They should have talked about the Ibaka goal tends after game 3.

[Budkin]

Thank GoD FOR TD!!!!!

[Ice009]

Expect better of Duncan.

They did get every 50/50 call.

They got 100% of the 50/50 calls in the second half. I've never seen anything like it.

[Budkin]

They did get every 50/50 call.

They got 100% of the 50/50 calls in the second half. I've never seen anything like it.

Amen bro. That shit was unreal.

[SpurPadre]

Had these calls happened to the heat or celtics, the sports media would be acting like it's armageddon.

[Ice009]

I want a response from you Ploto.


Do you disagree with that I said? Cause that shit is real and you're a Spurs hater if you disagree.

[Budkin]

Gahhhhhhh I'm going to be up all night thinking about this!!!!

[Ice009]

Sorry that you guys are late at night there. Must be tough.

I gotta go to work soon so I can get rid of some of my aggression there.

[ploto]

They did get every 50/50 call.

They got 100% of the 50/50 calls in the second half. I've never seen anything like it.

I saw lots of calls or non-calls that favored the Spurs in the first half. Those calls go to the aggressor.

[Budkin]

I saw lots of calls or non-calls that favored the Spurs in the first half. Those calls go to the aggressor.

There were about 5 calls in the second half that were touch fouls on KD. One or two of which was followed up by a Spur player getting hammered with no call.

[Purch]

Jazz fan here, and I'd like to say that was one of the worst officiated games I've ever witnessed .

[Ice009]

I'm not blaming the refs for the series like in 2006 against Dallas. The refs took that series completely, Spurs took it back with Manu three despite all that, but unfortunately Manu handed it back. That was a total screw job. Then Dallas got hosed in the NBA finals against the Heat. Totally hosed.


Refs screwed us tonight in the second half for sure. You're crazy Ploto if you can't see what happened, but the Spurs still could have won game 5 so the series isn't on the refs.

[LakerHater]

Now here comes the media bashin!
Im sure Israel Gutierrez (http://search.yahoo.com/r/_ylt=A0oG7t_pLNBPMQUALsdXNyoA;_ylu=X3oDMTE2bWNmcWR nBHNlYwNzcgRwb3MDMQRjb2xvA2FjMgR2dGlkA01TWUMwMDJfM TI1/SIG=1212aboib/EXP=1339071849/**http%3a//en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israel_Gutierrez)will have alot to say!!

That doesn't matter. The fact is that we had our victory taken away from us in game 6 by the refs. Those whistles caused a 10 pt swing at least.

[Horse]

Yeah, there were some shitty calls, but let's be honest here...the Thunder were just the better team. The Spurs came out guns blazing in the first half, but pretty much shot their wad and ran out of gas in the second half.

Good luck in the finals, OKC...do us all a favor and make LeBron cry...
If the 2nd half was called anywhere near down the middle our halftime lead would've been enough to win this game.

[Horse]

Thank you jazz fan.

I'm sure he's covered in his own maggoty semen tonight.

Very strange to see the movie Thunderstruck advertised in studio after the game...which just happens to star Kevin Durant, and has cameos for the TNT announce team.

[LakerHater]

Im pretty upset about the calls the WERENT made!

[SpurPadre]

That call on Leonard were he CLEARLY did NOT step out of bounds but was called for it any ways was ridiculous.

[clambake]

get a grip

[dbreiden83080]

At the end of the day Thunder were just too much offensively.. They are as good an offensive team as i have ever seen.. 15 pt lead not enough, they were always gonna make a big run you knew it was coming.

[Ice009]

get a grip

Get a grip on what? That you got swept and had no chance in the series????????????


Spurs very easily could have won it.

You're lucky Dallas didn't have to play the Spurs at all last season and you ran into Lechoke and a dumber version of Westbrook.

Take that one ring and shove it up your ass.

Edit : And give us Dirk while you're at it.

I think this was the hardest loss for the Spurs since 2006 - the last year they should have won the championship.

2008 was hard too, but we had just won the championship the year before.

2009 and 2010 were relatively bad seasons, so it wasn't as shocking when we lost.

2011 was hard, but it was a first-round exit, and the Spurs had a weak finish to the regular season.

2012, like 2006, will be remembered as a year the Spurs should have won it all.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

This loss sucks, but it felt like we lost to the better team. OKC hit some fluky shots, but they looked so much more confident than we did in Games 3-6. They deserved the series even if the fourth quarter officiating was amongst the worst the Spurs have seen since 2006.

:lol just got through reading commentary given in the fourth quarter. It's weird to see respected posters like Baseline Bum, DPG, and MIG gripe about the officiating, but I really can't disagree.


Folks, there should have been a game 7 in San Antonio scheduled for this upcoming Friday.

[BillMc]

I can say, really only 2004 comes close to bumming me out like this. Last year, as much as an early round exit sucked, it never got my hopes up.

This just hurts so bad....

Tony Parker fucking shriveled. Unforgivable.

I don't know much about this DPG, but he gets it. Yes, you should be proud of this team win or lose. But I think DPG realizes what a rare and special opportunity that was lost last night. Yes, some of it was due to shaky calls. But Manu, only had 10 points. Green and Tiago were useless. The Spurs were the favorites just a week ago and now that got swept out the backdoor. without major changes this team is done a legit title contender. They will be good next year just like this year and the year before. But to win titles you cant keep flaming out of the western playoffs after having HCA and not question the fortitude of this current squad. Manu was nails last game and lacking this one. Only SJAX was able to play consistently well as my Thunder rolled the past 4 games. As well as my team played, and I do think we are the better team, no way we win without the help of a choke from the Spurs. That helped us more than the refs.

[OKC Thunderstorm]

But I wouldnt blame Pop. He saw the sink shipping and tried everything he could to plug the holes on the Titanic. Yall just hit and iceberg, Iceberg Slim aka The Durantula aka KDtrey35!!!

[TampaDude]

Hats off to the Thunder...you guys are building a dynasty! Best of luck in the Finals! :toast

Just remember... Legends and Legacies live on and on.

FOREVER.

They never truly die... ;)

:lmao thank god I wasn't posting in this blog when the game was going on.

[timtonymanu]

I wonder if there are posters that still think the Spurs would have beaten the Heat in the NBA Finals if they had been there. :lol

This has been my one consolation to the debacle that happened in the WCF. Had the Spurs made it to the Finals, they probably would've gotten stomped by the Heat.

Maybe it's just cognitive dissonance, but at least our perfect Finals record is still intact.

I don't know. Duncan would have had a field day scoring on Bosh and Battier. Even Tiago would probably have done fine.

And why is that? Had they made it to the Finals, the epic collapse would have never happened and they would have still been the hottest team in basketball headed to the Finals with HCA. Why would there have been a good chance that they would have been stomped by the Heat?

Quality Take :lmao

[Spurs 4 The Win]

soooooo depressed right now that Manu and Timmy had another shot at a ring, and they will probably never be able to get another one.


Can we please just rebuild so we dont have to go through this anymore.


so this is how it ends huh lmao

Lol what have you got?

Quality Take :lmao

That 2012 Heat team was arguably their strongest Finals squad. They had the Big 3 playing at a high level plus Chalmers, and got solid contributions across the board (Haslem, Battier, Miller). The 2013 Heat were close but still needed to be bailed out by a fucking Ray Allen miracle to repeat.

2012 Heat decimated the Thunder's Big 3, who were fresh off backdoor sweeping of the Spurs. People got all enamored with that 20 game winning streak (myself included), but once the pressure got put on, that Spurs team buckled. Had they managed to overcome the Thunder, I still don't think a match-up between them and the Heat could've been anything better than a toss-up.

Dont defend that bad take. Spurs getting stomped by the Kang, good one :lol

Plus we got cheated out of the Finals by the bullshit reffing in this game lol
