Shout-out to all the cliff jumpers..

[HarlemHeat37]

At least 75% of this forum quit on the Spurs at some point this season..

A lot of people here had the balls to pick the Lakers in round 1..half the forum quit during the Golden State series and prior to Memphis :lol..

Now these same posters will celebrate and act like they believed in the Spurs the entire season..fucking pussy boys, tbh:lol..

[timtonymanu]

Pussy boy checking in, tbh.

:lol picking Memphis in 6

[RD2191]

STFU, "oh look at me im a true fan cuz i never doubt my team". whine some more buddy

[Spursfanfromafar]

I picked the Spurs in 5. Never thought they will sweep. They proved me wrong.

What a team. What leadership. What composure. What perseverance.

This has been a great journey for Popovich, Parker, Duncan, Ginobili, Splitter, Leonard, Green, Joseph, Neal, Diaw, Bonner, Mills, De Colo, Baynes, Blair and McGrady. Lets hope they take that effort into the Finals as well.

Go Spurs Go!

[KaiRMD1]

I'm a bitch, checking in but if the quitting helped this team (jinx wise) I will continue to quit on them.

[HarlemHeat37]

The biggest drama queen of all, tbh:lol..

[weeks]

i never stopped believing.
sure didn't see this sweep coming though. pleasant surprise. happy to be mistaken.

robdiaz is the worst. i swear he has some psychological issue that makes him take perverse pleasure in poor performance by the team.

[HarlemHeat37]

I don't really mind the people that picked Memphis to win the series or whatever..

I'm referring to the people that actually quit on the team, not just picked against them, which was very common on ST this season, tbh..

[Spurs9]

You would know about cliffs mr broke back mountain tbh

Seriously. Although oddly enough in game 3 he was the calmest person in chat. Fucking bizarre, but whatever.

Well said. There's a difference between thinking your team might be outmatched and whining "it's over" in the first quarter because we're down 4 points. :pctoss

[Kool Bob Love]

Great thread.

[RD2191]

gtfo, I called a Spurs sweep of the Grizz

[dav4463]

I admit I had my doubts, but I never give up.

[Arcadian]

Yeah, pretty much why I made the thread called "lol Quitters"

[capek]

Not me. I think I got blacked this season because I was one of the few that kept maintaining that optimistic vibe. I thought a finals berth was possible, after the Harden trade, and Kawhi and Danny having another year under their belt. Still can't believe we're really there though. So amazing to be back in the finals. So happy right now!

[TE]

Throughout the season I never doubted. Let's fucking do this shit!

[Brazil]

Never quit on the team tbh but I called Memphis in 6. Glad I was utterly wrong

[DieHardSpursFan1537]

This thread is useless

[JingleJangleJingle]

i never lost faith...my name should get bolded tbh.

[SanDiegoSpursFan]

I gave up on the season after the Miami game. Obviously I'm not very bright, though I thought the Spurs could make the WCF easily.

Fuckin aye. :tu

To finish the season I was very concerned about the team because the injuries had put us out of whack. I called Spurs in 5 for the Fakers series, and as theat wound on we looked to be regaining some form, if slowly. Picked Spurs in 6 over the Warriors with our greater experience winning through in the end (exactly what happened), but knew it would be a tough series as they were hot and a terrible matchup for us, especially with Splitter out and a very thin front line. Then I called Spurs in 7 for this series and am quite stunned that we've swept them... Grizz just ran out of ideas on how to slow us down and never had the guns on offence to mount a challenge. Onward and upward!


STFU, "oh look at me im a true fan cuz i never doubt my team". whine some more buddy

You're the worst of them. You regularly cliff-jump in the 1st quarter and proclaim the game "over" when we drop a lead from 15 to 8. YOU are the whiny fuckin bitch here, and it's hilarious that you'd pretend otherwise. :lmao

[Capt Bringdown]

I didn't believe the Spurs would make it to the finals & now my cup runneth over.
I'd rather cherish the surprise, joy and wonder than be a smug, know-it-all jackass.

OK, you eat believe corn flakes for breakfast and shit silver and black turds at night.

"Believe" all you want, but it's not some fucking moral imperative that you can lord over other fans.
GFY, in other words.

[RD2191]

Oh wow ruff n ready is a superfan on st, gtfo fagget

[Aztecfan03]

Never lost faith either. Big 3 was healthy enough to dominate, but Parker even exceeded my expectations so far.

[Jumi]

Never a cliff jumper!!! We are STILL the San Antonio Muthafuckin Spurs!!!

GSG!

[timvp]

:lol @ cliff jumpers

[Kidd K]

FUCK! My take on Spurs/Grizz series was wrong. I had Spurs in 5.

[HarlemHeat37]

:lol Capt Bringdown, one of the biggest cliff jumpers in history, tbh..this nigga quits after every bad quarter..

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Oh wow ruff n ready is a superfan on st, gtfo fagget

It's not about me, it's about you. Get some fucking perspective and stop cliff-jumping every 2 seconds and I'll leave you alone.

[PBEEZY]

Yea, fuck those bitches B

[RD2191]

And I cliffed jumped when during this series?

[RD2191]

Leavd me alone? :lmao im sooooo scared. :lmao

[Chinook]

:lol @ cliff jumpers

You tell 'em. Can you believe some people actually thought Memphis was the overwhelming favorite in this series?

[sananspursfan21]

still got a lot of cliff jumpers for the upcoming series... feel like those who believe in them against the heat (including me) are a very rare breed

[howbouthemspurs]

Always keep the faith!

[stephen jackson]

we looked so bad the last two months come on,
but everything fell in place just right so far now its all about wills

[The Reckoning]

troll feeding frenzy. go easy on the greys. they just lost their finals virginity.

[blkroadrunners]

I love this team.

[jesterbobman]

It's OK to be concerned about how a team is playing, or feel that they're unlikely to win. Fandom involves realising that your team has a shot, hoping that your 1 shot will come out positively, and enjoying the ride and the journey, rather than just the joy when it comes out with your team winning.

[SayTown]

Just wait till the first loss against Miami

[HarlemHeat37]

I don't have a problem with picking against the Spurs, tbh..being a blind homer is almost as annoying as pessimistic cliff-jumpers, tbh..

I've picked against the Spurs many times, including every year prior to this season's run..

However, people that were claiming shitty teams like the Lakers, Nuggets, Warriors, etc would beat the struggling Spurs in the playoffs are fucking cliff jumpers, tbh..

People that made threads about the Spurs losing the series and having no chance because Klay Thompson and Harrison Barnes are too good are fucking imbeciles, tbh..

There's a difference between picking an elite team like the Heat to beat the Spurs, as opposed to quitting on the team after game 2 against the shitty Warriors or after the Spurs string of injuries in March:lol..

[SpursRock20]

Proud to say that I never jumped ship while many were going into the playoffs. I attributed their lack of consistency heading into the playoffs due to the rest and recent injuries and figured they would come around in the playoffs. But I did not count on them sweeping in the WCF.

[hooperflash]

quit feeding rob fellas...

Anyway, 4 More!

[therealtruth]

The reason the Spurs are back is the championship defense is back. They're going to need to keep playing that defense to win it all. I think the reason I though the Spurs would win against the Grizzlies is that their defense was very good against the explosive Warriors. I really didn't think the Grizzlies stood a chance since their offense isn't as good.

[Spur|n|Austin]

Bunch of quitters in here; I never lost faith an never will.

[silverblk mystix]

OP's name is Harlem HEAT...LOL

[SA210]

I picked the Spurs to get back to the Finals at the beginning of the season, tbh. Picked them to sweep Memphis too :tu I may not agree with every Pop move (Bonner/Neal) so much, but I always had faith in my team. :tu

I won't cliff jump against Miami either, if that's who we play.

[exstatic]

STFU, "oh look at me im a true fan cuz i never doubt my team". whine some more buddy

He's not the whiner, tbh...

[TheChillFactor]

This season? Dude I've been in since '89 and haven't lost hope. For the people that picked Memphis, now you are wrong and look like a douche. Congrats!

[pgardn]

Most of this board uses the last game as a marker for the entire season. Young bipolar fans.

I had no expectations of this team making the finals at the beginning of the season. All I wanted was a team doing well enough on limited talent to show the rest of the NBA that there are alternatives to winning other than the mind numbing Kobe Lebron iso. And I got that. Last season was great for me as well.

Did anyone call Tim Duncan's resurgence?
Danny Green and Leonard giving us the great perimeter D?
Manu fully healthy for the playoffs?

Who has the crystal ball? Did anyone post Duncan would be 1st team all NBA?

I put my wife on the list of quitters. She melted down during the 3rd game and went to sleep thinking we lost. I smacked her with a pillow after overtime and left the house. She never knew what hit her.

Exactly. A cliff-jumper is NOT someone who picks against the Spurs to start a series, or who rightly analyses the team's mistakes, or who criticises the team when they deserve it, those are active fans who care about their team.

A cliff-jumper is someone who calls the game lost in the first quarter, or melts down every time a lead gets pegged back or the other team goes on a run. A cliff-jumper is someone who thinks a game 2 loss means the end of a series, or someone who vows not to watch the team again after a poor game like a petulant child (but then always comes back as if no-one noticed). A cliff-jumper is someone without long-term perspective, who cannot see the big picture. For cliff-jumpers the only satisfaction lies in easy wins and a journey without adversity and character. I don't know why cliff-jumpers bother supporting teams at all.

The glory of a run like this lies only partly in the destination - the far more satisfying part is the bumps overcome during the journey.

So is cliff-jumping okay when the Spurs were getting swept by Phoenix and lost 4-1 to the Lakers?

If what I wrote above isn't clear enough then I can't help you - try reading it again because your question doesn't make any sense in the context of what I wrote. And if you still don't understand what I wrote try the game thread some time and you'll see what I'm talking about.

[Budkin]

I honestly didn't think the Spurs could get past OKC once all the injuries started. Luckily everyone got better and Westbrook went down. I haven't picked against the Spurs yet in the playoffs and won't in the Finals, but I'll admit that playing the Heat will be the toughest Finals the Spurs have had, even more so than the Pistons in 2005. Their chances are not great.

You jumped ship in 2010 and you're calling out the quitters and non-believers after the Spurs backed their way into the postseason and folowing the Westbrook injury? Kind of Surreal if you ask me, tbh.

[therealtruth]

Since '11 I've felt the only way the Spurs had a shot at the championship was Splitter playing a major role. He's the lynchpin. Even in '10 I think if Pop had used Dice more we would have been better off.

Good call on Splitter. Our team slowly regained some form in the first round but seemed to take a step back when Splitter went down. He wasn't great in his first two games back during the Warriors series as he clearly wasn't confident on the ankle, but he really came on after that and so did the whole team. Splitter is absolutely crucial to this team's success.

[Kidd K]

Yeah that's it, that's what I meant! :lobt2:

Picked the Spurs in 7 in all three rounds.
Spurs in 6 against Pacers/Heat.
