WTF was up with that LeBron 3 with :22 left??

[Budkin]

And why were all their starters still in the game? Fucking Bullshit.

[johnpaulwall21]

they thoroughly out played the spurs. they get to do that if they want.

[EVAY]

I had the same reaction. When we were up by so much, we pulled out starters. Miami leaves theirs in and LBJ is so low class he is still taking threes with 22 seconds left in a 16 point game. He was stat padding.

Low class. In fact, I'm pretty sure all his taste is in his mouth.

[ironman2886]

Spo keeps his starters in to run it up. He did it in gm 2 and tonight.

[SpurSpurSpurs]

Wants to beat the 36 point blowout they had for dinner in gam 3, tbh.

[Crookshanks]

Miami has no class, and they wanted the score to look like it was another blowout, when, in fact, the game was pretty close until about the midpoint of the 4th quarter. This game just made me hate the Heat even more.

[Johnny RIngo]

This why the classy bullshit has always pissed me off about the Spurs. If the opposing team is going to run the score up with their starters put Bayne in there and hard foul the shit out of them

[resistanze]

WGAF. That's the least of the Spurs problems, I'm sure no one on the team noticed. They won't need anymore motivation for game 5 than a possible championship getting away.

I agree! Classless team and organization! Running up the score when Pop threw in the towel with 4 minutes in the 4th! That's ok, I hope the Spurs watch this classless shit and remembers and destroys the sons of bitches in Game 5 & 6! Fuck those assholes!

[ohmwrecker]

He was worried how his stats compared to DWade's.

[sammy]

I would've loved one of scrubs to have cheap shot Wade in the knee and take out Lebroom as well! Also take out the pteroydacyl as well!

[MeloHype]

He was worried how his stats compared to DWade's.
:lol

[hater]

good for Lebron. He pushed the shit in.

the spurs bent over and let it happen. fuck on the spurs

[cjw]

I'm happy he hit it. Hopefully that pisses everyone off for next game. Except for Manu, who should be tied down to the bench.

[Thebesteva]

When you lack a father figure, you do some immature stuff tbh

[Juggity]

Dwade playing that late in the game with that kind of lead is asking for trouble. Not sure what Spoelstra was thinking there, but I'm all for Wade playing heavy minutes and accruing more severe chronic injuries.

[davidbowie]

When you lack a father figure, you do some immature stuff tbh

lol

[gameFACE]

LeBron stat padding. But also afraid of any possible Spurs run that could happen.

[davidbowie]

isnt this a Pat Reilly thing?

[littleavery1948]

The Miami Heat are front-runners; they only get away with this because the NBA sucks now. They would be lucky to win 6 games in the playoffs 20 years ago. They would be lucky to win 2 games against any of the champions prior to 2011. Only the Lakers in 2009 and 2010 would struggle with this Miami team. Lebron would get knocked on his ass 20 years ago, but now, it's a suspension. Not worth it.

[doobs]

I was kinda hoping that would backfire, like Thibodeau's decision to not bench Rose last year.

[Darius McCrary]

Why the fuck would anyone care???? I'm more concerned with how the Spurs played than anything the Heat players did once the Spurs let the game be a joke.

[Darius Bieber]

That should be the least of the worries for the Spurs.

[HI-FI]

When you lack a father figure, you do some immature stuff tbh

true.

this was pretty fucking classless. whole team are so damn entitled, but shit, it don't seem to matter, probably going to win a championship unless Spurs get their shit together/get a miracle/get fair treatment from officials in last few games.

[HarlemHeat37]

:lol this reminds me of when people had meltdowns when the Patriots ran up the score every game in 2007..

If you want to get revenge for a guy being "classless", beat him, this is the best stage to do it..

I highly doubt any of the Spurs gave a fuck, though, tbh:lol..

[Seefourdc]

What are you whining about? Somebody had to take some shot. Play it back it looks like he's taking a practice shot. Did you expect him to take a 24 second violation for no reason? He took a 24 foot 3 pointer from a spot he's not a good 3 point shooter from waaaaaah. There was a 60% chance he would miss. He gave the least possible effort he could have and not take a 24 second violation.

[exstatic]

When you lack a father figure, you do some immature stuff tbh

tbh, he was probably wondering if Parker left the game to bone his mom.

[exstatic]

:lol The Bron three was beyond the pale, but Spo CAN'T dump his bench into the game. They allowed the Spurs bench to throw another 8-10 points onto the fire in game three when the benches emptied.

No rest for the wicked.

[dallasmaverickslose]

And why were all their starters still in the game? Fucking Bullshit.

I noticed this too. Screw them. And go to hell, LeBron.

[Juggity]

Precisely

[DarrinS]

Can I get an AMEN?

[FromWayDowntown]

Lebron seemed to sort of threw and elbow at Bonner at the end of the Spurs possession that immediately preceded the 3 and got a pretty good chorus of boos for that. The 3 may have just been his way of saying STFU.

[DMC]

Lebron basically told Wade to fuck off, as he padded his scoring to be above Wades. Wade would have led the game otherwise. Same thing Danny did to Gary.

[Budkin]

Ok whatever but the main question is why the fuck are those guys still in the game?

[DMC]

Because their scoring averages for the series is lower than they wanted it to be so Spo left them in to reward them and allow them to increase their averages to give a false impression that they've done better than they have.

So fucking Bush league.

[Kidd K]

That's what the Heat have done for 3 years. Stat pad during blowouts.

The Spurs reserves needed to rough them up tbh. Not neccessarily hit them with dirty shots, but just play them hard as fuck and be extremely overly physical, and foul hard on every drive. Or Bowen them and step under their feet when they take jumpers while stat padding.

If they're not making them want to ask their coach to let them sit, they're doing it wrong.

[dallasmaverickslose]

Let's just all agree that the Miami Heat can go to hell.

[TheGoldStandard]

That shit will eventually cost them, I'm not saying it'll happen this series or whatever but karma is a bitch and I wouldn't be surprised if LeBron rolled an ankle or something pops. same with dwade.

[dallasmaverickslose]

I hope karma strikes back big time, a team like the cHeat deserves a nice, big punch in the gonads.

[baseline bum]

In a must-win game in the NBA Finals you don't screw around and ever think a game is over. Surely people here can't have forgotten what happened when Golden State took a 16 point lead into the final four minutes of the game.

[DMC]

So fucking Bush league.

It is, but the winner gets to write history...

You'd have a better chance roughing up a bear than roughing up James. He's a big fucker. If he could be easily roughed up, Indy would have done it.

[BatManu20]

Fuck miami. and Lebron. Dude's lucky he's the most physically gifted person on the planet tbh.

[Kidd K]

You'd have a better chance roughing up a bear than roughing up James. He's a big fucker. If he could be easily roughed up, Indy would have done it.

I doubt that.

In any case, the Spurs shouldn't allow them to play so comfortably. Especially when they're stat padding at the end of a won game.

[smaka]

One day some of them will blow up a knee or something when stat padding in garbage time. Karma is a bitch folks.

[tmtcsc]

WGAF. That's the least of the Spurs problems, I'm sure no one on the team noticed. They won't need anymore motivation for game 5 than a possible championship getting away.

This. Exactly what I was thinking.

[Venti Quattro]

:cry :cry :cry :cry :cry :cry :cry :cry :cry :cry

You don't want that to happen, do something about it

[mrjap2x]

Do we really need to complain about everything?

[Mal]

Hey, one fake gangbanger already is paying for it.

[midnightpulp]

Underrated move by Spoelstra, honestly. I don't think the intention was to run up the score, but to fuel Lebron's confidence, which he's had issues with all series, going forward.

[41times]

Don't think Pop did not notice that. He will make a point of reminding his players of that too.
Karma is a Biatch and Instant Karma is gonna get you Miami.

[Josepatches_]

For Miami if Lebron can make JS after JS so he can gain confidence in his shot is better than to play James Jones. Same to score 30+ points after his previous games. That's the truth.

Anyway Pop plays the bench earlier than anyone in the league.

This

[King]

You guys realize these are grown men, and not little kids, right?

[BestPFInTheGame21]

Who cares?

If we don't want them to run up the score, lets not put them in a position to.

Of the Top 10 things on Pops mind, I'm sure this is #50

[Spurs9]

I would do the same if I was LeBron, especially all the people questioning his previous 3 game performances. If your trying to prove a point as the Heat you keep the onslaught on to the end tbh

[ffadicted]

gotta get his avg up

[silverblk mystix]

:cry:cry


"Why can't Miami quit as early as Pop quits?" "Why does Miami's coach believe in playing until the game is over - why can't he wave the white towel in the 3rd qtr in the finals the way Pop does?" "We quit with class!"

[coyotes_geek]

Don't like the other team running up the score on you? Don't get blown out.

[Spur|n|Austin]

First time ever in my sports watching career I hoped for an injury.

[Keepin' it real]

WTF was up with that LeBron 3 with :22 left??

You do remember that the Spurs blew them out by 36 points just a game earlier, right? LBJ was simply giving a little payback.

And Spoelstra had him out there so he can continue to "rediscover" his shooting stroke.

[Budkin]

Don't like the other team running up the score on you? Don't get blown out.

We weren't getting blown out until they ran up the score.

[tesseractive]

And why were all their starters still in the game? Fucking Bullshit.
LeBron knows that when people are looking at his career, they'll be looking at his scoring average for the finals. So who cares that he scored 10 of them in garbage time -- points is points.

Just padding the stats they're supposed to pad, tbh.

[Knoxxx]

Like was stated I think Miami was actually a little scared of some miracle comeback even with at little as 2 mins left. LeBron 3 was due to shot clock though it was painful to watch.

Heat wanted it more and a loss is a loss final score does not matter. We need to come out MUCH more aggressive if we want to regain any advantage we can heading back to Miami.

[smaka]

Hey, one fake gangbanger already is paying for it.

Yes, had exactly him on my mind :lol

[sjacquemotte]

I agree. An MVP doesn't do that. That was to fluff the stats. But it's only another reason why he'll never be MJ. But like my buddy told me when I got mad at T.O. for celebrating on the Dallas star for the second time: They don't like it-keep him out of the endzone

[Horse]

And why were all their starters still in the game? Fucking Bullshit.
He is the ultimate frontrunner when things go well he plays great and does shit like that. But when things go south he ducks his head like the pussy he is. We were on our way to burying them in the first till the zebras showed up.

[JRHernandez88]

Tried to outscore Wade tbh

[spursmvp]

Why are you guys mad? The longer their starters are in there, the more chances they get hurt.

[mencken]

First time ever in my sports watching career I hoped for an injury.

This is going to sound unclassy as fuck but, if one team throws in the towel and empties the bench and the other team doesn't respond in kind, I always keep watching for an injury. There's no reason to keep your players in, other than to run up the score and/or stat pad.

It was especially stupid in game 2, considering the Heat players were already whining about fatigue. They were gifted a 10 minute break, but decided to use that time to boost their stats.

[Solid D]

00:23 LeBron 30 Pts. D-Wade 32 Pts.
00:22 LeBron 33 Pts. D-Wade 32 Pts.

[Mal]

Yes, had exactly him on my mind :lol

I love your signature

[GrandeDavid]

That's yet another added fuel to the fire for the next game.

[Raven]

it was a little lame tbh

[JRHernandez88]

00:23 LeBron 30 Pts. D-Wade 32 Pts.
00:22 LeBron 33 Pts. D-Wade 32 Pts.
:lol That works a little better

Call me crazy but I do want to see James and Wade both go off and at their best in this series, it's pretty boring when they're not. I want no excuses, this team WE got is one of the best of all time considering their legacies and how long they've been together and still here playing for the trophy. I want them to be recognized for that. No team is unbeatable and I think we can match the talent of their best players with our SYSTEM and TEAM play. #ORIGINALBIG3























GINOBILI, where are you? :depressed
