[BatManu20]

I honestly feel like it's going to be either a really close game at the end or a blow out... nothing in between. Hope it's the former. Pray it is.

For me it comes down to 2 things:

The Team that gets to the most 50/50 balls

The team with at least 2 stars and 1 role player that shows up, wins

[NASpurs]

Next time I log in, I want the servers to be super slow because people are spamming the forum with celebratory threads of winning 'ship #5.

GSG!

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Well, this is it, the almost unwinnable game... whatever happens, it's been an amazing season and an even more incredible 15 years.

GO SPURS GO!!!

If Chalmers scores 15, the Spurs lose

[TDomination]

my goodness this can't start fast enough!

[dg7md]

Play our game, end our turnovers, and we will no doubt walk out on top.

It won't be easy, but I know the guys will give it their best effort.

And please, I want the torture over with anyway. :lol

[AASATX]

This is it! Come on Spurs!!!!:flag:

[$pursDynasty]

Believe!

[Baam]

I'm curious to know who's starting the game, Manu or Boris?

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

I honestly feel like it's going to be either a really close game at the end or a blow out... nothing in between. Hope it's the former. Pray it is.

I feel like we'll play a great first half and be in the game, but then mental and physical exhaustion will take its toll and we'll be blown out starting mid-late 3rd Q.

However, you can NEVER count out this team. All year we've been winning from behind, over-performing, finding miracles... let's just hope there's one more in the bag! :)

[RD2191]

Welp. I'm expecting an ass raping of epic proportions, but fuck it. :flag:

[noles1983]

:lobt2: fucking take it Spurs!!!

[ace3g]

Matthew R Tynan @Matthew_Tynan

(http://twitter.com/Matthew_Tynan)Manu out there dunking in layup lines.

Doesn't mean much but hopefully that is his mentality entire game

[BillMc]

Here we go. 48 to a championship!!!:flag:

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

I'm curious to know who's starting the game, Manu or Boris?

I'd bet it's Manu. I want Boris to play most of the second half, but giving Manu a chance to get going is probably the right call.

[timtonymanu]

I'm curious to know who's starting the game, Manu or Boris?

Same starting 5 like Game 5 and 6.

[biziofromdowntown]

Damn, i'm shittin in my pants LOL

[peacemaker885]

Good luck boys and girls!

[AASATX]

I already gotta take a piss

[SpurSwag]

I'm so nervous, I really hope our guys can get it done. I think we'll be fine as long as their shooters don't go off

[$pursDynasty]

I know they were the last champs but the Heat don't need to be shown with all of these great dynasties in the opening montage. They ain't earned it.

[boutons_deux]

I'm so nervous I can't watch the pre-game show,


caught the end of The Great Grabowski to take my mind elsewhere.

[allansy20]

WE BELIEVE!

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Damn, i'm shittin in my pants LOL

I'm the opposite, strangely calm.

I guess I've mentally prepared for what's likely to happen to soften the blow. It's a good strategy because if things go the other way I'll be even more excited! ;)

[$pursDynasty]

We Believe and Good Lord Willin the good guys will show the world how it is done

[TDfan2007]

I can only imagine how nervous the players are before this game. I wonder how sloppy it's going to be at the start. Both teams were on fire last night.

[siraulo23]

I'm the opposite, strangely calm.

I guess I've mentally prepared for what's likely to happen to soften the blow. It's a good strategy because if things go the other way I'll be even more excited! ;)

Ive has this mentality this years playoffs after last year

Works well :lol

[Juggity]

So tired of this girl singing the anthem. Can't they find anyone else?

[Jenks]

I don't know what bothers me more about this girl, the smug look on her face or her giant forehead.

[~Sweetmelody~]

I am a bundle of nerves, can't imagine how the players feel!!

[BatManu20]

[Darius McCrary]

Guys it's been a privilege cheering for this team all season with yall

1 more baby. Let's do this.

[$pursDynasty]

They, should have let her and the little amigo do a duet for game 7 and sing it together.

[01Snake]

TONIGHT, WE HONK!!!

[Spurs21Fan4Ever]

Crowd already into it. Not feeling good.

[hsxvvd]

Am I the only person who wants to punch Julia Dale in the face?

[Tp9gospursgo]

LETS GOOOOOOOOO!!

[dg7md]

Crowd already into it. Not feeling good.

They gotta make them walk out again. :lol

[biziofromdowntown]

Am I the only person who wants to punch Julia Dale in the face?

hahahahaha same here

[ThePop]

Crowd already into it. Not feeling good.

Should they not be into it?

[r0drig0lac]

yes

[$pursDynasty]

Run them out of their gym, send those fair weather South Beachers home early AGAIN!

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Ive has this mentality this years playoffs after last year

Works well :lol

Yeah, it's maturity I think. At 38 I've finally worked out how my brain works. :lol

[Spurs21Fan4Ever]

They gotta make them walk out again. :lol

Easy, just get a 10 point lead in the 1st quarter and they'll file out of the doors.

[~Sweetmelody~]

They, should have let her and the little amigo do a duet for game 7 and sing it together.

Exactly what I was thinking, lol

Regardless, kids did a great job!

[SpurSwag]

It's been a real privilege being able to watch this team all year. They are easily my favorite spurs team of all time, and I've really grown attached to just about everyone one of them. They deserve this thing, and it'd be a damn shame if we didn't close it.

[noles1983]

Crowd already into it. Not feeling good.

like they arent gonna be for game 7?

[siraulo23]

Spurs need to play like game 5, they're best game this series, not sure they're physically capable at this point gsg

[hsxvvd]

Watching this game completely emotionless. Strange Feeling.

[TDomination]

hands sweatin, pacing back and forth, stomach is turning, wow im nervous

[HarlemHeat37]

Julia Dale has a massive head and hairy arms, tbh..bitch looks 30, tbh..

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Julia Dale sounds like a 45yo soul singer who has been drinking whiskey all her life. :lol

Nice work, kid. :)

[m33p0]

LEEERRRRROOOOOYYYYYY JJJEEEEEENNNNKKKKKIIIIIINNNNNNNSSSS!

hell ya we deserve it, the cocky were better than the world attitude will do the heat in tonight. they think they got this in the bag, spurs will take it!

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

I fuckin hate the White Stripes, always have. Fuck you Heat fans. :ihit

[biziofromdowntown]

Everything for 48 minutes. Let's take it

[superjames1992]

You know what Gary Neal was thinking during that National Anthem...

[GaryJohnston]

Why does Jessie Williams matter?

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Watching this game completely emotionless. Strange Feeling.

It'll creep up on you as the game goes on. ;)

How ya been BTW?

[Baam]

Lebron in the huddle is so lame lol

[TDomination]

lol showing heat huddle

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Whatever happens, this series has cemented the Spurs as the greatest team of this era, and Timmy as the greatest player of his generation. No-one can really argue that now.

[Spurs Brazil]

Tony!

[AASATX]

TP!

[BatManu20]

They're intensity and energy out of the gate is much better than ours.

[Juggity]

This is going to be the longest NBA game I've ever seen. Jesus.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

No Crawford or Mauer.

[Spurs Brazil]

Timmy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ata]

Timmy!Timmy again!

[AASATX]

Timmy!!!

[noles1983]

TD!!!

[Spurs21Fan4Ever]

Tim Duncan is amazing.

[BatManu20]

Tony Parker wake up man

[Spurs Brazil]

Tony, pass the damn ball

[noles1983]

need to take their diva crowd out of the game

[HarlemHeat37]

Parker had Green wide open for 3..ugh..

[Raven]

looked clean

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Timmy coast to coast! :lmao

[Juggity]

Fuckin' chalmers.

[01Snake]

Green needs to stick to shooting the 3's

[noles1983]

lol manu

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Uh-oh, no lift in TP's legs... :depressed

[Spurs Brazil]

Manu tres!

[Juggity]

Manu! 3

[noles1983]

fuck yeah manu

[tah]

manu 33333333333333333333333!!

[AASATX]

Manu!!! Please let this be just the start of things to come.

[Duncan21MVP]

Hell yeah!!!!

[TDomination]

manu!

[Tim_duncan21]

TD!!!!!!!!

[noles1983]

fucking awesome go spurs step on their throats

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Manu, excellent. We need something from him tonight.

[BatManu20]

Fucking rim jobs

[dg7md]

Loving Manu's aggression. KEEP IT UP.

[Spurs Brazil]

damn, 2nd on Manu

[Duncan21MVP]

Lebron jumper. I like it.

[BatManu20]

Wtf Kawhi what are you doing?

[Juggity]

dammit manu

[soxxx]

Wierd start,

[noles1983]

Fucking rim jobs

:lol

[BatManu20]

Dumb decision by Kawhi. Seriously.

[dg7md]

Manu being out could be a good time for us imo

[noles1983]

Fucking rim jobs

:lol

[Spurs21Fan4Ever]

Kawhi needs to play his game! Slow down the pace SA!

[RD2191]

Bullshit foul!

[Southwest Texas Fan]

Miami looks out of sorts.

[HarlemHeat37]

Duncan should have sagged off as far as humanly possible there, tbh:lol..

If Wade makes 3s, you live with that shit..

[Duncan21MVP]

The longer we keep a small lead, the less crowd noise and the better our chances.

[Raven]

6 very quick minutes..

[BatManu20]

Parker looks like he has no energy... and it's the first quarter.

[noles1983]

surprised miami didnt have a huge start

[RD2191]

Pops timeouts make zero sense to me.

[Darius Bieber]

Spurs have always jumped out to 10 point leads early in the game. Only to lose the lead in 2 minutes later on.

[HarlemHeat37]

Have the Spurs ran a post play for Duncan yet?..

[dg7md]

Ugly game, but I think we'll keep it up.

[TDomination]

we don't look sharp but we're up, we need to play our game, kawhi uncharacteristically taking a jump shot on a fast break

[Darius McCrary]

I love Kawhi's aggression. Manu 2 fouls is worrisome. Also, we missed 2 very good looks in that quarter.

[Spurs21Fan4Ever]

Parker looks like he has no energy... and it's the first quarter.

I hope he's playing opossum, but I doubt that's the case.

[dg7md]

Pops timeouts make zero sense to me.

Disagree... Manu out early, LeBron hitting FTs and cutting the lead down. Stifle the fans and run some different plays with Neal in the game.

[milkyway21]

I can see the confidence and the anger he he :tu

[Southwest Texas Fan]

Ugly game, but I think we'll keep it up.

Lets win ugly.

[Baam]

Have the Spurs ran a post play for Duncan yet?..

They sent a double team when he got the ball in the paint.

[HI-FI]

that commercial was pretty well done.

[Chinook]

The Heat look flat. That's the best news so far.

[TDomination]

Spurs have always jumped out to 10 point leads early in the game. Only to lose the lead in 2 minutes later on.

hopefully we don't lose it right away.

Spurs gotta keep the lead, keep the crowd out of it and make miami play from behind all game.

[Floyd Pacquiao]

maybe pop's saving the post plays for the 2nd half

[dg7md]

we don't look sharp but we're up, we need to play our game, kawhi uncharacteristically taking a jump shot on a fast break

Heat check. I bet the players are using the first quarter to experiment and try to get their shots in order cause both teams are very fidgety right now.

[RD2191]

Spurs can't afford to give up the lead. A 5 point cushion into the half would be nice.

[Spurs21Fan4Ever]

we don't look sharp but we're up, we need to play our game, kawhi uncharacteristically taking a jump shot on a fast break

I'd be fine with that in any game but game 7 of the Finals. I've been calling for Kawhi to take more initiative on offense, but not this game. He needs to stick with what he does best. However, in the first game of the 2013-2013 season, I want him shooting that!

[ducks]

players are to hyped right now

[smaka]

I'm sooo nervous!! Good start for the Spurs. Keep it up!

[HI-FI]

maybe pop's saving the post plays for the 2nd half

good point. we gonna play this slow, just need to keep warming up and building. both teams must be friggin exhausted.

[TDomination]

i wish the game ended right now, we'd be champs lol

[Spurs21Fan4Ever]

Kawhi is cold.

[noles1983]

dammit KL

[BatManu20]

Kawhi off to a horrible start

[HarlemHeat37]

Is there an easier way for Wade to get going than by having Gary Neal guarding him?..

[Spurs21Fan4Ever]

Neal, SMH

[noles1983]

stupid fucking shots

[Jenks]

No foul, really?

[Southwest Texas Fan]

Come on Neal!

[timtonymanu]

Parker, stop heroballing.

[HI-FI]

crofl heroball per par(ker)

[loveforthegame]

Ugh. :bang

[Juggity]

Fuck. Duncan the only dude playing with top notch energy out there.

[BatManu20]

Neal, Leonard, and Tony... WTF

[HarlemHeat37]

The Spurs need to get Duncan the ball in the post when Parker is being guarded by Lebron, tbh..

[Spurs Brazil]

Kawhi!!

[Duncan21MVP]

Why are we pump faking on every three attempt and then missing mid-range jumpers? Just shoot the damn ball unless a defender is in your jersey!!

[RD2191]

Terrible

[Jenks]

Allen literally pushed Parker in the chest while driving

[DAF86]

Pass the damn ball Tony.

[ata]

kawhi

[Raven]

it's obvious how the refs will do their job..

[loveforthegame]

Stay aggressive Leonard.

[AASATX]

Leonard!

[AchillesHeel]

Duncan MY NIGGA

[Jenks]

OMG TIM

[Spurs21Fan4Ever]

Please take out Neal!

[BatManu20]

GTFO Neal

[noles1983]

need to hit shots

[Spurs Brazil]

great pass TD

[tah]

nice!!

[Jenks]

Spurs can't hit anything outside the paint

Good thing they're getting in the paint so often

[ata]

nice start Boris

[Juggity]

Diaw is always in the right place

[Southwest Texas Fan]

Diaw!

[Duncan21MVP]

Diaw could be a big X factor for us tonight.

[HarlemHeat37]

Gary Neal is 0-2 and has allowed both FGs to Wade..

Duncan post play leads to a FG? What a surprise..

[noles1983]

lol doo doo face allen

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Timmy with the Hibbert-block!

[Jenks]

Nice pass Diaw

sigh

[AchillesHeel]

Kawhi tragic bronson

[Spurs21Fan4Ever]

Come on Spurs quit turning the ball over! Leonard is trying too hard.

[Baam]

Dumb TO

[BatManu20]

Holy shit our role players are playing awful. WTF guys.

[Juggity]

3 point shooters are going to have step up to win this game...

[HarlemHeat37]

Tony looks terrible so far, making poor decisions..clean it the fuck up..

[loveforthegame]

Leonard gobbling up the boards.

[~Sweetmelody~]

I hope they get rid of those nerves ASAP

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

I want to see more screen-move stuff.

[Darius Bieber]

If we play like this, we have no chance later in the game.

[noles1983]

neal...

[Jenks]

Great job Diaw!!!

[ata]

slowing down the pace, smart

[Spurs21Fan4Ever]

Diaw you idiot!

[Jenks]

LOL MANU
