Thanks for the ride

[timvp]

Hell of a season, Spurs. Hell of a season.

Thank you.

And thank you to Spurs fans.

I'm sorry.

[six fo]

Ur a fucking bitch fuck u

[Mal]

Great ride, probably my last NBA game for a long long time. So sad right now....

[Floyd Pacquiao]

Im not even mad....life goes on....just wasnt mnt to be

[u4lakers14]

THE HEAD COACH SCREWED YOUR CITY TRYING TO BE ZEN-LIKE. SORRY DUDE

[BillMc]

Unbelievably sad but proud of this team. They actually responded so well to Game 6.

[biziofromdowntown]

Sorry Timvp, but u r too kind.

[Spurs Brazil]

Good job guys. It was a great season. Bunch of players had bad games. Not fair to put the loss on one single player

Amazing season.

Just very sad we could't finish

:depressed

[leonarth]

Hell of a season, Spurs. Hell of a season.

Thank you.

And thank you to Spurs fans.

I'm sorry.

Thanks for everything

[weeks]

Absolutely heartbreaking. Definitely.

But we had a hell of a series. A legendary one.
It ended on a terrible note for us as fans.

Strangely, I'm not really looking forward to the next season. I know it can't really be as great as this one.

[~Sweetmelody~]

It has been a great season, love my Spurs.

[Seventyniner]

You can still be disappointed even when your expectations are exceeded.

But yeah, this will be part of our history as fans going forward. It won't ever die.

[MANUNG-Ginobili]

see you next season!!! :(

[024]

Don't hurt yourself timvp...

I'm at peace with the Spurs. They played a hell of series and won 2 more games than I thought they would. They kept bouncing back after blowout losses and they kept the game close until the very end. They didn't roll over and die, they went down swinging and that's all we can ask of them at this point.

[Trill Clinton]

manu needs to do us all a favor and retire.

[loveforthegame]

Thanks Spurs fans. It's been fun raving and ranting with you.

Thanks Leonard and Duncan. You gave your all. :tu

Everyone else can gtfo.

[Darius McCrary]

One effing hell of a season.

We did not go down without a fight, but the Heat were the better team.

[Chinook]

It happens. The Spurs fought hard and the younger players will be stronger for it. However, this probably spells the end of the Spurs' championship era for the near future.

Someone had to lose, and this time it was the Spurs. They've now experienced five of the eight possible Finals outcomes. That's pretty interesting.

[ShoogarBear]

One great glorious painful journey.

This is going to hurt for a long time.

[xellos88330]

It was a hell of a ride. I am actually pretty relieved it is over! The Spurs definitely had their chances and I will take the Spurs losing on one shot than them getting demolished. It was a helluva series!

[polandprzem]

we had leonard and duncan to give us hope

Not a good ride. Nobody remembers loser. Sorry.


And I lost money if that fuckin matters

[Monkeyboy14]

So sad... to bad they are getting back to the finals for awhile..

[tuncaboylu]

The team did their best this season. We were so close in Game 6, close as 1 rebound...

We all know that we lost the trophy in Game 6, Game 7 was a lock for Miami after that.

Thanks for everything guys. I proud with you.

[exstatic]

Cliff jumpers, fuck off. You have enough of your own threads. GO there, and mentally masturbate. Fuck you very much.

[Penya]

Almost 6am and I'm in tears. So cruel.

[scottspurs]

Congrats to the Heat. Proud to be a Spurs Fan! They fought to the bitter end. Stay classy

[Bulwark]

It was a great season... it was a great run I never thought they would've got so far

[cd98]

Never thought I'd be cheering this team in June. Losing in the waning moments of a game 7 is no shame. It was a team outspent by millions and came within 8 points of a title.

[biziofromdowntown]

No more games for me. I'm finished.

[mexicanjunior]

Nothing but agony, pain and regret for this season. I just want to forget 2013 ever happened tbh...

[Keepin' it real]

Hell of a season, Spurs. Hell of a season.

Thank you.

And thank you to Spurs fans.

I'm sorry.

Honestly, that's the best we could have hoped for under the circumstances. No way they could win after Game 6.

[birdy219]

I am seriously bawling right now. :(

[dallasmaverickslose]

WE ARE THE BETTER TEAM. WE ARE THE TRUE CHAMPIONS. MIAMI HAS LOST.

[Chomag]

I'm heartbroken right now but I love the Spurs and always will.

[capek]

Hell of a season, Spurs. Hell of a season.

Thank you.

And thank you to Spurs fans.

I'm sorry.


My feelings too. 5 years ago this absolutely would have devastated me. At this point in my life, as tough as the last two games were to watch, even in this moment, I'm still able to recall all the fun and pleasure I derived from watching this Spurs' run. Tough, fucking tough night....'bout all I feel like typing.

[Darius Bieber]

Not a great ending.

[michaelwcho]

The other guys just had a little bit more tonight. Hat's off to LeBron.

Thanks for the good times, Spurs.

[phxspurfan]

Great run! Way mroe than expected and even almost won it all.

[DAF86]

Thanks for another great season Spurs. Now I'm out to get wasted, so glad tomorrow is not a working day here.

[tlongII]

The Spurs had a great season. I didn't think they could get this close to winning it all.

[TE]

Congrats Miami.I'm going down with the ship, GSG

[Spursmania]

Thanks for everything Spurs. Sorry it had to go down this way.
But it was a tremendous season.

[ElNono]

One hell of a season... proud of my guys... it was always a longshot... the reason it looked closer if because this team has balls of steel...

[Spurs Brazil]

One great glorious painful journey.

This is going to hurt for a long time.

I'll say this will hurt forever. That game 6, we had it

[Kuestmaster]

Thank you spurs. I'm heartbreaked right now. With weeks I'll fully appreciate what they have done this year. Right now I just want to hide from the world.

[AchillesHeel]

Spurs fucked up, plain and simple. They choked in Game 6 and they choked in Game 7. They gave all they got and left nothing for the end of games, Tony Parker, the supposed "MVP" during the whole run to the Finals wasn't even good enough to be on the floor during crunch time in both games, that was a pathetic display of basketball by the San Antonio Spurs. From turning the ball over to taking the stupidest shots imaginable. I respect the Heat and I think Lebron cemented his legacy with the way he played but the Spurs had the chance and fucked it up big time. I don't know how to bounce back from this.

[SanDiegoSpursFan]

A week from now, I'll look back and admit that the Spurs overachieved by a lot. But right now I can't stop being angry at the two amigos and Pop.

[NO LIMIT ARMY COMMANDER]

LeBron James in his prime scrapes by to beat 57 year old Tim Duncan.

[easjer]

Hell of a season, Spurs. Hell of a season.

Thank you.

And thank you to Spurs fans.

I'm sorry.

Yep. I loved it. So proud of my Spurs right now. Wish the outcome were different, but I love them.

[Borosai]

Getting to the Finals, and having a chance to win, would probably be considered over-achieving by most.

But to GIVE AWAY the championship in game 6 is the most pathetic playoff defeat I can think of. Not even close.

So yeah, thanks for the ride, but no thanks for driving off the bridge.

[Keepin' it real]

I am seriously bawling right now. :(

Not me, Spurs lost the title two nights ago. Tonight was a formality. But the Spurs made me proud by playing hard until the end.

[Texas_Ranger]

Thanks Duncan and Leonard. Good season.

Can't wait for the next season and some changes. Will probably not watch all the games like this year, cause I just can't live like an American.

Emo freaks go kill yourself.

[Strategic]

Great season to be a Spurs fan.

[Splits]

This series loss is completely and individually on Manu Ginobili. This mother fucker ruined the game 6 clincher, and that can never be forgiven. Manu cost the Spurs 2 championships and he deserves nothing but scorn and hatred from actual Spurs fans. This fucking bitch better not show his face in SA again. Retire in your shithole 3rd world country, you fucking ass hole.

[AASATX]

Still love my Spurs

[biziofromdowntown]

I can't image to look another game for loooong time. And dunno how i'll should look at Pop without remember he was the main cause we lost.

[celldweller]

What a Ride.

[Libri]

Love the Spurs, played with heart.

[Das Texan]

Hell of a fucking season.

Never figured Spurs would be in that situation.

Kawhi is a fucking man and the future of this team.

Timmy proving again how much of a man he is, just ran out of gas; injuries finally seemed to catch up to Parker.

Spurs need to find a big man and stat. Fuck it, go get Cousins. Fuck Splitter's fucking soft ass.

Hopefully Manu retires like he should, fucking epic meltdown in the fourth after an epic meltdown in Game 6 after a glimmer of hope in Game 5. Fuck.

Can't really blame anyone, the better team won, simple as that.

Fuck Lebron and fuck Miami but the better team won. You have to fucking make shots. Spurs didnt. Heat did.

[dunkman]

It doesn't make sense to point fingers, this was a fantastic season.

[easjer]

My feelings too. 5 years ago this absolutely would have devastated me. At this point in my life, as tough as the last two games were to watch, even in this moment, I'm still able to recall all the fun and pleasure I derived from watching this Spurs' run. Tough, fucking tough night....'bout all I feel like typing.

Right there with you, friend.

[diceman]

This is most likely the last time the original Big 3 will be in the finals. 10 seconds away from a title in gm 6. Cruel way to end the season. However, I am with timvp. Thank you for a great ride during the playoffs. I think we all can say unexpected and exciting ride. I know TD is beating himself up for the little jumper he missed, but they had a legitimate chance to win Game 7 on the road and just could not execute the last 90 seconds. My only question is how bad was Parker hurting, as he was the difference tonight. Anyways, great season.

[poop]

WE ARE THE BETTER TEAM. WE ARE THE TRUE CHAMPIONS. MIAMI HAS LOST.

Lmao I love this guy!

[Master splitter]

Lol bunch of crybabies. Keep your heads up all the way to next year. We got an all star in the making..Kawai Leonard aka the Claw.

[KenziE]

Thanks Spurs my heart is broken but i love my spurs forever

[timtonymanu]

:toast

[CGD]

Great season regardless. No one thought the Spurs would get this far and much less make this a series. No one can say with a straight face that the Heat were vastly superior, and that the spurs didn't make them earn it. And they earned it. Respect.

[Chinook]

Also, Leonard stepped up big time, which was nice to see. I'm starting to believe he really can be a special player.

Green now has a definite goal to work toward. If he can get a better game from two, he'll be that much better of a player.

Besides them, however, the Spurs' future is murky. I don't know what I'd do with Splitter and Neal. I guess re-signing them is the best thing to do to keep championship hopes alive. But I might let them to and start looking toward using cap space to collect assets. This could actually be a pretty interesting off-season.

I'm not even mad. I'm going to avoid ESPN like the plague for a while, but I actually feel satisfied with the series.

[SoCalSpursFan]

ugh.

[cjw]

We'll be back. I'm watching this celebration and hope everyone in the locker room is too.

Manu better wake up and just sign for the vet's minimum. Tiago should take the qualifying offer. And then we can really load up. I don't see anyone in the West that will be close to us except OKC. Most other teams in turmoil. We can get back to the finals.

[Sa_Spursfan20]

Im not even mad....life goes on....just wasnt mnt to be

Neither am I, surprisingly. If anything, Im just happy it's over.

[Fireball]

Tough loss, but game 6 was harder to swallow ... I am proud of my Spurs

[polandprzem]

We were better team and I cannot believe we lost :(

Indy took those assholes to 7 games. We had ppl disappearances miami had fuckin bettier.


Sorrow

[MANUNG-Ginobili]

it's been a great ride! no one expected us to be in the finals, people have been counting us out every year...see you next season..still love my Spurs!!!

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

Heat was the better team just like spurs was in game 6. We just dont have the clutchness and luck the heat had.

I still love my spurs but Im just heartbroken for timmy and the spurs because it is all going downhill from now on..

[dallasmaverickslose]

Lmao I love this guy!

Hey! Hey you! Shut the hell up. Show some pride.

[AFBlue]

Spurs went to the final game of the NBA season with a chance to win it all. Yeah, they got beat by the best player in the world, but I'm definitely proud of what they accomplished.

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

The whole team fucking sucks. End of an era....... it was fun I guess

[crc21209]

I love this team. Probably my favorite Spurs team ever. I'm fucking depressed. Tim deserved better. Those last 28 seconds of Game 6 are going to haunt me forever...

[spurtech09]

still love the spurs....some love and respect for the spurs.....definitely champs in my heart.....

[Bruno]

Props to Spurs for an amazing season and congrats to the Heat for this title.

What makes basketball a so great sport to watch are these crazy moments like in game 6. It truly sucks when you are a fan of the team that is on the bad end of these but you had to deal with it because you, of course, can't always be on the good side. Spurs had these magic moment like in 2005 with the game 5 but this year, they didn't get that luck.

And, thank you, timvp and Kori.

[TheGreatYacht]

After TD missed that hook shot and rimmed out, I started to feel the LOB trophy slipping. Heartbreaking to watch Duncan see his 5th ring slipping away. I wanted him to go out as a champ. Fuck Manu and Pop. Manu please retire. We can use your salary to sign a couple of big free agents. I'm so pissed off and sad for TD. Manu and Pop just made look LBJ have a Jordanisque performance and DisneyESPN will be hyping him all year long and the Lebrontrads claiming him better than MJ. Thanks for the three rings Manu. Time to go.

[Robz4000]

Great season. We know Leonard's the real deal, Green despite his flaws became a household name, and we know Splitter's limitations. IMO Spurs have one more shot next season with a bit of luck and the right offseason moves.

[aksyunstar]

Thanks Spurs. Its a disappointing loss but its been a pleasure to be your fan. Win or lose will still always root for you guys. You're still the champs:lobt2: for me no matter what. Again, thanks for a great season. SpursNation for lifeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!! YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!! GO SPURS GO!!!

[UnWantedTheory]

Ugghhhh. I was fucking fuming for a good 10 minutes! Fuck it. Now it's time to move on to offseason hopes. Always the possibility of next year.

[Holden_Caulfield]

we are the 2013 champs in my mind.

[rascal]

We were better team and I cannot believe we lost :(

Indy took those assholes to 7 games. We had ppl disappearances miami had fuckin bettier.


Sorrow

Heat have James, the best player on the court. They were the better team because they won the clutch games 6 and 7.

[fotan2]

proud of you spurs. the guys just gave me hope every time they are on the floor, its not over until next June.

[Fireball]

What makes basketball a so great sport to watch are these crazy moments like in game 6. It truly sucks when you are a fan of the team that is on the bad end of these but you had to deal with it because you, of course, can't always be on the good side.

This is what I thought the last couple of days ... this is what sets Basketball apart from all other sports. Crazy stuff that is hard to believe when you got the bad end of the deal ...

[Slomo]

Hell of a season, Spurs. Hell of a season.

Thank you.

And thank you to Spurs fans.

I'm sorry.

This tbh.

[GuerillaBlack]

Damn how can Duncan miss a point blank layup like that. Now he has to go deal with that divorce. I don't think he will be on suicide watch tho. Only ginobili.

[KaiRMD1]

Dear San Antonio Spurs,

It was a tumultuous season that turned into a beautiful post season run. You guys are the best no matter what but the better team won. See you all next year.

[m33p0]

:toast: thank you, timmy, for a great season.
tim and leonard were great tonight.

[limlsy]

Thank you Spurs for the wonderful season.

It truly was a hell of an effort. Very, very proud of our guys.
They fought with the defending champions- led by the greatest player in the universe- right to the very end.
Thanks for always doing things with dignity and class right to the very end.
You will always be winners in my book.

[Spur-Addict]

Almost had it!!! It's ok, great run while it lasted this year.

[polandprzem]

Fuckin arrogant bastards. The HEat.



Spurs had their chances as JVG just said. Fuckin away game. We should win the series 4-1 for sakes. How come we lost so many players during the series? First Bonner, then Splitter, then Ginobili, then neal, then green, then parker ...

[024]

The effort was there, that's all we can ever ask for. The talent disparity was too much, no need to regret anything.

[peacemaker885]

Thanks Spurs! Lets regenerate during the summer and then make another playoff run

[nickbroken]

Great season, thanks for everything and fighting until the end. I couldn't have asked for more.

[dbreiden83080]

Good job guys. It was a great season. Bunch of players had bad games. Not fair to put the loss on one single player

Amazing season.

Just very sad we could't finish

:depressed

It was an amazing year I will never forget or get over.. Duncan deserved number 5, he earned it, he bled for it and fought for it.. Damn you Pop.. God Damn you...

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Thank you Spurs for POUNDING THE ROCK until the very last second and against all kinds of adversity. You are a credit to San Antonio and to professional sports.

I will always remember this season fondly even though you stumbled at the final hurdle.

GO SPURS GO!!!

:flag:

[circles_eternal]

Damn, this one's gonna sting for a while.

Thank you, Spurs, for another unforgettable postseason run. It didn't end the way we wanted, and the bad guys won, but...it was a hell of a ride.

I wanted this so badly for TD. Too bad they just couldn't get it done.

[Kool Bob Love]

The whole team fucking sucks. End of an era....... it was fun I guess

This guy has to be "pink" for this. You "guess" this era was fun??? FUcking clown it was more than fun you cock sucking phaggot.

[Oh, Gee!!]

Its just a game. earlier tonite a family friend passed away at a young age leaving behind a husband and two young sons. nba is just entertainment, and it should be viewed as such.

[elbamba]

I would like to see most of this team return, including Manu for one last run. Hopefully we can get a draft pick that can come in right away

[SpursFanaticInVegas]

Im not even mad....life goes on....just wasnt mnt to be

im with this. did anyone expect spurs to beat the heat 4 months ago? ZERO of us did. Getting to the finals and getting late in game 7 is overachieving

[notcool]

Thank you. Spurs. The ultimate goal is to get a championship. Sometimes Basketball god is not on your side. Still need to cherish the achievement and to understand your weakness. There is regret but our joy does not solely depend only on the ring

[elbamba]

I also wanted to say thanks to Timvp and Kori for this excellent site. I appreciate the threads and thoughtful insight to this great team.

[RD2191]

Spurs just need to get younger talent. Timmy is a beast though. Luv ya 21.

[stelleroseSPURS]

I just want to cry right now.

[adonis827]

I am always believing in my spurs win or lose- not sure if timvp can say the same. He should be fired in this board :D

Now onto next year- hope TD still has some left in his tank because I don't ever think we can make it far without TD.

[Viva Las Espuelas]

I've got nothing but love from them. I know Tim is going to beat himself up tonight. Great season that wasn't supposed to happen. Until next year, gentlemen. <----meant for the team :tu

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

I'm actually not even mad bro, tbh. They delivered an amazing series. A few tweaks here and there and they're right back in it.

[spursfan09]

Next year lets just activate Timmy for the playoffs. The rest of the team will get us to the playoffs

[siraulo23]

game 6 really prepared me to take this loss well...

but i know it's gonna hit me after a couple of days but yeah amazing season

[Spurs_Be_Beastin']

HEARTBREAKING. Seeing duncans face in those final moments almost brought me to tears, He definitely Deserved another one, I cant believe Tony just disappeared when we needed him most, Heartbreaking..................................... . ..... just horrible. Thanks for a great year tho Spurs....

[intlspurshk]

Thanks for their effort. They actually played above their abilities and hence no complaint and just compliment. Nevertheless, I don't want the cap space wasted on Manu as SPURS desparately need another go-to player. Manu did not owe SPURS for his past contributions and SPURS did not owe him neither. SPURS have to move on and try to find another go-to player to win another title for TD. SPURS needs to move on and so does Manu. SPURS also need to find another good assistance coach to wake Pop up.

[spurraider21]

Thank you for the season timvp

here's to you :toast

[capek]

Right there with you, friend.

:toast (emoticon needs a frown but you get it)

[HankChinaski]

Tough loss. I can live with a game that went down to wire and not a blow out. We had our opportunities with last few possessions in the last five mi items to tie it up and take the lead. Ugh. Time for off season and see where the chips fall after that.

[skulls138]

Thanks Spurs!!

[dylankerouac]

Great season, tough loss. We could not match their firepower at the end, they hit clutch shots. Amazing how close we were despite that. Great effort all around.

[dylankerouac]

And with my 700th post, thank you Spurs!

[EVAY]

Hell of a season, Spurs. Hell of a season.

Thank you.

And thank you to Spurs fans.

I'm sorry.

Don't be sorry. Noting to apologize for. Thank you is appropriate. And we will always be with you, mes Spurs.

[romain.star]

Game 6 was painful, Game 7 was sad

[mudyez]

Thank you Timvp. Thank you Spurstalk!

[Tmac3]

Wish Tmac could've got it, I'm devastated

[stelleroseSPURS]

Thank you, Spurs. ��

[Harry Callahan]

Manu got old and Tony got injured. I'm certain that the TP from the prior series and the first game of the finals would have been enough to win this. Manu was nothing more than a complementary player most of the season.

I'm so sorry that they come up just short - they would have been legitimate, worthy NBA champs.

[Boomersgold]

Hell of a season, Spurs. Hell of a season.

Thank you.

And thank you to Spurs fans.

I'm sorry.

For not posting post game grades during the playoffs? :lol

[Spurtacus]

It was a great season but this loss is going to sting for a long time. I'm very glad to have gone and seen an NBA Finals game in person.

[NRHector]

Thanks Spurs
