2014 Playoffs - The Finals, Game 5 - San Antonio Spurs vs Miami Heat

[BanditHiro]

the difference in the lead has been complete horseshit calls that have given them around 6 FT attempts.

[SupremeGuy]

Well Miami(Lebron) came out in God mode, we missed open ass shots, the refs fucked us, and we're still only down seven after the first.

[SanDiegoSpursFan]

Bad start for the Spurs, good start for Lebron. Spurs need to match his energy and a certain guy needs to really chill out since he's trying way too hard and its hurting the team.

[TampaDude]

Congrats to LeBron James for an amazing, historical comeback. You earned it this time, my friend. Hats off to ya!

I'll take my #6 jersey in XXL, thank you. :hat

[NASpurs]

All that for a seven point lead. :lol Spurs got this.

[mclinejr]

It could be worse.

[hommeaetage]

it's clear that the league has their own agenda, but we gotta man up

[Quiet Strength]

If the spurs start making their open shots then not even the refs can stop them.

[sammy]

Parker please pass the ball! Stop over dribbling! Get Kawhi & Green involved!

[bobcatfan4life]

Just make your wide open shots.

[100%duncan]

Those 2 fouls on Manu. Zebras knew he was going to take over, ooops foul. :lol

[dg7md]

Congrats to LeBron James for an amazing, historical comeback. You earned it this time, my friend. Hats off to ya!

I'll take my #6 jersey in XXL, thank you. :hat

:lmao

Going to be a cuck and have your wife wear it like the NBA thread suggested?

[PingPong]

I'd rather put Baynes against Birdman than Tim who is playing like shit since last game.

[therealtruth]

We're in good shape. It's been all James. He will go back to normal.

[Texas_Ranger]

Is someone really surprised that Parker didn't come to play. Thats a well known fact since the 03 finals.

[ffadicted]

refs and james are killing us

[TampaDude]

Spurs are playing tight. That's death against the Heat.

[myhc]

Lucky to be down only 7. I'm not usually one to complain about refs but there's some bullshit going on tonight. Don't even touch Lebroj and it's an and 1?

[florige]

My Gawd Wade is beyond awful. And he wants a max deal?

[BatManu20]

Dear God what an awful quarter. Please wake up Spurs. Tony and role players need to step up

[timtonymanu]

Spurs looked a little shell shocked and they are only down 7. Just need to bring back that intensity in Games 3 and 4.

[RD2191]

Gotta pick it up on D. And lol NBA with the obvious rig.:lol

[Warlord23]

Could've been much worse. Parker needs to get his head out of his ass. Just keep up the tempo and let's see if Lebron can play all 48 mins at a high level

[mclinejr]

Remember guys, LeBron's "legacy" is on the line tonight. That's what we're up against. However, LeBron will learn that he can't win this game on his own.

[Manu20]

Miami played a perfect quarter and still only up by 7......Spurs got this!

[SupremeGuy]

Hopefully james is tiring himself out.I'm hoping so... he looks pretty fucking annoyed having to do everything himself right now...

[loveforthegame]

Why not

Oh I like it but still surprised me the crowd recognized him like that.

[maverick1948]

Game would be a lot closer if the freebie calls for Miami were not there. 1 for James and 2 for Cole. Cole traveled. Could have been a 5 point swing.

[neboat]

Let's win this spurs!

[Capt Bringdown]

the difference in the lead has been complete horseshit calls that have given them around 6 FT attempts.

Bullshit. Both teams are 4 for 10 from FT line.
Miami came out of the gates with history on their minds. Spurs are playing like softies.

[therealtruth]

Parker please pass the ball! Stop over dribbling! Get Kawhi & Green involved!

The ball movement has been non existent. Even when we score there hasn't been much. We need to go back to moving the defense. They're eventually going to get tired.

[Spurs21Fan4Ever]

After that awful quarter, to only be down by 7 is pretty great.

[myhc]

We're in good shape. It's been all James. He will go back to normal.

He's averaging like 35+ points per game in elimination games. Doubt he will go back to "normal"

[jag]

These refs are just getting started

[Shastafarian]

rofl

[florige]

Spurs are playing tight. That's death against the Heat.



Down 7 with LBJ playing out of his mind. I'll take that anyday of the week. I expected them to come in fired up.

[313]

Just make your wide open shots.

[Splits]

Can we have a separate game thread for all the cliffjumpers? TampaFag, BanditCumguzzler, robdiaz, etc?

[cd021]

These refs are just getting started

Game 2 over again.

[sammy]

Let's go spurs ! Take over from here on out!

[100%duncan]

KAWHIIIIIIIIIIIIIII TAKE US HOME MA NIGGA

[Blizzardwizard]

Even if the Spurs somehow pull this out, Adam Silver will pretend to give the trophy to Peter Holt, only to turn it into a weapon and start hitting Spurs players over the head with it.

[TampaDude]

Remember guys, LeBron's "legacy" is on the line tonight. That's what we're up against. However, LeBron will learn that he can't win this game on his own.

He won't have to win the game on his own. The refs will deliver the threepeat, folks. I was hoping they would call it fair, but it's clear that the NBA won't ever allow Duncan to get #5, because they have to protect Kobe's legacy as well.

[Spurs21Fan4Ever]

I like that play!

[ploto]

Parker forgot there was a game tonight...

[loveforthegame]

So pretty.

[SupremeGuy]

Leonard!!!!!

[Fireball]

clearly this has been about close out jitters by the Spurs ... I do not see anything different in the heat other than a little more energy and the Spurs missing shots they made thus far. James playing too many minutes will bite the Heat in the ass at the end of the game ... Go Spurs Go!!!

[Johnny RIngo]

Nothing more pathetic than watching Parker in a closeout game.

[100%duncan]

KAWHIIIII OVER LEBRON U BITCH FACE

[ace3g]

the HWSNBN play

[Hemotivo]

Kiwi!

[loveforthegame]

Leonard not fucking around tonight.

[OrEmuN]

Kawhi trying to match Bron !

[SupremeGuy]

OMG LEONARD! Yes!

[r0drig0lac]

leonardbron james

[100%duncan]

Green sigh...

[TampaDude]

Can we have a separate game thread for all the cliffjumpers? TampaFag, BanditCumguzzler, robdiaz, etc?

Go home and fuck your mother some more, faggot.

[ploto]

Leonard wants to Be MVP. Watch TP sulk...

[loveforthegame]

Green missing too.

[BanditHiro]

it's not fair that we can't make open shots

[Spurs21Fan4Ever]

Green to go off in the second half.

[ElNono]

come on Danny

[emanueldavidginobili]

Running sets for KL wow

[r0drig0lac]

missing open shots....

[Hemotivo]

Nothing more pathetic than watching Parker in a closeout game.

yeah; but he's gonna play better in the second half

[Baam]

Come on Bronbron you know da rule :lol

[100%duncan]

Parker smh.

[SupremeGuy]

Please take parker out

[SanDiegoSpursFan]

Someone tell Parker to stop

[Capt Bringdown]

Goddamn. Parker's killing us.

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Fuck Parker

[loveforthegame]

Parker fuck you.

[Juggity]

Stop shooting tony

[dg7md]

MVParker fucking up the game...

[Spurs21Fan4Ever]

Parker pass the ball!

[SupremeGuy]

TAKE PARKER OUT NOW!

[Crookshanks]

The Spurs just didn't move the ball well in the 1st quarter. All that beautiful ball movement from games 3 and 4 was nonexistent. If Spurs start playing their game, they can overcome the hot start by Miami. Spurs are only down 7. Also, it's not like Miami shot lights out in the 1st quarter. They didn't even hit 30 points.

[01Snake]

FUCK PARKER!!!!!! PASS

[ace3g]

Parker better realize soon that he doesn't have his jumper

[PingPong]

There goes the spurs run. Duncan and Parker = recipe to disaster.

[TE]

Horrible just horrible

[dg7md]

lol Danny back to choking ways.

[loveforthegame]

Green sucking.

[100%duncan]

Fucking Ray Allen fuck you bitch.

[Spurs21Fan4Ever]

Green and Parker are awful!

[pikkiwoki]

remember last game (or was it game 3?) when parker was all like, "I have to sacrifice my game for my teammates"

lol what a joke

[BatManu20]

Tony Parker pulling for miami apparently

[TE]

Parker is such a piece of shit man.

[florige]

WTH is Parker doing out there trying to blow the game for us sheeesh!!!!

[ElNono]

Enrique sighting, come on son

[Manu20]

Tony please wake up!

[r0drig0lac]

parker's killing spurs

[SanDiegoSpursFan]

Offense isn't that bad this quarter other than missing a bunch of shots and Parker trying too hard.

[sammy]

Fuck Parker stop shooting!

[RD2191]

PARKER GTFO YOU SCRUB, TRADE THIS CHOKER

[SpurPadre]

TP, would you like a heat jersey right now?

[baseline bum]

Parker needs to go to the fucking bench.

[313]

I love Tony but he looks bad out there

[100%duncan]

Mills has outplayed Parker... Even Cole has outplayed Parker... smh

[ffadicted]

It should be like soccer where the ref can allow the play to continue if it benefits the other team tbh lol

[BanditHiro]

Green and Parker are awful!

Green has been great on the defensive end. There is no fucking excuse for Parker to play this much of a bitch

[NASpurs]

This game looks bad for the Heat in the long term. the lead is fucking fool's gold

[SupremeGuy]

Can parker please take himself out now?

[Kool Bob Love]

Classic finals parker.

[hommeaetage]

Parker has money on the Heat

[Slydragon]

Green suck last year during close out games in the finals and the trend continues.

[Southwest Texas Fan]

Parker is holding on to the ball to much!

[Darius Bieber]

Looks like this game is for the Bench. Mills needs to get Parker out quick... Parker is not for this game tonight.

[Texas_Ranger]

if only we had Claxton

[Hemotivo]

remember last game (or was it game 3?) when parker was all like, "I have to sacrifice my game for my teammates"

lol what a joke

"great leadership"

[Capt Bringdown]

No confidence in Parker right now. I'd feel better if Patty or CJ were on the court now.
He's laying an epic fucking egg.

[spursparker9]

Play Mills or Cory please !!!

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

Tony and Green please stop sucking

[objective]

Speedy would be performing right now.

[mclinejr]

Parker and Green need to come out.

[Floyd Pacquiao]

Gotta get patty in quick, tonys choking

[emanueldavidginobili]

Tony Parker...

[TE]

This game is for Miami's to lose and Spurs to win. That's how it looks right now. Bad signs all around.

[Uriel]

Regression to the mean is coming to bite us in the ass.

[myhc]

Tony just killing us. Can't hit open shots, not moving the ball. And where the hell is Timmy?

[spurastic]

Parker will be fine. geeeezzzz

[BatManu20]

Tony, Green, and Mills.... Please wake up. It's game 5 of the NBA Finals. Thanks.

[Juggity]

I'm not worried yet. Spurs still keeping it close and slowly letting James wear down his energy by doing everything for the heat.

[SanDiegoSpursFan]

Parker is trying too hard. He thinks he has to do everything + he's just off.

[sammy]

Bring in Manu & mills!

[Blizzardwizard]

Robert Horry would have 7 three pointers by this point with all the wide open looks the shooters have not been capitalising on.

[spurs1990]

Pop isn't going to pull Parker. Just better hope he starts hitting in the 2nd half.

[dg7md]

Bring in Patty... Cojo if Patty is stale.

[RD2191]

We need Green out there to keep Wade in check. Parker is giving us shit on both ends. He can gtfo.

[100%duncan]

Green's doing good on D you pieces of shit. And manu has 2 fouls.

[Shastafarian]

You can't be mad at them for missing open shots. They need to keep taking them and they likely won't shoot 29% as the game goes on. Holy shit you'd think Parker and Green were DLeaguers. Keep pounding the rock.

[loveforthegame]

Give me some CoJo if not Mills. Parker needs another breather.

[Spurs21Fan4Ever]

Chalmers's sucking was contagious.

[jARS mEsH sEt]

Parker, Duncan, Green, Diaw 0-12.

[Uriel]

We can't make jack shit from the perimeter, even though we're getting good open looks.

[baseline bum]

Mills has outplayed Parker... Even Cole has outplayed Parker... smh

Chalmers has outplayed Parker

[SupremeGuy]

And watch, as soon as tp finally makes a shot later on, you're going to have all these currently quiet assholes saying dumb shit like "parker shitting on haters herp derp." lol

[Manu20]

Spurs shooting 29.6%....It can only go up from there right? lol

[313]

Danny, Patty, Tim, and Tony all playing poorly. Only down 7. I'll take it.

[Quiet Strength]

Seriously.. play cojo or patty

[r0drig0lac]

green has the least defense elite parker is simply throwing bricks all night

[spursparker9]

Tony is unbalanced after hearing the MVP chant for Kawhi.

He never had any MVP chant for him

[100%duncan]

Tony, Green, and Mills.... Please wake up. It's game 5 of the NBA Finals. Thanks.
Mills has been good tbh.

[Perry Mason]

Guys TP's shot is off. But they are giving in my space so his shots are it not bad. I hope he or Green wake up, or both. Need a hot shooter.

[PingPong]

Why the hell Pop put Parker and Timmy again, if they were playing like shit? The coach have to figure when his players aren't in a good vibe.

[Capt Bringdown]

This game looks bad for the Heat in the long term. the lead is fucking fool's gold

That's ridiculous. It's a psychological chess game at this point, and right now the Heat's got the Spurs hearing footsteps of last year's choke.

[Mal]

Serious question ? Why LeBron is allowed 5 steps before dribble ?

[TampaDude]

Serious question ? Why LeBron is allowed 5 steps before dribble ?

Because he's LeBron.

[Mal]

Because he's LeBron.

But this shit so blantant. I cant watch it. My eyes hurt.

[dg7md]

Finally going to Timmy. What took them so long?

[Spurs21Fan4Ever]

Pretty move!

[ElNono]

lol here comes Beli

[BatManu20]

Rebound the ball

[Capt Bringdown]

Who's gonna step up for the Spurs? That's THE question.

[Texas_Ranger]

why why why why why is belinelli in this fucking game???????

[BatManu20]

Belli sucks. Get him out now. Dammit Pop

[100%duncan]

Fucking Belinelli, Wade automatically drives to the paint. Wtf Pop.

[313]

Beli in the game omg

[dg7md]

Marco in — Pop waving the flag.

[BanditHiro]

fuck Beli...Wade sees red when he has Beli on him.

[Mal]

Another bullshit bail out call.

[Baam]

:lol didn't expect Beli to get taken advantage of... Oh wait...

[Spurs21Fan4Ever]

Stupid foul trouble causing Marco to be in.

[Juggity]

Wade is the most ref-reliant NBA player of all time tbh...

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

Beli is so bad at staying in front of his man

[sammy]

Bailing has been wade! Fuck refs!

[mclinejr]

Marco's in the game....

[TE]

Terrible

[Capt Bringdown]

You can talk about team ball all you want, but in games like this you need somebody to grow some fucking balls and make it happen.

[loveforthegame]

If Green wasn't playing so poorly Marco wouldn't be out there.

[objective]

Now this game is OVER. Marco = LOSS

[pikkiwoki]

Wade is the most ref-reliant NBA player of all time tbh...

[NASpurs]

That's ridiculous. It's a psychological chess game at this point, and right now the Heat's got the Spurs hearing footsteps of last year's choke.


Spurs are shooting under 30% and only down by five. What fucking game are you watching :lol

[100%duncan]

Belinelli, please shit on us all.

[ffadicted]

bad shot for belli, should've gathered himself outside the line

[313]

Big shot beli

[Crookshanks]

Every single time a Heat player drives to the basket, the refs call a foul. Spurs players have their arms straight up, but they still call a foul. Going to be hard to play defense if the refs keep this up.

[spurastic]

Belli show these fools for what they are.

[loveforthegame]

Shut me up Marco.

[100%duncan]

TIMMY D MVP MODE.

[Juggity]

Tim fucking Duncan!

[loveforthegame]

Timmy.

[sammy]

Timmy!

[dg7md]

Finally Timmy is taking control... go to him.

[Spurs21Fan4Ever]

Timmy is pissed!

[BatManu20]

Thank you Timmy. The rest of the team, follow suit

[r0drig0lac]

aleluia!!!

[SupremeGuy]

Timmy the Great, tbh.

[SanDiegoSpursFan]

I like the tactic, game is slow and everyone is off so just go to Duncan

[florige]

TIMMMMMAYYYYYYY!!!!

[PingPong]

Finally Duncan woke up.

[RD2191]

Rofl Pop playing Marco.

[Shastafarian]

Wade is the most ref-reliant NBA player of all time tbh...
He really has earned his name DWhistle.

[Capt Bringdown]

Spurs are shooting under 30% and only down by five. What fucking game are you watching :lol

The game that includes the wider context of last year's choke.

[NASpurs]

That's ridiculous. It's a psychological chess game at this point, and right now the Heat's got the Spurs hearing footsteps of last year's choke.

Now three after shitting the bed. Fuck off :lol

[100%duncan]

Please continue putting Haslem on TD, Spo.

[Baynes]

timmeh

[myhc]

Timmy! Welcome to the party!

[jARS mEsH sEt]

Duncan stabilizing things. What a fucking luxury to have.

[shingo_318]

even Marco is better than Enrique.

[spursfanincolorado]

only down three - I'll take that all day as poorly as they've shot so far

[Hemotivo]

Tony is unbalanced after hearing the MVP chant for Kawhi.

He never had any MVP chant for him
if true
says a lot about tony

[florige]

Pop said lets just go with what got us here that simple.

[Floyd Pacquiao]

Ok marco made a shot, now take him out before he gets burned on D more

[myhc]

Slow start but way to fight back

[jag]

Enough of this 4-down bullshit. That's NOT the offense. Move the ball

[SupremeGuy]

Now this game is OVER. Parker ballhoggind and staying in the game = LOSSfify

[Spurs21Fan4Ever]

Wade is the most ref-reliant NBA player of all time tbh...
Harden says hello.

[lofds]

Damn Timmy, we love you. I wanna see a lot more of that!

[jag]

Duncan on Haslem in the post isn't a mismatch.

[Shastafarian]

4 down all day and night

[Richie]

Haslem can't guard Timmy, but Belinelli can't guard Wade.

Seriously, Belinelli can't play in this series, there's nobody to hide him on.

[Fireball]

still do not like to have Belli on the floor ... Manu has two fouls, but cmon

[313]

Enough of this 4-down bullshit. That's NOT the offense. Move the ball
We werent making shots. So slow it down and 4 down

[TE]

Enough of this 4-down bullshit. That's NOT the offense. Move the ball
Exactly. It's not Spurs basketball.

[BillMc]

Timmy take us home man!!

[100%duncan]

Enough of this 4-down bullshit. That's NOT the offense. Move the ball

It's keeping us in the game, no one's hitting except for Kawhi and Manu who has 2 fouls...

[Emperor]

No one's stopping Tim down there. Spurs need to take advantage!

[cd021]

I'm a grown man but i'd probably tear up when he leaves.

[spurastic]

if true
says a lot about tony

I call bullshit! you must be reflecting on youself.

[100%duncan]

WAIT WHAT ALLEN CALLED FOR A FOUL REALLY? :WOW

[SupremeGuy]

So to recap: James started in God mode, we stated in shit mode, parker was fucking us, the refs were fucking us, we couldn't make an open jumpshot; and we're only down 3.

[sammy]

Finally a call against the cheat!

[Hemotivo]

TD!

[100%duncan]

TIMMYYYYYYYYY

[ace3g]

Timmy on a mission

[RD2191]

Play off the D. The offense will come.

[loveforthegame]

[dg7md]

TIMMY IS CLUTCH.

4 DOWN.

[Juggity]

Tim duncan putting the team on his back

[Spurs21Fan4Ever]

Tim Freakin Duncan!

[100%duncan]

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ FREETHROWS

[SupremeGuy]

Timmy eating! Keep serving him!!!1

[100%duncan]

Manu was fouled you fucks.

[BatManu20]

Come on Manu

[ffadicted]

Old man Tim righting the ship

[Hemotivo]

Manu was fouled you fucks.

[loveforthegame]

All that work for nothing. Leonard is a beast.

[100%duncan]

KAWHIIIIIIIII

[Hemotivo]

BANG!

[ffadicted]

LEONAAAAAAAAAARD!!!!! HOLY SHIT this kid

[SanDiegoSpursFan]

Holy fuck that's the first time I've seen him do that

[ace3g]

http://cdn1.vox-cdn.com/imported_assets/2245507/leonard.gif

[Johnny RIngo]

Just don't play Parker or Bellineli and we have a chance to close out.

[Capt Bringdown]

I love that kid!

[Crookshanks]

Finally - no call for the Heat, and the Spurs take the lead!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :flag:

[r0drig0lac]

wow

[SupremeGuy]

Leonard with the fucking pull up 3.

[loveforthegame]

Leonard is ridiculous.
