Other: Defensive rebound :(

The 40 foot 3 pointer by 1 legged CP3 in game 7

[Johnny RIngo]

Frenchie's retarded fastbreak attempt. If we drain the clock and wait for a better shot, we're looking at a 5 or 6 point lead. Parker, being the low IQ player he is, rushes it and it results in a Clippers three that ties the game.

Not to rag on the guy cause I love him, but one of Kawhi's many missed layups in game 7. Multiple opportunities to go up by two possessions and the ball would just not cooperate with him.

[Silver&Black]

The 37 times during the series that we didn't box-out Jordan...

:pctoss

Tony losing that rebound

That gets overlooked. DG got the ball to TP who promptly lost it.

The 40 foot 3 pointer by 1 legged CP3 in game 7

Right, since we lost by one shot at the end, that prayer heave that CP3 put up at the end of the quarter was a unbelievable lucky three points they shouldn't have had so we would have won---all other things staying the same.

However, he made it and the Spurs lost. I'm not much on picking individual plays out of an entire game and saying, "AHA! Eureka!" To place so much weight on one play--even a missed FT with no time left--essentially means that the entire game meant nothing at all.

All plays are important and interrelated to one another but it's fun for fans to argue about this play or that, the time out that was called--or wasn't, etc. In the end, all you can really say is we won or we lost.

Every play matters...uggh that shot clock bullshit....oh well.

The first hack-a in game 6

Agreed.

I thought it would be a push this year for the Spurs to win again, but it doesn't look like there's a dominating team in these playoffs.
Given the less than intimidating playoff field, perhaps the Spurs were one goofy coaching gimmick away from having a legitimate shot at 6, which is such a goddamn shame.

Nah the way the team was playing this year they'd have just pulled some stupid shit in some other round and lost.

Looks like he tipped it

[DrunkTXLabrat]

losing to the pelicans and missing out on the 2 seed.

[Gervin44Silas13]

Pop and his shitty game plan the whole series

[Gervin44Silas13]

That was the back breaker there


losing to the pelicans and missing out on the 2 seed.

[spurs10]

Nah the way the team was playing this year they'd have just pulled some stupid shit in some other round and lost. I don't think they wanted to throw any games , but I believe Game 6 was a sign they were mentally not all there.

[Godbama]

[Russ]

It was death by a thousand cuts.

Any one of them could have prevented it.

Starting with that ridiculous Portland OT game.

Just wasn't meant to be.

[spurs10]

Knicks game.....uuuuggghhh!

[EIC]

Either of the Parker miscues late in Game 7.

Player bias always trumps reading comprehension.

I knew after watching that game we would not be repeating this year. Absolutely no fire at all.

[Obstructed_View]

The one that allowed the Knicks to win in overtime.

Spurs just weren't good enough this time around

I thought of this one, too. Considering Kawhi didn't step up as the team's best player, it's a valid criticism, tbh.

¿Como?

[Beaverfuzz]

losing to the pelicans and missing out on the 2 seed.

Nope, losing to the Knicks or the Cavs...Peli's were hot and wanted to make the playoffs. Not like they were a scrub team.

[Beaverfuzz]

The one that allowed the Knicks to win in overtime.

There you go.

GAME.

[spurs10]

I knew after watching that game we would not be repeating this year. Absolutely no fire at all. Yeah it was hard to witness. I'm surprised by how much fire they had in Game 7. They bring that intensity to Game 6 at home and we'd still be playing. I don't think they they had the mentality to keep playing.

Definitely not through 4 series.

[spurs10]

Throw in Detroit....yeah the Pelican's were uber motivated and fighting for their lives. We shouldn't have been in that position, but that loss must have had a heavy impact on them. To drop from 2 to 6 overnight.....is kind of a cruel blow.

[spurs10]

Yeah the Pistons too, but it is what it is.

[Capt Bringdown]

Every thing old is new again:

McHale told TNT's Tracy Wolfson that he decided to start hacking early to "change things up" and try to take the Clips out of their game.

It worked for a little while, as the Rockets led through the early stages of the second quarter. But as the free-throw attempts piled up, McHale's gambit seemed to backfire, as the Rockets lost both their early shotmaking rhythm and any semblance of belief that they could stop the Clippers' offense without hugging Jordan immediately after an L.A. inbound. And in the third quarter, Doc Rivers' crew proved the shaken Rockets right. --- more ---> (http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/nba-ball-dont-lie/clippers-blitz-rockets-in-hack-fueled-horror-show-to-win-game-4--take-3-1-lead-051008492.html)
