[peskypesky]

Can you believe that was the first time Tim got fouled on a shot tonight? lol

[Darkwaters]

Gooden is a dumbass. The guy had no fouls in the first half and fouled out still.

[Jimcs50]

Hit the FTs!!!

Bron bron did, you do it too

[black/silver rook]

Both teams should have a win subtracted.

[Spurs Brazil]

Tp 33333333333333333333333333333333333333

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Why does Tony follow up a great three with a stupid turnover?

[MaNuMaNiAc]

well at least Manu is going to have 1 or 2 points... disgusting play by Manu

[peskypesky]

Oh my fucking God!!!!

[yeahone]

[ChumpDumper]

Wow, WTF are the Cavs thinking? No time out?

[hitmanyr2k]

:lol :lol @ Lebron choking and giving it up to Verajao. He's gonna hear about this for a LONG time.

[CubanMustGo]

Gino you'd better hit the gotdamned FTs now

[baseline bum]

Manu, you better fucking make these two.

[ClingingMars]

I'm having trouble breathing now...manu please don't make this interesting

-Mars

[Strike]

FUCK LEBRON!!!! :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol WHAT A FUCKING MORON!!!
:lmao :lmao :lmao :lmao :lmao :lmao :lmao :lmao :lmao

[G-Money]

Lol Tipical James He Doesn't Want To Blow The Last Shot. So He Hands To Side Show Bob? Lol

[itzsoweezee]

parker, how do you make such a clutch play and then make such a stupid boneheaded play back-to-back?

[ballhog]

Mike Brown=bad coaching

[black/silver rook]

White= clutch!!!!!!

[Budkin]

Manu's only points might be the biggest. That is if he can hit them.

[yeahone]

come on manuuuuuu

[DudleyDawson]

FREE THROWS!! NFliujvrndiljvbgndj,zxdkhrfvbkdijhbcovlzisfch

FREE THROW BITCH!!

[TampaDude]

Huge 3 by Parker...but the Cavs answer back...

[duncanchick21]

[yeahone]

[CubanMustGo]

Ot ...

[peskypesky]

Manure's playing for the Cavs tonight.

[TPnumber1]

manuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu clap clap clap :D

[resistanze]

Cavs should sign Manu to an extension.

[hitmanyr2k]

Ginobili's worst game ever...bar none.

[Spurologist]

Worst game by Manu

E
V
E
R

[Budkin]

Manu fucks us again.

[dtrain]

Manu gets a chance to redeem himself and misses the first one. But the second one is in and he gets points on the book.

[davemaniscool]

trap Bron and Gibson

[MaNuMaNiAc]

jesus... he's just... I don't know what to say

[JustSpurs]

Fuck!!

[Tek_XX]

1 point manu

[bdictjames]

Manu-ManiA!!!

[Warlord23]

Fucking Manu has done everything in his power to sink us today

[Leetonidas]

I'm kinda hoping this game goes into OT just so it won't be the lowest scoring Finals game of all time.

[Capt Bringdown]

Biggest FTs in Duncan's career

[DDS4]

Ugh. Manu!

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Manu.... :depressed

[TampaDude]

Gino missed one...yup...the fix is in...we're going to overtime...I'll betcha a billion $$$ we're going to OT!

[Jimcs50]

No threes!!! And Manu, do not foul a layup or a jumpshot!!!

[dbreiden83080]

Great Manu does nothing all night and then can't even get 2 FT's for us.

[CubanMustGo]

Sideshow Bob had nobody close enough to him to even try a flop, no wonder he was lost

[Budkin]

You know they are going to hit the 3 or James is going to get the 3 pt play... it's just that kind of night... and Manu fucked us.

[iflyabeech]

im gonna call it...lebrick misses the game winner!!

[ballhog]

Ginobili finally on the board but misses big free throw. Man.

[DDS4]

Do we foul?

Question.

[JustSpurs]

Need a quick steal here!

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

I'm kinda hoping this game goes into OT just so it won't be the lowest scoring Finals game of all time.

Are you fucking nuts? I'll take the Spurs win. Fuck the record books. That's the most braindead post in this thread.

[Tek_XX]

To think if Manu shows up today, we're not sweating this right now.

[bdictjames]

Biggest FTs in Duncan's career
What are you talking about?

[ClingingMars]

I'm having flashbacks to Game 7, WCF...

-Mars

[Cant_Be_Faded]

WATCH FOR THE MANU GINOBILI FOUR POINT PLAY FOUL

i swear he's going to fuck us over this game

[peskypesky]

Popavitch is a fool for keeping Manure in the game tonight. Shoulda stuck with Barry's relatively hot hand.

[Jimcs50]

Ginobili's worst game ever...bar none.

And still we win....so who cares?

[TampaDude]

No threes!!! And Manu, do not foul a layup or a jumpshot!!!

Yup...if LeBron drives to the basket, let him score...NO THREES!!!

[Budkin]

Wait... let's see if Manu can get the foul on James while he hits the layup!!!!!!

[Admidave50]

Manu SUCKS!!

He deserves F++++++++

[Darkwaters]

Play the 3 point line and just leave the lane wide open

[Capt Bringdown]

Goddamn, pull Manu off the floor...don't let him kill us again like last year!

[davemaniscool]

defend the three. no OT

[TPnumber1]

cmon manu

[rasho8]

Why isnt Finley getting the inbounds?

[DudleyDawson]

5 pages back I said ft's would kill us tonight...

[bdictjames]

Okay.

[Budkin]

Time to redeem yourself Manu....

[hitmanyr2k]

He better make these...serious pressure here.

[CubanMustGo]

Why Did They Throw It In To Ginobili? Where Was Finley ???

[duncanchick21]

common manu

[davemaniscool]

Why isn't Finley in the game

[rasho8]

Cmon Manu Please!!!

[JustSpurs]

One!

[JustSpurs]

Two!

[bdictjames]

How many TOs do the Cavs have left?

[MaNuMaNiAc]

at least Manu made those 2

[rasho8]

Oh thanks god.....

[TPnumber1]

fisher's time :o

[Spurs Brazil]

2/2

Manuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

[dtrain]

Gino gets both of his FTs....

[yeahone]

manuuu clutchhhhhhhh

[davemaniscool]

defend the three

[Budkin]

Ok Manu... you're not off the hook yet but almost.

[hitmanyr2k]

Ginobili upped his grade from F- to F+

[CubanMustGo]

Whew Gino!

Last time out for Cavs

[TampaDude]

Cavs are gonna tie it up and win in OT...

[bdictjames]

Manu's three points might actually be the biggest.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Come on Pop. Learn from the TMac game a few years ago. Let them take a dribble or two and then foul before they shoot.

[duncanchick21]

manu at least makes these, we just need this stop

[ClingingMars]

odds favor us, cavs been horrible from 3

-Mars

[Jimcs50]

Manu is clutch...anyone that doubts him can suck my fat one

[iflyabeech]

lebrick misses cavs lose!!!! watch it

[DudleyDawson]

Whew! OT you go to hell. You go to hell and you die!

[Spurologist]

[yeahone]

go spurs go

[Budkin]

For God's sake get on Gibson.

[CubanMustGo]

Spurs have foul to give ??

[rasho8]

This has been... I dont know it seems more like shitty offense for the Spurs more than great defense on either end.

Nerve wracking game of terribleness.

[Tek_XX]

All the Spurs need to do is watch ABC to see what the Cavs are going to do

[davemaniscool]

no OT

[easjer]

Color me shocked right now. I really thought we'd lose this game.

I can't believe we might actually win this shit.

Please don't foul.

[Budkin]

It's all heart Spurs!!!

[Silver21_Black20]

believe!!!

[ClingingMars]

what was the point of that 20?

-Mars

[DDS4]

Horry should be in there!

Not Barry!

[AnotherArgie]

It's funny to listen to manu's brother comments on argentinian TV. He just wants to change his last name.

[Capt Bringdown]

Going to OT?

[aaronstampler]

He's been pretty terrible, but he only took seven shots, and he at least led the team in assists, so he did something.

[Budkin]

Please Spurs please.

[ClingingMars]

horry had better be in here! this is his time

-Mars

[TampaDude]

Okay, Spurs...NO WIDE-OPEN THREES and you win...give them the lane.

[iflyabeech]

no fouls on 3 pt shot!

[davemaniscool]

I'll call it. Spurs win

[ChumpDumper]

He's been pretty terrible, but he only took seven shots, and he at least led the team in assists, so he did something.A+

[TampaDude]

Lebron is going to drive and kick it out!

I agree.

[CubanMustGo]

Watch the inbounder

[DudleyDawson]

......

[TPnumber1]

yeeeeeeeeaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh 3-0 !!!!! sweep

[Strike]

Jesus, players have bad games sometimes, even in the finals!

Relax!

[iflyabeech]

I fucking called it bitches Spurs win!

[yeahone]

[ClingingMars]

YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH BABY IT'S SWEEP TIME

-Mars

[Jimcs50]

Yes!!!

I told you they would win

[rasho8]

I can not believe we just won that... one more to go.

[CubanMustGo]

Whew !!!! Spurs 3-0 in the ugliest game in history

[Budkin]

Fuck Yeah Spurs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Lebrick tries to flop his way to 3 FTs.

Bowen tried to foul :lol What a wreck.

Spurs win!

[DudleyDawson]

It's Ooovvvaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!

[mVp]

Yessssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

[iflyabeech]

dumbfuck ball hog

[Mr Brown]

SPURS! :spin

[Spurs Brazil]

Spurs Win!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[dtrain]

James is crying about the foul after the buzzer.

[hitmanyr2k]

DAMN!! Why does it have to end on controversy. Lebron definitely got fouled on that and still almost made it :lol

[Strike]

Bruce tried to foul but no call.

NOT IN THE ACT!!!

Too fucking bad.

[ChumpDumper]

Whichever team bribes the refs last wins.

[iflyabeech]

there is no I in team bitches!!! GO SPURS GO!!!!!

[easjer]

Yeah, LeBron sure did get fouled. What was BB doing?

[yeahone]

go spurss go

[ballhog]

Lots of uncalled fouls in the game. LeBrick needs to quit bitching.

[Budkin]

We just won it all!!!!!!

[MaNuMaNiAc]

that was disgusting basketball! On both sides

[DudleyDawson]

lol, Bruce trying to intentionally foul.

[aaronstampler]

A+


ha ha. God forbid you just enjoy the win Chump.

[Tha Carter]

Its The Muthafucking Spurs U Bitches!!!!

[Silver21_Black20]

Go Spurs Go!!!!!!!!!

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

That was the worst FInals game I've ever seen. But I'll take the win.

[TampaDude]

Wow...what a crappy game...I can't believe we won... :dizzy

[bdictjames]

Good birthday present for me, a win in Game 3.

A weird win to say at least, but hell I take it.

[yeahone]

i witness a team go spurs go

[Budkin]

We did not deserve to win this game. But I'll take it.

[phxspurfan]

I don't like my team winning games like that (LBJ did get fouled.), but I'll take the win, as Dallas took theirs against us last year.

[ChumpDumper]

ha ha. God forbid you just enjoy the win Chump.God forbid you could take off the kneepads for one game.

A++

[davemaniscool]

Bron fouled but not in the act. game over

[midgetonadonkey]

Bring out the pinche brooms!!

[Admidave50]

YEs Baby! Bring the 4th ring!!!! :)

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Lebron did get fouled. He took the shot, because he responded to the contact, But HE CAN'T PLAY FOR THE CALL!!!!

so he has to live with that.

[Capt Bringdown]

That was punishing...brutal.

[Mr. Body]

Can they just play that one over? It was disgusting.

[iflyabeech]

lebrick misses cavs lose!!!! watch it
HAHAHA I see the future!!
:spin :spin :spin

Go motherfucking spurs go!! :downspin: :downspin: :hungry: :hungry:

[rasho8]

An ugly win is still a win I guess... Im going to bed.

[TampaDude]

Bowen clearly fouled LeBron prior to the act of shooting, so SUCK IT, CAVS!!! :lol

[ballhog]

Crazy. No way they would have given him 3 foul shots on that one.....Van Gundy is out of it.

[dbreiden83080]

Wow you can debate whether or not it was in the act but Lebron got fouled no doubt about it. Awful officiated game that got tapped off with the worst one of the night.

[boutons_]

ugly ugly ugly November bball, but it's a W.

[hitmanyr2k]

I know one thing for damn sure. You'll never see that game on ESPN classic.

[peskypesky]

WOW. Spurs win, after all that garbage. I guess i should be happy, but somehow I'm not. I mean, wtf was Bruce doing there at the end? Trying to give Lebron 3 ft's??

[DudleyDawson]

I'm happy we won, but I'm embarrassed for the game of basketball right now. That was shockingly bad.

[Texas_Ranger]

Go Spurs Go!!

[CubanMustGo]

Only thing I can think is that Bruce thot we still had a foul to give.

Makes up for all the missed calls against TD tonight.

[aaronstampler]

God forbid you could take off the kneepads for one game.

A++


What part of "he's been pretty terrible today" did you have trouble reading?

[yeahone]

well we played shit and we won i expect a sweep...imagine thsoe cavs fans woh paid all that money and all they gonna witness is a sweep

[smeagol]

Fugly, fugly game.

Manu . . . uber fugly!

[Soul_Patch]

yea no way that is a shooting foul...but regardless, he cannot play for the call. Bad officiating...really bad on both sides of the court...very VERY shitty game overall.


a win is a win i guess.

[midgetonadonkey]

Awww yeah dropping loads all over Lebron's headband.

[Tek_XX]

Bruce Bowen MVP!!!

[iflyabeech]

Bring out the pinche brooms!!

Word my Bishop buddy, Word!!!
:flag: :flag: :flag: :makemyday :bking :sombrero: :sombrero: :danceclub :danceclub :danceclub :danceclub :owned :owned

[4001 STEREO SPUR]

Can they just play that one over? It was disgusting.
No.

It wasn't pretty but we won
:elephant :elephant :elephant :elephant

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Can they just play that one over? It was disgusting.
:lol

I know! I demand a do-over!! you call that entertaining??? Only an overtime would have saved the entertainment value, but the damn Cavs had to SUCK ASS!

[rasho8]

I can see ESPN now

"Cavs robbed by no call in final seconds: Spurs luck way to sweep."

[black/silver rook]

cavs did their best to slow and junk up the game, but the role players save the spurs 2nite!!!! Hope the big 3 reflect on the game and come out on game 4 to crush cleveland.

[TampaDude]

We did not deserve to win this game. But I'll take it.

Yup...I'm amazed that we actually won...but I'll take it, too! It was a fugly game, but a win is a win! :toast

[JustSpurs]

Well, that was a foul but shit happens, Lebron.

[peskypesky]

Are Spurs gonna sweep the Prince?

[Obstructed_View]

Looked like a foul with continuation to me. The Spurs dodged a minor bullet, moreso if LBJ could hit three free throws in a row with any regularity. The Spurs played to their competition tonight. Yuck.

[AnotherArgie]

We did not deserve to win this game. But I'll take it.

Neither team deserved the win. This game should have been re-scheduled.

[efrem1]

Gas up the riverboats boys!!!!!

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

This game makes me mad. I want my FINALS TO BE A GOOD FINALS. NOT THIS CRAP..I feel like I lost one game of enjoyment for the Spurs winning game.

[easjer]

I still feel like I feel asleep some time in there during that horrid, awful, terrible game and dreamed it.

Whatever. Win's a win. I really thought we were going to lose, both before and during the game.

I can't believe the Spurs could actually sweep the Cavs. Incredible. I'm torn between thinking there is no way we don't close it out and thinking there is no way the Cavs don't get one game.

[Viva Las Espuelas]

it's about time the ass clowns at Foxsports are showing Spurs Live up here in Dallas.

[Obstructed_View]

If the Spurs play like that they could lose four in a row, folks.

[Strike]

I never doubted the Spurs would win!!!

Bowen knew there was no foul to give!!! He was trying to foul before Lebrick shot the 3 so he would only get 2 FREE THROWS!!! The Spurs were up by THREE!!! If Lebron makes TWO free throws, they are down by ONE giving the ball back to San Antonio.

It's called strategy.

Or Lebrick makes the 1st one and intentionally misses the 2nd in hopes of an O board and put back for OT.

[NO LIMIT ARMY COMMANDER]

3-0. :smokin

[crazyspursfan]

spurs are taking this one to the house 4-0 baby 4-0

[Manu20]

This is the definition of an ugly win but I will take it.

[themvp]

1 more.

Just win 1 more game.

[efrem1]

Go fly a kite ESPN!!!

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Bruce Bowen should win the Finals MVP , if the media is SMART and knows the real reason behind WHY we're winning.
