Tony Parker for being such a faggot from Games 3 to 6.

Harden. Guy was the difference maker. He gave OKC just enough to put them over the hump only to turn into a complete scrub immediately following.

There were a couple games where SA was doing well until Bonner came in, then OKC scored like 10 straight points in 1 minute and they took all momentum from SA. But you can't blame just one player, you have to blame all except for Ginobili, Leonard, and Jackson, and Tony and Timmy at times too.

RJ! i have pangs of conscience about his trade, maybe with him we would win the series, we'll neve know!

It's Parker fault. It was, is and will be always his fault.
CoM, here I come.

I blame Boris Diaw. Instead of the reverse layups he made throughout the playoffs and in both games 1 and 2, the ended up kicking the ball out to shooters instead of getting an easy lay-up. Those missed 3's cost the spurs their points

Exactly. I thought LJ's analysis of OKC's long 2 jumpshooting was spot on. OKC were incredibly hot and hit the shots our defensive system gave them, lots of long 2s, amounting to +6pts/gm. That, and KD's general 4th Q dominance, swung the series. It hurts to be beaten by an outlier, but that's sport (and life).

You can't give an offense steady looks of the same kind. I understand you want to take away 3's and points in the point but giving an NBA offense a steady diet of open looks is a recipe for disaster. Yeah they shot a higher than usual percentage but those were wide open looks. The Spurs have to regain that desire and effort to compete on the defensive end regardless of their athleticism.

Actually, a lot of the looks were still contested, and they didn't just shoot a marginally higher %, they shot over 11% higher than their season average, which is definitely an outlier.

I blame Bonner for not being aggressive enough with Pop to get more minutes when it counted. A couple of classic Red Rocket 3 balls could have iced game 6 for the Spurs.

I am not arguing they didn't shoot better than usual. I am arguing the Spurs could have put forth more effort into defending better.

bump
After thinking back, TP underplayed most of game 5 (which is the game that tilted the series in OKC's favor)...
Bench play was also very much lacking in game 5...
:( gary neal

When is that bozo gonna hit a few big shots when it counts? NEVER. I don't BLAME BONNER, he is just horrible and we all know it now except for POP.

Re: If you had to blame one player for the WCF series loss, who would it be?
I think two of the big three's inconsistent play ended up killing them. Along with OKC making an obscene amount of low percentage shots. Tip your hat on that. All you can do.
