Fisher has as much or even more confidence than Kobe/Phil
He is arguably the heart and soul of the laker team. Lose Fish and you have a big mental hole.

Dirk Nowitzki, NBA Finals 2006, Game 3 shooting Free Throws to win the game.
Tim Duncan, Western Conference Semi-Finals 2006, Game 7 Overtime getting owned by DeSagana Diop.
disagree.
Choking is a 60+ win #1 NBA seed losing to an 8th seed
Choking is a team collapsing in the NBA Finals after a 2 game lead and 20+pt lead in game 3
losing in game 7 overtime to a younger more athletic team is not choking. For example the Detroit Pistons, did not choke in the 2005 Finals.
Did this actually happen?..Sounds impossible..
Answer the question - Did Hall Of Famer Tim Duncan get owned in overtime of a Game 7 (far and away the biggest of all pressure situations) AT HOME by a guy who for his career averages 2 points and 4 rebounds a game?
want to get even more shocked? those 2 things happened in back-to-back years by the same set of players
if that's not being a choker, I don't know what is
tbh no, it didn't happen. Fat Spurfan needs to put down the enchilada plate and do some research and get his straight before trying to talk crap.
the whole spurs team got owned in that OT. Doesn't mean they choked. They were tired and got outplayed.
Singling out Duncan is pretty silly IMO.
no, it didn't. I understand it's your 2 hour long burrito facestuffing event that most people call gluttony, but people in SA just call lunch, but that doesn't excuse you from posting bull .want to get even more shocked? those 2 things happened in back-to-back years by the same set of players
#1 seed at home got owned in a game 7. chokejob. thanks for playing.
What did happen then?
"In the greatest playoff upset in NBA history, the Golden State Warriors completely dismantled the No. 1 seed Dallas Mavericks on Thursday en route to a 111-86 Game 6 victory in front of a boisterous home crowd. Stephen Jackson played like a man possessed, drilling 7-of-8 3-pointers to total 33 points. Hobbled by a strained hamstring, Baron Davis gave an inspired performance by tallying 20 points, 10 rebounds and six assists, while his former college roommate, Matt Barnes, collected 16 points, 11 rebounds and seven assists. It is only the third time in NBA history that an No. 8 seed has bested a No. 1 seed, and the first time ever in a seven-game series.
Dallas, which won a franchise-best 67 games this season and was the defending Western Conference Champions, was led by Jerry Stackhouse's and Josh Howard's 20 points. MVP candidate Dirk Nowitzki struggled, shooting 2-of-13 from the field, finishing with eight points and 10 rebounds. The Mavs join the 1994 Sonics and the 1999 Heat as the only other top seeds to fall to an No. 8 seed in the playoffs."
not the part you got wrong, dip . just finish your fourth burrito and then try to figure it out. I know it's tough for you to think on only a 3/4 full stomach.
"In what proved to be the turning point of the series, Miami rebounded from a 13-point fourth quarter deficit over the final 6:15 to record a 98-96 victory over the Mavs in front of a sellout crowd of 20,145 at the AmericanAirlines Arena. The 13-point deficit marked the largest fourth quarter deficit overcome in HEAT postseason history. "
Just a question: If the Spurs had beaten Dallas in game 7, would have Dallas choked or they were just tired and outplayed?
Choke. Dallas would have choked a 3-1 series lead.
I didn't expect another answer. So, the Spurs are allowed to take tiredness as an excuse whilst Dallas (in cas they had lost) is not.Choke. Dallas would have choked a 3-1 series lead.
The logic of a Spurs fan: Everything is allowed to be used as an explanation if my team has lost a game. The other way aorund it is not, because I can't allow other teams to get away without being labeled as a choker.
well yea only because Dallas was up 3-1 in the series.
holy . I had forgot how pathetic the Mavs have been.
At least you said only. I'm sure nkdlunch would search for another reason for the whole next week if necessary just for the sake of bashing Dallas.
not bashing Dallas BTW. They are a great franchise.
Just responding to a delusional Mav fan that refuses to beleive those world class choke jobs happened.
The biggest difference for both Duncan and Diop were that Duncan played 49 minutes put up 41 points, 15 rebounds, 3 blocks and 6 assists, while Diop played just 10 minutes and put up 7 points, 4 rebounds and 2 blocks.
So, basically Duncan had to over-exert himself during regulation, allowing a bum like Diop to take advantage of a gassed Duncan during overtime. Oh, and Duncan was playing with PF throughout the regular season and playoffs without rest. But, I'm sure you dumb ass Maverick fans still can't comprehend why he was "outplayed?"
Here's my definition of clutch:
Clutch - Tim Duncan, 4 NBA championships (3 Finals MVP)
Plus, here's what a choke-artist is:
Choke-artists - Dallas Maverick organization, 0 NBA championships

Apparently the education system in San Antonio is even worse than we all thought. I guess it's tough to get in any learning with a 4 hour lunch buffet every day.
