Spurs win the 2013 Finals.
Npe. In our latest deal, the Grizz got great value and capspace (which lead to 8) for Kwames expiring KT. We would have done it again if we didn't get Sterned. So I guess you can call me Bitter Fan because a presumed healthy CP3, D12, Kobe core beats down the current cHeat squad. The owners knew it so we got Sterned.
Also led to 4-0.N
Also, according to you, a presumed healthy Nash, Gasol, D12, and Kobe was supposed to beat down the Heat. You know that wouldn't have happened, with Gasol's softness, Dwight's weak mentality, and the fact Nash is made of glass.
There you go with your failure mentality again. WGAF if you make it to the Finals?
The Lakers had a good team on paper, but in many ways made lateral moves. They were hyped because they play in the nation's 2nd biggest media market. So of course when posters like myself come in and tell you the NBA is about "to grab their ankles and bite their bottom lips" and we end up being swept in the 1st round, of course there will be jokes.

Are the Celtics a greater franchise than the Lakers?
I'll take a big slice of humble pie on my expectations of the Lakers' latest superteam. There is nothing I can say about them. They lost. Now I'm wondering if Jeannie Buss can take over the Lakers from her brother Jim. If that happens, we'll get back on track (eventually).
Back in the 50s and 60s? Yes, without a doubt. Since then? Not in my mind. They have more rings (by 1) and beat us like 9-3 in the Finals IIRC. However, the Lakers have won more consistently throughout their tenure as a franchise than them bums. They have like 1 ring the last 20+ years.
Win or else.
Spurs aren't the Clippers
So you're admitting that there are varying levels of success in the NBA and it's not always about the "ring?"Back in the 50s and 60s? Yes, without a doubt. Since then? Not in my mind.

They have like 1 ring the last 20+ years.
I don't think you buy the idea that there's one winner and the rest of the 28 teams are tied for "last place." I doubt you'd trade a Lakers second round exit for a season like the Washington Wizards had.
Losing in the Finals is still something of an accomplishment. At least the team gave themselves the opportunity to win the le and went out guns blazing so to speak, which is much better than missing the playoffs or getting stomped in the 1st round.
ezau, I've been meaning to ask you the last 5 years, who is the chick in Gary's thought bubble?
Amy Duncan?
Gary Neal was put in a position to fail tbh. This is a pattern the Spurs coaching staff has unfortunately. Playing people out of position is a favorite pastime of theirs. They've been spoiled by the likes of Robert Horry, Brent Barry, et al.
Gary should be planted firmly at the three point line without doing any dribbling of any sort except to drive to the hoop after being chased off the 3-point line.
Amy Duncan?
Ask your soon-to-be-forgotten buttbuddy how that worked out for him in 2008 WCSF when they beat the Spurs by 19, 18, and then 22.
i can actually see the spurs bending over 3 straight games at home....
lol superior coachin was meant to make the difference, so far pop is gettin outcoached by a fkn scrub
It's to be expected that the Heat will make adjustments because they lost the first game. Now it's time for Pop to make a counter-move to whatever the Heat did in Game 2. IMHO, It's time to stay on the shooters and let James beat you by scoring. That was the template that Indiana used last series, and it almost worked if they just have a some shooters.
If you did not watch it then how can you even comment on it bruh? I mean seriously you did not see it, Spurs split 1-1 and go home for three.
I LOL'D.
Jeebus with the goods as usual
I love how there were plenty of Spurfans talkin at halftime about "Miami played their best basketball" "Is this the best Miami can play?", then proceeded to get their pushed in, and completely changed their tune pretty quick. "Well we competed for 2.5 quarters"
no ?This. All of this. Spurs in troublePERIOD.
the Spurs were in trouble even before the serie start you dummie... unless for crazy gnsf upstairs, everybody with a brain understands Heat is an heavy favorite. Going home with the tie is a solid result for a challenger.
-300 points for the unbelievable level of saltiness in det post, s
