.4 was semis so Id go with Pops up in game 6!

Depends on whether we win this series or not.
Last night, .4 was fluke crap, nothing SA could do. Last night was an unbelievable choke job by Pop, one that will taint his reputation.
When Tony drained those two clutch shots I was so hype.. When Leonard missed that free throw I knew their was still time.. We gave them life.
This hurt worse.
Game 6 will mean nothing if we win tomorrow. Seriously, who will be talking Game 6 being a horrible loss if spurs win. Saying that if only the spurs had won so that we could have had the river parade on thursday instead of on saturday, dang those 2 extra days hurt.
no, win game 7 and game 6 will make game 7 feel THAT MUCH GREATER!
So to answer your question, .4.
But if we lose game 7, then game 6 will definitely be reflected upon.
Last night if they lose game 7 is number 1 and will be for all time...
Duncan's Spurs yes Tony
Tim ing Duncan's Spurs were 28 seconds away from the 5th Ring..
Thanks Pop...
last night because the .4 was the conference finals and it would have not ended the series had we won. we were 28 seconds away from a le, probably just one free throw or rebound away.
Game 6, regardless of the outcome of Game 7.
The reason -- the Spurs did not collapse in the .4 game. They fought back from an 18 point deficit and almost won the game.
game 6 last night and it's not even close. this is the nba finals. we were 1 rebound away from it. IF we lose tomorrow, this will be the worst loss in spurs history and will likely remain that way...unless we get a game 7 that replicates it.
This. People won't remember this if we close it out tomorrow.
Ask me Thursday night around 11:00.
Last night's game will be remembered as one of the most legendary Finals games of all time regardless of how Game 7 plays out. But the meaning of it will be completely different depending on what happens tomorrow night.
Up 3-1 against the Washington Bullets, we are up in game 5, we score to put it on ice, the Whopper gets called for a moving screen. We lose the game and the series. A pure and simple choke job after. Meltdown. The first ABA team is going to the finals led by George Gervin. Nope. We are considered soft, Robinson is too nice, abuse by Hakeem, we are lovable losers...
Then 1999 brings in the spoiled followers of a winner. Take a break.
Game 6. You win the last 28 seconds, you win a le. .4 still required winning the western conference finals and the NBA finals. No guarantee the Spurs would've won that year.
0.4 will always be "worse" in the way that it was far more improbable than what happened to us last night.
But, if we lose Thursday, Game 6 collapse will be far worse overall. It was ours.
Last night was the tiest. .4 feels like nothing compared to this. Us blowing it is worse than anything the other team pulls out of their ass. I'm a Horns fan and this feels like the 2008 Tech game with Gideon dropping the easy INT.
Last night was worse. They were rolling out the trophy, cordoning off the court. It doesn't even compare to 0.4.
Very true. I meant should we not be able to pull off game 7. We win this all goes away
Game 6 was worse.
Even if the Spurs had won the 0.4 Fisher game, they'd only be up 3-2 in the Western Conference Semifinals.
Still could have lost in the Semifinals. Still could have lost in the Conference Finals. Still could have lost in the Finals.
Finally, I simply dislike the Heat a lot more than the Pistons.
There is simply no comparison to what happened last night. None.
Last night was worse. I spent the day thinking if we lost it this year, this would be maybe #6 or 7 on the worst Spurs losses list. But this feels like #1 right now. We got so close.
I'm pretty sure Miami wins tomorrow so Game 6 will easily be the worst loss in franchise history and arguably the worst loss in NBA Finals history. It will haunt us for years to come.
Sure, the game will be remembered but the fact that the Spurs lost a 5 point lead in less than a minute will be largely forgotten.
