Did you see all the turnovers when Manu tried to pass out of those double teams all night?
I didn't notice it in the heat of the moment, but as Tony's driving up the left side of the front court in the final seconds, you can see Timmy trailing on the other side of the court with both arms raised high, as in "Pass me the freakin' ball." Then after Tony shoots the air ball, you only see Timmy for a fraction of a second, but he seemed to give Parker a WTF look, turning his palms upward as if to say "What the was that?" Then he only gives a half-ass effort to help Tony up. Watch closely if you recorded the game.
Do you see what I see? I didn't notice this at all when I watched it live.

parker lost the game imo. once he went hero ball, i knew the game was over even if he hit a fluke 3.
This was easy to see live....Timmy would have had a wide open jumper, top of the key. Everyone on the floor seemed to figure parker was going to try to be hero...td wasn't the only one open either..
Manu needs to sit out game 7. Play diaw more.
Yep.
Parkers Hero Ball possessions were stomach churning.
Even the few times he passed, he left his teamates in horrible position.
Example handing Kawhii the ball in the corner with like 4 seconds to shoot and Kawhii heavily covered.
Manu right now. Pop too. This loss will haunt us for the rest of our days and they're the two to blame.
My point wasn't to on Manu. My point was to show how hard that pass is to make.
Saying Parker lost the game is flat out laughable. He had to go to hero ball. No one else was scoring and the offense was absolute at that point. I can't take anyone who s on Tony seriously. Not after dude hits that 3, gets a steal, and then hits the shot in the lane. Maybe Tony's mistake was passing to Manu on the break and not taking it up himself (since he was playing heroball you know) so that he takes the free throws.
Forget Timmy, Danny Green was wide open on the corner too.
No matter how many times you watch it, it comes out the same way.
Tony was gassed. The sad truth is, the Spurs' bench is vastly inferior to the Heat's. By OT, there just wasn't enough left in the tank. If you go watch the end of the game again, what you will notice is that the Heat were getting good looks, and the Spurs were being forced to take desperation shots. They had more left in the tank by the end. The Spurs did a pretty heroic job keeping it close enough to have a shot at the end. But the Spurs only had 1 FT in the last 3 minutes of the OT, and no FG's. No field goals for more than half of the OT period is going to get you a loss pretty much every time.
Dribbling down into that corner was a mistake. But he thought he was going to be able to turn the corner, or split defenders at some point. He just didn't have the gas left to do it. But by the time he could have thrown that pass you're talking about, he was covered up. It would have wound up like Green's shot at the end.
i didn't notice it until the replay either, but Duncan had his arms up high wanting the ball. He did give Parker a look there as well, like "you tunnel vision muthaf......".
The ones that deserved that angry look from Timmy was Pop and Manu. They have potentially cost us a championship.
Watched it plenty..that's championship defense in case you all forgot..
Did anyone notice bosh hip-check the out of Green like this was the stanley cup finals?
Haha more like a championship gift the Spurs gave you.Your D does not force missed Ft's and although you won't admit it, your D did not force Manu to try re ed passes. Or Pop to suddenly coach like he's spolstra.
tp hero ball gave us the lead but it also cost us
does anyone know why timeout wasnt taken when leonard had the inbound he kinda stalled a couple of seconds there??
It was because the only guy open wasn't the guy Pop told him to pass it to.
One of the things people so often forget is that the players out there are doing exactly what the coach has told them to do.
IDK how you guys could bear to re-watch that tbqh... I just want to smoke weed all day and relax, then take tomorrow as it comes...
We need to win game 7. That's what decides if we deserve it or not.
Maybe because Tony remembered that Tim was 0 for the 4th quarter (and, as it happened, 0 for the OT).
i turned on sports center when i got home last night and lasted about 20 secs lol
I re-watched the last couple of minutes of regulation, which was nauseating ... I didn't dare watch the OT.
It has been replayed a thousand times in my brain since last night.
This. Parker and Duncan were absolute legendary beasts last night. Manu was a piece of and Pop was not far behind.
No ing way am I watching any replays of the end of that game. It's all burned into my brain.
