Yep, I don't doubt the team will show up tomorrow night. I just hope the first half they stay close.
I was telling my wife this last night...
If the Heat would play to their ability every game, they would be undefeated. When they suddenly decide they want it, and play intense D and O, they are completely dominant...What they lack is mental for ude. They are as emotional as a teenage girl.
Yep, I don't doubt the team will show up tomorrow night. I just hope the first half they stay close.
I still can't believe. I'm also a huge soccer fan and yesterday was the worst loss ever, soccer/basketball. I can't believe.
But we have another chance. I think the guys can recover and we'll get this .
I'm still in complete shock. It just doesnt seem fair. Tim deserved better than that ending last night. Today and tomorrow are going to be painfully long days. At first thought I wanted nothing to do with a Game 7. Now, I feel like the Spurs are the better team and can get it done. The only guys who played well last night were Duncan, Diaw, and Leonard. Tony played like up until his big 3 and the turnaround shot in the paint. Manu was absolutely horrible, no other words. Green was shut down. The bench didn't really provide anything. And yet, they were up 5 with 28 seconds left. Another thing to note is that Wade hardly played in the 2nd half. He has to be really be hurting. And I don't care how young LeBron is, you know his ass is tired from last night too. The weight of the world will be on his shoulders tomorrow night. They used just as much energy physically and mentally as the Spurs did last night.
yes! The Heat got lucky, now let's see if lightning will strike twice. All the years of battling together will pay off.
it, game 6 is over now and on to game 7. It will be close and I know everyone will be playing well, the teams are very evenly matched. We hit our 3's and play tough D and we will be champions.
miami was facing elimination, they played like it
san antonio was not facing elimination, they played like it.
we played like , and still controlled it until we gave it away. that was our game to lose. the heat didnt beat the spurs soundly, they had to scramble an improbable turn of events to even force OT
game 7 spurs are now facing elimination, they will play like it.
this one is far from over. people think spurs are outta gas from gm6? that goes both ways, heat could've blown their load just to force a gm7. heat gotta play a lot better too b/c they played their hearts out in game 6 and still had to rely on OUR missed FTs and OUR missed O boards to jack 2 improbable threes in 20 seconds to even force OT.
i'd say it's neck and neck, and the spurs are not going to go quietly into the night.
Maybe. In any case, i'm not concerned about Manu. I don't think its possible for him to play worse. Just as bad, maybe, but worse?
I was more worried with Timmy and he came out today fired up. I think he wants it BAD.
First thread of yours i've agreed with whole heartedly in a while. I've been saying to all of my friends the reason I'm really confident going into game 7 is I truly believe we are the better team. I've always heard from analysts that there's a point in a series where both teams know who the better team is, and even though the spurs lost, I feel as if that was made pretty obvious last night. I expect Duncan to give it his all once more and for Ginobili to have an insane bounce back game. I can't imagine what more the heat could do besides have their shooters get hot, and hopefully they shoot as they have most of the series.
Tim Duncan just had a taste of what defeat at that level feels like. If you think he's not going to go ballistic to win Thursday, you are insane. He's PISSED. He wants it bad. Will it be enough? I don't know, but Timmy is not the players I'm worried about. If he can will the ball through the hoop, he will.
I had no problem sleeping. Waking up was hard because I had stay up late to witness that crap.
I slept like a baby. The Spurs went from champions to footnotes in 50.6 seconds. Teams don't win game sevens on the road. I never thought that the spurs would have not one, but two possessions to seal a championship with either a rebound or a defensive play and leave their best defender and rebounder on the bench for both of them.
I'll be watching every second of the Spurs' 30 point loss on Thursday night.
Co-signed.
I just wanna cry. We has the NBA le in our hands. We let it slip away. I want to yell at Pop for yanking Tim. Our tallest player on the court was 6'7 I don't understand it. I feel like Pop out thought himself, it feels like a move the Spurs would never make. Why didn't we in foul??? Why would we let Miami shoot another 3??? I just don't get it. That wasn't Spurs basketball. So many things went wrong. We led the whole damn game, and let it get away. How, how, how? This is worse than .04. This one, we were NBA Champions and we blew it. The trophy was ours.
I have no faith in a Spurs victory as long as Manu is on the team. You people are forgetting that he is a detriment to the team, not an asset at this point. He cost us the le. No amount of faith or "I believe" statements can change the fact that he sucks.
I understand that people feel an almost supernatural attachment to the guy, but it's exactly that kind of sentimentalism that killed us yesterday.
Pop should have pulled him when it was obvious to everyone (especially our opponents) that he is incompetent.
Why would any Spurs fan want him back next year? There aren't any basketball reasons.
Tell this to Pop please who is willing to live and DIE with Manu.
I had lost all hope last night but I'm feeling better now about Game 7. Agreed that Timmy is going to play his life out. Win or lose I'm going down with the ship and then I'm moving on. The Spurs have consumed my life since the playoffs started and I've been ignoring my family and my own well being.
I have no confidence for tomorrow. That was just a brutal way to lose.
And I sure as don't want Manu back. This will be the 2nd le he has cost us. He's done more damage than good and it's a certainty at this point in his career. He just needs to go away.
Spurs can't win game 7.
Even if they don't get blown out by 30 and quit during the first quarter like I expect them to, Pop will find a way to lose the game. I've called him the most overrated coach of all time and he proved it last night.
Mentally tough? I don't see it. Even if they are, it won't help. Neal will still leave shooters, Duncan will still not get the ball or be benched, Parker will over dribble and be benched, Manu will still turn the ball over, and Pop will still be there with game-losing decisions. Whether it's leaving the inbounder unguarded to get a clean pass in, or benching one of the all time greats . . . Pop has never and will never win without the more talented team. Because he needs the talent surplus to cover his mistakes.
It's a disgrace that the Spurs are now without question the biggest chokers of all time. And turned Lebron into a bigger legend.
Shameful.
Parker 6/23, that not gunna go again.
Big day for Spurs coming up.
The Spurs will be victorious Thursday night. Spurs are the better team. The Heat wont be able to muster up enough energy to win tomorrow. The Heat gave everything they had lastnight, they'll have nothing left. The Spurs are a machine, they play with the same intensity every game. The Spurs will bring it tomorrow, Parker wont play like , Manu will come through, Tim is Tim, Kawhi will bring it as always. We're gonna be partying Thursday night.
Believe
Miami is already planning their victory parade and ordering cigars. They think this is over. That's our advantage. If we come out tentative and scared they'll bury us. But if we come out and go at them full force, that's our only chance.
Bust 'em in the mouth.
