    An objective comprehensive view is needed so ......

    You've got a whole contingent who only blame Manu.
    Another group who only blame Pop.
    And another group who blame only Tony.
    While another group blames only Kawhi.
    And yet another group who blames only Danny.
    And still another group who blame only Neal.
    plus another group who only blames Tiago.
    And then another group who says Cojo did not play enough, or too much.
    A couple who say that it is because they did not play Blair.
    And a couple more who say it is because they did not play Nando.
    And a few who claim they should have played McGrady, Baynes, Mills, and Boris more, and Bonner less.
    And even some who blame it only on Timmy.

    Excuse my ignorance in all of this, but isn't that pretty much the whole team?
    This isn't rocket science, guys.

    Does anyone here see how ridiculous and ignorant all this blame casting for the perfect scapegoat is, other than me?
    Other teams' fans must be rolling on the floor laughing at us Spur fans for all the backbiting we are doing to each other.
    They don't even need to come here and troll us because we are imploding in on ourselves!

    I mentioned him above, your contingent is duly represented, as are all the other contingents.
    And all are equally valid in your opinions.

    Your reading comprehension is suffering then, because you must have missed the posts outlining his mistakes.
    You have only yourself to blame for that.
    I'm just basing this conclusion on the posts and logic posted in this forum.
    And that is the facts, Ma'am, not fiction.

    Wrong!
    Go back and read the posts, ........ if you can.
    Don't take my word for it. They are all there in black and white.
    There are Spurs fans who blamed Timmy.
    Whether you like it or not, he was still blamed, their posts are still here.

    You don't read either?
    Didn't you learn that in grade school?
    I am not making any of this up, the fact is that some on here blamed Timmy.
    Live with it.

    i agree. i have seen no such ery anywhere. the blame is on popovich 1st and foremost for the many ty decisions he made in game 6:

    benching the starters in the 4th
    benching duncan on the defensive end
    NOT PUTTING IN THE TOP FREETHROW SHOOTERS AT THE END OF THE GAME
    allowing ginobli to keep playing while he was ty
    not fouling or defending the 3 point line at the end of the game


    the worst display i've ever seen of coaching in a closeout finals game.

    after popovich, i blame ginobli, but if ginobli wasn't in the game, he wouldn't have been fuking up. then he allowed him to play in game 7. there aint a person alive that can pass a 6th grade reading test that didn't know ginobli was gonna play like in game 7. who the didn't know that? if i were the owner of the team, he would never have played in that game 7. i don't blame leonard cuz i knew he was gonna miss one. he was shooting 60% freethrows for the series. shaq shot 50%. would u let shaq shoot freethrows for u to ice the game? i would have had neal, bonner, and green in the game to catch the ball. i've never seen a coach send out a 60% freethrow shooter to finish the game for them. i've never seen it.

    Still regardless of its validity or not, there are some on here who posted statistical logical arguments and opined that Timmy was to blame. They are here in this forum in black and white, they have not been erased.

    My only contention is that so far various Spurs fans have blamed every player on the team plus Pop. Those are the facts. I did not make this up. Again if you don't believe me then go back and read all the posts.

    Listen, if basketball was a team sport you might have a point, but..... Wait a minute, I see. So you're saying blaming one guy is "ignorant?" Of course it is, but some folks wave their ignorance flag with pride. I like to wave another flag, even though it was a horrible sickening experience watching the champonship slip away. "It's a new dawn, it's a new day, it's a new life for me and I'm feelin' good."

    I blame Bonner.
    , why not?
    Everybody else has been blamed, except for the assistant coaches, R.C., and the Coyote.
    Even Stern has been blamed.

    Luck always has something to do with it.

    But did't the Heat also have the 5th ranked defense, and the 5th ranked offense? Not too shabby. It would be really naive to think that did not have something to do with them winning.

    their ranking on offense or defense doesn't have anything to do with us missing 2 free throws, either of which that would have won the championship. it also has nothing to do with them missing 2 three pointers and getting the rebound both times. i blame pop for those defensive possessions, sure. but its hard to look away from the fact that me had 2 free throws miss, when EITHER would have sealed the championship. sasha vujacic did it for the Lakers in '10
