Hypothetical: Do Spurs win le in new format against MIA last year?

[mando6599]

It's been changed to 2-2-1-1-1, do we have a better chance in MIA game 5 than in SA? Your thoughts? Sorry if this has been hypothesized already.

I feel we may have been out in 6, even after taking game 1.

Go Spurs Go!

The past no longer matters.

Learn from it, adapt and win in the future.

Move on, my friend.

[mando6599]

Sure it does, it's not always fun, but it massages the mind to think of things like this.

Build a bridge, my friend.

So you're saying forget the 4 les we've won, and the 3 other possible les we may have won, if? No thanks, I have to share my fond Spurs memories with my not-so-fond memories to keep myself straight and honest.

Not crying, dude, just throwing out a hypothetical I guess you didn't care to answer, which is fine.

No. You take my comment too far.

Your bad.

You learn from mistakes- not victories. You hold on to victories.

You don't get that? I thought a simpleton would get that.

Too bad for you...

OK, Plum, chill out and stay on topic, dude.

Right on.

My apologies. I came on too strong.

We are, after all- fellow fans of the same team.

I feel if we were to have had HCA in the Finals with the 2-2-1-1-1 format, we'd win, for sure.

Maybe.

Ginobili was having a terrible time dealing with their ultra-aggressive defense.
Parker had injury issues toward the end.

Location had nothing to do with either those.

You and I both know it should have ended with Game 6.

I do like the format change, though.

It's progress for the better.

[Captivus]

I dont think we lost because of the format, no way.
Everybody knows why we lose, some bad coaching decisions, bad FTs, a layup that didnt go in, 2 amazing 3 pointers...
Unless theres a reason that would have prevent that from happening, then no, other format, same result.

[james evans]

i don't care what format it is or where it's played. it could have been played in my backyard. as long as popovich does his ty subs utions and ginobli is turning the ball over, the results are the same.
