The near-steal

[ShoogarBear]

Who else was yelling at the screen when, on the pass from Manu with 24 seconds left, Westbrook came across Tim's blind side on the double team? How many other times have we seen the Spurs lose the ball on that kind of play?

Little things make all the difference.

Thank god Timmy isn't a loser like Karl Malone tbh.

[spurraider21]

i wasn't worried. manu isn't known for crucial turnovers

yep..thankfully he isn't a deadbeat pedophile, too..

That one wouldn't have been on Manu, though.

Yeah, I yelled "Oh , that was close!"

[Jenks]

Not just on the initial steal attempt, after he started to recover I was sure he was going to grab the ball out of Tims hands from behind, but he went up with the ball too fast for that to happen. Maybe he heard all of us yelling at our TVs

[Spurs 4 The Win]

When i saw that i was terrified that westbrook was gonna swipe it and go the other way, it seems like Tim didnt notice him and the ball was just barely out of his reach. Fortunately he didnt get the steal, and the rest is written into San Antonio lore

I thought it would be stolen. Tim himself told the media he didn't know RW was even there until mid-shot.

Yeah, if I knew how, I would have posted it.

Oh boy. I cursed a second at the screen after watching that play and didn't believe that Duncan will manage to beat the little men (Jackson & Westbrook) double team after nearly getting stolen. And the great man made the bucket to my relief. Only for annoyance to take over after Miller made that stale, "Old Man Riverwalk" drawl.

Here's the play

[Old School 44]

I was worried about Westbrook steals the last few minutes. I was thinking to myself "no careless cross court passes" and then Green does exactly that. And then this play...so close to a turnover. BUT I knew we were DESTINED to win this game, once I saw both Diaw and Ginobili have rebounds basically fall in their laps while they were on the floor.

[myhc]

I saw that. WB tried to steal the ball twice and missed both times. The rest is history.

[Capt Bringdown]

Can't not stop watching this. The BB gods were with us on this one.

[davidbowie]

I still have no idea how we won last night

One of those nights where I can't even remember anything except the final plays

I love being happy

[The_Worlds_finest]

My feed dropped right after that time out

[Drachen]

You weren't the only one, I freaked out too as it was developing

[unleashbaynes]

Me and my friends were yelling at them to get the ball to Tim down there....couldn't believe they had such a mismatch. Tim is just always gonna score on that matchup. Period.

[gospursgojas]

WB almost got it from behind, then on the recover, THEN almost blocked it.

like that doesn't NOT happen for a reason

[Seventyniner]

Only on the third time I watched it did I realize how far Westbrook strayed off of Green.

The "oh " look on Jackson's face as Duncan went into his shot was great. Or is that just his normal face?
