I doubt its luck that King Bosh, Wade and Lebro are all beasting at the same exact moment imo.
its by design. When KING bosh shoots 65% while Wade and Lebro do their thing, they are pretty much unbeatable
Spurs role players will play worse on the road, and Miami's will play better at home.
That's gonna be scary. Really hoping for a split or else the series is obviously over.
Spurs are the better team, but I don't think Miami needs luck to win... Spurs playing sloppy is all Miami needs to win. Bench Chokenille and Put Diaw in the starting lineup. Spurs got this. Bellineli is quickly becoming my most hated Spur right up there with head Jefferson. This is a Zeta player. What a ing chocker, was hoping he would prove everyone wrong about him. Kick this mother er in the teeth and sit him in the 13th chair on the bench... what a ing loser in this entire playoffs. I'd rather have Bonner play before this does, and that is saying something.

truth Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Disaster IMO
Spurs need to split in Miami or it's fishing time
The Heat role players like Wade and Ray Allen(will make those open 3s he's been missing) should play better at home, I don't think any of their other role players will change, tbh..
Spurs role players will probably play worse on the road, unfortunately(Mills and Green, offensively)..to be fair, I don't think Belinelli can play any worse, he's always awful..
Think spurs will win game 3 or 4?
Probably a better shot to steal game 3 than 4 Tbh
If Spurs win this, Bellineli needs to get on his knees and open his mouth wide while he is accepting his ring. He still has time to redeen himself, but he has been a little the entire playoffs thus far. Gonna take at least 3 monster games from him for me to even come close to forgiving him.
Disagree. Miami is a solid and experienced team.
Ultimately, every team needs a bit of luck here or there to win it all.
Miami definitely doesn't need luck. Best player in the world in his prime, various other HOFers wanting a cheap and easy ring. When The Decision happened, everyone knew what was at stake. Spurs need to play with serious belief, maybe even a miracle, to win it all imo.
i think this series will catch up with miami as it progresses. spurs should run them through screen after screen and wear them down
Miami is the luckiest team ever tbh... up there with the New York Giants. They get so many lucky rolls, lucky shots, and opportunities that the Spurs and other teams never really get.
Think about all of the old guys that bailed out LeBron. Had Ray Allen not hit the 3 in Game 6 he'd be chastised forever for missing that last shot he took to tie so badly. Not to mention Timmy missing two easy layups to tie the game at the end of 7.
The Heat are damn good but more importantly, damned lucky. Whereas the Spurs are one of the unluckiest teams in the league in terms of events that occur in games. 0.4, Manu foul, countless circus shots by scrubs going in the basket, 6., etc...
I disagree with the article, Miami is better than most people think ... they now played together long enough to have the same chemistry the Spurs have and make clutch plays ... of course it helps to have the worlds best player on the team. One can say in game 2 this and that happened and that's why the Spurs lost ... well, the Spurs also did other things way better than in game 1 (less turnovers and more offensive rebounds), and this time it was not enough. I just hope Kawhi can stay out of foul trouble the next games, otherwise my hopes are slim for the Spurs to win this series ...
The Heat have won 11 playoff series in a row.
They've won 11 (I believe) home playoff games in a row.
They haven't lost two playoff games in a row in like forever.
If that's luck . . .
No they don't need luck to win they have been to the finals 4 years in arow even though it's the east it's still hard to do
The Heat have had luck against the Spurs, but they've also been clutch in a lot of big situations, whereas the Spurs have not, hence the Heat having the ability to win the majority of the close games between the two teams.
Every team needs some luck to win it all along with hard work and talent
The Heat are ing garbage. Mother ers play in the tiest conference in NBA history. Their biggest comp out East has been the Pacers.![]()
Spurs have been built on luck- lottery luck-Duncan
Agree that Spurs are the better team, but disagree that Miami needs luck to win. Lebron is the best player in the league by far. One player that great can make a HUGE difference. There are only 5 guys on the court at a time for each team. When one of your five are that much better than everyone else, you can overcome a better team sometimes.
Miami doesn't need luck to win, they just need the Spurs to beat themselves, which we almost did twice. We're lucky it's not 0-2, but we got this .
I agree with this. The Spurs killed themselves in game 2 by missing critical free throws and wide open looks.
Spurs will call upon that bitter taste in their mouth from last season. They got this.
I am a passionate Spurs fan and have always been so ever since they first moved here.
Having said that, I have learned not to invest my emotions ridiculously overly so, so that it destroys me when and if they lose.
That is why last year, it being a devastating loss, was not the end of the world because I have suffered this before with this team. Rather I am always ready and able to be pleasantly surprised when they win it all.
That is my hope always, because they are my team.
