Duncan giving one back will be an image as well we'll hold onto.

you're a lost cause man.
We got skunked. Yours was in the ing case last June and you had to go and get it and give to the Heat.
Your capitulation is duly noted.
Didn't you learn anything from Kenny Rogers? You never count money at the table. You did, you were wrong, now you act as if an event undid itself. The game wasn't over, the series wasn't over, we just had a 5 point lead with obviously enough time left to give up 5 points. we gave up 13 points to TMac in just a few seconds.
Spurs have given up 5 point runs in less time than 28 seconds before. Why is this one not just a 5 point run?
It was in the case, D. Christ, you ed up. So what. We all up. It's a wound, an open gash that was never sutured, but, it's closed, the scar tissue rough and jagged. We all have wounds in our lives. Yours just happens to be from regular life & 6.
You're just fortunate you did it to yourself. They didn't do it to ya. They couldn't beat you the best day of their lives and they knew it. And you knew it. That's why last Sunday was imminent and matter of temporal exhaustion. That is not your redemption, but, your salvation. That keeps you from "taking up the gun and turning it on yourself."
6 was a disaster, but what better course of redemption than to return to the big dance, only to utterly destroy the 2 time champs?
End of the day Cub, it's 5:5, with all the tiebreakers going to Tim, who has never held his team back in the same manner Kobe has been doing.
You can keep harping on 6... You can keep bringing up Pop's system even though you never resorted to such before, but you know it's all a big coverup from 5-5... As you always say, all that matters is making the playoffs and winning your last game. Kobe has nothing on Duncan and you know it
The psychology you're trying to use to establish this schtick is pedestrian; Make a false statement, claim it doesn't matter just so you can establish that statement for posterity. Nuh uh. If you go back to last June you'll see my take on it and it's accurate and has been my stance consistently. The game was lost in OT. We never had it in the bag. It was tough, sure, but we didn't give it back regardless how it felt to you or anyone else.
& that's because your Kirby lodged this:::
Kirby's averages from the 2004 Finals:
2004: 22.6 ppg, 4.4 apg, 2.8 rpg, 1.8 steals, .6 blocks, 3.6 turnovers, 38% shooting
Daddy's averages from the 2004 Finals:
2004: 26.6 ppg, 10.8 rpg, 1.6 apg, .6 blocks, 63.1% shooting
Daddy tried to put that trophy in the case, but your Kirby chucked it across enemy lines at a 38% clip. Christ almighty!
I remember. But, you cocooned then and you remain ensconced there. 28 seconds and up 5. It was over. But, your coach knew better and ed it up. D, you obviously need what you're selling. God bless ya, son. I've never been there. I never had to go to the case and give one back. It'd probably kill me.
& your shooting guard knew better and lodged this beaut:
You're light one that was supposedly destined to go in the case, all because of your Kirby. Your regrets are your own.
I admire his system. I wish we had that system and it worked like it works for you.
& I called the ball last June for this June. It was me, bub. I ain't like you guys. The truth is the truth. I didn't repudiate the Spurs last June because I hate them like you'd a done if the tables were turned. No. I saw what had transpired and immediately cited it. And I wasn't alone, by God. But, I was alone to call it last June. Now, NOW everybody calls it this June. Yeah, the mother ers. And I'll tell ya why. That way they got two bites at the apple. First bite was a clean bite, an exclusive bite for Miami. They waited until this June to get the second bite by permitting the Spurs to expectorate they're umbrage for what befell them last June. Well, me. I said all that a year ago. I was first. And by God I was exclusive.
Now, as to the 5-5, I told you guys last June before the Finals what the rules were. You had the stars aligned and dotted all the i's and the t's and I was preparing the Caddy for the trip to L.A.
"You're driving there with what?" - Girl
"I haven't got time, Katie. This is something I have to do. I made promises. I have to go. Now make me a goose liver sandwich and pipe the down."
28 seconds later, hat in hand I pulled the Caddy back in the garage, grabbed the goose liver and headed for the CPU.
The bag stays where I chartered it. And that is just the way it's gonna be.
Kobe: 5
the tired old bag Duncan: 5
Now,
Let us proceed...
Just doesn't have the same ring to it without Duncan at 4.
It feels forced now. Desperate. The words feel limp entering the ear, where they once had punch.
Sure, it ain't 5-4, but, I abide the rules. You ers won't.
You change the rules at your convenience, and it loses it's effect. The simplicity of 5-4 annoyed even the most disciplined of fans... But lodging the system feels really forced especially considering the lakers resounding lack OC success outside of Phil's system
Phil's was not a system, it was an offensive set. This is old ground, but, I'll trod it again, you stubborn thing, you:::Pop's system is all encompassing, from the negotiating table, to the PR room, to the locker room, to the court, to the executive offices, on & on. What, what the do you want me to do, repudiate it like you did our back-to-back? No. Absolutely not. If I do that then I'm like you guys. I ain't like you guys. The truth is the truth. I have no control over it. I just see it and state it. I don't hide from it like you fellows do. I'd admire it though it was something I did not want and I loathed. If you can't see the freedom in that then I feel sorry for you.
When the lakers got their last two, they deserved itPERIOD. You won't find a post of mine saying otherwise. I never brought up a system to deme grate the achievements of the individuals. It's just fascinating that you've waited until Duncan-5 to lodge the system card even though you never had before.
Because it never worked, 21.
The acquisition of Leonard and his development was the catalyst for me to cite the system. I cautioned my fellows a year ago that he was going to be a problem. The rendering of Diaw was another catalyst that Pop mined over the course of two seasons. The belief in Splitter and the delivery by him cannot be discounted. The Socialistic approach to money and playing time is how Socialism performs in a vacuum. These are crops of Pop's system and the harvest extracted.
So is it about winning your last game or is it about your personal life...or about your regular season stats? Make up your feeble mind.
What is "deme grate"? Do you mean "denigrate" or are you using some fancy Latin terms?
Probably typed it wrong and my phone went haywire with the spell check tbh
Once again, you're being chicken . This "system" excuse you're lodging is just a desperate shield 'twixt you & the sandwich.
Let us proceed....
I thought I learned some new legal term.
