THE SADDEST DISPLAY OF FANDOM I HAVE EVER SEEN

[davidbowie]

it's a coping mechanism for people with no mental for ude

"i'll predict doom and gloom, and then if it happens i can be like SEE I TOLD YOU...if we win everyone will be so happy they won't give a "

pretty much everyone who does it realizes this too. just leave us be.

The problem is Miami is in the head of the Spurs, and especially now after game 2 loss, Spurs can't endle it, they are done...

, I was surprised that we even got to the finals LAST year, much less this year!

I'm so thrilled with this team it makes my eyes water sometimes. It is why I can't be on this forum during the games…in the event that a game takes a wrong turn, the vitriol against our own makes me want to hurt people.

Whether or not we win the championship this year, this team will always be a wonderful, classy, talented and entertaining group of men playing the most beautiful bball I have ever seen.

Well ing said.

Anyone check out the field goal percentage and free throw? Heat 37-70 53%. Spurs 36-82 43% Free throws Heat 16-21 76% Spurs 12-20 60% iincluding 4 missed in a row in the 4th.

Heat just made their shots, Spurs missed theirs. It's not a matter of there being a team so much better, it's just who plays better. Spurs had plenty of chances. They're more than capable of winning 3 of 5 games.

Beating the Heat will take everything the Spurs have. It will not be a cakewalk. But hard to say that the series is over two games in. Anything can happen. Let's be honest, the Heat are a Lebron ankle sprain away from losing every game the rest of the way. And the Spurs can beat the Heat even with Lebron, but it will be hard as .

Though the cliff diving is annoying it's to be expected at this point. I mean people cliff dive if we lose the jump ball.

I absolutely hate the cliff diving that goes on around here.it seems like over half of the posters seriously have zero belief in their team.

There is one thing to be pessimistic, but another to be plain ignorant. Saying series is over after only losing one game is being ignorant.

And I truly believe a few posters only make these absurd comments to get a rise out of people. Which is why I personally never respond to such idiotic comments.

I think your typical Spurs fan are usually used to going into the Finals as favorites. This is really the first team that has put true fear into Spurs fans since we have ever made the Finals. NY, NJ, Detroit, and Cleveland we were each time heavy favorites everytime going into those series. I mean even the Pistons series I think every Spurs fan knew deep down that we would win that series even though it tool us seven games. This Miami team was/is the first team to defeat us in the Finals, and the only team I think fans have true doubts about. Lebron is the league's new poster boy and it terrifies Spurs fans that he is somehow going to come out on top.

I rarely post here, but regularly browse. this forum has some of the more whiny, emo, overreacting posters I've seen in sports messageboards.

I'm not the most optimistic person in the world, but I can see that this series is winnable.

Calm down, guys.

PS
I love the Spurs so much, I might even visit San Antonio, Texas when I finally move to the US, in a few years.

Yeah, the Heat are head and shoulders better than any of those four teams the Spurs faced prior.

Win or lose, the Spurs give Miami all they can handle. The difference is Miami has owned the Spurs in the nail biters whether it be regular or post-season

I have learned over the years, ever since the Spurs first moved to San Antonio, to never ever give up on them.
Yet I have also learned not to pin ALL my hopes on them.
That way I am pleasantly surprised and happy when and if they win, and it is NEVER the end of the world when and if they lose. And I celebrate their success with the best of them and don't allow their failures to affect me overly so.
After all is said and done, it is just a "game" called basketball, and not a life or death situation, thus I put it in proper perspective.

I remember when my buddy in college said "Spurs are done" when they lost game 1 of the first round series to the Nuggs back in like '03 or something. lol. This seems just like that

Speak for yourself, Im not terrified. Now the Lakers were terrifying but we eventually overcame. Nah, I still believe we will win it all. The problem is they, like you all, were too overconfident after game 1.

I never stated in my response that I was terrified. I just said this is the first team in a NBA Finals that have given us any real problems. When did we ever have to go up against the best player in the NBA in a Finals?

The saddest display I've ever seen was watching Heat "fans" pour out of their arena with more than 3 minutes left, especially after game 6 last year.
