I got over this loss right after game 6
The joy of a win is so temporal.
But the losses, the bad ones, they stay with you and haunt your dreams.
Well, it sucks. Don't think I'm not upset and torn up about it.
I was on the floor, devastated after Game 6. For Game 7, once I saw the Heat have the lead so late, I just shut off the TV and meditated for a while. It sucked, but I couldn't be too upset or angry: just quiet, thinking.
The poster who said it was like suffering and then finally dying was spot on. The loss, although tragic, was relieving in a way, however, I still contend that we were more worthy champions. They played better than us in Game 7, no doubt, but the whole series as a tossup with us coming out more impressive with team play overall.
Anyway, life goes on, and once next season starts, we will get over this and prepare ourselves for another push. We have definite issues with our post-play and mid-range shooting.
We'll be back, there's not a ton of truly great teams in the league.
That's what I said to myself after Game 6. Then seeing how close the Spurs kept it throughout the whole game despite the Heat making all the three's they shot for the game to come down to the last minute and seeing Duncan's hook shot roll off the rim? Pretty sad. I think I'm over it now.
Hard to think that after nurturing the Spurs just to be ready for the playoffs, the easy dismantling of the Lakers in a sweep, the perfect timing for Durant is not in the WCF partly because of Westbrook, No Kobe, the struggle to win against those young guns-Curry & Thompson, the grinding against Memphis 4-0, the Finals 3-2 lead, the 20 sec 5-pt lead just turned into waste
I don't know if the Spurs can get this far again next year. They have to sign somebody who can contribute immediately but should be a quick learner to know the system & who can gel with the other guys.
Disappointed.
Hard to accept that this could be the last chance for Duncan to win a ring.
He might have to settle with 4 rings. And forget about game 6 & 7.
You can see in his face how disappointed he is.
TP lost for words. Manu stunned.
In the next 2 years a new breed of young superstars are bound to rule the league.
Tim, Manu & Pop might not be with the Spurs anymore.
They will retire together, who knows?
But they will retire with heads up for what they had accomplished in San Antonio.
For us Spurs fans, 4 championships is still worth the ride.![]()
I'm already over it, didn't bother me as much as I thought it would. I think SA can be back next year, even better than last year and win.
-Kawhi is starting to get scary good, he's reached all star level and is still growing as a player. He should be MUCH more involved in the offense, the experience he's gained from playing in the finals guarding the best player in the NBA is invaluable. Although this loss hurts him, I think his confidence will explode and transform him into a very special player.
-Green is also going to get much better, work on his handles and finishing/driving ability and he can become much more than a spot up 3pt shooter. His confidence too will grow from this series.
-Sign new talent, get rid of the baggage (Manu, Neal, Splitter), Imagine we had players that actually contributed each game unlike them. The Spurs' great defense should also get better.
I think next year's team is going to be NASTY, we just need a Duncan to keep playing well which I think he can do, that's going to be vital.
This. Get rid of all the trash and sign Jarett Jack and Al Jefferson/David West.
I pretty much knew they would lose after game 6. Then when Pop said he would run the same rotations pre-game I was certain.
Game 6 is the biggest loss in franchise history. .

It's over and gone. Game 6 will be a head shaker forever though. EXTREMELY PROUD of them.
Quite honestly, I am already over it.
Why???
- The NBA is not afraid to have the Spurs in the Finals because they shed the boring label.
- Baby Steps. Spurs got to the WCF, now the Finals, next step is to win it.
- Spurs have alot of cap space to go after a difference maker this offseason. My choice would be OJ Mayo. To me, he is the best available SG and even now he is undervalue and Spurs can get him for a good price.
Look at the West. The only team that I think could beat the Spurs is the Warriors. But if the Spurs bring back Manu, Splitter for good value, Resign TMAC and rehabilitate him and sign someone like Mayo, IMO they will still be the best team in the West and should be back in the Finals next year.
Game 6 made last night easier to handle. Definitely softened the blow.
Game 6 definitely will be haunt me for a very long time. We were so close, but then let it slip. But I like how we played game 7. Even though we lost, we were still there until end of 4th quarter. One thing I've learned is not to count this team out. We were thinking they were done a few years ago, and would never get back here. Look at how far we get this year. I'm looking forward to next year.
I'm already over it.
Last nite was i didnt talk too no one..no one called or texed me...had a very bad night..woke up this moring came late too work..but kunda feeling a little bit better now..good to know im not the only one feelIn like this..but im still hurtin
ffs it's too brutal to shake off any time soon. Timmy at the press conference barely able to speak was so hard to watch. never thought I'd be THAT sad about sports. :/
until the casket drops![]()
It will be a tender scar which will never go away. It's a damn shame.
I hate Lebron and Miami so much - so this is going to take awhile to get over. I'm avoiding all articles, newscasts and stories about the Finals because I just can't stand to see Lebron's ugly monkey face with the trophy that should've been Timmy's. I am being a very sore loser and I hope I don't run into any Heat fans for the next week or so!
god can hear you.
