Greedy OP.
I've said it in other threads... Spurs need to protect the 3 point line, run bosh off the 3 and Chalmers because they will get the ball in spades tomorrow night. Smart defense, no cheap fouls because they will be looking to get Chalmers and Bosh to the line to get a rhythm, it's the blue print the media has outlined for game 4. All the talk before Game 3 was Kawhi needs to step up and he did so look for them to allow both those jokers to get away with murder and get foul calls.
I'm hoping Duncan has a monster game to closeout the series, he has one left in him in this series.
A little worried about Pop's suspension for Game 4. After all, he slugged Leonard several times.Throw a punch and you're gone.
STATS DONT MEAN UNLESS YOU WIN THE DAYM THING!!!!!!
Is anyone going to this game?
The Heat will probably come out of the gates going all out. I have a feeling they will try to get Bosh involved early on after disappearing in Game 3. Just have to weather the storm and keep this close. Go in for the kill in the 4th and come back home.
Veteran teams don't react to home crowd emotions like young teams, this could be a huge benefit to us like we saw last night. And we all know if it looks bad their crowd will literally leave. Just stay close the get tired in the 4th and we steal another.
THIS. Duncan has still got a 25/15 type game left in him. I'm hoping that's tomorrow. In Duncan I trust.
Yeah, I'm expecting LeBron to come out firing and the Heat to go up early. The good thing is that the Spurs have done well responding to Heat runs. They just need to keep it close like Game 6 against OKC.
None of the Big Three had much of game last night -- didn't have to. They're still due, each of them. I can see Ginobili going off.
They'll be fine. Lebron and Wade will come out extremely aggressive, attacking at will and posting up, trying to get to the FT line as much as possible and trying to get our guys in foul trouble. I expect a lot of FT's for miami this game, unfortunately.
I didn't expect the Spurs to win last night with the way the Heat played the last 2 games. I actually went ahead and accepted Spurs will be down 1-2 and just happy not down 0-3 if not for Lebron's cramps.. Heat were just so scary, every shot and plays they run, i'm at the edge of my seat. I can't believe how many down screens, back screens they ran for their shooters and everytime Lebron has the ball. They are the aggressor to be honest. Actually, the Heat played a really good game and still lost, Spurs just played a lot lot better! I liked that the bench and supporting cast are contributing which is Spurs greatest advantage. I'm also glad I don't see a lot of Battier now and they no longer have Mike Miller. Those 2 i think are game changers.
If Spurs win Game 4, I'd be really surprised but really really happy! I'd like to see how the Heat respond being down 3-1. If it's 2-2...![]()
baseline making pay today, bringing home the bacon, center cut, thick sliced, extra greasy, ain't no one eatin' no Cheerios around this man this morning, no way, leggo' my Eggo, Aunt Jemima's gonna have to wait, nutritious part of a balanced breakfast, mama there goes that SPAM!
It became clear after the Game 3 officials were announced that Joey had Game 4 (along with Mike Callahan, almost certainly).
And, like clockwork, Joey has apparently been spotted in Miami today:
We got this. Spurs will go for the kill and put the Heat on the brink.

I'd have been fine w/ Joey in G4 if the Spurs were down 2-1. Now, I'm not so sure tbh.
The great thing about playing the Heat is Tim Duncan's mid-range shot is not needed in the offense.
Has anyone noticed how no one is giving us any credit for the win last night? They've only been mentioning what the Heat didn't do, that Chalmers hasn't shown up, and even the Heat team has been saying they played their worst game of the season. Everybody is also making it a foregone conclusion that we will lose tomorrow and probably in a blowout. I guess they can keep underestimating us but I hope the team comes with a killer instinct instead of the "we did our job and got one" mentality that will set us up to get blown the out. This team is too old for that , tbh.
same as it ever was
The NBA/media wants a close series. No surprise.
