wasnt completely wrong tbh...
SA didnt do to well in close games in the playoffs
lots of Mavs games came down to them blowing leads in the final minutes and the Vince Carter 3

Spurs just didn't have any opportunity to play close games after that
Game 2 vs Miami was a pretty bad close-out were they just started iso monkeying around and let Miami get layups

Do a shot of CLR with a draino chaser.

It's true for a superstar coach Pop loses so many close games...

[21209]

Inbounding the ball in close game situations with the lead has been a common problem for the Spurs over the last few seasons.

So the Spurs aren't a good playoff team because they blow out every team they play?

That's a special kind of stupid.

That's a special kind of stupid.

He also leaves out the fact that we won a bunch of the close games

Close games vs Dallas: Game 1 (We overcame 10 point 4th quarter deficit to win), Game 3 (You could call this a "choke"), Game 4 (Won a close game with a clutch 3 pointer down the stretch), Game 5 (won a close game and created separation after Mavs cut our lead to 4 with 2 minutes to play), Game 6 (could also call this a "choke")

So after round 1 we had 3 close wins and 2 close losses

Round 2 there were no close games

Round 3 there was one close game, in game 6 we clutched a victory.

And in the finals There were two close games. Game 1 was very close until about a minute remaining and we were trailing by 7 late in the fourth and won. And in game 2 we "choked"

So the total for the playoffs was 5 close wins and 3 losses. Converting over 50% of close games and to only have 8 close games for an entire playoff run is damn impressive.
