We won tbh. Refs ed us. We ing won.
The 2011-2012 San Antonio Spurs gave it all they had. They played with every ounce of their souls in this Game 6. It was their best game of the series and one of their best games of the season. Unfortunately, the Spurs just didn't have enough. Our Spurs didn't lose it; the Thunder went out and won the game.
The Thunder are a great, great team. One of the best teams I've ever seen the Spurs play. Perhaps they performed over their heads -- only time can tell that tale -- but if they didn't, that is a team that will win multiple championships. Congrats to you, Oklahoma City.
But I'm so god damn proud of the Spurs. You gave it everything you had. As a fan, that's all I can ever ask for.
Thank you Spurs for a wonderful season. Thank you SpursTalk for making this an even more memorable ride. It was fun. I'm sorry this road didn't reach the ultimate destination.
But I'm so very proud.![]()
We won tbh. Refs ed us. We ing won.
Was a great season but OKC was the team of destiny as shown by them making every big shot when it counted.
Thanks to the Spurs for a great season and for not quitting like most other teams do.
We'll be back next year.
To begin the season I had no hope. But this was a very special run. Thanks for the great season. It was fun. I'm proud.
We lost to a better team. Good luck OKC
We didn't deserve to win this series based on games 3-5, but goddammit, this game was ours and it was taken away by shoddy officiating.
I hope you are joking. I really do. You can stomach a complete meltdown with horrifice execution from your best players, questionable rotations by your coach and blowing the biggest halftime lead in one of the most pivotal games in your franchises history?
Wow.
I'm proud as of Tony and the rest of this team. They played great ball all season. Durant and the Thunder recognized they were a dynasty about 2 games too early for the Spurs to advance.
Tough loss man.
OKC is a great team, no doubt. But it's hard not to be bitter after those last two quarters.
Let it go.
There's always next year!
Half-empty, meet half-full.
Stop giving so much credit to OKC. They're a good team. Not a great team. Take out Durant, and the team crumbles to bits and pieces.
As cliche as it sounds, OKC really did evolve in front of our eyes. I'm proud of our guys, disappointed in TP, especially after his off season comments. Sad. Good season gentlemen, I'm glad to have witnessed the streak we did.
Time to reload and give it another go next season. Spurs still have a chance. I'm incredibly disappointed, yeah, but Im glad I was able to watch some of the best looking basketball in years with this team.
Bleeding that silver and black.
Put this elsewhere, but it's appropriate here:
Yeah, they lost; and yeah, they blew a 2-0 lead in the conference finals; and yeah, they lost 4 straight after a 20 game win streak.
But the core of this team fought its ass off right to the very end. If this is the end of the road, at least they went out with pride and fight and gave the kind of effort that is expected of champions.
Thunder fans, you should hope that when your guys are 10-15 years in and facing a team that is its athletic superior by far, that it can muster that kind of effort, summon that kind of pride, and find that sort of will when everything is going against it.
As much pride as I've had in the Spurs in winning 4 les, I've rarely felt as proud of my team as I do right now.
Pretty much this. I actually don't get too worked up over games (I tend to get depressed instead of angry when the Spurs lose), but that offensive foul on Manu when Kawhi hit that three had me cursing a blue streak. I hadn't done that in quite some time.
This should have gone 7 games...
Proud of my team as they fought against 8! OKC doesn't deserve anything, those es had the refs help to get them to the Finals! I hope whoever wins the East takes the Championship! I don't root for cheaters! you OKC!
Great season. Thunder are the better team, hats off to them.
What are your honest thoughts about the calls in the 2nd half. No need to dumb it down, what is your honest thoughts on the calls and their impact on the game?
OKC will win the le.
Just can't see boston or miami beating them
Would love to give props to the Thunder tonight but honestly that was the worst officiated game I have ever seen. Spurs never really had a chance tbh...
Only chance the Spurs had was to shorten their rotation. That meant tired players running out of gas. Superstars on our team are plus thirty. It was the risk we took and just couldn't get a big enough lead to hold it.
