[::NBA FINALS THREAD: HEAT DEFEAT SPURS 4-3. CONGRATS LEBRON & MIAMI. EARNED, NOT GIVEN::]

trynafeelmink · Jun 17, 2013

Oh and also i feel Like stern made the call to the Refs and it goes as following

"Hey refs ya'll can actually officiate basketball like basketball this series"

Refs ain't giving Bron none of those ******** calls he usually gets and it has him pissed and even more hesitant.

Spurs spread everyone out with their offense. They had the Heat looking silly all night.

Click to expand...

That has nothing to do w/ hustle and effort tho

No excuse for the Heat giving Danny Green wide open threes constantly at this point in the series.

LeBron loses.

Make excuses for LeBron playing like crap, blaming everything on Spo.

Find a reason to bring Kobe up and devalue something he has accomplished in his career.

Derail the entire thread and focus on Laker fans/Heat haters who protect Kobe, to take the attention away from the fact that LeBron is 1 game away from losing another finals.

Like clockwork.

I just feel like how the series has been going its hard to imagine the Spurs losing 2 straight.

Playing @ MIA isn't easy, but they've won there already.

maxelite · Jun 17, 2013

The on and off switch nonsense is what has gotten this team in these situations. They literally have these lulls and moments where they forget what theyre supposed to do.

No one else to blame but themselves now.

But I still think this series is destined for 7 (no conspiracy).

teamlakers909 · Jun 17, 2013

Reminds me of the Lakers Celtics series from 2010.

Lakers were down 3-2 going back home...

Heat will win game 6 in a blow out (see games 2, 4) and then game 7 will be for all the marbles with MIA pulling it out (bc they are at home).

None of the teams are really dominating with strategy, just depends which team comes out HOT.

Hope I'm wrong.

Duncan 48 minutes from 5.

He's gonna have a big game Tuesday.

LOL you hit the nail on the head. LeBron has had 3 brutal games this series. To try and justify his performance, his fans bring up Kobe's game 7 performance against the Celtics. The funny thing is, Kobe and the Lakers still managed to win the game LOL.

Coupé It · Jun 17, 2013

I said Heat in 7.

But the Spurs need to win the next game to win the championship, I don't think they'll beat Miami in a game 7.

But who the **** knows anymore. No One. This has been the weirdest NBA series I've ever seen. Every game changes.

Done predicting whats going to happen next, none of y'all know. Just enjoy at this moment.

LeBron bout to go off like he did against the Celtics in Game 6 of last year's ECF.

I'm not saying it's not LeBron's fault :lol

He isn't playing up to his capabilities. I think that's pretty apparent. My point is that's all anyone wants to mention. Spoelstra isn't doing much to help, wade and bosh have been inconsistent, same goes for the bench. Saying that it's not all on LeBron =/= saying LeBron is free of fault. He's playing like ****

aepps20 · Jun 17, 2013

Lebron got excellent looks close to the rim all night. If he can't knock down baby hooks, layups, and 8 foot jumpers then he deserves the blame. Not to mention he was part of numerous momentum shifts in the game due to his blown layups, turnovers and crying for calls rather than getting back on defense

maybe hes just tired or too busy looking for foul calls, but he needs that paul george/blake griffin mentality. try to dunk it on whoever is in front of him every time he gets in the paint, no one is going to call a charge on a lebron dunk

You wouldnt know that theres another team in these finals if you read this thread. Every page is about the Heat or LeBron.

Bruh he's the biggest reason they're losing..... and he's the best player in the league so why wouldn't people be talking about it. When they do good the media is constantly in Lebron is the Goat talks.

Their is two sides to this and you have to take the good with the bad!!

When your the best player on the floor and your former dance partner/teammate is having a more memorable impact on the series than you there is a BIG problem.

This... cannot possibly be the first time you have found that nobody wants to talk about your team. :lol

Agreed. As a Lakers fan I don't care for either team but give the Spurs some credit. They're shooting lights out from beyond the arc and Pop's adjustments and strategies against LBJ have been great...

Y'all still got y'all faith in lebron huh? WHO IS GOING TO STOP TONY PARKER? Similar to how this question couldn't be answered in this thread, the heat couldn't come with an answer either. Other than my prediction that the spurs would win in 5 all my other predictions were correct. Tony couldn't be stopped, if tony gets trapped the perimeter shooters would FEAST, Manu showing up in the knick of time I mean its crazy. The spurs are playing on another level. Its like playing your old uncles in basketball and you had no idea how good they were. I mean your younger, quicker, just all around better than them but they've mastered the game of basketball. This series ends on Tuesday with game 6. As great as a game 7 would be for the sport of basketball, the type of pressure lebron an Co. will face in game 6 will multiply by 1000 with a game 7 and they don't need to go through that. They've barely been able to rise to the occasion the whole series, seeing those players with the capability of choking would be hard to watch. A gracious loss (on their home floor :rollin

) would allow them to start their off season and reconfigure this heat team that had so much to live up to.

So i'm just going to say this and exit......... If one of you ****** stat geeks sit here and EVER tell me lebron is an ELITE jump shooter again

This man has been easily slowed down by a gameplan that revolves around letting him take open jumpers.... and it's worked but he's an elite shooter

so we jus gon ignore this? Lets go back n quote dudes that was saying that **** please.

CP1708 · Jun 17, 2013

If the Heat do lose, I got the headline ready.

"Not one, ......well, yeah, maybe just one."

:lol
