Spurs with the Big 3 in their prime would've won this. They're really close to the Heat, but ultimately when it comes down to the end of the 4th quarter Thursday, the Heat's youth will triumph. Nothing for Spurs to hang their head about, though.
Refs didn't call much for Lebron all night...Spurs missed two FTs missed two rebounds and lost the game on their own.
It's not unprecedented. T-Mac did it to the Spurs 8 1/2 years ago. And Reggie Miller brought the Pacers back from 6 down against the Knicks with far less time remaining 18 years ago(yes, it's been THAT long).
even if manu was fouled they aren't calling it there. it doesn't get called there at any level. manu/pop everyone on the spurs should have known that. they had to get a clean look
Funny 6+ months of hard work, so many big time shots, so many beast mode performances, so many great clutch plays, so much adversity overcome to make it to the biggest stage, the NBA FINALS, and it all comes down to just 1 freethrow. 1 Freethrow. Make it = Championship, miss it = probably a disappointing end. Amazing.
And 2 defensive rebounds. San Antonio grabs either of those and it's over. Remember, Miami had no timeouts.
Just blaming Leonard? Ginobody missed a crucial free throw as well as Parker. Usually greats free throw shooters.
You're missing the point. One act caused the other act. If Allen doesn't foul Ginobli then there is no traveling. Notice the refs never called traveling either. I am talking about one key play in the game not what happened earlier. If this was some sort of makeup call by the refs then that still was a bad call since they should've made the calls earlier.
Spurs had 7 more free throws tonight and this is away. They've had 30+ more free throws for the series so far. Manu blatantly traveled on that 2nd to last play. The last play was close but I think Bosh got enough ball.
spurs fans gotta feel defeated, they getting blown out. theres no way around it. 1 ft or 1 rebound and theyre champs.. game 7 wont be close.. lebron wade and bosh will be posing and giggling by the 6 minute mark in the 4th..
