Spurs fans shouldn't be blaming the refs, Spurs choked away the game on their own. The Manu play could have been called a foul, I agree. But LeBron's drive where Green hit him on the arm also could have been called. The refs swallow their whistles late in games.. everyone who follows the NBA should know that. Not sure why anyone is surprised. Oh and the Bosh block on Green most definitely wasn't a foul, lol. The baseline angle they showed revealed minimal contact.
Yup, he still made some ridiculous mistakes that are very uncharacteristic of him. And he needs to find his jumper for game 7. There's zero trust on his J right now. The Spurs are treating him like 2007 Lebron. Heat defense got them back in this one. Spurs shot basically 60% in the first half. Ended game at 43.5%. Game 7 is going to be epic.
Thats not enough to want nothing but failure for a division rival thats busted our team for the last 17 years. We want the spurs to suck and this will be the beginning, finally. They will lose game seven. And i would rather have a spurs jersey cuz they look better.
On the replay you can see Green's hand actually hit's LeBron's forearm, Green didn't touch ball. Although I like the no call for the minimal contact.
Pop's biggest mistake was playing Manu too much tonight. He was brutal and cost the Spurs the game I feel. Pop I feel had a horrendous 4th Q and OT as far as coaching/substitutions. Pop might have cost the Spurs the series with his horrendous coaching down the stretch.
Reporter: Chris, what were you thinking about on that last play? Bosh: I gotta get my hands on Danny's ball
Kind of funny how people all of a sudden respect and love the Spurs now. They have been disrespected for so long until now

At least he's honest. This is OVER. <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p>Manu on Game 7: “I have no clue how we’re going to be re-energized.

There were way too many touch calls in the 3rd quarter but to their credit, Joey & his crew let them play in the 4th and OT.
I think lebrons 3 was just as big cuz if he misses it its over much sooner and it sinks in with 20 seconds left in the game making you feel like **** and unable to look your teammates in the eye. Allens was much more difficult and looked sick.
Yeah, i bet the Spurs will kinda look back at how they let this one go. But the past is irrelevant now, game 6 is irrelevant. If they the have heart of champions then they have to swallow it. All that is left for both teams is 1 win to rule them all. :grin:
One more win for the Heat and the Rockets are still only the second most successful NBA team in Texas. Spurs make me sick. Let's go Heat.
this spurs team has overachieved, theres still doubt that they would even be in the finals if westbrook stayed healthy.. the fact that they made it to game 7 i pretty amazing. their past means nothing, its a few old guys playing team ball, they are far and wide the underdog in this series and they just blew their opportunity to STEAL a championship, as silly as that sounds.. i dont think lebron will mess around with game 7, i imagine wade or bosh will be due for another one of those 30 point games along with lebron..
