    stop making excuses bro, the spurs torched the 4th quarter and had the lead when lebron couldn't go anymore. and where is the difference? I said people said the spurs wouldn't be able to shoot that good if lebron was on the court, and as we saw today, they were wrong. the spurs would have won game 1 regardless with lebron on the court.


    exactly

    And then Parker said something like "I trusted my teammates! Kawhi..." and then the feed cut back to the ball game.

    obviously no team will shoot 90% for a whole game but the spurs already showed they can go a full quarter with missing only 2 shots, as shown in game 1 and now game 3. so what now?

    Kawhi "the Claw" Leonard...that guy just goes out there and makes plays whenever the spurs really have needed him.

    I swear rashad lewis shooting form is the ugliest looking like a soccer player throwing the ball to the game

    speaking of the rockets. i think this finals shows how far off the rockets still are.

    poor coaching, iso heavy simplistic basketball, turnover heavy, and most importantly bad defense.

    just a big gumbo of playoff losing basketball.

    Spurs have a great chance of winning it in 6. Next game would be tough as Heat will look to bounce back after the embarrasing loss tonight. Game 5 will be there for the taking for Spurs imo.

    The difference is it was two completely different games and in THAT game, Miam was in control until LeBron tapped out (sorry you remember it wrong, but when he first tapped out in the 4th they had a lead and were up 6 before his two missed jumpers, when he was clearly affected by the injury). If we are talking about G1, I think how guys were playing in G1 when LeBron was in would be a better guage for how things would have stayed with him in then a completely different game, almost a week later.

    I still think those are freak of nature moments lol.
    Have they ever done this before the finals? Miami just really got unlucky. Spurs just flat out on fire.

    Huge difference from Round 1 Spurs and NBA Finals Spurs.

    Then they will win. 2 games the Spurs have won, they shot 60%.

    Nothing you can do about that.

    But over a 7 game series, I think defense will take over more, hence I"m still giving the edge to the Heat.

    Remember last year, the Spurs, esp. Danny Green, were also breaking records offensively earlier on in the series.

    Kawhi could become a very special player. He has the tools....just need the development, and his on the right track at only being 22yrs old.

    I don't think its LeBron's fault that the Spurs shot 75% in the 1st half.

    Heat and Spurs are playing out of their minds right now.

    It was an 11pt deficit in the 4th. Heat never threatened because James was a ghost.

    It was one of his weird games. Started out on fire from the perimeter, and then shied from taking jump shots the rest of the game.

    He looked tentative from the perimeter like last year from the 2nd quarter on.

    I'm sure he'll be fine in game 4.

    Heat were winning when LeBron started cramping.

    Spurs already got lucky with Ibaka's injury.

    Lucky bastards
