I may not agree with you on nearly everything, but that putback was sick. So was the almost poster on Birdman.
Kawhai Freaking Leonard and Boris Diaw and Patty Mills and Tiago Splitter... Role players beating superstars... Love it, love it, love it, basketball at its best.
Can't tell yet, as of right now, its a toss up between Duncan, Parker and Leonard. I think the Spurs will win game 5 and close out the series, and who ever of those 3 that plays the best in game 5, will get the MVP. Parker is the best player on the team, has played great Duncan is a legend, has broken records, has played very well Leonard is 22, has been the surprise heart and star of the spurs this series It could go to any of them.
You just don't get it LOL. Do you even logic? Superstars don't automatically deserve more praise just because they are superstars. I'm a Rockets fan who is pissed our "star" didn't show up in the playoffs. Since he is our "star" he should step up like one. I don't hold Lin to superstar standards since he is a role player. That's being logical, you're not logical. By the way, tell me how exactly Harden exceeded your expectations in our playoffs? You called me a Lin only fan when you call yourself a Rockets fan and bash on our own players. You're a Lebron nut rider. Go to the Heat forums. I've been on these boards way longer than you, and you had the nerve to call me a LOF.

Just throwing this out there...is it a coincidence that the Spurs are winning without choking minus one Tracy McGrady??? yes he didnt play...but some dudes have real bad omens...i believe McGrady was one such person...
all do respect, the ball movement got me out of my seat, several times. I love the spurs organization. The Rockets have the potential to be the Spurs 2.0 if they follow the "ball must not get sticky" motto
Spurs fans suck and they've won 4 bleeping championships already, they are not some down-trodden franchise underdog people make them out to be. They are the Patriots of the NBA the only difference is that Pop is more Charming than The Hoodie. I really don't care how they carry themselves. Good for them. The Colts as a organization carry themselves well doesn't mean I have to root for them. That's where I'm coming from. I'm not interested in seeing the Spurs hoist another championship. On the other hand I hope Miami somehow can win the next two games to make this interesting because over anything I just want a great 7 game series.
THIS. Miami doesn't need superstar help. They need decent 4th/5th options. LeBron and Bosh as a 1-2 punch is a good enough foundation. They need a rim protector / rebounder and better backcourt play.
Aren't you the ones starting a thread on Harden vs. Yao Ming. Lol. Yao Ming didn't lead us to **** and neither has James Harden. I will always admire Yao for his heart, but James Harden vs. Yao Ming is irrelevant as none of our stars since Hakeem have accomplished anything on this this team. T-Mac. Francis. ^ Nothing more than first round exits. Yao. Artest ^ Only stars to lead us to the second round. Harden & Howard* (They still have a chance to do something since they're still active) What is ****ting on Harden going to do? I felt the same way during the T-Mac Yao era... what is ****ting on T-Mac going to do? These are our superstars, support them because they aren't going to get traded and packaged off like mediocre role players are. Lin is expendable, Harden isn't. We can't just trade him for another superstar, it doesn't work that way. Roleplayers come and go, so yes Harden and Howard should get a lion's share of the support and praise because they will be on our team whether we like or not. If they leave and didn't lead us to **** that is when you start ****ting on them.
The big three this series: Bosh 14.3 points 4.7 rebounds Wade 16.3 points 3 assists 4 rebounds James 27.5 points 7.3 rebounds 3.8 assists

There are very few people rooting for the Spurs that would continue to root for the Spurs had the Heat not been in the finals. I understand the people that root for them because they exemplify good basketball. There are also some people acting like Spurs fans because they hate the Heat/Wade/Bron.
