I'm sure the Spurs wish they would've won last year as well, but that loss makes this even more of a storybook moment for history. Crazy.
He's crying because his other daddy who takes better care of him couldn't come to the game because it would expose Tim.
Morey should take a leaf out of how Spurs are built. And a competent coach actually does matter in championship runs.
Bill Russell = Tim Duncan team success elevates their status beyond the limits of their individual talents
What an exhibition from then Spurs. Great coaching combined with humble star players who want to play team ball. Props to Lebron James. He competes hard. Couldn't do it by himself, though.
He gave way to Lebron after the 2011 Finals. I'm sure he's a player who recognizes his level of play. He can still be a starter if he wants, but clearly he's no longer a #2 or a #3 on a championship team.
Gratz on the Spurs for being able to come back AND win after that demoralizing game 6 loss last year..
Manu ran out of gas last year. If Wade knows his role is to provide 20-25 minutes of good play most games, he'll be fine.
I don't understand how anyone could not love this Spurs team. They are everything a basketball purist could ask for.
Nah, Kobe has 5 rings just like Duncan. If you put Duncan > Lebron then you now have to put Kobe over Lebron too. We now have to decide if MVPs are worth more than Rings.
After these last 3 games, I wonder what role will Leonard play next year, esp. offensively. Clearly, he's been held back.
That actually never occurred to me. And who knows if he actually sticks around for next year? Could be epic.
