Funny how now that the spurs won game one people are giving them some respect, they pretty much steamrolled the far stronger western conference and people were saying they would be swept or lose in 5. They are a big side which the heat have big problems with because guys like wade and lebron who are great slashers find it a lot harder once getting in the lane to get their shots over multiple seven footers and are forced to shoot more jumpers. Lebron blamed the loss on being tired from a big series with the pacers yet after game one against the bulls which they lost he blamed the long layoff after round one. I think it's more to do with the fact that they don't always try until their backs are against the wall, they came back from 20 to 30 points down plenty of the times throughout the season against crap teams, most sides would have lost these games but the heat have a gear no one else can get to which is why they will eventually win probably in 7. They have now made it very hard for themselves with the shitty 2-3-2 format they have in the finals, San Antonio will be saying to themselves that this series isn't heading back to south beach after game two. It all makes for a very interesting series.

Go Knicks 2014

Heat got a great run going in the 3rd and slapped the spurs like they should have in game 1.

Heat 4-1!

you know the game is over when the spurs 5 on the court includes Blair/Mills/McGrady

Mcgrady 24 rebounds, 24 assists, 12 blocks..... Set him free!


Per 48.

and at his age 1 heart attack if he ever played 48 minutes ;)

I think it's time for Tiago Splitter to retire out of shame.

hehe that was a good rejection from Lebron. Splitter needs to take a page out of KJ.

'94 conference finals.

ball was on its way down.

LOL just kidding. Crazy block by Lebron, that block and his monster dunk a few players later pretty much killed San Antonio. Pop was smart to put his rejects on to play out the remainder of the game. No point in risking an injury in a game that was pretty much unwinnable.

Yeah I watched the game live and have to say the spurs were actually in the game until LBJ went crazy. Funny thing was, he wasn't scoring!

LOL
T-mac got some playing time ! :O
Skip Bayless said that it wasn't a block and the ball already slipped out of Tiago's hand. ahaaha. He's pretty much a paid actor to hate on LeBron...

Heat 4-1!

finally, someone sharing my point of view!

Tho i must say, Duksie, you got some valid points. Problem with the Spurs tho is that they can't block off the lane aswell as say Pacers or Grizzlies would have been able to.

That said, Heat were hot from downtown. I don't see that happening again. I'm sticking with Heat in 5, but i'm fairly sure that they have to find a way to get Lebron going. In absence of him being able to take over games on offense, he's devoted himself to Defense, which i find respect worthy. However, his teammates aren't going to be able to keep putting up those numbers, so he has to find a way to put up atleast 25 points if the Heat are going to win this.

Coach Spoelstra made some adjustments. Let's see what Pop can do for Game 3.
