2012 - 2013 Finals

Nevermind. Splitter, you chump. Go up with two hands or don't go up at at all.

You can scratch that now.

It's just one game...

Wow what a 2nd half.

Game 3 is gonna be exciting.

Are the finals still 2-3-2? That really does suck if so.

So, I don't watch as much Spurs basketball as I should, but is Kawhi Leonard always this clueless on defense? He looks worse than Aminu out there right now, but I always here about how good of a defender he is.

For who?


And Heat just seem to be the antithesis to us last season. They come out and play spectacular quarters that put games out of reach. Rather than our poor quarters that let teams back in or let games get away from us.

Sucks for heat. Spurs have a chance to play their 3 closeout games at home in a row. I doubt they win 3 in a row, but I still believe the Finals should be 2-2-1-1-1

He's a very good defender, especially in a team defense and they have him matched up on Lebron. He was really good game one, but awful tonight.

Thanks. That makes more sense.

Game is on now!

Yeah. We know it was a double dribble LeBron. Don't need to repeat the signal.

And did that ref just get in the way?

The Spurs need to do a much better job of rebounding the rest of this game. They're doing a good job of defending but it goes to waste when Miami gets multiple possesions. They need to work on cutting down on these turnovers too.

Bonner never missed those shots vs us. Typical.

You know we're the king of making mediocre players looks like allstars.

Danny Green has a nice looking shot.

Come on LeBron, I thought your choking days were over.

LOL, Wade tried to flop and failed

Wade has been terrible...

Uh oh, Parker out?? Let's hope Neal can make up for it.

So has LeBrick... LOL

Is it just me or could Kawhi Leonard palm the Superdome? Friggin' huge hands.

Neal? Showtime? No need for Parker right now.

I just hope the Spurs can take at least 2 out of the 3 at home...

Is Parker injured or is he just playing badly?

Of course that's what I'll be rooting for but I'm just trying to be realistic.

I'm so dam glad the spurs answered that butt kicking in Miami with an even better butt kicking in s.a. Beautiful.

I don't know what you guys are talking about, everyone on ESPN told me the Heat were a team that couldn't be blown out.

Lebron just kept putting his head down and crashed into everyone on his way to the basket. The difference was the refs rarely called those which they did right. Hate how lebron keeps getting rewarded for his out of control play and phantom foul calls.

I agree. And what the hell happened to his jumpshoot? During the regular season it looked like one of the best in the league, and now it has completely abandond him. It makes him so much easy to defend.

The thing that I noticed about Lebron recently is that he has a "stand-still" jumper but his off the dribble jumper is not all that accurate. And that is exactly what SA is making him do, they are going under his screens and forcing him to hit that jumper in stride. The thing is, SA is playing very good 3PT Defense and staying home, so when he comes off that screen and can't kick it to his shooters, he has no choice but to pull up because the paint is not necessarily packed but well-defended.

Pop is a genius.

What an exhibition from the Spurs. I'm happy for them. Green and Neal looked like superstars, they had the game of their lifes.
I hope Parker is OK and can play the next game without any trouble.
Watching them is a thing of beauty, true & pure basketball. Team work and great effort, any player looks like a great one under Popovich's direction and system of play.


If SAS win 1 of the 2 home games left, they will have it in their hands.

If the the spurs take all their home games, I'd be willing to be the format changes next year after the prized heat lose that way. Just saying.

UPDATE: @spurs announce @tonyparker will play tonight in Game 4.

Sounds a lot like what those draft lottery conspiracy theorists would say

Game on now

I'd be really happy if the Spurs win this one. Come on, Lebron! I'm counting on you!

Some defending champ. Resorting to lineup shifts to gain an edge.

Tony Parker's looking good out there

Spurs can't miss!

Gaining what edge?

Refs treating Splitter like a scrub. He's getting mugged out there. This is one of the things I really hate about the NBA, if you're not a big name, the refs will turn the blind eye.

I didn't say it worked. I said that's what they were doing.



And Splitter gets blocked too damn much for a near seven footer.

He has received two blocks already.

They going to make sure Miami wins

Can't out flop Bosh.

I don't get it. If Pop did the same exact thing, we'd be talking about how he's the best at making adjustments. The Heat hate here is phenomenal

LOL Javie defending the flop

Chris Bosh is terrible. I mean just terrible. He takes so many jump shots, and all bricks.
