woulda, coulda, shoulda. if my aunt had balls she'd be my uncle. The Spurs lost - just say the Heat was the better team over 7 games. Is that you, Skip Bayless?
about arguments like these is that you diminish both teams. Fans always forget that they are just homers. They don't or won't give credit to a great winner and diminish the efforts and abilities of the losing team. Thanks for you appraisal of the cliche; nothing like overestimating your own value.
I hate ESPN
brutal until at least football season starts
by a great team over another great team. Hope that shuts the f'ing haters up about James.
I agree. What more can the guy do? What I don't understand is how hardcore basketball fans cannot like watching him play. I know most won't root for him, but isn't it usually a fun experience to watch the best player in the world play their sport? This seems to be going around in pretty much every sport right now, but I still don't understand the phenomenon. When Parker was on he was amazing to watch. Wade even managed to come out of hibernation to have a couple pretty great games. This was an amazing series between two great teams and I loved it - and I hate the NBA. But that was just great basketball every night. Between this and the Cup finals (and some pretty awesome soccer being played this month) we are getting spoiled right now. Just enjoy it as a sports fan.
Game is garbage. Every fundamental aspect of the game I was taught is no longer part of the game at the NBA level.
Yes, there are obvious rule breaks in the NBA. the physicality is perfectly fine. They are grown men who weigh 200+lbs and the games would be as long as baseball games if the refs called everything that they called at the level that you were taught. Traveling is obviously a disease in the NBA, but that's a different story.
As for fundamentals, Tim Duncan is the definition of fundamentals in the NBA. But how many rings does he have?
Duncan has four rings (1999, 2003, 2005, 2007). Not sure where you were going with that one.
But now I'm sitting here at work getting weird looks from laughing out loud because of how ridiculous this is. I wonder how drunk Gilbert was when writing this. Well, James 2-Gilbert 0
And Vogel has to think about benching Hibbert.. Twice. But one decision doesn't win or lose you a title. They were close, but if it truly was wrapped up, the Spurs would have another banner, not the Heat
Has any NBA finals winning team ever won the championship with two starting five players not scoring a single bucket?
- Mike Miller (0-5 shooting)
- Chris Bosh (0-5 shooting)
