Re: NBA playoffs
And what did we all say before this series started? They could pull that against Chicago and they barely got away with it against Indiana, but they WOULD NOT be able to pull that on and off stuff against San Antonio.
Now, if I can speak broken English for a moment, they done let Ginobli go off and he's was the main one turning the ball over for the Spurs.
Ginobli is back and Parker is fine now. They missed an opportunity to seize control, fooling around turning switches on and off and carry'n on.
Their bench had better come up with 40 in game 6 or it ain't going seven."Please take with you this final sword, The Excellector. I am praying that your journey will be guided by the light", Leon Shore

That first game steal by SA may end up being the difference.

Re: NBA playoffs
San Antonio is going to take their heart in game 6, just like Dallas did, on their home floor. Miami is going to panic if they don't put it away early and if the Spurs get up big early, they'll be able to hold as many Miami runs as necessary.
It's going to be game six versus Dallas all over again. Lebron will get crushed for going 1-3 in the Finals. Wade's going to be frustrated with everybody. Bosh is going to start spilling the beans on what's going on behind the scenes. Heat fans will be ready to suck Riley's dick to get him to come back and coach this team.
The end is near."Please take with you this final sword, The Excellector. I am praying that your journey will be guided by the light", Leon Shore

Re: NBA playoffs
Wade is getting hammered by the NBA nerd/junkies for his weak, lazy, and quite frankly, disrespectful defense...He's not the only one, but he is probably the poster child this series for the up and down lack of focus...ball watching, extreme low percentage gambling in the post and outright stupidly repeatedly leaving Danny Green wide open for 3's.
Although Walsh's system of offense can compensate for lack of talent; however, defense is a different story. According to Walsh, talent on defense was essential and could not be compensated for. What did Walsh do in 1981? He acquired physical and talented players on defense.

Re: NBA playoffs
As far as what I think will happen...I think Miami wins game 6 and loses game 7.
Miami's role players could not have played any worse on the road after playing well at home. Cole, Chalmers, Haslem, Miller and Birdman all laid duds on the road while the Spurs went off at home.
That will even out quite a bit at home IMHO.
Unfortunately for the Heat, their Jekyl and Hyde play is what they are at this point...it's been a month of the same...terrifying Heat defense one game...baffling ball watching and gambling defense the next.
San Antonio is moving the ball well, but in games like yesterday, they don't eve have too...Parker and Ginobli killed whoever the Heat thew at them in ISO's and simple plays.
Like this...this was a simple hand off a the top of the 3 point line and Wade is in no mans land sagging off the one guy who is in NBA Jam mode.
Look at this complete overreaction by Miami in the paint...that's not Duncan down there with the ball, it's Tiago Splitter. lol
The Heat like others have said have lived with that on and off switch all season...even during the winning streak, how many times did they fall behind by 15 in the second half only to come back after ratcheting up the defense.
While I have confidence the Heat will get the job done in game 6, I don't have much at all that they can do it 2 games in a row.Although Walsh's system of offense can compensate for lack of talent; however, defense is a different story.

Re: NBA playoffs
Pop is two steps ahead of Spo, but I'm struggling to even blame Spo for the lack of defensive effort.

Re: NBA playoffs
there is so much over reaction to stopping Parker that they leave guys like Green wide open. And when SA shoots 60% like last night, they're gonna win.
The thing is, with Boston's big 3, winning a championship and getting to another was consider success. With Miami's big 3, winning a championship and getting to two more (if they lose) will be considered a failure. Because of the 'not 1, not 2..." stuff. Bosh will be gone after this year IMO
