Did you also predict that a so-called big 3 of SA named "Manu" would singlehandedly put the ball in Miamis hand 8times enforced?
Kill the bullshit Mask. Without Manus historic fuckery we are all talking about breaking up the big 3 and "what now?" for the Heat.
You guys may wanna stop the "I told you says" while this series is still fresh in our memories. We all saw Miami shit the bed game 6, only to be rescued from "bust" status by Manu Ginobili.
will do. it ain't even hard.
think about it. they keep bosh out of the lane for the entire season and instead of clapping back the solution is to have bosh shoot jumpers to clear the lane for wade/lebron.
and then in the playoffs after not having to really play inside everyone gets upset when it takes him some time to get going inside again.
let him clap back.
after this year there's no reason that both of them, bron and bosh shouldn't live down low.
wade is the cutter cleanup dude whether he likes it or not.
and you can't explain to me how you could ever begin to stop a lebron james and chris bosh pick and roll. it can't be defended. bron is bron and bosh is an underrated passer.
he actually has post moves.. he could get in the weight room but he was averaging 20 and 10 smaller than what he is now.. and the big men have gotten weaker, not stronger.
miami can keep chalmers out of loyalty if they want to or they could keep cole and get a REAL TOUGH DEFENSIVE MINDED point guard in kyle lowry to be the scrapper.. they don't need offense from the point guard position.
let howard retire, get rid of lewis since they're not going to use him, they can keep anthony if they want to
bring in redick who's worked on his game a lot
and be right back at it.
if the coaching staff ever figures out that if they came down the court, against a set defense and gave lebron the ball and let him run the pick and roll with chris bosh and every single time they would get a GREAT look going to the rim OR kick out pass to an open shooter
miami could win 70 games....
here's what the spurs did:
let lebron & wade shoot all the jumpers they want, but do NOT give up the lane penetration. then, rebound. if miami's jump shooters got hot, they were willing to take the loss, fuck it. the strategy worked when the heat cooled off.
here's what miami did:
let tim duncan get all the post possessions he wanted, double team from the weakside (occassionally) but do NOT leave green and neal alone on the perimeter.
if green had ANY game off the dribble, and if neal had any size to finish at the rim, they'd be dual threats, but they're not. and green turned into a mini manu for the last 2 games.
really, that's all it was...

It seem like Miami could've played that defensive scheme from jump.
Instead of trapping and doubling all the time, leaving Green wide open
Bosh wasn't used to his abitily
I'm not knocking coach Pop, by any means...
Ive been looking for other schemes for the Spurs, but couldn't find anything they should've done better.
Neal - shooter but too small, went cold and gave you nothing
Diaw - defended James good until Lebron said fuck it
Had to play Manu once Tony started to cramp up, he's the backup ball handler....
Lebron guarding Tony, slowed him somewhat, Tony scored often with Cole/Chamlers
Once the Heat rattled Splitter he was useless, and didn't play much....
Shit happens in a series. None of what u talkin about matters at all because there is only one winner and u know what they say about coulda shoulda woulda. Spurs gave a great effort and had the ball bounced differently the series still coulda gone either way. Both teams played hard -SheedDid you also predict that a so-called big 3 of SA named "Manu" would singlehandedly put the ball in Miamis hand 8times enforced?

Max, respect bro, but fuck all that. Take Manu out during his 9turnover epic fuckery and the Spurs get number 5. Its that simple. Fuck all that other shit my man. Spurs won but allowed Manu to literally throw away ring number 5.
Bullshit. If none of it matters then this thread would have died the moment the confetti dropped. There would be nothing left to discuss or debate. Its a message board, its what we do. And in the context of discussing game strategy and woulda coulda's, the spurs were literally seconds away from title number 5 and allowed one player to singlehandedly tank that. As sports fans we have never seen something quite like that, and have never seen a team come so close to a ring without winning it. Its worth discussing. If you don't think so then exit the thread. But don't tell me this is your typical loss where the ball bounced one way and determined the outcome. Nah.Shit happens in a series.

Exactly. Ive never seen anything like that shit bro.i agree.
but here's what is strange: when you fuck-up, pop takes you out of the game... that's his way and always has been his way.
but for some reason, when manu was fucking up over & over & over... he did nothing. NO YELLING, no screaming at him face to face. nothing.
as i've said over & over...manu has a gambling debt or drug problem or both bc that dude was waaaaaay too reckless for a vet player.
and he should have been removed from the game.
but i hate the spurs, so fuck manu. my friends that are spurs fans STILL haven't replied to my ; they prolly want to KILL manu ginobili.
C/s 100% (well kinda)
First and farthermost the staff have room for improvements. You covered them for me!!!
JJ Reddick is a Ray Allen clone, that's a perfect fit...
Kyle Lowery aint my first pick for a pg, if things change. Jose Calderon
is my guy. HIS ability to RUN the OFFENSE would do wonders with this squad.
Spo have Lebron and Wade handling the ball more than Rio, which for me hurts his growth.
Lebron not having to set players up all the time, would allow him to focus on defense more. Jose would help limit the turnovers tremendously. The offense would flow smoother, if they decide to actually focus on developing one and stick to it.
Really haven't seen the benefits of Wade bringing the ball up court after a made basket.
Samuel D can take Howard spot(have addressed playing for Heat)
Greg Oden can take Anthony(if anything happens)spot( recently commented on play here)
JJ Reddick/ Kyle Krover takes Lewis spot
(I like Lewis as a backup option at SF, but they don't use him in that way)
If anything happens with the PG's...Jose and Kyle
Ok a Chris Bosh solution: it's simple, let's flow thru him on the block or high post as a power forward, channel that Raptor Bosh again.
Think about this...
The spurs system could work with Bosh(Al Jefferson would work also, but I look at him as a center) as their PF. His passing and hands are not equal to Timmy but I could see them competing yearly as a contender.
Exactly. Ive never seen anything like that shit bro.![]()
In a game where TD had 17boards, 12 of which came in the second half if im not mistaken. And again, even if we wanted to give him a pass for doing it the first time he absolutely should have put him back in during the second when he KNEW Bosh was in and that TD was eating glass all fucking night in a flashback game where he was killing on both sides of the ball.they missed their 1st 3 point attempt on BOTH shots and bosh got the rebound on BOTh of those.

I swear man this was the weirdest shit ever.
Spurs snatch defeat from the jaws of victory lol

Manu's performance has to be the worse in NBA Finals history.
Manu's performance has to be the worse in NBA Finals history.
get this thread off of sticky
Fuck da heat.....
NO... That goes to BUM ASS JOHN STARKS...
Stark's 2-18 will forever be etched in stone as the absolute... WORST FINALS PERFORMANCE... EVER!!!!..
AND YES... I SAID IT... JOHN STARKS WAS... AND ALWAYS WILL BE... A FUCKIN BUM!!!!
HIM... AND OAKLEY... WERE BUMS!!!...![]()
Manu's performance has to be the worse in NBA Finals history.
But Starks went out gunnin'. Manu just threw the ball away in horrific fashion. Starks missing shots can't compare to random tosses of the ball into the crowd or to Heat players.
So now when the Heat make lemonade out of lemons the nba is fixed now on some wwe shit smh. I know the refs be dirty but I doubt there's any player in the world that would throw a game 7 in the nba finals
My nigga... Starks was TURNOVER MACHINE HIS WHOLE CAREER...
He makes Manu look like Kyrie Erving...
There was a point in that Finals... where every time Starks got the ball... He was BLINDLY JACKING UP SHOTS...
It got SOOO bad that Patrick Ewing finally grabbed him by the jersey and said, ' JOHN!!! WHAT THE FUCK ARE DOING???'
We lost by 6 FUCKIN points...
All he had to do was DRIVE TO THE BASKET... Even if Dream was there... you have a better chance of drawing a foul or making a play than throwing up bricks all night...
Starks and Charles Smith can eat a LIFETIME Supply of Pickled Frog dicks as far as I'm concerned...![]()
Now u see why I stopped fuckin wit them niggas
Starks and Charles smith were the main reasons lol
