lmao damn.
He's had a version of that answer over the years. Every series we've been down they've asked him that and he's replied much the same. I agree, it's too late to try anything drastic. If we can't win playing our brand of ball, we can't win. PEACE.
Edit: Anyway, I'm gonna pop off some steam in watch dogs before going to bed. See you guys Sunday, if there's no new Melo news. Thank god there's world cup to distract me all weekend.

People hate and will always hate the heat because of The decision and that silly spectacle they had that summer. Simple as that, plus it's fun to hate dynasties.

This, I don't get how tonight was any different from any night. They don't really trash talk. They don't disrespect opponents. Say the right things. Play basketball unselfishly. Do things that are best for the organization as a whole. I love this team not just cause of their talent but cause of who they are.

I didn't know Pop was considered to be HOF coach after one year.

I honestly don't HATE the Heat but the Spurs need this. They are the better team and they were last time too. Heat won last time. It was a great game or two. They deserved to pull off the upset. This time though no. And if the refs start getting crazy I will have serious problems with the NBA.

Oh they trash talk man. Maybe not in the finals as much but they do it. All the greats do it.
Ah thank you. Me and my buddies were pretty clueless on that, but didn't seem to be injury related since he was running to the locker room and played great tonight.

Remember all those 90's Bulls vs Heat debates? If Kawhi is containing LeBron, just imagine what Pippen would've done to him... Or if you wanna go with the older Bulls, imagine what Pippen AND Dennis would've done to him... Wouldn't have been pretty.
This guy is on the brink of losing to a team with BORIS DIAW as a finals MVP candidate. That is fuckin' embarrassing.

Who he coach fo'?
It doesn't sound like much of anything. An awkward question gets an awkward answer. I wouldn't read too much into it except that Lebron is frustrated as they probably all are.

Another great win for the Spurs. I still picked Spurs in 5 earlier. I'm still sticking with my prediction.

The 72 win Bulls would be pretty much unstoppable in any era imho.

I'm sure Wade would have styled all over MJ though..

They surely have and I won't forget it.
We can go back to Pippen's Bulls, the Kings, some of those Portland games, etc. I'm not saying they would do anything flagrant but they certainly have an impact.

Yeah, some of the usual contenders. I still feel the Bulls would pull it off but it does get iffy. I can't just pull people from one era into the 90s and not think they would possibly even improve.
Still, with Kukoc, Longley, Kerr, and some of those bigs they had (even John Salley lol) they could still match up well. Harper was decent too. And then you have the big 3 and they work together oh so well. It would be some great games.

It's gonna be fun seeing Skip blow a load all over Stephen A's bald ass head tomorrow. I love Skip. Hell I love em both. I love First Take... we should have a First Take OT. It's one of the best shows on TV.

Why wasn't Haslem in earlier? Why didn't they use Battier more? The Heat desperately needed some competitive energy.

Yeah, they would be games of a lifetime... to watch that go down damn. Bird's teams too.

Yeah, some of the questions are really stupid, like asking Pop "if his team won the Championship who would be the Finals MVP?" I mean, seriously? That dude will never be in any NBA press conference anymore.
Spoelstra needs to do some soul searching after these series.

Best thing to happen would be Spurs winning in 5. With this stupid Bayless Spursin6 shit that he has been doing for the past 2 years.

Skip and him are gonna go at it I think. Should be good. Maybe Stephen will bow down a bit though. Sometimes they do that.
Devilgunman

He wanted more firepower on the offensive end and Battier is abysmal at that. That doesn't answer Haslem's dismissive though.
Re-listened LeBron's post game again, I think he answered the question very thoroughly. Agreed completely with him when he said when the Spurs put Patty Mills, Tony Parker, Boris Diaw and Manu on the floor they basically had 4 PG. No wonder why the Heat had so much trouble stopping ball movement.

Stephen A has already given up with the rest of the Heat supporters.
I hope Skip sticks to SPURS IN SIX! and picks Miami to win on Sunday just like he picked them to win tonight (he even wore their colors), he's such a jinx. Just jinx Miami one more time Skip.

Wade and Chalmers and Battier are unlikable players on the court. You know this. Wade hasnt been up to any dirt this year, but that fucker's horse kicked Ramon Sessions in the balls, dislocated Rondo's elbow, almost killed Darren Collison on a fast break play, mugging him from behind. Broke Kobe's nose in a goddamn all star game. The dude is dirty. Battier is a smug piece of shit who likes to play games and fuck around with people. I know that shit can sometimes work, but I dont have to like or respect the underhanded shit he does on the court.
Rio is a fucking douchebag who, for whatever reason, has morphed into a goon.
Birdman tries too hard, why does he strut around like King Kong every damn time he makes a play. Attention whore.
I like Cole and I dont mind Haslem or Lebron.
To be fair Battier came in the second quarter and Bonner promptly styled on him with a drive and floater...

If they win, he probably should. He deserves it.
Spurs could probably compete again next year though if they bring everyone back.

I'd like to see it. Go out on top the right way.
Cos those guys don't give you much offense
what about BOSH
Looking to spurs's contract structure I hope he and the team aiming for the repeat.

Next year is the time most contract in last year, including Manu.

I think he said he's coming back no matter what next year. The way they manage his minutes during the regular season, he could probably a couple more years.

Retire? Have you seen how he's still the best big the NBA? With the minutes to production ratio he has he's still ridiculously productive
And who is stoping the Spurs from repeating? They just need to lock in diaw, and he's not going anywhere with Parker still in SA for the long run

If only the Heat superstars took paycuts like this. But my god Splitter making that much guaranteed. Damn.
