Something people didn't seem to notice was the switch in OT where Bruce guarded Chauncey and completely shut him down after he was on fire. Meanwhile TP did a great job on Rip also.


Yeah I noticed that too. Bowen had Chauncey on lockdown at the end of OT, and Rip didn't do shit the majority of the game.

Kerr literally won the game for the Spurs in a crucial game 5. Spurs were down by 15 or so, and Pop decided to bring in Kerr who proceeds to MOTHERFUCKING TORCH THE SORRY ASS MAVERICKS OVER A SPAN OF 12 MINUTES.

Worst thing I've ever witnessed.

Soups ON!! Spurs fans, the game's being replayed on ESPN..

Will fate change the outcome and make Horry's shot rim out???

The black man everyone at Activision can agree on
I didn't watch the game but I'm reading the recap... Robert Horry... again.... you go boy.... what was Rasheed thinking? (I know it's already been asked probably here and in sports articles across the US). And that dunk by Horry? Damn. ;) So many shots over so many years... so many leading directly or indirectly to championships... if that man doesn't get in to the HOF it'll be a SERIOUS error.

one of the best finals games of all time. daaaaaamn, Horry was fuckin' clutch. In the first half, I was like, "GET THAT BUMB OUT OF THERE! HE'S TRYING TO DO THINGS HE HAS NO BUSINESS DOING!" Then in the 2nd half, Horry shut me and the entire palace up with what he does best... daggers to the heart! Who are the most clutch players of our time? Could we have an all clutch (or cold-hearted killers) list...

Horry
Reggie

Who else??

You forget quickly. Horry hit a 3 in the late seconds of game 1 and 2....but the games was already over by then :)

The only consolation I got from Game 5 was the fact that I could refer to Tim Duncan as Nick Anderson in the 4th quarter...

:lol :lol

Duncan needs to stop riding Kerr/Horry's coattails.

I can never get enough of that picture. The way Malone is completely unaware of his own victimization despite the ball being halfway to the ground already is just priceless. :lol


Nice reflexes, there, "Karl Malone." :D

90's - 2000's All NBA Clutch Team:

PG: Billups
SG: Reggie
SF: Jordan
PF: Horry
C: Olajuwan

These guys would be unbeatable in a finals game.

I knew tonight if they win, they win game 6.

Spurs close it out tuesday or Pistons win it all. Game 7 at SA is tough tough shit, but the Pistons are the best clinching team in the NBA, SA can NOT give them a chance to clinch.


IAWTP. Spurs have an opportunity to close this thing down. Although, the Pistons play best with their backs against the wall... :D





Can't wait

You guys can't leave Kobe off the all clutch team. Guy has made as many game winners as Horry and he is half his age. Of course you can't take Horry off either, so just put Jordan on the bench. :D

I still can't believe what huge pussies the refs were in game 5. Is there some special rule that allows the Pistons to get away with anything when they are at home? People always bitch about the Lakers getting special calls, but hell I have never seen anyone get away with those kind of calls. Not even Jordan in his prime could elbow someone in the face at the end of the game and get away with it! I swear EVERY single replay when Hubie Brown would be talking about how awesome the Piston's defense was, you would see someone getting hit on the wrist or across the forearm. Stern is going to have work extra hard to edit that shit out of the dvds. I always wondered about the players who play like thugs in a game. Even if a ref is letting you get away with murder, it seems like only a bunch of bums would actually take advantage of it for the entire game.

And WTF happened with Duncan and his FTs? He would stand up at the line for about 20 seconds and throw up the biggest turds the world has ever seen. He could have iced the game with his free throws, but on the bright side he set the stage for Horry to take over again. Seriously, Incognito was right that this was almost as bad as the Nick Anderson choke. I have seen Shaq lose a game or two with FT shooting that bad, but you can't call it a choke for a guy who doesn't have any range outside of 5 feet. Duncan has a good shot, so that was purely a choke and you could see him almost crying in fear on the line.

Did Konex take over Incognito's account or something? Konex seems to have disappeared and at the same time everything Incognito picks turns to garbage, which makes me suspicious...

Can a 26 and 19 game really be called a choke job?

He almost pissed away the game in the end, but it was because of him that the Spurs were in a position to win all game long. Plus he is still playing on two bum ankles at 80% and Tim himself said they start hurting around the 4th quarter. Despite his shortcomings on offense down the stretch, his D was key to the Spurs win. Of course, all the positive things get ignored. I mean, he outrebounded the Wallace's frontcourt. The one the media jerks off for as if it was from another planet.

But other than yesterday, he has been really clutch in the 4th through the whole playoffs.

Were you watching the same game as me yesterday?

I am not taking anything away from Duncan. He has come up big so many times in the past and I have said a billion times on this forum that I think he has been the best player in the world since Shaq decided to get fat.

Even though Duncan stunk it up, he gets a lot of props for coming out and admitting as much after the game. Also, he was pretty hilarious in his press conference as well.

Exactly. Detroit's a disgrace, as I've said numerous times throughout the playoffs. The refs are a joke as well for allowing it. They'd show replays of fouls, and there were without exception 2-4 fouls committed PRIOR to the foul that was actually called. Shameful.


Biggest bunch of hackers since Riley's Heat/Knicks. The dynasty ('00-'02) Lakers were huge hackers too, but usually it was only in the 4th quarter, when they'd go on one of their fabled "runs" (which was code for "let us hack the shit out of them this quarter"). With Detroit it's for the full 48.

How can anyone take satisfaction from winning that way though?

Edit: Leave the Lakers out of this! Everyone knows the Lakers didn't play defense!

Shh, let the Laker fans think the Pistons are the only team in the last 5 years who got away with hacking :p

I am sure the Lakers like EVERY team got away with some calls. I have never seen it as blatant as with the Pistons though.

And I don't want to hear this from a Jordan fan! I have tape of Jordan STABBING Magic Johnson in game 2 of the NBA Finals. The refs called a technical foul on Magic on that play btw because he got blood on Jordan's sneakers.
