Re: ~~2013 NBA Finals Miami Heat Vs San Antiono Spurs~~

funny how the Pacers and Nets had the Heats number but now the Heat had no competition eh

okay carry on....

Heats number.. You mean Spo wouldn't use his line up properly allowing teams like the Pacers, Celtics, Bulls and even the Spurs to play them too close... So far in the playoffs he been coaching lights out, and the team been playing the way the should have been playing all along..

They always change the narrative to give a pass to whom ever lose to the heat while if the heat lose they will call the big 3 a failure smh

Win or lose this finals going to 4 straight finals and winning 2 is a success.. When the Heat win this one it will be a dynasty because make no mistake if the big 3 re up make it 5 straight finals and now we talking uncharted territory

They did that Year 1. All year long it was "Heat wont get past the Celtics" "D Rose is the MVP, Bulls got homecourt, blah, blah" Soon as they knocked them off, the narrative chnged. The Heat WERE SUPPOSED TO win it all and "choked". To get to the Finals that year was an accomplishment. Goal posts will always be moved back for Inkosi.

So the players aren't getting paid?
No free agent signings on the spurs?
If Lebron decides he wants to play for the spurs next year they gonna turn him away?

How are the Heat the underdogs in this series? Last time I checked, the defending champs are still the champs until dethroned.

12 out 18 picks the Spurs?

I say this series is going 6 for the Heat or 7 for the Spurs. I can't call it on either side though.

I think it's going 7. Spurs are just as good as least year and I don't think the Heat are any better this year. Remember, we're a Bosh rebound away from the Spurs winning that series in 6.

I always put my money on super stars in game 7 and Miami has more of them.

I do think home court is important...moreso for the Spurs than Miami. No way(IMO) Spurs go to Miami and win a game 7 but I think it's possible for Miami to win game 7 in San Antonio.

I still need to see how healthy Parker is. He was giving Miami hell last year.

Yea. That's some idiotic logic. Probably from a bitter ass owner.

Its not as outlandish as it sounds bro. I wouldn't be surprised if its a short series. The longer it goes the more it favors Miami.

It's a tough call man.


both teams can win on the road. I don't see the spurs winning both games at home. I don't think game 1 is important for either team as much as game two would be. Game two could put either team down 2-0.me thinks they both split on each home court with the big game 5. If heat wins game 5 then I have them in 6. If the spurs win game 5 then I have them in 7. Don't see the spurs closing heat in Miami, so there best chance would be at home in 7.

According to what you said about superstars and how I feel about the spurs not closing in Miami in 6, then they would have to do it in 5

not gonna happen.

Re: ~~2013 NBA Finals Miami Heat Vs San Antiono Spurs~~

I'm getting tired of the woe is us act yall put out there.

The east is weaker than the west. The pacers should have lost every round they played before the heat and ended up losing to the heat.

I have said numerous times that the wizards are the #2 team especially after watching them play in the playoffs.. they just need to keep growing they're young.

This doesn't diminish anything that the heat did in the playoffs because you can only play the people in front of you. it doesn't mean that the spurs are going to beat the heat either.

It's getting to the point that you can't even be objective about the heat. If you say something critical or something not in line with claiming they are demi-gods then you have some motive behind it..

Straight up disrespecting the heat.. All them cacs and brainwashed house niggas...

I hope the heat lock in and sweep these niggas on some real shit

Spurs can't admit to themselves they lost to a team that wasn't 100% healthy themselves

Wade healthy now who guardin him on SA? Ginobli? Green?

Heat gonna wash these clown niggas up.. Spurs on some entitled shit and the media putting the battery in their backs

They focus on Ray shot but don't focus on OT that game where they had another chance to make up for their choke job.. They failed

Game 7 they got smoked.. Fuck them and their fans.. Can't even give the team that beat them credit for the win

 

[Mask]

Re: ~~2013 NBA Finals Miami Heat Vs San Antiono Spurs~~

The Spurs changed their offense too a more up tempo scheme, where they don't depend on star players as much. Guess that's enough to pick them. These picks like same as last year's!!!

Re: ~~2013 NBA Finals Miami Heat Vs San Antiono Spurs~~

Take the Heat out of the east, last I checked since the big 3 came together they've had a winning record in the reg season and playoffs against the west..

So stop it with the east is trash and so how it translate into Miami padding their record.. Heat are a top 5 team in the west..

I think they x factor is Lewis (who could imagine saying that a few weeks ago). Miami can go small ball effectively and open the floor. Miami is a different team when they can go small and put shooters out there... Lewis is playing the Mike Miller role....

The East is super trash though. The #3rd best team in the East (in terms of record) may not even have made the playoffs if they were a WC team. But you can't win a title coming out of the east unless you beat the West's best team so in the end, it really doesn't matter.

It does matter because one side has such a tough row to hoe in making the finals that is becomes a battle of attrition while the other side coasts to the finals unscathed and fully in tact.

Miami played the fucking Bobcats! And lest not forget they were getting that work downlow until Al tore his foot in two.

*Disclaimer: Heat are a top 3 team in the league regardless of where they play. BUT, playing in a shit conference provides them a much easier road to the finals while allowing them to expend less energy than the tighter matched teams in the west.

And as crazy as it may sounds, 6 teams in the East would still make it to the playoffs if we were to take the top 16 teams.

With four more wins, the Miami Heat will match one of Michael Jordan's greatest feats -- three straight NBA championships -- but former Bull Horace Grant says that doesn't mean LeBron James' team could have beaten those Chicago teams.

"The Heat wouldn't have had a chance," Grant said Tuesday on WSCR-AM in Chicago. "We would have locked them up. We would have locked them up. Especially with the rules today, Michael would have had a field day."

The Heat are in their fourth straight NBA Finals and will face the San Antonio Spurs for the second year in a row. Game 1 is Thursday night in San Antonio (9 ET, ABC).

Jordan led the Bulls to three straight NBA championships from 1991 to '93 and then did it again upon coming back from retirement with three titles from 1996 to '98. The Los Angeles Lakers were the last team to win three championships in a row (2000-02).

Grant was part of the Bulls core that won the first three championships before he left as a free agent for the Orlando Magic.

Who will Grant be pulling for in these NBA Finals?

"My fingers and toes are crossed that San Antonio wins just for the fact of being a fan of [coach Gregg] Popovich and the way that organization carries itself and the guys on the floor: Tim Duncan, [Manu] Ginobili, [Tony] Parker, [Kawhi] Leonard," Grant said. "I'm a big San Antonio fan."

And if Charlotte and Brooklyn played in the west the wouldn't have made the postseason. Look man, the east is fucking trash. That takes nothing away from Miami, but its fact.
