[4/5]

Holy smokes.

[nyquillyn]

To be fair, there were a lot of non-calls in the game. The Spurs non-calls just came at a shitty time.

I'm emotionally drained. That's one of the single greatest games I've ever seen in my life.

It was exciting and very entertaining but there was nothing "great" about watching the best player on the planet try and give away the game in the final two minutes and the Spurs missing free throws and continuing to be inept on the glass. Allen's shot was clutch, I guess....

Congrats on your team's title win this year though.

Don't try to jinx this.

If that's what you took away from this game, I'm sorry.

[Peeps]

i didnt watch the game but people bitching about non-calls really need to look at the game closer instead of how it "fucked" their team

[Dr. Van Nostrand]

i had fun watching what i did of that game, really hope game 7 is a good one to watch also

What happened to LeBron's confidence in his jumper?

as pop told green and and every other coach has told their shooters. keep shooting.

i turned it on in last 3 min of the 4th.

what happened to lebron's headband?

i hate the heat.

Incredible game. Everyone seemed to have a big moment. Let's hope Game 7 is half as good.

I hate to blame the outcome on one person but Ginobli was a turnover machine last night. I have no idea why he was the one to take it the hoop on the final possession instead of Parker. I was fine with a no call on Allen because Manu took about 5 steps.

Green was fouled on the three.

if I'm a referee, I don't think I can make that call knowing that SA already should have already been celebrating if they could've hit free throws

This is ridiculous logic. So refs should play God?

it's the NBA, the refs have been playing God for 25 years

and as someone else said, there were just as many non calls against the Spurs, they just didn't come on the final play of the game

it was a great game, but between the missed free throws, Popovich's coaching blunders, and the Spurs inability to even get one rebound when it mattered, it was a game San Antonio literally threw away

Spurs blew it, no doubt, but the Heat's defense was really damn good in the 4th quarter.

I was just about to post this.

As disappointing as the non-calls were (loved LBJ's Jim Brown elbow to Danny Green on that layup), the Spurs really blew this one. Sucks.

I do think, though, that if any team is capable of bouncing back against the Heat in their building, its the Spurs.

I'm thinking Game 7 will be close until the 4th quarter and then the Heat will pull away.

i watched the whole 2nd half and i completely missed what happened to the headband, but they did talk about him not wearing it during commentary

It was really good when it had to be...they seemed to let up once they would get caught up and then turn it on again when they fell behind

Yup. I thought Pop rested Parker a little too long at the start of the 4th quarter too. The Spurs looked all of whack.

You're probably right. Manu's Mr. Fumbles routine was back in action after that great Game 5. 8 turnovers. And Pop's decisions down the stretch were bizarre.
