Wow I never would have imagined this. The Heat look deflated as they have no answer. Incredible performance by the Spurs. so far

Looks like the better coached team is exploiting the "players" league type team. Spurs play the type of game I grew up with. Complete unselfish team ball.

Also, lebron looks Beat. Larry Bird would have never wussed out like Lebron did in the first half.

LeBron - Greatest player on planet
Chalmers - Sucks rhino cock
Birdman - Really fucking shitty
Wade - Shell of former self
Bosh - Ultra feminine big man
Ray Allen - Okay but about a week away from hanging em up
Lewis - Same as Allen
Cole - If ya can't take Mario's minutes you're terrible

Spurs - 9 good players = better team

People label the Spurs boring and I don't get why. Their ball movement is really fun to watch. The Heat play a lot of iso 1 on 1. I fail to see how that's more entertaining.

Heat has the talent to win. Some times it's just a game of chess, and popovich is making better moves.

I agree with you on wade, he has aged in dog years since last season.

I don't think spoelstra gets enough credit. I thought he did a good job last two years. I think the problem with the heat this year is wade, he's a shell of his former self.

It's a personnel issue. Not saying that Popovich isn't outcoaching the **** out of Spoelstra but they have 4 guys better than Wade and Bosh and Manu is at least as good.

That was evident the day he was hired. No other reason to hire a guy like that, unless it's for a figurehead yes-man who stays outta everyone's way.

Miami has no heart. At least, not as much heart/hunger as San Antonio has.

And if they go after Carmelo, then they'll have even LESS heart on their team haha.

Yeah, Wade used to be Flash now he's Flashes. He can pull together an elite game maybe once every other week. He really hasn't been a top tier guy for a couple years now, too broken down. Bosh should be ashamed though, he should be doing more, still in his prime.

Lebron's playing by himself tonight.

I don't know I only watch the playoffs but Wade was playing damned good until a few days ago. Manu looked done a year ago but the Spurs have put together something special.
I honestly thought the veterans of the Spurs would end up exposed ax past their prime against LeBron. It is like Jordan against the Utah Jazz. But those guys are on a mission and Diaw, Leonard Green Mills) formed an incredible team

That's because he took the previous 2 months off. Apparently 4 series was too much to ask.

Agree about Wade. They join the rest of the league in not being able to guard SA's ball movement. Would like to see some numbers on "passes per possession".
