Imagine: You go 4 for 4 in final appearances and make your 5th one

[Mr210]

but only you (Duncan) and a second year player (Leonard) on your team are the only ones who consistently play well for all 7 games

your starting PG, your 6th man, the other starters are either on bum status all series (ie Splitter) or only show up for like 2 games (Green)

that shyt would sting

 

[CrimsonTider]

Green showed up for more than 2 games

Duncan was bad at the beginning of the series.

They lost to a better team

i agree they lost to a better team, and no green only showed up for 2 games, and duncan showed up every night, close thread

Parker, the "best point guard in the league", fukkin sucked

 

[Illin Degenerate]

certainly could argue the heat were the better team, but its hard to use that cliche when you choke away the series in all time chokejob fashion.

I think Parker played well, but he ran into good defense towards the end of the series. You need to give the other team credit sometimes when they play well.

Danny Green was hitting open jumpers in the first 5 games. The last 2 he was being played tight and not getting open looks like that, everything was contested.

Now, Manu Ginobili played AWFUL. But he has been inconsistent plenty of times and the Spurs have won with him playing like that.

So in the end, give credit to the other team. They played well and took advantage of the chances the Spurs allowed for them.

Parker played well and is definitely the best PG in the league right now. I felt he should have been more patient in these last two games against the Heat's defense.

Duncan started off cold but got back to his usual self and Leonard is the future of the Spurs.

You can tell Duncan is shook right now and pissed too. He probably never saw himself losing a finals. It was always curtains when he got this far with 2005 Detroit Pistons being the only scare in the finals.
