You dont just call NBA Finals games 'over' with 6 minutes on the clock, that doesnt make any sense
The game was only over because the Heat decided not to play anymore defense, Spurs had a layup line going during that coronation
LeBron James just finished out a losing Finals on the bench ...

U just said nobody on the Heat was playing defense then how would they be able to put together a 10-0 run without stop?

have you watched this series? They got smoked the last 3 games. They could not stop the Spurs offense, and couldnt score. Its was over.
Lebron could have scored 50 and got 40 rebounds and they still lose by 20.
The Spurs had a 45 point turnaround in this very game.
It was only a 16 point game with 6+ minutes ... Bron sitting at the FAR end of the bench?
Who's decision is that, Spo, or Bron?
You're the one who said he's the second best of all time and had the audacity to put him over KobeKobe

Think he went to the bench for a quick breather, they fell back down to like 20 again and spo was like fukk it...there's no point bringing him back in
Not one not rwo
It was pretty much over when Beasley and Chalmers came in and they didn't have an answer. The Spurs were still winning the matchups. With six minutes left you knew LeBron was gave everything at that point but his teammates were a disappointment.

I was actually wondering the same thing. That was just weird to me. Even if the game was over keep fighting and hoping to get a run. I think it bothered me more considering how many times we've seen him in games up 20 with like two minutes left. What's the harm in playing?
Not one...just two

That's what I thought too. He had played nearly every second of the game up to that point and it didnt look like he had the energy to go all out and outscore them by 16 by himself. In sure the plan was to give him a breather and see if the other guys could make a mini run and put him in a position to try to erase a 10-12 point lead in 4 minutes. When they were still down 16 a few minutes later, there was no point to bring him back in.

the spurs have been slicing the heat's defense for 5 games and this nikka thinks they were magically going to get 8 straight stops and come back from a 16-point deficit with 5 minutes left
