Not happy with the way that game ended. It made a classic game be overshadowed by some shady officiating. No way was that a clean block and Ginobili was hit across the arm on the drive. At least one of those calls should be made.
I agree. There were some key calls at the end of the game plus some questionable coaching. Wow
What a game. Nice quiet triple double by James. Ginobili was awful, terrible passes and sloppy on offense. Heat's 3 point shooting was very strong. Imagine how much better a player LeBron James would be if he didn't stand their complaining every time both teams players run down the court without him... Guess that comes with being called the KING or the CHOSEN ONE since you were a teenager dominating all the undersized opponents. They're not gonna hand you the trophy Mr. James, you have to earn it. Guy is a great player and his game has evolved to improve so much, just has to toughen up that psyche some.

Hope this game hasn't taken all the air our of them and they get run over by Miami in game 7, but I fear it's a forgone conclusion and you are right. The comparisons to Jordan are a stretch and a bit much, but LJ sure is good.
The no call on Ginobili's drive didn't bug me, looked like he traveled anyway. Manu sucked today.
I think those missed free throws is what lost the game for the Spurs. If they make a few of those shots, its a good chance they win the series. Can't blame the refs for that.

Spurs choked this game away...unbelievable...thought Duncan would get his 5th ring....i felt Spurs had to win game 6 to win the title and if only they had hit just a couple FTs down the stretch...i doubt they win game 7 now....i wonder if duncan ran out of gas in the 4th....heat fans leaving the arena too with just under a minute left..

Most of the country thought the Spurs won the title. I was preparing to go to bed and then Ray Allen hit that fade away 3 pointer
The Ginobili drive was questionable and could have been called a travel or a foul, but the Danny Green shot was not. Bosh hit him before he even blocked the shot. There was a ton of body contact.
I wouldn't like to focuse on some 50/50 calls in this game. Why? Because here would be no discusion if Pop made right decisions in the 4 quater. Obviously Greg is outstanding coach but today he didn't help his team.
1. Spurs +10. 4 quater. Audience is quiet. Pop shouldn't put bench player to play because that allowed miami to make this game tight. if he decided to play with best players maybe Spurs would increase the lead to +15 or keep in on +10 which would make miami feel more stressed and audience would start to feel that there is no hope any more. The factor of audience is very important and is the huge advantage for the hosts.
2. +5 30 seconds to end. Small line up. Why no Splitter, why no Bonner why no Duncan. Miami off rebounded 2 times the b ball which let them to shot 2 priceless 3 pointers which lead to over time.
3. Why duncan was playing in the 4 quater. We all noticed that he was out of power after astonishing 1 half. Spiltter started this period really well shoting 2 really tough shots.
Spurs should have won this game. They were better as a team. Far better.
