Sup homies, thought I'd make a thread where we can debate what's goin down in the finals. I think it's safe to say the Miami Heat are the favorites, but I'm rooting for the Spurs.

Lebron is a beast and by far the most entertaining player, but the Spurs are deeper more consistent and built for coming from behind, so I pick them in 7. Post your game picks and how many games you think it'll take. Let tip-off begin...

Im sorry but this is ridiculous. The level of play is leaps and bounds (no pun intended) above college ball. There were blown calls last night, there always are. It happens in the NFL every season too. Sports are fast moving, basketball being one of the fastest, you cant call everything. The Spurs should have won that game, but they have no one to blame but themselves. Its certainly not rigged, if it was, every year every series would be 7 games for commercial revenue, and the Heat wouldve won in their first year.

Actually I would say the morons who left the Heat game early and then tried to get back in are the worst kinds of sports fans on earth. Such a disgrace, even if the Heat lost at least give them a standing ovation for trying their best and making it to 3 straight finals.

I on the other hand went to game 6 in Indy during the Pacers series and wore my LBJ jersey all night even after the Heat got steam rolled. The amount of heckling I received a the bars after that game was pretty redic.

I would say I am annoying to argue with tho, just not a bad sports fan.

you are the worst kind of idiot, WE ARENT TALKING ABOUT PARKERS THREE, it has nothing to do with allens lucky shot did you see how off balance he was when he jumped and how many people there were around him? thats all im saying you are trying to argue with me about luck cancelling out other luck and retarded ass shit, also do you think timmy, manu, tony parker, or anyone is fazed on the spurs? shit happens and theres a reason they are 4 time NBA champs i guarantee win by the spurs and will put my money down to back it up, why are you too much of a bitch to do the same?

Hahaha, so if Ray's 3 was lucky, which I am telling you it wasn't, but if it was you're implying it was the reason why the heat didn't deserve to win. Because if they deserved the win you wouldn't of said "the heat were lucky as hell tonight".... Do you understand that implication your making? Luck implies not deserved, it like saying I won the lottery, I didn't deserve to win it, I just got lucky.

And to play devils advocate and try to make your argument a moot point, I just said if Ray's 3 was lucky, so then was Parker's. If you remove both those 2 plays Heat still win as Parkers 3 tied the game up.

I am just saying the Heat deserved to win last night, without question, stop trying to discredit that by saying they were lucky. I will say the Heat are lucky that the spurs blew the game, and couldn't finish...

I have never seen a 5 point comeback like that in a NBA FINALS elimination game in my life. Post game even Magic was saying it was on the of the greatest games he has ever seen. So yes unless you are Micheal Jordan who had one of the strongest mental games out there, I would say the spurs are pretty fucking decimated emotionally and mentally right now. The NBA brought out the trophy getting ready yo present it to the Spurs, everyone thought it was over, and for it to not be and now have to play again on the road after that, yes that would fucking lose your edge.

Save your fucking money and go back to school, hopefully it will improve your poor reading comprehension, so I can stop wasting my time.

yea they're great players but its still a shitty league with scripted outcomes. every. single. year. getting emotionally invested in an NBA team seems silly to me. NBA officiating is way more inconsistent than NFL, yea theyre both bad but thats not the point. the NBA has a different set of rules for certain teams, certain players, certain times of the game, and certain times of the season

Sure, questioning authority is always a good thing, but i think youve taken it quite far. People who think the NBA/NFL/any other pro sport is rigged need to get off their couch and go do something real in their lives.

if the NBA was fixed san antonio would never make the finals, its such a small market with no real superstars, the NBA would make much much more if the lakers or clippers made the finals or some other big market team from the west

SA as a small market is misleading since they have players from; the Virgin Islands, France (x2), Argentina, and Brazil. Being rigged isn't the same as determining the outcome, games at the shore or whatever are rigged but still winnable.

I realized you were pretty old actually, doesn't change the fact that I think you need to go back to school...

And I am from Cincinnati, no NBA team, well we had the Royals years ago. LBJ went to high school a couple hours away from where I live, he is the only good thing to come out of this state in a long time, he had quite the fan base in Cincinnati. No one cares about Cleveland since we are rivals in every other sport so yea when he left didn't bother me, still was my favorite player.

so lets bet come on it will make it interesting for the both of us, or if you dont wanna bet real money we can bet that whoever loses the bet has to make a thread saying how stupid they are, i dont care, and i completely understand what you are saying about tony parkers shot im just saying it has nothing to do with our argument, and i would even agree that it was a lucky shot

watched most of game 6. now i remember why i hate basketball. the whole thing is decided by the referees. i have no idea what the fuck a foul is. sometimes guys get hacked to shit and nothing is called, other times it's an ever so slight wrist touch and it's a foul. what a retarded game.

Why would you have a a favorite team if your city doesn't have one? Or if all the cities around you that do have one are your rival in every other sport your city has a team for? Am I just supposed to pick a team at random and be like "Oh I like golden state cause they have a cool stadium?"

And yup if LBJ goes to another team I will start following that team, except if it Boston, fuck Boston. And please don't make it out to seem being a LBJ fan isn't a true fan. It was difficult to support him even after he made a ass of himself during the decision and even worse when he after the Dallas loss.

I think it is weird for all the Celtic fans who used to jizz over Ray Allen, now hate his ass whenever he makes a 3.

If the day ever comes when Cincinnati gets a NBA team again then I will be obviously a fan of my team. But for kids who just randomly like an NBA team without actually being affiliated at all with that city I think it is weird as fuck to be a fan.

At least LBJ grew up a few hours from where I live.

I like Lebron, he's a good guy. And I want him to make a good run on MJ. I like Battier. And I like Bosh because he used to be a Raptor

can't deny lebron's skill and i was a huge fan too, but he has been kind of a cry baby bitch in some of these playoff games. he looked like a damn soccer player flopping out there against the pacers and early games of this series. of course he didn't stay down cuz he's a brickhouse but its like, come on you vaginas, its basketball a contact sport, quit flailing cuz you got bumped trying to cut through the lane.

plus its hard not to like duncan either cuz he's so underrated, the only reason im going for the spurs. then he can be in the same category as kobe

This. Also i cant fucking stand LeBron, because if he drives and misses his layup. He stands under the basket bitching about how there should of been a foul. Also if he picks up a foul he fucking completely loses it and act like he did nothing wrong.
and am i the only one suprised that the spurs are only down by 2? I have not completely been watching the game, ive been on NS and just listening to it and watching parts of it, cuz to me what it seems like is that the Heat are controlling the whole game.

The whole game has been sloppy so far, but yeah it seems like the Heat should be up by more. Spurs look tired but are somehow still in it.
And yeah I'm not a fan of Lebrons bitching but I still like him and will be really disappointed if they don't win

this to a tee. i can't fucking stand when people do that.

but yeah this game is sloppy, i still feel like the spurs will be out of gas and if this game is close by the 4th, the heat will run away with it. they shoulda closed on the last game and didn't do it. but at least ginobli isn't a complete flop tonight like in game 6 so thats a plus

Ginoblis turnover ended the game pretty much. well miami deserved the win, i really dont care that they won it, but the part that i hate about them winning it is that the media will just dickride the shit out of them. like ESPN for the next few weeks will just be about how good LeBron and the heat are.
