    Probably the only game I'll get to fully watch live tonight. 2AM games are too late for me.


  • Registered Users Posts: 33,749 ✭✭✭✭RobertKK


    I am a big Miami Heat fan, expecting a big game from the Heat tonight, once there is air con to cool the Heat down :p

    So many soft fouls called on the Spurs already. I hope this is not going to be a game-long thing.

    Looking like Ginobli's in danger of having one of "those" games. He's been rancid so far.

    Was pissed drunk the other night, so maybe my recollection isn't 100%, but I thought there were an awful lot of soft calls going in favour of the Heat. Seems like it's much the same tonight.

    Good start for the Spurs. That Guy seems to be forcing things a bit.

    Three to close out the quarter would be lovely...

    ... nope. Still, I'd take it.

    To be fair to Manu, he did have one beautiful reverse layup in the 1st around Birdman, hasn't been terrible this quarter.

    Splitter really needs to learn that he's not a PG. Got a bit disjointed for a couple of minutes there, played right into the Heat's hands.

    Best moment so far has to be Jeff van Gundy bigging up the lowrider, lolz.

    11 point lead for the Spurs cut to 4 on a 7-0 Heat run. Terrible sequence of play from the Spurs, full of turnovers and missed buckets. Heat defense is giving them lots of opportunities though.

    Refs doing their damndest to keep Miami in this.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,833 ✭✭✭NufcNavan


    Oh I do hate Dwayne Wade.


  • Registered Users Posts: 28,710 ✭✭✭✭Paully D


    43-43 at the half.

    Spurs offense just completely stagnated in that 2nd quarter after building up an 11 point lead. LeBron causing a lot of trouble in the post. The refs giving the Heat a lot of help too it must be said.

    Agree with Simmons there. Spurs could have gone up by around 15 only for they missed a couple of layups and turned the ball over a couple of times. Big opportunity that will, IMO, come back to haunt them.

    Yup. Back now. Preferred it without commentary.

    Meanwhile, Kawhi L3onard.

    LeBron's taking over.

    *EXHALES*

    Some quarter. Spurs up by 1 heading into the fourth.


  • Registered Users Posts: 28,710 ✭✭✭✭Paully D


    That's filthy from Chalmers, ****ing filthy.


  • Registered Users Posts: 28,710 ✭✭✭✭Paully D


    YGTMYFT.

    I'm calling it now those 4 missed FT's will be the cause of the Spurs losing this.


  • Site Banned Posts: 26,456 ✭✭✭✭Nuri Sahin


    12 from 21 at the line, ugh.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,833 ✭✭✭NufcNavan


    This has been a great game.


  • Site Banned Posts: 26,456 ✭✭✭✭Nuri Sahin


    2.25 left, Spurs up 1 after that big Parker 3 ball.

    That was the most predictable result ever. This Heat team just don't lose after going 1-0 down. 13-0 in that situation now.

    The much maligned Bosh with the big shot. The most underrated player in the NBA for me.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,833 ✭✭✭NufcNavan


    Ginobli made a mess of that. Poor shot selection.

    1-1 surely.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,980 ✭✭✭Carcharodon


    Hopefully that puts an end to the whole cramps saga, lebron was immense.


  • Registered Users Posts: 53,028 ✭✭✭✭ButtersSuki


    Lot going on in the real world for me at the mo so didn't get to see this game either. All I can say is "f**k"

    Ah now, come on, let's not get too carried away.

    He'll be kissing his ass in the club again like he did last year if they lose again this time.

    I had €10 on the Heat to win, their amazing record after losing the first game in the playoff is they win game 2.
    Spurs were the odds on favourites, while the Heat were 10/7 to win that game.
