The Official "Oh, We Lost? Must Be Spo's Fault" Thread 

Post#1 » by RJM » Sun Jun 3, 2012 12:35 am

I'm honestly tired of constantly having to come on here and see someone whining about Erik Spoelstra's alleged ineptitude whenever we actually lose a game.

If our moderators will allow, I'd like to make a proposal of my own about this recurring situation: Let's have a thread (much like Random Thoughts or Media) where all Spoelstra-related gripes can go. Let's get this over with, already.

It's always a new thread, so can we please just move everything here and save us all the trouble of yet another knee-jerk topic cluttering up the board? I'll start.

"I heard we lost Game 3 to KG's push-ups and the Boston Celtics. Damn, I can't believe Erik Spoelstra still has a head coaching job in the league."

Not Spo's fault but its not like we lost despite him either.

He should have switched up the defense on KG earlier, that was a glaring mistake.

Of course the people who complain about other people complaining are just as annoying as the original complainers in all facets of life so this thread is just as bad as any of the others.
Your emotions fuel the narratives that you create. You see what you want to see. You believe what you want to believe. You ascribe meaning when it is not there. You create significance when it is not present.

This'll just turn into another spowhinge thread as Greenhat shows. Have we already forgotten the incredible changes he made in the Pacers series? Have we already forgotten that the Celtics are still losing and even a win tonight for them doesn't put them in the favoured position.

I wonder if the spurs board are complaining about how bad Pops is, after all he has a complete roster to choose from and they've just dropped two in a row.
I remember when the Dolphins were perennial contenders

Being unable to get a shot off at the end of regulation, is not acceptable.
For a long time it gave me nightmares,witnessing an injustice like that.It’s a constant reminder of just how unfair this world can be.I can still hear them taunting him, Silly Rabbit tricks are for kids.I mean why couldn’t they just give him some cereal?

And he reverted right back to isos just like that.

who cares about the Pacers series right now?

Wade has been doubled for 3 straight games and we have yet to adjust to it and he has yet to go off.

that's all I'm going to say.

But what has Wade himself done to get himself going besides be incredibly passive and invisible until the 2nd half?? Why is LeBron not capitalizing on the amount of attention Wade is receiving and getting to the baskets for easy layups on every possession to force Boston to adjust???

Spo needs to make adjustments yes, but Wade and LeBron are smart enough to help themselves too.

only team in the league who cant just lose
has to be a glaring issue
have to have a roundtable discussion
have to fire the coach
have to trade half the team
have to psychoanalyze their upbringing and mental stature

jesus fking christ i'd hate to play basketball for this team

1. If Wade could shoot, there wouldn't be a problem.

2. Boston knows how to defend the paint.

3. KG doesn't have to guard anybody and is an ELITE ELITE ELITE help defender.

4. Kevin Durant isn't that good. They put him at a spot on the floor where you cant come and double (Leave Harden or Westbrook, Leave Ibaka who can shoot out to 18 feet)

5. Don't forget it was a bunch of flukey 3 point bombs from Lebron, which beat the Celtics last year.

6. Because of number #2, Miami needed #5 to get past Boston last season. (Battier hits his wide open 3 in OT and the series is 3-1)

7. Stop wondering what is wrong, I just told you.

LeBron 45 minutes (no rest in the 2nd half)

Bosh 14 minutes with 9points, 7 rebs, and our best FT shooter.


I don't get how people can keep defending him.

What this guy said

And someone needs to start calling out Riley

Heat have one good player that is 6'10 or taller
ONE!
And that is Chris Bosh!

Thunder have 4 good players 6 '10 or taller.
Stop being so disrespectful.
