Have you seen the Pops hate-thread on the GB ?

It's hilarious.

After g6 there was so much hate for Pops for leaving Duncan on the bench ... most likely from the same people who'd have criticised him endlessly if he put Duncan in and the Heat got an open 3 pointer because Duncan wouldn't be able to defend the 3p line.
Funniest part is that most of those posting are not Spurs fans. They are Bulls and Knicks fans, and some Lakers and other teams' fans. I guess most Spurs fans know better than to **** on Pops, even if it was a mistake - which I doubt. Without Pops, the past 4 titles, 5 finals and 15 years of contending are not happening.
Now there are a bunch of threads bashing Manu. And Pops for rolling with Manu, and wondering why. Because Manu helped them win 3 previous titles, helped them get here again, and Pops is a loyal guy.
And there's (of course) a thread about the refs:

I might be biased (though I don't think so), but it seemed to me that the Heat couldn't get a call.
Well, I guess haters will have a(nother) **** summer/year.
PS: Mods, I would appreciate if you would leave this open.
