This Miami team is loaded with weapons. Do not count them out.

Seeing Heat fans complain about zebras is so lol.

Spurs play like a real team should. They have lapses of tomfoolery, but every team makes mistakes. The collective Bball IQ of the Spurs blows away that of Miami. Some of their passes and their spacing is immaculate. If it wasn't for stupid Harden, maybe Miami would have no rings right now?

I was thinking the same thing. Miami won confortably without him in game 4, though, so i guess Spo wanted to roll with the same rotation.

The Heat are trying to spread the floor. Birdman doesn't have much of a role under those circumstances.

When they play intelligently, they are brutal to stop. San Antonio played them well, but they also broke Miami's collective will, I think, or something else happened. The Heat very definitely didn't play their game and we all saw Lebron not doing the one thing which was consistently helped him, which is initiating in the post (elbow/low-block).

If the refs called the game right the Heat would have won
If Westbrook didn't get injured the Spurs wouldn't be in the finals

Of course you can't count them out, but the Spurs are every bit as loaded as Miami and have a 3-2 lead.

Manu, when he's on, plays the most beautiful basketball of anyone I've seen. There was a period when he was legit the 2nd best shooting guard in the league, even off the bench. Masterful performance from the future HOF.

Are you kidding me? did you not see the stretch in the third quarter, when Miami was pretty close to tying the game and he took the game on his back? maybe YOU need to know what clutch means.

Perhaps he was referring to the fact that he got buckets at a needed time, breaking Miami's back with layup after layup in a timely fashion.

"Clutch" doesn't only refer to "in the last two minutes with neither team up by more than 5," you know.

The guy above me said it right.
They were momentum changing shots, not clutch shots

Still doesnt make up for the calls for the Heat all season, dont feel bad about your team getting 4 calls.. you wont see Heat fans admitting it when the ref's are on the Heats side..

Apperently the only way the heat go all is when their backs are against the wall. Well now it is yet again so i expect the heat to play well Tuesday. Heat will still win this series.

Tiago has been brutal this series. He needs to hit the gym in the offseason.
