Spurs on their way

Looks like the Spurs are on their way to winning a 4th championship. They are not flashy they just go and get things done. Just think if the refs had not called a foul on Ginobili in the final seconds of game 7 last year the Spurs might be working on a back to back.

Yah
Cause looking dominate while going up 2-0 pretty much guarantees you're gonna win the title, right?

Start planning that parade, San Antonio!!!

(And, by the way, the foul Ginobili made on Dirk at the end of last year's game 7 wasn't a close call...  it was a pretty blatant call. Not sure if you were saying it was a close call, but whenever I read "if the ref hadn't made that call" I think it was a close call or even a nonexistent foul or something. Even Spurs fans acknowledge that the Dirk play was a foul.)

Free Jason Botts. Now.

I'm not a Spurs fan but...
...the Spurs are better than the Mavs and will not cough up a 2-0 lead.

Sigh
The Mavs did not "cough up" a 2-0 lead... The league Bavetted them out of it.

I guess you could say that the Spurs are better than Mavs and they won't allow Cleveland to get close enough for a Bavetting to take place. But who knows. I haven't been watching the Finals, cause fuck the super-rigged NBA, but I have a hard time believing the league is not going to at least try to push this out to 7, like they did with the Spurs-Pistons finals.

Free Jason Botts. Now.

The Mavs
are better than the Spurs...

I garentee they wouls have beaten the Spurs in the playoffs this year if they got past Golden State...

No doubt in my mind.

Arias is the third cousin of David Ortiz? Sucks for Big Papi...

The WC was rock/paper/scissors
this year, imo.

The Mavs matched up well with the Spurs and likely would have beaten them.

The Suns matched up well versus the Mavs and likely would have beaten them.

The Spurs matched up well versus the Suns and likely would have beaten them, even if Stern and Jackson didn't ruin the series with their ridiculous adherence to the letter of the NBA dogma.

Too bad we got smoked by the freaking Warriors.

Free Jason Botts. Now.

Agree completely...
Couldn't have said it better.  Although, I think Mavs-Suns is a lot closer than Suns-Spurs.  I also really wanted to see a Spurs-Mavs rematch.

Mavs vs. Spurs
Well, we won't know about this year, and it's not the Spurs fault.  However, the Spurs took the Mavs to 7 games last year with Duncan moving like Will Clark and looking ready for retirement.  Duncan looks a little bit better this year.  I'd love to see what Duncan would do to Diop and Dampier this year.

Tony Parker can suck a dick
Mano Giblowme. Tim Duncan cryin like a little bitch about fouls all game long lick a lamas ass!

It was funny seeing the age of the spurs at the end of that game.  So tired they let a one man team almost come back from 30 or so down.  If lebron pulls off 2 in cleveland then its over SA

Age or disinterest
Age, right, that's what it was.  Scoreboard.
