    You mean where LeBron shoved green to the ground with his arm?

    I know he's Manu and all, but I would have thought that Pop of ALL people would have the sense to leave him out in the last couple minutes of the 4th and OT. Boris Diaw was doing a tremendous job playing defense and not screwing up the offense.

    On the other side, Spo putting in Wade late in the 4th killed LeBron's momentum as well. Wade coming in screwed up the spacing and almost cost the Heat the game. But that is something I would expect out of Spo.

    I tallied fouls. After 2 1/2 minutes into the 4th quarter (I begin where the pattern started) it was Spurs committing 6 fouls, Heat 2. That doesn't include no-calls.

    Stern wants the bigger market and the younger superstar of the future to win.

    Ginobili had a chance to be the hero after his horrible game, but he was FOULED! Man how can you not call that. This is the championship that got away.

    If Manu shows up I think the Spurs win game 7.

    By the way, Chris Bosh MVP game 6. The number of critical plays he made was ridiculous.

    Bosh was the difference on defense.

    I always hated the fact people consider him a choke artist. The expectations put on Lebron are pretty ridiculous, he could put up 60/20/20 but if they lose the championship game it will be HIS fault.

    Ray Allen saved his ass. Otherwise we'd be talking about his 3 clutch turnovers.

    If he doesn't hit every shot, he's a "choke artist" according to some of the 'experts' on this board. Amazingly, that troll stopped posting after the Heat took it to OT.

    No, you'd be talking about them. Plus Allen wouldn't have been able to "save his ass" had James not hit a 3 on the possession before.

    But, you're a troll, so whatever.

    I wish you guys would take your bitching elsewhere. Been really enjoyable here without it for the last few months.

    Anyways, watching Manu's post game conference, you can totally sense how authentic and genuine the guy is. No cliches, no excuses, no facades.

    Just straight up owning up to his mistakes. And honest responses on how they're gonna overcome this.

    Kobe Bryant choked in Game 7 against the Celtics. Fortunately for him, he had Ron Artest and Pau Gasol pick up the slack, and suddenly Kobe is The Man!

    6-24 in a game seven. Turrrible

    After he bricked the 3 prior and Ray Allen saved his ass again by grabbing the carom and tossing to him for another heave.
