feeling bit better now, i guess just few things i want to cap off the season: 1. still love this team and see a good future, although changes are definitely necessary, especially defense, bench and coaching 2. i think mchale's contract is up...not sure how dwight will feel given mchale was a big part of the recruitment pitch, but i certainly don't think mchale is the right coach. i'd be happy to give up a first rounder for thibs XD 3. i never, ever, want to play against LMA in the playoffs, the way the ref treated him was to the point of unfair. i know i'm just whinging him, but he got away with so much yet we couldn't breathe on him 4. lillard is a god. 5. i'm just glad that shot didn't come in game 7. that would have been worse anyway, rooting for the spurs rest of the way. goodnight y'all just to emphasise the fail, mchale said we played great D on the last play, parsons/bev/harden was still discussing switching while it was getting inbounded....93% of people on clutchfans wants mchale gone.

The Spurs/Mavs series is so unpredictable. A different player goes off for Dallas every night and both teams sometimes decide to randomly break down on defense. Spurs definitely have the advantage because Dallas seems to always concedes the easy mismatch for Parker/Duncan/Splitter in favor of guarding the 3 point shots. The Mavs are praying it doesn't come back to bite them; the Spurs are praying Dirk doesn't continue hitting his mid range shot because then the whole Mav's offense opens up if he starts hitting that shot off the pick and pop. So many games to watch tomorrow too! | ||

Lakers won a series vs the Thunder in '10 off a Gasol tip in off a Kobe Bryant miss in game 6. It wasn't quite the same level of spectacle as Lillard's was but it still counts. | ||

I guess ESPN doesn't count those but for all intents and purposes as far as i'm concerned they are the same thing. Another example: Again, not anywhere near the spectacle as Damien Lillard's but the impact is just as big. | ||

Another example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hFZZasMfEMU Again, not anywhere near the spectacle as Damien Lillard's but the impact is just as big. .5 is enough time to catch and shoot. Lillard's shot was in the air with .4 on the clock on a .9 second inbound. You can say 'it's kind of the same thing' all you want, but then you see teams lose with sub 1 second on the clock and realize wait no, it's not the same at all. Basically think of it this way. Chandler Parson's put his shot in with what, 1.5 left? Had Houston won this game you'd have called it the same class of shot as Lillard's, except Lillard's leaves no room for Lillard's shot. That's the difference. The only thing left to do is a quick video replay as a formality. | ||

Not sure if more mad about this or bellinelli hitting a 3 pt shooter in the head. Spurs better close this out at home >.< | ||

What people are talking about are buzzer beaters to win a series, which are super rare. exactly. like the other poster said, parsons couldve had one of those game winning shots. now i know in my last post i was being a dick, but buzzer beaters are called buzzer beaters for a reason, as after those shots there was still enough time to get a shot off, as any laker fan would know. | ||

Sure was. And it wasn't just the 3. He scored 11 in the last 2 minutes to send the Jazz to the finals. Stock was incredibly clutch. He sucked in 98 because he was coming back from injury, but he was the Jazz' best player by far in 97. | ||
