The guy had a triple double, carried the team from a -10 point deficit in the 4th, -5 point deficit with 30 seconds left. Give the guy some credit..

I agree, that he was a no show and choked in the first 3 quarter but in the 4th and OT where it mattered most, Lebron was a beast.

He also had 3 turnovers at the end of the 4th that would have lost the game if ray allen didn't make the three. But that's neither here or there.

I hope I am wrong, but I think the spurs lose game 7. It feels like game 7 after the Lakers were leading the Suns 3-1 and were a rebound away from taking the series at game 6.

The spurs were a rebound away here too, and it might have taken away all their steam. The difference here is that the spurs are just as good as the heat while the lakers were no where near as good as the suns at the time.

seriously. The general public always focuses on what Lebron does wrong and gives him little credit for making the big plays.

These are the type of people who If Lebron didn't take it upon himself to take that three, which he missed and led to Ray Allen's dagger, will chew him out for not stepping up and taking the last shot. These are also the people who will criticize him for missing that last shot.

It's always a lose lose for Lebron...

Bro, you bet on sports and you listen to Bill Walton's insight? You must be broke out of your mind by now. I'm glad you think Heat's going to take it...

SPURS it is.

Lebron should play without his headband more often. Straight went beast mode without it lol

[will.c]

Too much credit to LB, too little to Bosh. Never seen bosh hustle like that for a couple of seasons.

Wade is hurt, so he shouldn't be blamed so much. BUT they should sit him out longer/more often on 7.

Allen was magical with the 3, but that's his thing. Earned his place in Miami with that shot.

Ginobili traveled. AND all players know that refs don't call much towards the end. game-deciding fouls are too controversial and anticlimactic . More fun to watch when the players have to really muscle the last couple plays for the win.

No matter how bad refereeing is, usually it's the team's overall performance that wins & loses games. Hypothetically, even if they were ordered to have bias, they can only do so much before it becomes a very serious issue with the League and media. Further, it's not 1 or 2 plays that determine the whole game, let alone a series.

For Game 6, Spurs simply lost their steam. Not blaming the coach solely, but Pop should have kept their big players in to keep the 10pt lead in 4th.

Just my thoughts...

It doesn't have much to do with Lebron, most stars are treated that way this day in age with social media and forums. Kobe goes through the same thing even after 5 rings. If the internet was as big during Jordans era he would have gone through it as well.

pretty spot on. good insight.

+1 on too much credit to LB, he's got no post games, all that raw power with no moves to finish it, nor can he draw fouls like kobe or MJ. then again, he wants to hog the ball on every possession and try to make a fool of himself, then end up passing it to someone else for a jump shot.

regardless, hes a great athlete, 6"8 at 260, give him some room to run and nothing can stop him from going to the basket, but still far from the young kobe/mj

but then his bald spots would be exposed. he looks younger with the headband.

I heard Duncan and the Spurs are a pretty good defensive/smart team, that might have something to do with it as well.

Lebron was giving the Spurs game 6 late in the 4th. I can't believe how many so called Miami Heat fans were leaving the arena when they were down 5 with seconds to go in regulations. I hope Spurs win game 7. It's sickening watching the so called big three, and the rest of team constantly complain about soft contact, and want the foul. Please enough with Lebron, and the injured Wade. ESPN only talks about them, and not the good job Miami's bench players are doing to get them back in the game. And let's not forget what R.Allen has been doing his entire career, hitting big SHOTS.

[ny325]

Nice job Bosh. He criticized the fans for leaving early and said they shouldn't come to game 7. Should be interesting how the home crowd responds if the Heat loose tonight. Let's Go Spurs.

lol did he really? Good shit Bosh!

Don't blame the guy...what kind of fans leave early when your team is winning. Those select tards make Miami fans look so bad...sucks to have a fanbase like that.
Do that shit in the Bay Area, and someone will call you out on the spot!

Neither team is happy with the officiating. You can see Tony Parker complaining about all the calls when he is driving to the basket. Same with Manu and Duncan glaring back at the refs when they believe they got fouled.

This post season has been very different with the officiating. Things refs called all season, all of a sudden is considered a no call. Few things I can remember in game 6 is Mike Miller getting slapped on the face with a push off while contesting a dunk by Leonard - no call. Clearly a offensive foul. Duncan, Lebron, Parker, Wade in the paint getting hammered - no call. Ginoboli elbowed Lebron in the neck intentionally right in front of the officials - no call. Lebron gets hit on the head and loses headband going for offensive rebound - no call.

What bench player are you talking about that helped Heat win game 6? Heat's bench is almost non-existent except for Ray Allen. The Heat only played 3 person from the bench in game 6 -Battier, Birdman, Allen. No one else but Lebron won game 6. He carried the Heat in the 4th quarter and OT like how MJ and Kobe would. The guy choked for 3 quarter shooting 3-13 with like 10 points and he made 20 points in 4th quarter and OT.

This season's Miami seems to do better when they are put on the spot and criticized. Unlike others, anger and revenge motivates them to do better as a team somehow, especially at the critical moment. I think Miami will come through in the end. IS IT 9 YET?!

[ny325]

Miller hitting a 3, Allen hitting the game winner. Let's not forget how well Wade, and Chalmers played in the first half, while Lebron was nonexistent. Lebron with several turnovers down the strech. Everyone always talks about Lebron, and yes he is a great player. However, he does not have the mental toughness that Kobe, and MJ brought night in, and night out. Lebrons facial expressions after committing several crucial turnovers said a lot, while Miami's fairweather fans depart the arena then want to go back to their seats when the game went into O.T. I say if Miami wins it's a blowout, if Spurs win, it will be close. Let's Go Spurs.

This. Although, if I think Green and Neal can catch on fire, it's gonna be a long night for Miami.

Just looking at the stats he had a good game, but those two turnovers at the end along with missing a pair of threes shine through. As was said....Allen really saved his ass
