Keepin' it Neal.

Spurs need to keep their foot on the gas. Heat are out of sync, but can make a quick run if given just a little bit of life.

They are playing *hard* right now. Too bad those 3 or 4 turnovers that they got out of Miami didn't turn out to be too many more points. Hopefully they have some gas left in the tank at the end of the 4th.

Damn vi edit, it looks like Ginobili saw your post about him not being able to get up anymore. He's thrown down two tonight like he was doing in 2005.

No shit. That last dunk he was 2 foot above the rim.

game kinda sucks when one team has about 85% of its guys shooting cold as week old turds.

Parker better be in the locker room dead if he is missing this. Joseph will be a solid PG in the future, but he is not ready for this right now. He is a little sloppy with the ball and needs to tighten up his crossover. When it switches hands he lets it go too far from his body and it gets popped out almost every time. It's happened like 3 times this game.

Neal is shooting out of his mind.

 

[Awkward]

fuck yes Neal

Gary Neal is unconscious right now.

did someone hit him in the head?
does he have a concussion?

Oh my. It's HOT in SA tonight.

 

[TheVrolok]

Crazy that you can have two games like Game 2 and Game 3 with such different performances by both teams. Tonight SA can do no wrong, and Miami can do no right.

 

[tfinch2]

Goddamnit take Joseph out. Your PG should not turn the ball over when handling it.

FG percentage isn't that off - not the only issue here.

TMAC sighting!

 

[dbk]

wow Green and Neal.. totally overshadowing Mike Miller's performance (why didn't they go to him more?)

I wonder if LBJ is getting dejavu of his CLE days (specifically the 07 finals)?

 

[Awkward]

oh god it just doesn't stop

 

[dbk]

Windmill layup maybe.

Spurs had the nba finals 3pt record with 6min to go in the 4th.

TMAC!

 

[Arkaign]

that is a pretty dumb thing to guarantee after they just got their asses handed to them.

 

[dbk]

Is Parker's hamstring ok? That's pretty scary.. eeeeeeeek

He didn't look to worried to me. Optimal to get the win and not have to push it down the stretch.

Outstanding response by the spurs after getting blown out in game 2. Spurs cleaned up a lot of bad from game 2 and got on a roll and couldn't do much wrong (and miami couldn't do much right.)

Shots will fall a lot differently on thursday, but I loved how the guards rebounded the ball tonight. They completely neutralized haslem's and anderson's affect in the paint.

It's still a very tough road ahead in order to avoid going back to miami.
