NBA Finals 2014: Spurs vs. Heat vol. 2

[shadowgrin]

LeBron James is salty.

[NovU]

The Heat could have taken game 1. They were so so close. LBJ's cramping screwed it all up. Damn... I have a feeling this will haunt.

[Sauru]

the pacers won game 1, how did that turn out for them?

[Kevin]

Bobcats didnt win game 1, how did that turn out for them?

[_Steve_]

I don't think the loss was all on LeBron. Heat got the big 2 1/2 plus Ray Allen produce on a fair level, which didn't happen that often during this year's playoffs. It's the production of the rest of the team that concerns me.

[Stress Fracture]

Allen started to miss open shots in the 2nd half.

[Kevin]

Gatorade apologizes over LeBron-related tweets

"Our apologies for our response to fans' tweets during (Thursday) night's Heat vs. Spurs game," Gatorade said in a release. "We got caught up in the heat of the battle. As a longtime partner of the Miami Heat, we support the entire team."

[bowdown]

Fuck off Gatorade.

BTW you think that social media representative is fired or something?

I don't understand talking shit by such a well established business or organization.

I don't understand talking shit by such a well established business or organization.

The perils of entrusting a company's social media accounts to an employee who isn't cut out to speak for the brand in a professional manner. With the popularity of social media, we're seeing more and more of these gaffes...Cracked had an article on some of the more hilarious/embarrassing ones a while back.

[NovU]

There is no such a thing as bad publicity. Bad publicity is good publicity.

[shadowgrin]

You already answered it yourself.
A well established business or organization can talk shite because they are already established and can withstand the backlash as a result of talking shite.

[shadowgrin]

Tim Duncan is srs bizniz in the game with those two dunks.

[Patr1ck]

LOL at Timmy jumping out the way while "trying to block" Lebron's dunk in the 1st.

[Jackal]

The refs aren't letting SA breathe on Miami without calling a foul.

[NovU]

Nice flop by Wade. That was fine worthy.

This Heat team is totally disastrous against the Spurs without LBJ on the floor.

[shadowgrin]

Nice to see the refs doing hard work in helping the Heat avoid a 0-2 series deficit.

[Andrew]

I'm not sure which is more disgraceful: that flop, or the fact that the referee fell for it despite being right there to see what happened. Granted, it's easier for us to point these things out with the benefit of replay angles and slow motion but still...sheesh.

Officiating aside, we're getting a competitive game. Nice ball movement by both teams, even if some of the shots aren't falling. With LeBron's aggressiveness so far, I see the Heat pulling away in the second half though, much as they were on the verge of doing before LeBron had to leave Game 1.

[Lean]

That Wade flop.

[Patr1ck]

Smart move by Wade on that flop. Got Ginobilli out the game for the half. That's worth the fine.

[Jackal]

They are ruining the game with these horrid calls.

[NovU]

I see the Heat pulling away in the second half though,

I don't know about that. I was hoping someone else taking over the first half so LBJ could have fresh legs for second half. I think this will be a competitive game throughout. The Spurs got too much depth. And that Boris Diaw...

[Andrew]

That loose ball foul on Leonard after he was clearly fouled on the runner was terrible. The foul on LeBron that led to his technical was an awful call too, but kind of makes up for the similarly bad non-call and technical that Duncan was hit for earlier in the game.

Also, someone please hire Mark Jackson to coach their team.

Wait for it, it's coming.

Hope you're right. I'm gonna turn off the TV unless the Heat turn this around soon.

[NovU]

Time has come! I love you ANDREW!
