It has been odd. Neither team has won 2 in a row, yet every game except 1 has been won decidedly by each team.

I think that's good coaching.

I hope the Heat shoot their load early in game 6 so the veteran team can clean them out and win the title.

There's no way the Heat can possibly be considered one of the elite teams in NBA history if a team holds the trophy on their court AGAIN.

KCStud's heat hate borders on unhealthy.

No I just like seeing teams win it the right way.

So, are you denying that you hate them or explaining why you hate them? It seems more like the latter.

The "right" way. WTF does that mean? Why is being ****ty and lucking your way into a draft pick the "right" way. Sports "morality" always confounds me.

Perhaps he's referring to something as basic as not tampering.

What? RC Buford and Presti drafted pretty dam good for the spurs. Was not about just one pick over the last decade and change for the spurs.

Who knows. Though if the Spurs win, I look forward to his virtual chest puff like he knew it would happen the entire time.

You're missing my point. Thats an impressive way, but why is it the "right way?"

I guess some people think stacking big name FAs is buying a ring. This arguement gets magnified I think in basketball/baseball more so than football. It's why the Yankees have been hated for the same reasons. Personally I never thought bosh was a superstar so its hard to say they were stacking like Boston did. Or whoever lands Paul/Howard

cause they didn't plan out a FA where they essentially held the entire league hostage so they could play together.
the Heat built their team in a douche way and they act like drama queens every damn game they don't get calls.

The Yankees hate I can agree with more because of the lack of salary cap. And while some NBA teams are cash strapped a little (because of the luxury tax), its a pretty level playing field.

Seems like their way was also the "right way" three straight finals! I'm not even a heat fan, i dont know why i spend time defending them here.

Ya it makes it a bit tougher to land several FAs at once. After next year it's gonna be a large FA market and will be interested in how teams approach it

ludo21 · 06-17-2013, 04:46 PM

the right way is to make the playoffs then win 16 games.

KCStud · 06-17-2013, 05:44 PM

The right way is the Spurs way. They draft their own talent. They do it the right way.

I hate seeing teams win Championships by buying them.

God what an arrogant POS.

God, people take one quote that he said in a fun moment to rile up a crowd and hold it as some sort of gospel. Get over it. And of course he's arrogant. He's a ****in superstar, you have to be

And your "right way" comment is still bull****.

they take it that way because all of them admitted that they felt that way and thought it would happen.
