Heat/Spurs NBA finals.
I hope this happens this season. I wanted it to happen last season but the Spurs disappeared against the Thunder in the WCF. I don't see that happening this season. Duncan is playing great, Parker was playing great before the ankle injury, the young guys on the Spurs have stepped up. I really think and hope we get a Spurs/Heat finals and I want the Spurs to win and Duncan to get his 5th title. It's crazy. I used to despise the Spurs. I found them incredibly boring. But this team the past 2 seasons is the complete opposite of boring. They've completely changed the way they've played and it's so fun to watch. Parker is very exciting to watch. It's amazing what Duncan is able to do at this stage of his career. The guy is playing like he's 30 years old again.

Re: Heat/Spurs NBA finals.
Spurs would win too.
Except the Spurs won't get past the Thunder.
And the Thunder aren't beating the Heat. So blame OKC after the Heat repeat this year.

IT would be reversed when a young Lebron PLayed Duncan early in his career a Duncan and Company were in their Prime Easily Beating the Cavs. This time The Heat would do same to Spurs.

When's the last time both #1 seeds went to the Finals, and how often does it happen?

Re: Heat/Spurs NBA finals.
I think the Spurs could take the Heat in a 7 game series. The Spurs are too deep and better up front than the Heat.

Re: Heat/Spurs NBA finals.
Heat in 5. The Heat are just as well coached, but with better overall talent.

Honestly I could see that happening too and for the same reasons. The Spurs just know how to outlast a team in a 7 game series and I don't think it would be Miami choking as much as it would just be the more experienced and polished Spurs ultimately coming away with it.
I just don't think the Spurs will reach the finals

Re: Heat/Spurs NBA finals.
How could you find the Spurs boring? Even in their defensive days, they often ran up and down and played games in the 120's with the Suns, Mavericks, and Warriors. I'm sorry you don't know anything about basketball.
In any case, Manu and Parker are two of the most exciting players in the past 10 years. Manu with his passes... dunks... circus shots/layups... defensive prowess.. And Parker will his ability to get into the paint and finish over bigger defenders. And if you can't appreciate good defense and fundamental basketball...

Cmon man, Spo is underrated but not way is he in Pop's league. That's just a fact. What Pop is doing with bunch of old stars and no name role players is amazing, Spo has his defense, but the offense basically relies on Lebron more than anything.
You give Pop Lebron, Wade, Bosh, Ray Allen, Battier and he will turn that into a dynasty.

Spo has that very team looking quite dynasty-esque himself. Not to mention a 27 game winning streak, which is quite the coaching feat.

He also had them looking very anti-dynasty-esque in 2011 Finals. :oldlol:
Spo has come a long way, but lets not act as if he had any other superstar instead of Lebron he could pull this off. James gives him the luxury of having a PG, Swingman and Power Forward on the court at the same time, who plays on both ends and covers up lot of holes.

Re: Heat/Spurs NBA finals.
Would love to see Spurs vs Heat:cheers: I think the Spurs would take it also, plus I dont see OKC beating them this year without Harden..
Would be happy to see Heat vs Spurs/Grizz/Nuggets/Clippers...
OKC would get raped and Lakers will be lucky to even make the 8 seed unfortunately:facepalm
Im still hoping the Knicks make it out the east though!:rockon:

It doesn't happen often because of the Conference Finals. I read somewhere that teams with homecourt only win the conference finals 50% of the time.

I just don't see OKC beating SA this year, no matter how much bullshit reffing is involved. They got significantly worse, and SA is better.

Right?

Re: Heat/Spurs NBA finals.
Lol at the Heats bus driving wannabe coach being near Pops level.
Spo isn't even a real coach lol.
-
Re: Heat/Spurs NBA finals.
I think this is the most probable matchup. Don't see OKC beating SA in a 7 game series this year unless the refs intervene.
Spurs will give the Heat their biggest fight, but I think LeBron and company will just be too much....LeBron gets his revenge in 6.

after the way Spurs lost in the playoffs over the last few years, I have less faith in Pops.
