Bill Simmons is right: Spurs were one rebound away from winning the title.
Are there really any Spurs fans who defend Poppovich's decision to bench Tim Duncan when all they needed was to grab one rebound and would have won?

Pop is known to be an awful coach, how can anyone defend him?

It was a bad decision, but no way he expected Ray Allen to hit that shut coupled with LeBron going off to that extent in G7.
I blame Parker and Ginobili, though Green (and to a lesser extent Neal) couldn't keep up that pace for a 7 game series.
Nothing against LeBron, but I wanted Timmy to win #5 (was a lock for FMVP too).

As usual, Simmons is on the cutting edge with his analysis of the game.
What a smug prick he has become.

Simmons picked the wrong day to go in on Ricky Rubio.

Bill Simmons is like nails on a chalk board.
Did he EVER pick the Spurs to win last year? Now they were just one rebound away? Revisionist hack.
Simmons, Bayless, and Smith ... damn I hate ABC/ESPN.
Give me TNT and Shaqtin-a-fool any day of the week.

No one was a lock. They had 4 guys who had a good/great case for FMVP(Parker, Duncan, Green, Leonard). I think it would've gone to Parker, but it was really a toss up had they won.

If they won in game 6, Parker would have been a lock.
If they won in game 7, Duncan would have been a lock.

Thing is though, Timmy was the key to their defense on LeBron (obviously Kawhi and Pop get some credit) by shutting down the paint to prevent the drive, and he had that monster first half in G6. I can't see Parker winning it since it was close before then.

I agree that Duncan would have deserved it, but all of the FMVP talk was going to Parker, and even Green, before Duncan
