Poor Cavs...

they out-rebounded the Spurs, had more assists, more blocks, fewer turnovers, hit more free throws (on fewer attempts), took 9 more shots and had one more basket than the Spurs...

they even kept Manu Ginobili without a single basket (and only 3 free throws, all in the last 10 seconds of the game... he had 25 in Game 2, and averaged over 20 pts for the past 11 playoff games)...

and yet somehow they still lost. Ouch.

I hope they at least win Game 4, just to avoid the sweep. The Spurs teammates’ thuggish tactics really turned me away from being a Tim Duncan fan anymore.

For big Z to have 14 or more rebounds and the Cavs to still lose is just amazing, and not in a good way.

please describe for me

I'm really quite sorry to hear that. For many years now, I...we have thought of the Spurs as the team of gentlemen.

I can't believe they won last night's game either. The Spurs seem to play as a team. When their "stars" have a bad night the others always "step-up".

"The Spurs teammates’ thuggish tactics really turned me away from being a Tim Duncan fan anymore."

I keep hearing that. Can you please elaborate. I've also been told I should not support such a 'globalist' team. I must have missed something.



Go Spurs!
