Umm... the series isn't over.
Jackson missing that runner was huge. Forced a three pointer to be taken at the end.

Well, Manu played a hell of a game, and played a bad possession there at the end. He's gotta come get that ball early and drive to the basket.
He was running through screens and was blanketed. That's the Thunder's number 1 thing to defend. The only hot guy.
It ain't a series until home team loses. Let's see if SA can respond.
Yeah, Jackson did a good job there but settled a couple feet earlier than he should have. Should have drove it all the way in.
That interview makes it hard for me to have irrational hatred for Harden. Pretty classy...or does it make it more irrational?

Wouldn't call the series over. But Spurs really need to put together 4 full quarters on Wednesday. Something they haven't done all series.
I don't think anyone wins in OKC this year. They have a great home court advantage.

THIS.
Marv Albert with a sly gambling reference there
EDIT maybe I missed your point. I think I get it now.

Every longtime Spurs fan knows it's over. I'm not hedging. I know this franchise. We just don't have it anymore.
Ummmm. Yea it'll be very tough to win there. But it can be done.
would have been nice if Duncan was allowed to play- the game changed when he was in-
pretty ****ty calls on a Hall of Fame player at home
Game 6 is going to either be a TD showcase or bust

Yes. That's why SA needs to respond.

this makes no sense
As long as someone lays out D wayne wade, I'm good.
It was good defense from Thunder on last possession. But Pop has to do better.
No problem with Manu being the focus. Thunder knew it and so does everybody in the building.
You can't have Duncan setting screens outside three point line. Nobody is going to honor that. Thunder are happy to have Duncan shooting from 25ft to tie the game. Plus he isn't a ball handler. The pressure causes him to pass hot potato to Manu.

You know it was a good basketball game when your team won and you still feel like you just got mugged in an alley.
You are kidding yourself if you don't think this is over. You can see it on the Spurs faces.
No way they are going up to OKC and winning the way these two teams are playing. That arena will be bonkers from tip to finish, knowing they can celebrate a conference championship and trip to the finals that night. Their players are playing smart and clutch now.
I doubt it will make much of a difference in the game because the Spurs have already quit, but the Thunder will get some good home cooking with Stern salivating at an OKC - Miami finals.
If the Spurs were showing any semblance of life, I might think they can overcome it. But they aren't. They are as dead as Tim Duncan's stone cold expression.

If Duncan received the ball squared up and ready...

But Duncan would have had a worse look than Ginobili had he pulled the trigger. I'm happy to let Manu take that.

Yep, Spurs are running on 4 flat tires and the road spikes are out. OKC will be ready for the close-out game.
OKC are just the better team. They've had answers for all of the Spurs runs, while the Spurs were the rattled team. This was the Spurs' chance to get one more this era, and they blew it horribly. Credit the Thunder for their play, but the Spurs flat out choked.
I disagree. Spurs had 2 huge comebacks in the half.
Sure it isn't likely they pull this out, but to say its over is a little premature.

This. I hope I'm wrong, but it's going to take a lot to win in OKC with this at stake.

Spurs lost this one in the last 2-3 min of the third... I can't believe they let that happen
Honest question - When is the last time this happened?
1). Higher seeded team wins first two games.
2). Lower seeded team wins next 3 games.
3). Higher seeded team then wins the next 2 to take the series.
Oh and NBA Finals don't count, given the format.

The Spurs will not go down easy. If they can pull out of OKC with a win, I think they have a shot with Game 7 in SA. Tim Duncan is the key. I don't really care much about basketball, but Tim Duncan is one of my favorite athletes simply in the way he carries himself. A very unselfish, player that will go down as one of the greats. I think he will shine in game 6 win or lose.
The Spurs have completely abandoned their 2011-2012 offense since game 2.
They've resorted to Ginobili and Duncan hero ball. And it ain't 2005 anymore, so that doesn't work so well.

Charles and Kenny sound so depressed
Spurs won game 6 in Dallas to force game 7 in 2006
Spurs finally have their backs against the wall will be a good game 6! Spurs by 7
As dumb as it may sound, Spurs have to just focus up and play a little more loose. Do what worked all season. Move the ball more and involve everyone.
This series is still winnable, but we need to win in OKC first.

Ugh that series ended well for the Spurs
Shaq with a weak half-assed calling out of Duncan not taking over more
