They let the spurs win out of greed and pity.

not picking a fight with you personally jon, but this idea of "politics" in sports is total BS. do you honesty think that these guys want to lose? no compeditor in their right mind will intentionally lose just to make their rich team owner more money. These players are not losing on purpose, and no team ever does.

what happens when u lose: lets look at dallas for example; one of the greatest teams in a while.. to not win a championship. they lose and what happens, bye bye coach. trades are made, the team slowly dies.

the hornets are just getting outplayed right now, not throwing the games..sorry for the soap box i just hate that argument.

well um let's think about this for a second.... People want to play in the NBA for what? Money right these fools are all millionaires. So if I wanted to get paid even more I would do it just like they do it in the real world. If your boss' pockets are fatter than usual then more than likely you will gain from it. If you're not keeping your boss overflowing with loot then you're probably not going to see that bonus. Think about it.

GO SPURS GO they just might win this in 6 and the mighty lakers are also 2-2 this is getting interesting. I would like to see a lakers spurs match and the spurs can take it. IMO spurs are the best team n the nba not lakers or celtics they maybe old but wiser with timmy, manu, and parker and pop drive for five. GO SPURS GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
and to all you spurs haters.

[thunderchicken]

Well it took them 2 games,but it looks like the spurs has them figured out...so lets see what happens in the rest of the series.......

well think about this....they're millinonaires....They got money they ain't got a championship. I think I'd rather just win. Most of these guys want to win since they are already gettin paid.

Yeah I think the Spurs might have figured out the Hornets game and this might actually be a series . I think the Spurs lose game 5 and come back to win 6 & 7 . I think the Hornets are going to come out in game 5 to prove a point to their coach that they are not a bunch of bitches . It should be a tight series either way .

[SUfanINsa]

i honestly think the spurs win 5 and 6, I dont think they can let NO get any kind of confidence, if they do chances of them winning go down drastically

[thunderchicken]

A bunch Of bitches...lmao

Now they're not ALL millionaires but hell even league minimum is still a DAMN good paycheck to most of us.
Players want to win PERIOD.

I remember last finals when Reggie Miller was asked about all the great years he had and he said something to the effect of "even hall of famers feel like a failure without a championship"


(not jumpin on anybody just makin some points)
That being said

GO SPURS GO

If we take game 5 , its over for them . If they take game 5 , it could go either way .

Well i guess they didn't have it all figured out,also since they didn't take thier time again,and went to making mistakes again,and was afraid to drive in. So they come out with another loss. Exactly like games 1&2...So now i guess it could go either way.....wouldn't it be so sweet if they do end up taking game 6&7,also since the hornets have not lost a playoff home game this year? Even though they did have a chance to cut to 8...but oh well......

another frustrating game. we looked good in the 2nd, just to have it dwindle down. came out in the 3rd and played like ass. like the rest of the games, 3rd quarter decieded the outcome. i cant believe everytime we lose in NO, its right there at 20 points. WTF?

The way that it looks to me,is that once one makes a mistake,it throws off all thier confidence....the way they all work as a team,when one messes up,they all mess up...thats just what it looks like to me.....

[ChrisGT2000]

The NBA is just trying to make more money they want them to go to game 7 and this shit is frustrating we beat them by 20 and things look good and dejavu over in NO WTF.

[thunderchicken]

I guess anythings possible.....

[thesource]

Its going to go 7 games and I think the Spurs just might take them but its going to be a nail biter for sure .

[thunderchicken]

I'm running out of fingers.....
