ATTENTION: THIS IS A SPECIAL OVERTIME REPORT ON THE EXTINGUISHING OF THE HEAT. LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, THE FIRE HAS BEEN PUT OUT AND HERE ARE YOUR TOP TEN REASONS WHY!
:10—First of all, if you think I am not the “I told you so” kind of guy…somebody told you wrong! I’ve been telling ya since February that The Spurs were on a mission. Yet, just re-read your Couriers. You’ll see it!
:09—The Spurs are the ultimate team…team. Pass the ball quickly to the open man and cut away or go through. Total unselfish behavior.
:08—The main reason the Heat lost is because my dad, Zeke, Myron Brown, Mike Booker, Dwayne Woodruff and Fred Crawford all told me I was crazy and the Spurs couldn’t win. Yep, that’s the main reason.
:07—Spurs are a better conditioned team. They run and pass a team into submission. Even a younger team.
:06—Speaking of the Spurs being older, with age comes wisdom. Understanding how to play the age. Having an ultimate objective. The importance of unity and sacrifice. Many talk it, but not everyone walks it.
:05—Of course the play of Kawhi Leonard, the tournament MVP. He played the so called best player on the planet to a draw. No fear, the ability to score, great defense and crowd pleasing “electrifying stuff” when it was needed!!!
:04—Clearly “Pop” was the better coach and part of the reason for that is because Pat Riley really does all the play calling from behind the scene. So when it’s show time Erik Spoelstra can’t get it done.
:03—“D-Wade” is about done. Great career, three rings and once called “Flash” but the end is near.
:02—The Heat supporting cast…no support at all. (And misplayed I might add!)
:01—The number one reason…LeBron as great as he is just doesn’t have that killer instinct that I’ll do whatever I have to in order to win, even if I have to beat up my own teammates…aka Michael Jordan!
:00—Double Overtime: Some other stuff you gotta know:
The greatest football coach of the greatest team of all time, Chuck Noll, dies at age 82. A great, great, great loss.
