Yeah, didn't think it was possible, but I think LeBron and Wade are tired. They're certainly not running at 100% physically or mentally.

Excuses, excuses, excuses! When this series started the Heat were heavy favorites to repeat and the Spurs too old to compete! Everybody and their grandmother picked the Heat to dominate with overwhelming athletic ability against the slow footed, under manned, old school geezers from Texas! The Spurs won the first game, fair and square......only 4 turnovers and excellent ball movement and defense took care of all that athletic ability of the Heat! Spurs got blowed out in the second game, but came home to return the favor with interest! The Heat haven't "evolved"! They've just reverted back to hopper ball and on the road that ain't gonna cut it against the smarter, equally as talented Spurs! With the next two games still in San Antonio, I don't think the Heat can beat them again, with or without Parker! The Spurs are not a one man show! Team ball can be utilized to beat the Heat no matter what parts are substituted! Unless the Spurs get completely hosed by the refs in game 5......I certainly like this series to end in 5 games!
 
Love basketball, but the NBA makes it so hard to follow the NBA.

Heat down 2 games to 1 and the refs are calling touch fouls against the spurs. Fouls that could be called on every team in every game of the season.

So predictable.
 
Its turning out to be a pretty good series I think. Sure, the refs can have an impact, but the players still have to makes shots and make plays.

I also don't buy into the conspiracy theories. I think the reffing is just naturally flawed.

yah, looked like the refs didn't want a 5 game series.
hopefully they call straight the rest of the way.
 
Spurs showed up in tuxedos tonight. The refs weren't the cause for the Spurs sloppy ball handling, jazz like defense, and bad rebounding effort. Spurs showed up like the warriors, chucking 3s and no defense and the heat showed up like the spurs, awesome defense, great hustle, inside out on offense.

Game 5 is a must win for the spurs. Otherwise, Miami will have this thing wrapped up.

For the life of me I don't understand why they don't try and get Duncan more touches. And Manu has really showed his age. He isn't even a shadow of his former self.
 
It's pretty simple. Whoever wins the rebounding and turnover battle wins this series. When the Spurs use their rebounding and aggressiveness to spark their 3 pt shooting, they win. When they turn into the warriors or jazz and just chuck away, they lose. It's sort of weird to see the Spurs just chuck away. I never thought I'd see a pop coached team play so loose and up tempo.
 
Disappointing performance from the Spurs tonight. They had a chance to take control of the series. Now they face a "must game" and still would need to win one more in Miami. Difficult task.

Yeah, if Miami loses game 5 they could still win the series since game 6 and 7 are in Miami. But if the Spurs go down 3-2 with the final two games on the road, it's game over.
 
FT's don't tell the whole story about how a game was reffed, but when you take almost twice as many FT's as your opponent, I think it's a little silly to start making conspiracy theories.
 
Huh?! Fouls and free throws didnt decide this game. The refs did fine. The spurs did not.

Turnovers and rebounds decided this game.
