Jeff McDonald

Two missed foul shots and two missed defensive rebounds in final 28.2 seconds cost Spurs a title in regulation.

Jeff McDonald

TP runner no good. We have overtime.

Jeff McDonald

Heat's last two 3-pointers came after offensive rebounds. Just crushing.

Jeff McDonald

Easily a 3-pointer. We have a tie game. Spurs will get last bat with 5.2 seconds to go. Hold on to your freaking hat.

Jeff McDonald

It's going to come down to a review?

Dan McCarney

Allen makes that shot with 5.2 seconds left. Surreal? Ironic? Words are failing me right now.

Jeff McDonald

It will be young Kawhi Leonard to try and seal the game. 19.4 seconds to go.

Dan McCarney

So surreal. Duncan standing on rope to keep fans off the court as he attempts to inbound the ball.

Jeff McDonald

Step 1: Get ball inbounds. Step 2: Hold on to it until you are fouled. Step 3: Make ensuing free throws.

Jeff McDonald

LeBron with the 3, after missing one. Spurs lead down to 94-92. They can win with free throws, but have to make them. 20.1 seconds to go.

Dan McCarney

Miami just imploding. Spurs on 7-0 run, about to add more with FTs.

Jeff McDonald

The next 58 seconds are going to last forever.

Jeff McDonald

Who woke up Tony Parker?

Dan McCarney

Tony Parker, step-back 3. You were expecting something else?

Mike Monroe

Spiurs down to 1 time out

Dan McCarney

Manu giveth, Manu taketh. There is no middle ground.

Jeff McDonald

Getting down to money time here.

Dan McCarney

Don't know how the players handle this. Sweating through my jacket, and I have zero investment in the outcome.

Jeff McDonald

Can't expect Danny Green to make everything. But he had a couple wide-open looks in 4Q that could have changed things. That's hoops.

Jeff McDonald

If the Spurs lose, the story is LeBron's fourth-quarter awakening plus two-thirds of Spurs' Big Three no-showing.

Jeff McDonald

Spurs just having all kinds of problems creating offense right now.

Jeff McDonald

I think if you had offered the Spurs "trail by 2 heading into final 6 minutes" they would have taken it. But not like this.

Mike Monroe

Pop mauy be asking for some nasty

Jeff McDonald

That's a 19-5 run for Miami to take its first lead since the second quarter.

Jeff McDonald

Who woke up LeBron?

Dan McCarney

Time to bring Bobo back to cool LeBron off.

Dan McCarney

Tiago Splitter to the rescue.

Mike Finger

I'd have been more impressed if he'd only been wearing one sock.

Dan McCarney

Gary Neal, ladies and gentleman. He might not have a nose left after Pop is done with him.

Mike Monroe

Pop just ripped Neal for leaving Miller wide open for 3

Jeff McDonald

Good way to blow this is to leave Mike Miller like Danny Green wide open.

Mike Monroe

This is Spurs' title to lose; how long will Pop sit Duncan here at start of 4th?

Dan McCarney

Just cannot see the Spurs letting this one go.

Dan McCarney

Tim Duncan: 30. Miami's Big Three: 34.

Jeff McDonald

In the next 12 minutes, I expect the Heat to come out throwing haymakers. Of course, they should have been doing that the whole time.

Jeff McDonald

Twelve minutes to go. Spurs lead 75-65. Still very much a ballgame.

Dan McCarney

Bobo is sweating gravy right now. Balling so hard.

Jeff McDonald

LeBron got a call. AAA turns into "The Sarcastic Clapping Family."

Dan McCarney

LeBron might never live down not being able to beat Bobo off the dribble.

Dan McCarney

There is a potent, especially pungent blend of frustration and rage brewing at the Triple A.

Jeff McDonald

I could read Ray Allen's lips from up here in the mezzanine. Jesus Shuttlesworth said a bad word at Joey Crawford.

Jeff McDonald

Heat still have that gear in their back pocket. But it's hard for them to reach it when Spurs aren't helping them out with turnovers.

Dan McCarney

Getting Flo Rida's manager kicked out is turning out to be yet another master stroke by Pop. #puppetmaster

Mike Monroe

Big lead of game for Spurs; Duncan 30 and 12 and on way to his 4th MVP if Spurs win

Jeff McDonald

Tim Duncan with 30 points and 12 rebounds in the third quarter of a closeout game of the NBA Finals and it is 2013.

Dan McCarney

Timmy with 30 and 12.

Jeff McDonald

An 11-0 run for Spurs, including three traditional 3-point plays.

Dan McCarney

Again the Heat climbed within one, and again the Spurs are smacking them back. Just like Game 5.

Jeff McDonald

Spo's in the same boat with Wade that Pop has occasionally been in with Manu. Wade clearly killing Heat, but no better options.

Dan McCarney

LeBron only has five dunks in this series, and I'm almost positive none of them have come in the halfcourt. Pretty fantastic D.

Jeff McDonald

Getting waaaaaaaaaaaay too far ahead of ourselves: But if this kind of thing holds up, Duncan's the Finals MVP now, right?

Dan McCarney

Free t-shirts, yo.

Dan McCarney

The Heat at their best swarm with purpose. Just running around aimlessly tonight.

Jeff McDonald

Spurs in bonus for final 5:54 of quarter.

Jeff McDonald

Refs looking at Ginobili's 3 that started the quarter. It looks like a good call.

Mike Monroe

8-2 heat run brings TO from Pop; my guess: corner 3 for Green

Jeff McDonald

Like Leonard's aggressiveness on that drive, but he had The Great Danny Green wide open for 3 before he started dribbling. Rare misstep.

Jeff McDonald

Since Game 1 ... the team that has won the third quarter has won the game. Handily. So, maybe worth watching.

Jeff McDonald

The Spurs maybe had a chance to put their foot on the throat here. Instead, Miami's gonna shoot a ton of free throws.

Jeff McDonald

It's almost like the Spurs are trying to kill a power play here. (I just started watching hockey yesterday)

Jeff McDonald

The Heat being in the bonus for the next 8:33 seems like it could be a problem.

Jeff McDonald

Parker's got nothing on his jumper tonight. I'm sure Miami has noticed.

Jeff McDonald

Wade limps back to court, onto floor.

Dan McCarney

Wade checking in...

Dan McCarney

AAA is screaming for LeBron to attack every time he touches the ball.

Jeff McDonald

Um. No D-Wade to start 3Q?

Mike Finger

This building is approaching Erwinesque levels of deadness.

Jeff McDonald

Halftime. Spurs lead 50-44 and this whole crowd feels like it needs a laxative. Tight, tight, tight.

Dan McCarney

Getting to watch Tim up close has been the most enjoyable part of my first year on this job, by far. Tonight's game is Exhibit A.

Dan McCarney

Timmy's season high is 34. Will almost feel like a letdown if he doesn't get 40. This freaking guy...

Dan McCarney

And this has to be eternally frustrating for the Heat. Lock down the 3-point line, Duncan goes off. Like plugging fingers into a dike.

Dan McCarney

Pretty amazing what Ginobili and Duncan have done these past two games. #throwbacks

Mike Monroe

First 25 pt. Half for Duncan since '07 ... Also last time Spurs won title

Mike Monroe

That Spurs are up at halftime without a point (but 3 turnovers) is astounding

Mike Finger

Generally hate hyperbole, but it's kind of amazing how the next hour might define what people say about LeBron for, like, ever.

Mike Monroe

11-0 run to end half for Spurs, now up 50-44

Jeff McDonald

Spurs close first half on 11-0 run. Heat go into locker room in clang of jumpers, no FGs in final 5:04.

Jeff McDonald

Miami's last FG came at the 5:04 mark.

Dan McCarney

AAA is getting really pissed with all these clanked Js. Frustration is palpable.

Dan McCarney

This is... I don't even... There are no words...

Mike Finger

Boris Diaw is pretty spry for a tubby fella, but it seems like the best player in the world should beat him one-on-one.

Jeff McDonald

There's the hammer play. Turnover.

Dan McCarney

Spurs up to nine TOs. Not so good.

Don Harris

Timmy!!!! 21 points 6 rebounds

Jeff McDonald

I've sort of been waiting for a "let's feature Duncan" game from the Spurs. Heat defensive plan lends itself to that.

Dan McCarney

Tim Duncan has 21 in the first half of a Finals close-out game. At 50.

Jeff McDonald

Tim Duncan has 21 points with 3 1/2 minutes left in the first half.

Dan McCarney

LeBron cannot take Bobo off the dribble. This is amazing.

Jeff McDonald

Just for fun: Tim Duncan's high for points in a Finals close-out game is 31, set in 1999 against the Knicks.

Jeff McDonald

Spurs seem to be responding to Heat covering 3-point line with Duncan wrecking people one-on-one.
