Spurs lose by 1 on a tip in with 2.1 seconds after leading by 29 points

Biggest comeback in nba finals history

I thought Fox was good, but he made 4 unforced turnovers and a HUGE mistake with 5 seconds left

Hate to blame one player on a loss but a vet shouldn't make the type of mistakes he made in 4th quarter

No one knows hoop like the schizos on the OT Board

I watched most of the game but missed a lot of minutes here and there, so small sample size...

Often when I was tuned in, Wemby was taking and (usually) missing 3-pt shots, usually fairly early in the clock. I know he's a decent shooter, especially for a guy that size, but it seemed like he and the Spurs were too nonchalant with that lead. Of course, if only one more of those had gone in, I wouldn't be posting this right now.

Lots of what ifs in any 1-point win, let alone a 29-point comeback.

Knicks coach >>>>> Spurs Coach (a former Stanford player)

With better coaching and strategy, I think the Spurs would be in command of this series. Charles Barkley was all over how dumb their strategy was with a 25-point lead, rushing their possessions and taking 8 straight three-point attempts, with little success. Barkley pointed out that a team doesn't make a comeback like that without help from the other team, and the Spurs aided the comeback by playing dumb. Barkley also criticized the Spurs in game 2 for not taking a shot in the closing seconds with enough time on the clock for a putback when the shot missed - saying that, by contrast, the Knicks executed that perfectly in the closing seconds of game 4.

Wasn't just Wemby, it was a lot of the Spurs chucking threes with a big lead.

yeah, this was kindling for the knicks as they were trying to spark some belief... i still cant believe there wasn't a moment of reset for their process in halfcourt

the harper one was late shot clock but all the rest were bad https://t.co/MvhaYc6FFj pic.twitter.com/rv5orIIWPR

Well, this is an NBA thread:

"The Lakers are signing star guard Austin Reaves to a four year, $185 million max contract, the richest for an undrafted player in NBA history. Reaves, 28, has averaged 21.5 points, 4.6 rebounds and 5.7 assists across his last two seasons in L.A."
