After going up up up Leonard came down to Earth exactly in the game that I picked him. <br /><br />And, after game 1 it looked like Spurs in 4 or 5, after the clear win by Miami the Spurs seemed to be in trouble they couldn´t get out of. Them came the even bigger blowout in game 3, everybody planned the party on sunday, next comes game 4, and now the Heat are as good as guaranteed to win the series. I wonder what happens in the pivotal game 5?<br /><br />That was it in 2011. Tied series after 2 games, tied series after 4 games, and whoever wins game 5 will claim the title. Good thing that game is in Texas. But my picks are running dry. I hope Green bounces back once more at home.<br /><br />BTW I now officially throw in the towel in regards of catching you, Taong. I had 19 from Leonard, you got Bosh for 85 (or so it seemed). Now unless you start picking Juwan Howard and Tracy McGrady while Danny Green sinks 12 three-pointers in the next game I am afraid there is no way in heck that I will come even close to you. <br /><br />Next year, my friend, next year...Alex Hergeshttp://www.donald.orgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2794801666266415731.post-87933751746521068472013-06-13T19:22:03.145-07:002013-06-13T19:22:03.145-07:00I hope you did.

If Heat win, then San Antonio will be motivated to win the next game 5, which then you will pick Tim Duncan. If Heat Lose, you can probably go Duncan again game 5. He is more consistent than Wade anyway.<br />If I had your options, I would def go with LeBron, from what he is saying he feels more motivated than ever to come out strong and be aggressive. He knows if they lose this game, most likely series is over.

I still have Wade, LeBron, Duncan, Leonard, and (I'm not really considering him) Gary Neal.<br /><br />Who should I pick? Do I have to pick LeBron or Wade because I can't afford to lose 1 of them? Do I pick Duncan with hopes that he'll get 30+, like you said? Do I pick Leonard because he's trending upwards?<br /><br />Definitely not an easy decision.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09114932735872296815noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2794801666266415731.post-80931406266833019712013-06-12T17:21:26.351-07:002013-06-12T17:21:26.351-07:00You were spot on about DTTF.

In the last two games, a team looked like it wasn't worthy of being there.<br /><br />Leonard is the safe pick.

Meanwhile all those who picked the bigs earlier to get in the Top50 or so are now scrambling for picks. They have to chose players like Green or even Neal... and hit the Jackpot, laughing all the way to the bank. <br /><br />After game 1 I was kind of disappointed with LeBrons points, but overall it was a good game. Bosh in game 2 was better than expected (12-10-4), then he went and did the same thing again in game 3 (10-12-4). Duncan was great in the first three quarters of game 3... and watched the final 12 minutes from the bench. My remaining big name is now injured and questionable for the next match.<br /><br />So, who to pick now? Green? After a career game in game 2 he had an even better game last night. Is he good enough to go 3 for 3? Or will the Heat make sure this doesn´t happen again?<br />Neal? The backup to an inured Parker, who may get a lot of time on the court in game 4 due to TPs hamstring? I don´t think he will come even close to that 31 again.<br />Leonard? He who has the task of the Finals? Covering LeBron? He does a great job, but the Heat just lost, so you can expect James to turn it up a notch or three. This may hurt Leonards productivity PRA-wise.<br /><br />That´s about it. I guess I will go with Leonard and hope he will keep his streak going for one more game. Even though the Heat (= LeBron James) have to bring it because they sure as heck don´t want to go down 1-3 in the series. <br /><br />This next game might even be competitive for more than 24 minutes. Who knows? Let´s go Spurs!Alex Hergeshttp://www.donald.orgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2794801666266415731.post-71989542030366848462013-06-12T08:52:47.752-07:002013-06-12T08:52:47.752-07:00Makes sense.Makes sense.Taong Gagambahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05172021582832968662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2794801666266415731.post-84218949983907161002013-06-12T06:51:31.059-07:002013-06-12T06:51:31.059-07:00Parker is out and Khawi will not score better then...Parker is out and Khawi will not score better then he did in this serie...
