Game 7: The Spurs

Continuing with the Game 7 series we move on to the most experienced team in the NBA, the San Antonio Spurs. If the Spurs win or loose Game 7 the future of their own "big 3 " will come into question. The Spurs' big 3 is a group of older gentlemen who have won 4 championships together don't have much longer in the NBA. Manu Ginobli's production has taken a major drop this season and Tony Parker has frequently tweeted about how "tired, or "sore" he is as well as both of their frequent injuries during the regular season. The only person who hasn't complained or showed much of a decline in production is Tim Duncan. If the Spurs lose this game, a lot of pressure will be on the big 3 , Ginobli especially, to retire. Many people will go back to Game 6 when Kawhi Leonard missed a Crucial free throw that probably would have sealed the Spurs' win and then proceed to blame the loss on the young Spurs' star.  However, if the Spurs' win nobody will care. Like I said earlier all the focus will go to the Heat. The game will most likely be blamed on the lack of Lebron's dominance, or how ineffective Chris Bosh and Dwayne Wade were. Even if the Spurs win the media will ask: " Can they do it again?" The Spurs organization has relied on Greg Popovich and his big 3 to remain a threat for a championship for almost 15 years now, and you can tell that this could be their last shot at a title. The Spurs simply are running out of gas, the Spurs' big 3 had to sit out games during the season to rest, and  the entire big 3 has faced multiple injuries this season.  The Spurs do have some young talent behind  their big 3 in Kawhi Leonard and Danny Green, but, other than that this team is riddled with role- playing veterans( Boris Diaw, Patty Mills,  Tracy McGrady, and Gary Neal). If the Big 3's production continues to drop this will be their last chance to win a championship for a few years.
