[QUOTE="Narveson, post: 596668, member: 9248"] I've been waiting for the right time to post this. I guess this is it. I was born and raised in San Antonio, Texas. All we have here in this city professionally is an NBA team called the Spurs. Great team. Even greater players and coaches. Most of them previous champions from earlier years. 2013. The Spurs finally climb the mountain of the Western Conference and get back to the NBA Finals after a 6 year absence. As the series progresses, the Spurs set a Finals record for most 3 point shots made and have the defending champions in a elimination game. On the road, up 3 games to 2, with less than a minute to go for the franchise's 5th NBA Championship, this happened. [MEDIA=youtube]O3_Rw3O9u1c[/MEDIA] The Spurs would lose in overtime and the next night, lose Game 7. I was devastated. The Spurs don't lose games like that. Once they have a lead in the waning moments of a game, the experience and teamwork shines through and they pull it out, always. As the devastation subsided, I told friends and family, "Well, they have better rebound and put that loss behind them because if they don't, that loss will haunt this franchise until they win another title and if they don't, it will haunt them forever. 2014. The first day of training camp, Coach Pop sits the entire team down in the film room and makes them watch Game 6 of the previous years NBA Finals in it's entirety. The point was, it wasn't the last minute of Game 6 that cost them the title, it was the entire game. The Spurs used the loss as motivation, finished the season with the NBA's best record and home-court advantage throughout the playoffs. In the playoffs, they once again reached the Western Conference mountaintop and set up a rematch with the 2 time defending champions. This time, the Spurs had the home court advantage. The Spurs left no doubt. They defeated the Miami Heat in 5 games, 4-1, playing some of the greatest basketball I've ever seen and setting an NBA Finals record for margin of victory. [MEDIA=youtube]K0RjRHnrDWE[/MEDIA] My point is the same. If the Packers can't put this behind them, it's going to haunt them until they win a title or forever. It's not Rodgers fault, it's not the defense's fault, it's not Bostick's fault. It was the TEAM'S fault. The Pack can learn a thing or 2 from the Spurs, get over it and come back next year better and stronger than ever. [/QUOTE]
