Fukk your corny debates
Yup. People who don't watch games kept going with these tired old memes...People underestimated the Spurs defense. THAT'S what happened and now it's FINALLY coming to light that we can play great defense outside of Kawhi Leonard.
The Heat have YET to break 100 against the Spurs
"The Spurs aren't a great defensive team."
"The Spurs are old."
"Tony Parker is just a system PG."
"They're not athletic enough."
I saw a dude say Miami is a far better defensive team before the series started. Even yesterday before the game, I saw someone say their defense isn't good and they're going to be the worst defensive team to win it all in a while.
Even if you don't watch games you can at least read team defensive stats so you don't come off so grossly uninformed. The Spurs have a beastly perimeter pressure defense combo with Leonard and Green (though Green finds himself out of place at times) and Duncan and Splitter protect the paint well. Diaw plays good D too. And the team plays with good defensive discipline.
