MIAMI (AP) – Tim Duncan and Manu Ginobili trudged off the court, their heads hanging, revealing the bald spots that come from more than a decade of games like this.
These proud San Antonio Spurs gave it everything they had in Game 7. And when their valiant fight fell just short, they couldn’t stop thinking about the title they gave away two nights earlier.
LeBron James scored 37 points and the Spurs couldn’t quite finish one last stand in a 95-88 loss to the defending champion Miami Heat on Thursday night.
Duncan had 24, 12 rebounds and four steals and Ginobili scored 18 points with five assists. But Tony Parker struggled with just 10 points on 3-for-12 shooting and the Spurs were left lamenting the Game 6 collapse that cost them their fifth title under coach Gregg Popovich.
