MIAMI – The Miami Heat knew they could not go to San Antonio down 2-0, and as much as the Spurs wanted Game 2, once it started to get away from them it simply snowballed into a blowout. [Read more…]
Hamilton: No Surprise, Heat Learned From Past To Tie NBA Finals
Manu Ginobili MIAMI — Manu Ginobili walked to the podium and took a look around the room before he sat down. His shoulders slouched a bit, but he tried to remain upbeat. He sighed before he spoke. “After having played a great Game 1, you don’t want to come back and feel like this and perform this like,” he said. “In the second half, they ran us over.” LeBron James—despite a relatively poor showing through the game’s first three quarters—left
Video: Hamilton on Game 2 changes for Heat, Spurs
We know the Miami Heat have to be better in Game 2 of the NBA Finals on Sunday night. But can the San Antonio Spurs be better? The Heat’s issues have been well-documented. LeBron James needs to be more of a scorer. Role players such as Udonis Haslem and Norris Cole have to contribute more than the collective 6-of-15 showing they managed in the opener. [Read more…]
Podcast: Moke Hamilton Calls Out Chris Bosh
LeBron James’s 18 points, 18 rebounds and 10 assists were not enough to defeat the San Antonio Spurs in Game 1 of the 2013 NBA Finals, but can we expect more from? Should be expect more from him? Do the Heat need more from him? Moke Hamilton doesn’t seem to think so. He joined the Fred and Ted Show with Fred David and Ted Johnson on CBS Houston’s 610AM and reflected on Game 1. [Read more…]
Video: LeBron’s Triple-Double Was No Big Deal
MIAMI – Nobody is talking about LeBron James’ triple-double this morning. We have come to expect as much from The King. The question of the day Friday, in the wake of San Antonio’s Game 1 victory in the NBA Finals, is whether we should have expected better from every single member of the Miami Heat in the fourth quarter. When you shoot 5-for-18, that ain’t gonna get it done. When your five field goals are matched by your five turnovers, that ain’t gonna
Hamilton: In Game 1, For Tony Parker, 24 Seconds Was a Lifetime
MIAMI — Time waits for no man … unless you happen to be Tony Parker in Game 1 of the NBA Finals. He held the fate of the league’s two best teams and the collective attention of the basketball universe in his hands. For 23.9 seconds, the Spurs held the ball, ahead by two points. They needed one final basket to steal a Game 1 victory they knew they had come too far to leave Miami without. Parker made a shot for the
Video: Which Role Players Will Play the Biggest Roles?
Shane Battier was benched in Game 7 against the Indiana Pacers. Will he re-emerge as a key component for the Miami Heat, or will his minutes be handed over to Norris Cole — perhaps the only guard on the Miami roster who has the speed to defend Tony Parker end-to-end? And for the San Antonio Spurs, there has been a lot of talk about championship experience. But when you look a little deeper, that argument doesn’t hold water. [Read more…]
Hamilton: Given Opportunity, Chris Copeland Helps Knicks Live To Fight Another Day
NEW YORK — Like ants in a nest, the media scurried around the New York Knicks locker room. Some wanted to speak with Jason Kidd, others were looking for J.R. Smith and Amar’e Stoudemire. To top it all off, Tyson Chandler and Kenyon Martin spoke simultaneously while the press stood on top of one another. Then, abruptly, everyone stopped what they were doing. Chris Copeland—the man who helped put the Knicks over the top in a do-or-die Game 5—was on his way to the podium. The
