And underneath his Duncan to put it back in two thousand to coaches out of there and there’s the block and Barry comes back the other way now they’ll go Ben Wallace on Ori but then great block by Duncan and Ori responds at the other end hurry and it’s Duncan
Five on the shot clock spins underneath and it’s swatted Away by Ben Wallace again one game for everything 408 to play in the opening quarter Detroit 12’s San Antonio 12. the NBA Finals game seven on ABC And fourth tried to put pressure on the shot here’s Ori over yes for three fight gets it oh bad pass then they throw it away and it’s Barry and it’s locked away as Hamilton saves it back if they couldn’t save the Bulls seconds to play San Antonio will have it
Now this is just a sensational play by Hamilton right there not only that but how about this Number one and number two scorer for their team near turnover but Duncan saves it and scores at Prince behind his back breaks the setup has a three opportunity and catches in the first quarter Crocker from the corner Tony Parker has by Dylan [Applause] Pistons by two
Duncan to tie it up getting good looks Duncan whips another Parker he passes up the three the ferry win launch that Wallace Ben Wallace now you’re absolutely right the priest but Ginobili and Parker only have seven points between up four out of five for the Spurs tonight
One out of seven are the Pistons from three-point land and Ben Wallace gets three inside to top and they lays it off underneath and big Ben is getting free for the oh I’m not really frustrated as long as we continue to stay in the game Lowe’s will give
Ourselves a chance to win the game you know we’ll take it right here if you’re coach Larry Brown what do you tell your team with 24 minutes left in this season um just stay solid you know do what you do 39 and the San Antonio Spurs
38 at the half after the break Mike Tarico Bill Walton Greg Anthony and the Verizon Wireless halftime report the NBA finals on ABC Played by Ben Wallace let’s knock that right to his man oh nice pass by him as well on the other end and Popovich calls it serious trouble and Rasheed Wallace with a little spur here 8 45 remaining in the third quarter and Detroit has stretched its advantage to five in game seven
All right here’s Duncan inside gets it back puts it in and gets fouled and San Antonio won this game not there right here this is where Duncan was a monster in he Inori each have 10 to lead the Spurs it’s an adventure but now how many
Clean block I totally tell you the fox the fox shots at each end Ginobili seven straight points at foul so he comes out and you’ve got mcdice and Rasheed Wallace pretty much sharing a front Court spot as a power forward right now Tim Duncan their leading scorer Duncan
This time he’s got Prince on him and Duncan puts it in and gets fouled small Unit 10 defense but right there Prince had to pick up Duncan and as soon as San Antonio saw it from the line tonight [Applause] is he doing a job stuck in now Tim Duncan thanks one home 53-0 And while it’s fighting Duncan Ginobili drives all the way in to score it was around Ben Wallace who came in and Duncan gets free and off the glass to Prince there it is they work it into the corner from the corner Hunter drops it in with point seven that’s a long time and
A steal and the shot doesn’t go at the end but in game seven final shot of the period tied at the end of three this presentation of the NBA finals on ABC continues after this message in a word from our ABC stations close to post it up Parker
Duncan with a dump in the corner here a beautiful feat Duncan seals off Ben Wallace and there’s Dad on who starts in all the way in that was so clever Ginobili with the dunk now watch the hesitation and then as soon as that Defender gates in an
Alley he’s taking it he’s one of the toughest guys because sometimes he’ll continue two bounces because he might want to take a jump shot pulling that alley opens he explodes eight and a half left fourie from the corner drops it in for three lots of rebounding that’s his fifth of this game
Now Bowen from outside and Bruce Bowen who’s been pretty quiet from his 13th three during this final set now once Duncan saw that double team that ball was going out to Bowen we told you all night Bowen will be open his princess on Timmy Duncan and you also have two on
The shot clock [Applause] Duncan puts it on the floor lays it on the Ginobili with two on the clock huge the game for San Antonio now this is just good basketball Savvy Ginobili takes a double team kick to Duncan and now takes the double team and then make
That diagonal pass once again Ginobili that is his 12-3 throughout this series San Antonio 72 Detroit 65. another huge possession and Phillips with a pull-up to drop and in to make it a four-point game Tim Duncan trying to increase a four-point lead with 62 seconds to play there you go
Chauncey Phillips and he has his blocked way outside by Bowen now is that a block under 40 to play Ginobili and that’s going to make it a three possession game into the corner Wallace bangs at home Rasheed Wallace 75-70 to the foul line for you keep an eye on Bowen see he
Times this perfectly he has a major hike advantage on Phillips and at this end the alley opened up and this is the wrong guy because when Ginobili sees that he’s going it’s a big time pressure shot by Rasheed now going Manu Ginobili makes the first
And the Spurs will be anyway but you get the idea six point lead career free throw shooter [Applause] 21 points here very quietly out with the five rebounds in the four assists he’s done an excellent job especially in the second half that backed up Duncan’s production and Ori has 15 points and
Then Hamilton will go in and get fouled for the game big thing now get out do not assume that there’ll be any kind of a timeout standing up the clock that was the fourth foul on Parker those were Hamilton’s first points of the period the ball was thrown all the way down
Court and Ginobili will pass up what would have been a layup to run out some of the clockless of mine but run around a little bit take a couple of more seconds off he knows he’s going to go to the free-throw line as if they’re making the three possession game at 80-74
It is 81-74. [Applause] and the San Antonio Spurs with tough puss tough defense and Tim Duncan answering a lot of questions and erasing any doubt about coming up big when you have to come up there and for the third time in Seven Seasons the San Antonio Spurs are the NBA champions thank you
[Applause] [Applause] [Applause] [Applause] and Larry Brown rolled apart top eviction Ginobili Tim Duncan Larry looking for Tim Duncan And as the Spurs win their third Championship Jim Duncan is the favorite with the announcement to come in the next few minutes to win his third Finals MVP award well he had a step up big he did right from the get-go he was struggling with his shot but then when
They needed it in the third quarter and the fourth quarter he shot the high percentage the rebounding was there the shots locking and then his decisions on the double team he made the right choices and they followed It Up by making the long three and the Spurs a team a lot of people
Thought wouldn’t have started to play really aggressive and they started to draw a double team thank you and everybody started double team get a job done hero teams were so closely messed I mean you guys especially in the last few games the score papovich has just won his third
NBA title it becomes one of five coaches to win three or more the Larry O’Brien trophy to be presented in the MVP awards when we come back to San Antonio [Applause] it was in the shot clock era in fact we come to San Antonio after this
