Man sometimes sports don't suck.
I am stunned right now.

Re: NBA Thread
I was talking with a friend this afternoon about how basically a chance at NBA immortality was going to fuel Lebron in special ways. I didn't see it as much as I thought I would have but that was one of those moments. That and Irving nutting right in stephs eye for the three were the two clutch crunch time plays that earned it. They just took it.Bammer wrote:Tayshaun Prince blocking a layup attempt by Reggie Miller in the ECF was "The Block"4/5 wrote:Man that block by LeBron, that shot by Kyrie!!!

Re: NBA Thread
Yeah that was awesome, but I think this one on this stage and Cleveland's history of "The" moments, this one might trump it.Bammer wrote:Tayshaun Prince blocking a layup attempt by Reggie Miller in the ECF was "The Block"4/5 wrote:Man that block by LeBron, that shot by Kyrie!!!

Maybe, we'll see. Maybe it was slightly too early in the game.

That block and the dunk attempt were both just great, crazy intense plays.

Wow, Kerr said the best team won the series. I'm kinda surprised he said that.

Re: NBA Thread
My heart was thumping out of my chest for the last minute and I genuinely dislike both teams. It was weird.

Re: NBA Thread
Unreal. Still in shock. Probably won't hit until the morning.
Great game. So tense...I couldn't sit down all night. My wife thought I was crazy.
Very happy for these guys. Love stepped up and came through with some big rebounds and wasn't a dumpster fire on defense. Kyrie...what else can I say. Mr. 4th Quarter did it again.
Really happy for Richard Jefferson finally getting that ring after all those years.
Happy for Mo Williams coming back after the disappointing way his first stint with the team ended.
And of course thrilled for Delly.

you genuinely dislike everything though, so maybe you actually like one of these teams.verb_to_trust wrote:My heart was thumping out of my chest for the last minute and I genuinely dislike both teams. It was weird.
