What?

 

Cool

 

Yay jinxes

 

BOB NO

 

Hopefully it doesn’t apply to NBA and also he just stated facts so hopefully we avoid it hah

 

I will always regret not driving to Cleveland for game 7 of 2016.

 

Totally missed the wiz getting the coach they were always probably gonna get

 

Being downtown for Game 7 of the finals will always be one of the greatest moments of my lifetime. I was down there from like noon until 4 a.m.

Then driving to the airport the next morning to welcome the team home. That was also nuts.

Both of those moments/events were 10x better than the actual championship parade.

 

Yeah I drove up for parade which was hot and long. But still just fun being in the city. Luckily was at the front and got out of there.

 

parade was pretty cool though

got this funny picture of lebron looking like he’s looking at me like an old friend. i do not believe he was
and also one of him looking like he’s taking a selfie with me (again unlikely)

 

Lebron: We're friends, right? And I’m rich and I have doubles of the barracuda, the roadrunner and the nova

 

Truly is no feeling like your team winning a championship.

 

Keldon Johnson playing like team USA’s best player vs Spain rn

 

Looks like Ricky Rubio is having a nice game for Spain.

 

Lord I’ve seen what you’ve done for others

 

Dude looks like a one of the best players in the world when he wears a Spain jersey lol

 

I'm still on this play. This is maybe the coolest fucking video I've ever seen

 

there is of course, MJ's steal on Malone right before the game winning shot or just before that but are there any other well-known Finals steals? feel like Jrue's may become known, at least in Milwaukee / Wisconsin as "The Steal" if they win the series. Giannis already has his "The Block" so it'd be kind of wild to have two different plays in two different games in this series be memorialized in Bucks lore.

 

Not a finals but the Kawhi steal vs OKC in the 2014 WCF is iconic to me

 

Yes

 

Bird’s steal was the ECF. Gerald Henderson I think had the James Worthy weird pass.

That’s all I can think of in the Finals off the top of my head.

 

Havlicek?

 

As a Cavs fan, I obviously agree that the 2016 NBA Finals were the best of all-time, but outside of Game 7, games 1-6 were absolute blowouts. For the general public, probably not that entertaining or interesting.

Obviously, Game 7 made up for it, but those first six games were not even close.

 

I remember 2016 having a couple of good games sprinkled in outside of game 7. Game 4 or 5 was pretty close until late in the 4th if I recall.
