Check out ESPN Classic

[E20]

Non-stop Playoff games from the the 1970's to the present until 6:00AM. I'm in heaven :smchode:

[ShoogarBear]

Is there a schedule?

[E20]

Is there a schedule?
None that I know off, but at 7:00 PM EST and 9:00 PM EST they're showing Bull vs Celtics(Jordan goes for over 60 points) and then Bulls vs Cavaliers(Jordans game winner). I just finished watching the 1983 Sixers vs Knicks WCSF matchup and the 1984 Pistons vs Knicks 1st round matchup.

[CubanMustGo]

Ack. If they show Game 7 of the '79 EC Finals, you don't want to watch it. Trust me on this.

[E20]

Moses Malone was a sav, I won't lie. Averaging 32 and 16 is :smokin

[E20]

They're showing Lakers vs Spurs WCF Game 6 1983 West Finals.

It sucks that I won't be able to see any Drexler, but I'm seeing Hakeem, Jordan, Robinson, Erving, Bird, Malone, etc etc...

[ShoogarBear]

Ack. Figures the only Spurs game on the list is a painful loss from the old days.

[Darrin]

I'm watching Pistons-Knicks right now. 16 points in 94 seconds, baby! (I'll ignore the fact the Pistons lost).

[ShoogarBear]

^That was sweet, Zeke.

[Brutalis]

I don't think classic is on regular cable anymore or is it?

[boutons_]

"painful loss from the old days"

and not so old. Sat is 2003 Game1 Suns@Spurs. :lol

The two games respenting the Pistons are game five of the Knicks-Pistons, which they lost, and Game five of the Celtics-Pistons, which they lost on the "steal by Bird." All they need to do is show game 4 of the 1991 Conference Finals and game 6 of the 1988 NBA Finals, and they will have shown every bad moment from the Bad Boys era.

I was in San Diego that night. I was watching TV at the Armed Forces YMCA and that stupid Ted Leitner had to announce the score before they aired the game on tape delay (came on at 11:30 PST) And I went to Game 5 at the Forum a few nights before. :depressed

[E20]

I stayed up to watch the 1986 Housten vs Lakers WCF game. Off da hook 360 degrees mainy ass cool. Sampson and Hakeem were monsters. Two fights broke out at that game, topped of by an unbelievable game winner.

I remember watching that game on Kens after the news, I was 14 years old back then and when the fight broke out that was awesome. I recorded that game thinking I was going to fall asleep, and I still have that tape.

It is funny to watch some great classic commericals like the old Miller lite commericals, less filling-taste great was funny.

I love how Hakeem and Kutchpak started to fight, if it weren't for that ref tackling Hakeem, Mitch would've died. And LMAO Hakeem and Kareem headlocking Sampson so he wouldn't get ejected. :lol

[Darrin]

Gm 4 1993 Playoffs! Hornets And Celtics! Kevin Mchale's Last Game And The Biggest Shot Of Alonzo Mourning's Career!

[Spurminator]

topped of by an unbelievable game winner.

Luckiest game-winning shot in postseason history until 0.4...

[ShoogarBear]

Luckiest game-winning shot in postseason history until 0.4...

And the ugliest by far.

[baseline bum]

That game was one of my earliest playoff memories. I love in the replay of Sampson's shot you see this one Laker fan get up with his hands on his head and scream as Sampson eliminates his Lakers in an absolutely shocking series.

Don't hate appreciate. The Rockets already had the Lakers anyway up 3-1, if not Game 5 then Game 6 and Hakeem got ejected and nearly Sampson as well, but the f'ing Celts had to win that year.

They just finished showing Game 3 of the Wolves vs Lakers 2003 First Round. Pretty intense game. It looks nasty to see Horry in a yellow uniform and Rasho in a green uniform. Now they're showing 1993 Hornets vs Celtics 1st round matchup. Basketball is so fun to watch.

[Fabbs]

1984 Celts over Lakers Game 7.
Cornbread Maxwell game MVP. Also guarding Magic often during game including in a full court press and talking trash to his pampered ass the whole time.

Priceless :spin

[E20]

They had a small segment showing Greatest Buzzer beaters. I was watching players beat 0.1, 0.2, 0.2, 0.5 seconds. But they failed to show Fishes 0.4. :lol

[ShoogarBear]

Actually the 83 Spurs-Lakers Game 6 of the WCF is a good one, too, despite the outcome. Haven't decided yet if I can bring myself to watch it.

If you haven't seen Gervin, Johnny Moore, Mike Mitchell, or Artis Gilmore in action before, I highly recommend it.

[Darrin]

I saw that too, and I didn't see anything from 2000 on. Some of these games are pretty old in terms of when ESPN Classic bought the rights to them. That set, part of the ESPN studio sets for Sportscenter back in the day, doesn't exist anymore.

0.1? What game was that?

The latest I saw was 1997, one by John Stockton against the Rockets and another by a Rocket, I forgot who, against the Jazz.

Actually the 93 Spurs-Lakers Game 6 of the WCF is a good one, too, despite the outcome. Haven't decided yet if I can bring myself to watch it.
I really wanna see these guys play.

[E20]

0.1? What game was that?
It was the Hornets against a team wearing green jerseys. It was off an inbounds play, they alleyed it to the guy and it was a touch basket to the rim. There were some really crazy ones.

[Darrin]

Eddie Johnson. That was Game 4 of the 1997 Conference Finals. I wouldn't know that but NBA TV just showed that game last week.

[Darrin]

I forgot how much I loved the 1993 Charlotte Hornets team. Dell Curry was automatic, Bogues could penetrate on anyone, LJ and Zo were huge, Kenny Gattison, Kendall Gill was their one-on-one threat...Too bad they never accomplished anything because the team went down the drain over contract issues of all things.

[Duff McCartney]

Watching the upset special...Denver vs Seattle Round 1 1994 Game 5. Still can't believe that Seattle got upset by Denver. Crazy shit.

[Tek_XX]

I wish they'd show some spurs games

[E20]

I wish they'd show some spurs games
At 1:00 AM Eastern Time, they're gonna show 1983 Lakers vs Spurs WCF Matchup.

[Tek_XX]

woah that's way back

[missmyzte]

I couldn't sleep last night and stumbled upon this, it was fun to watch. Currently watching 1994 Nuggets/Sonics Game 5 as well.

[E20]

It's suprising how old Doug Collins and Marv Alberts really are.

[A-Train]

'83 WCF Game Six is on now. Man, if only Rasho could play like Artis.

[Tek_XX]

Our team has gotten considerably whiter

[A-Train]

We need a game blog. I'm getting into this.

[Tek_XX]

who won this game?

[A-Train]

Man, I fucking hate the Lakers.

[Obstructed_View]

who won this game?
:lol I was watching the Hornets and the Celtics today and the Hornets were up by 20 in the fourth quarter. It took me a while to figure out which game it was, but I knew the Celtics were going to come back.

[A-Train]

Ah yes, 1983, back when San Antonio got an erection over being named an "All America City"...

[A-Train]

Also back when most San Antonio residents would've given their first-born for a NBA title.

[Tek_XX]

What were ya'll doing in 1983? i was 4 and could care less that SA was named in All America City

[A-Train]

Dick Stockton courtside. Some things never change.

[A-Train]

I will say that red and white would've been preferable to pink and turquoise or whatever.

[A-Train]

Dunleavy at the line shooting 2.

[Tek_XX]

Maybe it's just the audio but the SA crowd seemed more lively 23 years ago

[Tek_XX]

And this game was not live, that's very weak.

[A-Train]

The Whopper is in.

[mikejones99]

Mike Mitchell on fire and Bill Russell just complimented Ice on his defense.

[Willinsa]

I was 10 years old and I went to that game, a heartbreaker.

[mikejones99]

101 100 lakers win. Spurs had a chance with 10 seconds left.

[NASpurs]

Man I've been watching most of these games. I watched the Lakers/Wolves game when Horry and Rasho played with each of their respective teams they played back then and forgot how much the Wolves got ripped off in that game!

Then the Suns/Warriors game back in 91 or something where each team had like 100 points at halftime :lol Talk about no defense! Charles was the shit back in the day and especially that game. :fro
