Does anyone know what happened to the ESPNClassic channel? I have Time Warner and for like the past 4 days it's been changed to the History Channel.

I hope the Spurs find a way to come back and win. Down 14 at the half, it's going to be tough!!

[FromWayDowntown]

Down 18 -- man this is going to be tough.

[dimsah]

[Beno Udrih]

Damn we need to go to Portland 2-0.

[Beno Udrih]

Spurs are playing like shit. It's going to take a miracle for us to win this game.

[Beno Udrih]

4th quarter. Lets go guys.

[timvp]

God we are so much better than that team now...

Compared to the '99 team's worst half of basketball in the playoffs, I'd hope so.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

damnit, I hope we can pull this out

it would be awesome if we can go up 2-0 and hopefully get a split in portland

[dbreiden83080]

Timmy racing across the court to hug Sean was awesome what a game, what a WIN!!!

[thewatcher]

now...that is what i call a miraclous win

[T Park]

Thats the first time I've ever seen that game.

Hell of a game.

[dbreiden83080]

now...that is what i call a miraclous win

What depressed me is how great the crowd was back then compared to now, so much more energy and fire when they were not so used to winning.

:lol Man law.

that and plus it was amiracle comeback.

People today would be the same way if they came from 18 down in the 3rd quarter.

[Kori Ellis]

Thats the first time I've ever seen that game.

Hell of a game.

You weren't at that game???

[Louae]

ah, those were the good ole' days. I remember paying $2 for parking at the parking lot just across the tracks and walking to the dome. I can't remember what I paid in tickets but I was on the upper deck opposite of Sean Elliott's big shot.

I think I might have been the only person not celebrating when he hit that shot b/c from my angle, I thought he stepped on the line. it was a great game and a memorable season. the heart break ended that season and a long awaited dream became a reality.

[Manu Pacquiao]

Guys, how would you rank Sean Elliott's shot in that game among thhe all time clutch-miracle playoff shots of all time? Compare it to Jerry West's half court heave to force overtime, or Rex Chapman's falling down fadeaway three on the wing, Gar Heard's shot versus the Celtics and Ralph Sampson's corkscrew alley oop versus the Lakers. Does Elliott's tippy toes three pointer rank in the top 5 all time?

[Sec24Row7]

It was a horrible shot... If it dosent go in we are talking about that shot attempt like we talk about Rod Strikland's over the head behind the back pass...

But he made it.. so it was awesome...

[T Park]

You weren't at that game???

nope

Had to accompany the family on a business trip to New york...

[tlongII]

Enough with the replays of that SUCK ASS game already!

[ShoogarBear]

It was a horrible shot... If it dosent go in we are talking about that shot attempt like we talk about Rod Strikland's over the head behind the back pass...

But he made it.. so it was awesome...Yeah. This was the first time I had watched the whole fourth quarter since the actual game and I agree. He had DRob open under the basket and if he misses it he's Sean The Choker again.

But . . . he didn't. :elephant

[easjer]

Well, and let's not forget one of the most amazing points, so far as I am concerned. Sean Elliot was undergoing daily dialysis due to kidney problems. A few weeks after that game he underwent kidney replacement. I know most of us know that, but that's what I think of every time I see that shot and it's amazing what he was able to do, mostly through sheer force of will, I think.

[Extra Stout]

that and plus it was amiracle comeback.

People today would be the same way if they came from 18 down in the 3rd quarter.
It really was different back in those days. SA fans are a pitiful joke today compared to what they were in the 1990's.

[makedamnsure]

The Alamodome > AT&T

maybe that's because I've yet to see a game at the AT&T

[Extra Stout]

It was a horrible shot... If it dosent go in we are talking about that shot attempt like we talk about Rod Strikland's over the head behind the back pass...

But he made it.. so it was awesome...
Sean was seriously in the zone, like McGrady was in that game where he scored 13 in the final 45 seconds to beat the Spurs.

[Extra Stout]

The Alamodome > AT&T

maybe that's because I've yet to see a game at the AT&T
The acoustics of the Dome killed noise. The acoustics of the AT&T amplify it.

Fans really were that much louder back then.

[ShoogarBear]

Well, and let's not forget one of the most amazing points, so far as I am concerned. Sean Elliot was undergoing daily dialysis due to kidney problems. A few weeks after that game he underwent kidney replacement. I know most of us know that, but that's what I think of every time I see that shot and it's amazing what he was able to do, mostly through sheer force of will, I think.Sean had advanced kidney disease but was never on dialysis.

[SouthernFried]

I had season tickets at the convention center. It truely was the loudest arena in the nba. Alamodome sucked.

[CharlieMac]

Yeah, I saw that today. It made me wish games were still on NBC.
