An instant classic. That will be shown on ESPN Classic for years to come.

[Joe Schmoogins]

Manu vs. the Cavs... Feb 13, 2008

[Road Warrior]

'Nique and Bird going head to head in Game 7 the East Semis in 1988. Classic.

[monosylab1k]

1. The guy pushing Wade's wheelchair.

[Flo-Rida]

I forgot to add one dirk missing that key free throw in game 3 yea that has to go up there.

[monosylab1k]

James Posey being kicked off the Heat for excessive fatness.

[Flo-Rida]

James posey hitting that key three in game 6 and shutting down dirk in games 3-6 in the finals, and seeing the look on him winning his ring in dallas

[ratm1221]

I forgot to add one dirk missing that key free throw in game 3 yea that has to go up there.

I'm surprised you put a period at the end. You're posts are like those hidden sailboat pictures. You have to stare at it a while before it makes sense.

[monosylab1k]

Wade lashing out when everyone in the media told him the truth of his bullshit championship that nobody respects.

Well it beats not having one and you guys already calling the parade which was the funniest shit in years. So how is the chmapionship state of dallas doing.

[ratm1221]

Dirk scoring 50 on Phoenix.

[Findog]

Bennett Salvatore's masterful call at the end of Game Five of the 06 Finals. The grace, the clutchness, the desire....wait, what?

[monosylab1k]

honest question - is there a less respected NBA Champion ever than the 2006 Miami Heat? At this point people are trying their damnedest to forget those guys ever happened.

I really can't think of a championship team in NBA history that aren't about 10x better than Miami.

We draw a nice warm bath and break out the razor blades. Remember, up the road, not across the street! How is 9-39 or whatever the hell it is working out for you?

[monosylab1k]

OK and its better than being a never was
nah if i had to live with knowing that my team won because the refs gave them every call in games 3-6, then i'd rather my team not win it at all. i'm into legitimate championships.

[monosylab1k]

this guy is so easy to rile up, it's awesome.

[Findog]

How come in the movies everybody always shaves their head before a suicide attempt? Do I need to have Elliott Smith on my Ipod when the Mavs fall short again?

[monosylab1k]

pat riley cementing his status as the biggest douchebag in sports history by stealing the team from stan van gundy, then giving it away when they sucked, then taking it back, then making plans to give it away again.

[DisgruntledLionFan#54,927]

Zeke, with a badly sprained ankle, being off the floor for only 40 seconds in the '88 Finals, then playing out of his mind on one good wheel.

Yes, that one. Foul wasn't on Devin.

Seriously, there's three other Miami wins in the series that I wouldn't pin on the refs. But the Mavs played five on eight in Game 5.

oh thanks for reminding me.

Shaq getting bitch-slapped by Stackhouse and then stumbling around in a daze right afterwards. What a pussy.

I honestly though shaq was gonna hit stackhouse so hard he would have landed back in washington.

[Matchman]

1.) Hakeem blocked John Starks - game 6 1994 finals
2.) Mario Elie "Kiss of Death" on Phoenix Suns
3.) Hakeem game-winning tip-in over Shaquille O'Neal - game 1 1995 finals
4.) Kenny "the Jet" Smith drains game tying 3-pointer, 7 total - game 1 1995 finals
5.) Tracy McGrady 13 points in 33 seconds

[DisgruntledLionFan#54,927]

Oh, and Zeke's 16 points in the final 1:33 in the 1984 playoffs was pretty cool as well.

Carry on with the agitation.

By taking over you mean going to the free throw line? :elephant

Well, that's what happens with Stu Jackson decides a flagrant one should be punished as a flagrant two.

[duncan228]

Duncan's near quad double, game 6, 2003 Finals.
A performance for the ages.
League MVP, Finals MVP.

21 points
20 boards
10 assists
8 blocks

[dirk4mvp]

Dirk scoring 50 on Phoenix.


yeah..it may be a little homerish...but that was a badass performance.

[Holmes_Fans]

Random role player for suns(honestly can't remember his name), blowing a kiss to dirk. Dirk goes on to single handily win the game, might of been when he scored 50.

"One of the greatest individual performances in NBA History"

[baseline bum]

If I had to pick a top 5:

1. Isiah Thomas going nuts on the Lakers in the third quarter of game 6 of the 88 Finals, after spraining his ankle.

2. Robert Horry's last quarter and a half in game 5 vs Detroit. Rob was the second coming of Bird in that last 17:01 of a game that took a year off my life.

3. Michael Jordan dropping 63 on the Celtics in Boston Garden in game 2 of the 86 ECSF.

4. Stephen Jackson and Steve Kerr getting hot and leading the Spurs on a 23-0 run in the fourth to come back from 13 down to win game 6 of the 03 WCF in Dallas.

5. Tim Duncan dropping 21/20/10/8, including leading a 19-0 run in the fourth to win the championship in game 6 of the 03 Finals.

Funny, this one isn't on my list.

[LakeShow]

Cool, I like threads like this,

1. Magic Johnson and Jamaal Wilkes in Game 6 of the 1980 NBA finals. Great performance by those guys when Kareem was out. The Best one/two punch performance that I've ever seen.

2. The Lakers beating the Boston Celtics for the first time in the Finals in 1984

3. Kobe's 81 point game

4. The 2001 Lakers most dominating playoff run in the history of the NBA. Never has there been a team so dominating.

5. Isiah Thomas's performance in game 7 of the NBA finals against the Lakers on a severly sprained ankle. Hell of a warrior and one of the greatest PG's to play the game.

[Vinnie_Johnson]

Zeke, with a badly sprained ankle, being off the floor for only 40 seconds in the '88 Finals, then playing out of his mind on one good wheel.

That was great but I will take 1990 in Portland Vinnie Johnson shake and bake game winning Championship shot. :king

No love for Robert Horry here against Detroit when Tim was spazzing out on the bench? Ungrateful bastards.

[remingtonbo2001]

Duncan's near quad double, game 6, 2003 Finals.
A performance for the ages.
League MVP, Finals MVP.

I was there for that game and I can tell you first hand, I didn't have a fuckin' clue as to what Duncan's stats were.

I remember coming home later on that night (morning) and watching the recap, then saw Duncan's line and couldn't believe it.

That might have been the quietest, yet most effective game I've ever seen Duncan play.

That being said, the most memorable performace for me was the Memorial Day Miracle. I remember how the smoke sat for the entire first half. Then as the smoke cleared in the second, the Spurs made their run. That entire game was eiree. You knew the Spurs were going to come back, but would be soon enough? And then, what I consider one of the greatest shots of all-time,....Unbelievable...I'll never forget that game.

I don't know how you make that shot. Although, with the way Manu was playing last night... :spin

[Vinnie_Johnson]

Sorry that didn't make my list either.

[MajicMan]

lmao of course it didn't..It was Jordanesque though..Role player turns Superman while Superstar spazzes out on the bench. Role player saves day.

0-3 at home that series with the team we had that year was tough to take. still hurts.

[lefty]

0-3 at home that series with the team we had that year was tough to take. still hurts.

Yeah, I really thought we would win it that season; we had it all: the O, the D, the center, the rebounder, the assist-man, the outside shooting, the homecourt.

The Rockets were just crazy during the 95 playoffs, I don't know what went trough their heads; they were sick.

[Vinnie_Johnson]

lmao of course it didn't..It was Jordanesque though..Role player turns Superman while Superstar spazzes out on the bench. Role player saves day.

Not a single game but how about the 5 game sweep over the lakers :toast

[monosylab1k]

Not a single game but how about the 5 game sweep over the lakers :toast
Yeah that really was a great moment. I told everyone I knew "The Pistons WILL beat the Lakers, and it won't even be close" and everyone called me an idiot. But for one of the few times in my life, I was 100% dead-on with that one. I was a big believer in the Pistons that year as soon as the Sheed trade went down.

I completely forgot about the smoke at the beginning. I can't front though; I thought we laid an egg like in game 2 of the Minnesota series. The last minute and a half of that game was incredible, and the Dome was twice as loud as I had ever heard a Spurs crowd, even considering the Hemisfair days.

[Spuradicator]

1) Spurs 99
2) Spurs 2003
3) Spurs 2005

haha my team just suffered the worst defeat in NFL history can u cut me a little slack? :lol

[mikejones99]

Sleepy floyd owned the lakers in 2nd half for about 35

[Fillmoe]

81

[atxrocker]

yeah..it may be a little homerish...but that was a badass performance.


little homerish.. when you talk about all time performances? shit isn't even in my top 15.

[RonMexico]

In no order, here are a few I've enjoyed:

1. Jordan putting up 55 in MSG in his 3rd game back from "first retirement"
2. Lebron in Game 5 last year
3. Nash hitting 3 pointer over JET and propelling Suns into WCF
4. Tim Duncan near quadruple double in game 6 of 2003 Finals
5. Barkley leading the Suns back vs. Rockets in '94... from a 33 point deficit
6. Barkley scoring 54 against Warriors in '94 playoffs after Webber and Spree made that Nike commercial making fun of him
7. Jordan flu game
8. T-Mac 13 in 33

[SA Gunslinger]

yeah i'm sure whatever random Mike Bibby moment you have in there is real deserving.

[bostonguy]

Celtics coming back from 21 down in the 4th quarter against the Nets in the 02 playoffs.

They were down 26 in 3rd quarter and Antoine Walker was trying to fire up the team. Beautiful win it was only to lose the next 3.
:cry

Duncans 37 point and 13 rebound performance in game 6 against the Lakers was pretty epic. He went right at Shaq as they set the NBA record for biggest margin of victory for an elimination game to a defending champion.

Lakers/Blazers game 7 2000 WCF

Antoine Walkers game winning 3 against the Lakers in 2002 when they fucked Kobe over on that final shot that should of counted. Walker thinking he was a badass was comedy.

[monosylab1k]

this killed me at the time, but looking back now it's one of my favorite plays of all time, not sure why.

[stretch]

I honestly though shaq was gonna hit stackhouse so hard he would have landed back in washington.
Shaq can't fight for shit. He throws the most pussy-ass punches I've ever seen. Remember the Brad Miller altercation? How about fucking Charles Barkley who is half his size, punking him, then proceeding to whip his ass?

[nkdlunch]

Big Shot Rob in Detroit

[JMarkJohns]

One of the first great performances I ever remember seeing.

Tom Chambers goes for 60 points vs. the SuperSonics in 1990.

I looked up the boxscore: 22 of 32 shooting from the field, 16-18 from the line.

Chambers was such an athlete with the Suns. I'll tell you, he was really something. He could shoot, he could go off the dribble. He loved to throw it down on people in traffic to boot.

He was Dirk, minus the range, but a bit more aggressive in the lane. He was the perfect comboforward.

[himat]

It sucks that the Pistons lost the game, but the Chauncey three in Game 5 against NJ was amazing.

It's the last play on this video:

It wasn't just that shot

The first 2 games, T-mac was just all-over the court: scoring, rebounding, steals; he was in control.
But at hte end, Dallas won the series.

[LakeShow]

You can't possibly be a Laker fan. 84 was when LA blew a 2-1 series lead and lost game 7 in Boston Garden.

Wtf? That's some great logic there partner! I must not be a lakers fan because I said 84, instead of 84-85? My image of you is Blown!
