For me last nights win was the 2nd most exciting comeback for the spurs. #1 for me still has to be the Memorial Day miracle.
Top 5. I always remember this one. I was working all damn day and got home with a beer and started watching from the start of the fourth and saw Curry with like 38 and was like :wow. We were down by a shitload and Curry kept going in he had made 2 plays back 2 back driving past Leaonard and throwing up floaters over Duncan. I just remember telling my cousin WE GOT THIS WATCH and bam curry got cold and once i saw Danny Green hit the floater in the lane i knew we were gonna comeback :lol. But yeah that comeback was amazing. That Manu three killed me though I was so pissed. But Manu just did his magic. The Mistaken Miracle. I'll always remember that 1.
It was exciting because during that game, we all thought the Spurs were going to the Finals. It was their 20th consecutive win...and then it all went to shit. :lolQuote:

This was the best NBA game I've watched in almost a decade.
Game 7 2005 was the most nerve wracking but rewarding game I've seen. My favorite was the clincher in 2003 because of DRob.
In terms of the actual game, this was the most thrilling one I have seen the Spurs play since I've been watching, which goes back to 1999. So much drama, so many big shots. For roughly half an hour I was on the edge of my seat.
One of the best games I've had the pleasure of watching. It was drama at it's finest, the agony to the ecstasy that I felt when Manu sunk that 3.
I think if we win the title this year, the rank of this game goes up dramatically.
Great game, but here's a list of games I can think of that rank above it just in the Tim Duncan era. Apologies if I got the year or game number wrong on any of these. Too lazy to look them up.
Game 6 against the Knicks (first title of course)
Game 7 against the Pistons (Amazing)
Game 5 against the Pistons (Horry scores 21)
Game 6 against the Nets (Duncan near quad double)
Game 6 against the Lakers (shut down the forum)
Game 6 against the Mavs (Steve Kerr)
Game 6 against the Sonics (FUCK YOU SEATTLE)
Game 2 against the Blazers (MDM)
Game 5 against the Lakers (0.4 in '04)
...
Basically any game eliminating the Mavs.
...
Tops for me are the MDM and Game 7 of the 2005 Finals, which IMHO was one of the greatest Finals ever.
This one was pretty freakin' sweet, though...but we gotta get 3 more and put GS away quickly.
