Midnight miracle sounded good but as somebody mentioned we already have a"something miracle." Breakfast game is fitting after pops comment

I like "Midnight Mayhem", as someone else had mentioned.
Maybe "Final 4:00 Squared" for the 16 (4 squared)-pt comeback...

Somehow I managed to block out "The Screaming Lady" while I was watching the actual game. I don't know how I did it, but I did. :wow Later, I was watching some of the highlight videos, and I was like OMFG!~! :pimpslap

Especially since most of us couldn't get to sleep by that time.
Don't get me started. I was screaming at the TV and praying there was no third OT. I had to get to work...it was like 7:30AM.

Re: Official Nickname for the Game 1 Victory, place your poll options here
the breakfast game... i own a dvr and have gotten to where i just start the games an hour late and skip all the commercials or just start it whenever i want. i had monday night off so i started the game way late, around 11pm or so, and luckily i had set the dvr to record an hour of over burn just in case, and it still cut off right after manus big 3 in 2OT, thanks to TNT for putting like 30 mins of the heat bulls ending on my dvr recording, pushing mine back... i had to go to espn.com to see if the warriors did anything with the 1.2 seconds. it was like 2-3 am by the time i finished the game and digested all the blog coverage.
it really was the breakfast game for me!

The Fantastic Four (minutes and players - Manu, Kawhi, Green, and Diaw/Parker (frenchies are only half a person, so both count as 1)).

"Manu's magnificent monday midnight mighty memorable miracle." Or the "Breakfast game", I like that too.

Re: Official Nickname for the Game 1 Victory, place your poll options here
"The 4 minute marathon." For a long time it was believed nobody could run a mile in 4 minutes, so the phrase "4 minute mile" became well known and a barrier/litmus test of achievement. The last 4 minutes of the game was a marathon of a comeback. Running a marathon in 4 minutes sounds so absurd, but that comeback in 4 minutes was a bit absurd.
My second vote is Game 3:57. Singling out Duncan's flu or Ginobili's game winner just doesn't feel right to me. Neither one had an historic game alone. I agree with previous posters that the nickname should express how much time was left when the comeback was started.

Midnight Miracle is concise and sounds usable, should we advance to round 3.
I know there is some gold involving Curry, breakfast, Pop and Manu but my brain isn't putting it together right now

Re: Official Nickname for the Game 1 Victory, place your poll options here
Game 1 was the first Spurs playoff game in over a week, so it broke the "fast" of no Spurs playoff games. Couple that with Pop's postgame comments, and there is only one conclusion...
THE BREAKFAST GAME!!!

Re: Official Nickname for the Game 1 Victory, place your poll options here
I think I'm just going to call it "The Breakfast Game" because here we are, at breakfast time the next day (actually what day is it, lol?)... still trying to wind down from the craziness. Plus, it makes me laugh because I think of Pop yelling at Manu, and then him kissing his ass later. So I've decided to call it "The Breakfast Game" for shits and giggles. When/if we win this series, it'll be even more funny and EPIC, IMO. :lol
So yeah... are we gonna have a poll? Yes? No?
