Best Spurs playoff game I've ever watched, but I've only been around since 2010.
Throughout Spurs playoff history, we've had memorable games, the memorial day miracle, Kerr's three pointers, Jax offensive burst against New Jersery, and others.
Where does this one rank?

Most people here probably can't rank it as they all left crying at the end of the 3rd. (robdiaz)
There have obviously been more meaningful wins, duh. However, that was the most thrilling win I've ever witnessed. The Spurs were just lethargic, off and getting owned the entire game until 4:30 left. Then the crazy clutch overtime shots. Wow!
That's what some guy said on the radio, that fans left.Most people here probably can't rank it as they all left crying at the end of the 3rd. (robdiaz)

I thought that ass clown wasn't supposed to post anymore?
This win doesn't mean unless we win 11 more games.
I agree. There are some games that I remember more than others. For me, this will be one of them.
Clinch game 99
Game 5 vs Pistons in Finals 05
Memorial Day Miracle
Close out game vs Lakers in 03
All rank ahead of the first game of a 2nd round series vs a 6 seed that we would beat in the best if 7 if we won or lost.
Was a lot of fun to watch for about 30% of the game though... Watching curry go off was insane... The watching us come back was sweeter....
Reminded me if that game vs the suns in the regular season where Manu had 48.
it doesn't mean much if we don't win this series...
For me, the most exciting Spurs playoff games have been:
2005 Finals Game 5
2003 WCF Game 6
2008 Round 1 Game 1
2013 Round 2 Game 1
2012 WCF Game 2
2006 WCF Game 7 (despite the loss)
2004 Round 2 Game 5 (despite the loss)
horry hip check on nash, finals game 7 against detroit, memorial day miracle, duncan near quadruple-double, all are top 5 to me. Horry's performance against detroit in game 5 also made that game special. This game was great, and is definitely top 10 Spurs payoff games, ever.
Game 5 of the 2005 NBA Finals was the best Spurs game I have ever seen. This game ranks up there with some of those 2006 WCSF games against the Mavs though.
2005 finals game 5 of course is probably the greatest spurs game of all time. Robert Horry dunk & 3s, etc.
1999 Memorial Day miracle is up there too.
2003 Elimination of the 3peat Lakers
2003 Duncan's quad-dub vs. the Nets
2008 Duncan 3 versus the suns was fun.
2011 Neal's clutch 3 against memphis (in game 5?) was great, even though that series was trash.
BEST GAME IVE EVER BEEN TO. I finally broke my playoff jinx and I couldnt be more happy. I moved down BOUT 20 ROws to the 5th row when all the 2%ers left when we were down 18 and OMG. I just dont have the words. I wanna cry, Im so glad I didnt leave, just simply amazing and proud to be a spurs fans, best time ive had in awhile. Jeez I'm drunk.
I was lucky enough to be in the building for 2008 R1G1 spectacle, and at the time I considered it the most exciting game I'd ever seen. In terms of overall rank? More significant games must go higher, so:
1. 2005 Finals, Game 5
2. 1999 Finals, Game 5
3. 1999 West Finals, Game 2
4. 2003 Finals, Game 6
5. 2013 West Semis, Game 1
6. 2008 West Quarters, Game 1
If it's just rankings based on how much hair I lost and how many strokes I had, then we go:
1. 2005 Finals, Game 5
2. 2013 West Semis, Game 1
3. 2008 West Quarters, Game 1
Good list.
One suggestion: wasn't it 2003 round 2 game 5 where Horry clanked the winning shot for the Lakers?
On a related note: God I loved beating the Lakers after their threepeat.
Nonsense. Pretty sure the 2OT Game 1 against Phoenix means a lot to Spurs fans, as does winning game 7 in New Orleans. Or Duncan taking over against Phoenix in 98. Or AJ killing a trio of Kidd, KJ, and Nash in that same series. Or the 24 point comeback against the Clippers last year. Or 19 year-old Parker completely destroying Payton on the road in game 3 of that Seattle series. Or destroying 2-seed Dallas in 2010. Or Bruce Bowen saving game 5 against Dallas in 06 by blocking Nowitzki's game-winner.

Yup, me and JT will play this card.
On another note, that's a great point too. I remember those games just like yesterday.
im gonna remember this game for a longgggggg timeee
what a great comeback by the spurs, still i dunno what to take from this game
they got dominated by gsw until the run, im just glad we won this game and thats the best part, my head hurts - back and forth in both OTs,
Not denying that it was a fantastic game that will Didn't say it won't be one to remember, but it doesn't mean if no le.
it don't mean unless we win the series.
I see Elian Gonzalez getting another couple of monster games. let's see if Green and Kawhi can show up for a whole series.
right there with the comeback against phoenix when TD hit the 3 pointer to send to OT. can't beat memorial day miracle or the detroit series game 5 yet as of yet because those games ultimately led to les.
don't remember 2012 WCF game 2 being particularly exciting. i think 2012 Round 2 game 3 was more epic. the huge comeback against the Clippers.
