The greatest playoff shot made by a Spur.
The greatest playoff shot made by a Spur.
Extrmely overrated clucth moment. Not even in the spurs top 10.
Toeing the sideline and nailing a three over the out stretched hand of Rasheed Wallace, one of the best defenders of that era. Damn. Love that look on Stoudamire's face.
That's easily the greatest game I have been to in my life. Until then the Spurs were always the team that had that kind of shot hit against them. The Spurs crowd was hungry and loud having never won and finally seeing it happen. Everyone was just grabbing and hugging random strangers after that game. It took forever to even get out of my section because everyone was celebrating the win. Everyone knew the WCF was the real Finals, that a washed up Indiana team or a crappy New York Knicks would have no chance against either the Spurs or Blazers. When Sean hit that shot everyone knew the series was going to be a sweep. Just the look on Stoudamire's face when he blew that free throw that would have put Portland up three.![]()
Also when Stoudamire was shooting that free throw was the loudest I have ever heard a Spurs crowd. The dome had these hollow blue plastic seats that made a ton of noise when you hit them and lots of people were paddling those seats as he was at the line. It sounded like a train going right by you when you had hundreds of people doing it at once.
Wish I had been able to see a real game in the Dome. Only game I got to see in that place was some preseason action. I just remember it being so cavernous they had a curtain off a whole section because no one was sitting there. Hard to imagine it ever being that loud there
Last 2 quarters vid. Damn hear that crowd roar. What a difference from today's en led chalupa eaters fans.
You're right, most of the time the building wasn't very loud because it was so huge. But there were like 35,000 people at that game. It was a crazy atmosphere.
Obviously you weren't living in San Antonio at that time this happened. You have no clue how important that shot was for us at the time, the entire city went nuts cuz we knew we were getting closer and closer to celebrating our first Spurs le. Your trolling opinion is invalid when it comes to this one.
Unbelievable, greatest shot in Spurs history. It was the moment when the fortunes of the Spurs changed. We don't make it. We probably don't make it to the Finals. We don't win the Finals, Duncan probably leaves. Duncan leaves, we never get a chip. imo
Having a fit of nostalgia. Would love to do it all over again. Hearing the crowd,... it was pure pandemonium. Haven't heard a crowd that raw in a long time. Too en led now... smh
dude just got the ignore button. tbh
That shot was a defining moment for the franchise. If they lose that game, they're likely crushed.
Mario Elie was so good for that team. One of the toughest bas s ever to play in SA. His backbone had a lot to do with the way that team played.
OMG, I had managed to block that cotton candy, My Little Pony color scheme on the floor out of my mind.
ace3g delivering per par w/ this thread tbh![]()
"It still hurts." - - Portland
That was 18 years ago already? Time folds in my mind.
Remember it like yesterday.
Nice job OP.![]()
Behind the certain was "Fan Fiesta" which I loved as a kid playing hoops
LMAO do you have a life other than being an internet nerd or troll?
You're a ing . It's time to ban you. You've turned into a real scrub poster. Where the were you 18 years ago?
I thought he improved a little bit over the last few months, but the Robinson/kawhi post and his reply here bring him back to being the scrub leader ...
Apalikes baited and a few guys bit. He got what he wanted.
Seriously. Don't feed him.
