Good times, good times
the 2000 WCF which i attende din person, and when i watch still makes me smile.
We ended a potential contender before it go started and we launched a new dynasty in Lakerland ... those tickets were worth every penny and the game is saved on my DVR ...to bad that is not in high def though ...
agree with Luva the magic hook game is up there too and a a better played game TBH ...
I ran out on the street and screamed after We won that game ... the Blazers game i was in teh streets yelling but i also had to avoid the looters ...outside of Staples ...
There a lot of good Mavs vs Spurs gems. from around 04/05 - 09/10 there were a lot of good ones, including nearly all of the 06 series classics.
Same here, even called my friend in LA after that ridiculous circus shot by duncan during the ensuing timeout..... Yes I did answer the phone when he called me back a few seconds later (but after the 3rd ring)
heat - dallas game 3.
my boi dwade was in so much on da mavs i though i was watchin porn
dat was doin his THANG in dat series. Not even dat fake mj can touch dat.
Loved that game. Always remember 'Toine getting in Pierce's ear pumping him up and essentially pleading for him to save their ass. I had always like Pierce before, but I became a huge fan after that game and after the heart and will he displayed to keep driving the lane.
As for mine, I'd have to have a few categories.
Maybe my favorite is 2003's Game 6 in L.A. Tim put together maybe the most beastly of games ever played in a Spurs uniform, under the cir stance (venue and opponent). Looking back, it was the peak of his dominance -- and one that should have lasted a little longer had he not played summer ball the two following years and ac ulated the injuries and wear and tear. Still a beast after '03, but I'll always feel like we got robbed of seeing a year or two of his absolute peak.
Regular season game has to be Suns-Spurs in '05 for me. My boy had just got back from Iraq and we started getting absolutely blitzed as we saw the Spurs go down about 20 or so and end the third down 17. Basically threw in the towel. And then the Spurs (Manu) went nuts to come back and win the game in overtime. Just entertaining as , and the alcohol and my bro being back from Iraq only made it more so.
Also, one that some might not appreciate or remember, is a regular season game against the Lakers in '04 (which the Spurs actually lost). It was the first time we saw the player that Manu would become and realized he was more than just a pretty nice player. No Tim, No Tony, No Robinson ... the Lakers coming into the game with all the hype, the motivation of avenging last year's playoff loss and having their new "Big 4" intact, Manu singlehandedly manages to put the Spurs in a position to win -- having, IIRC, two shots at the buzzer just miss -- and only falling short after 2 OTs. Maybe it's just me, and maybe it's the fact that when you're accustomed to your team winning and being championship-caliber, but it almost seems like the games where your team is depleted and the expectations are out the window are the ones you find most enjoyable to watch. It's like unprotected, stress-free, no-consequence sex.
And of course there's the Memorial Day Miracle, Game 5 and 7 of the '05 Finals -- , any of the Finals-clinching victories (Kerr's Game 6 in Dallas was another one) -- but it's really like choosing between children. Ya know, it depends who has the hotter mother.
I was bring up the same game. It's not often that I can remember exactly where I was when I was watching a regular season game, but this was easily the most exciting game of that year. Both teams wanted to win bad.
even tho miami didn't play dis one, da best clutch performance i've seen in da past 5 years (was rootin for my bigmac) and da game dat made most happy.
I go back and forth with a few but this one always seems to inch ahead

Amazing shot by Duncan too!
The fact that game is your favorite tells me you're a bandwagon Lakers fan who jumped on during the 3 peat. Or you're under 25 (which I won't hold against you).
Guess you and Shaolin were too coked up and busy with buttsex to see Magic's Game 6 against the 76ers, or the infamous baby hook over McHale and Parish.
And the funny thing is, the .4 game didn't even lead to a le
Spurs-Mavs 2006 Playoffs (all of them)
Spurs-Lakers .4 series
Oh and this moment is a close 3rd:

Nope wrong assumptions on both counts.
Don't worry, psychotic weirdos with zero social skills usually aren't too perceptive so don't take it to heart.
This was probably the best game I've watched as a Mavfan. Game 3 in the Western Conference semis of 2003, very wild game.
The Mavs-Kings rivalry in the early decade produced the most entertaining games in the NBA at the time and this was probably the best one out of them all.
The .4 game actually sucked balls, tbh. Great last two shots, and maybe one of the most ridiculous finishes you're ever going to see under the cir stance, but the game was brutal -- just sloppy and not what I'd consider two of the best displaying why it was they were.
73-74? Ugh . . .
The only thing that sucks more than the fact that Tim went and represented Team USA in Puerto Rico after winning the championship, and the fact that it led to him wearing down in '04, is the fact that all of those s that he helped lead to the destruction of the world in that tournament ed out and left him to get screwed with that '04 Olympic team.
Funny how everyone seems to forget how dominant that team was down in Puerto Rico before they sent that abortion of an assembled team to Athens and proclaimed the world had just gotten that much better. But I digress.
Favorite game that I attended was probably the Mavs-Spurs game when Dirk dropped 41.
Favorite game I watched was either Dirk dropping 50 on the Suns WCF or the Mavs-Kings game Bump posted. Nothing was more exciting then all the Mavs-Kings series. Such an electric atmosphere for every game.
Game 5 of the 2005 NBA Finals, Spurs-Pistons.
I can call it one of my favorite games, but also one of the most stressful...same with game 7.
Easily Suns at Spurs, game 1, round 1, 2008 playoffs.
How about in 07 when the #8 Warriors knocked off the #1 Mavericks??? (lmao, never ceases to amaze how hard Dallas chokes)
The Warriors arena was pretty damn eclectic throughout that entire playoff run if you ask me, remember the Boom-dizzle slam all over Kirilenko???
n Game 6, the Warriors used a third-quarter 18–0 run to eliminate the Mavericks and become the first #8 seed to beat a #1 seed in a seven-game series in one of the biggest upsets in NBA playoff history.
The Warriors went on to play the Utah Jazz in the second round of the 2006–07 playoffs, where they dropped two close games at EnergySolutions Arena to open the series. The series then shifted to the Oracle Arena, where the Warriors won Game 3 in a convincing blowout. Baron Davis scored 32 points and electrified the crowd with a monster dunk on Jazz forward Andrei Kirilenko late in the fourth quarter.
Look at that place after the dunk, that Warriors run was awesome.
This x1000
If I remember correctly, Horry tried another dunk that he bricked, but that one was practically from the free throw line. Was the most epic dunk ever missed.
Spurs making Fish and Kobe cry like little es.
Classic. It makes me feel warm and fuzzy all over whenever I re-watch it.
lol "art" imitating life
That was a uva game. Great comeback too. Rockets had alot of great playoff moments in those back-to-back seasons.
