Feel like getting your heart ripped out?

Maybe I'll watch and then turn it off after Timmy's shot.

So...did that do the trick? We end up winning the second time around?

DAMMIT! I can't seem to turn the damn thing off! There is some comfort, albeit very little, in knowing that the "dream team" Lakers got their asses handed to them by the Pistons. Tony's game really has improved since then.

This is the first time I've seen the game again since it was played out on national TV. Can't help to think there were so many missed opportunities in that game...

Like Horry missing a wide open 3 pointer with a minute to go in the game.... or with Parker and Turkoglu taking ill advised 3 pointers 5 seconds into the shot clock.... on the play before.... Or that 3 of Devin Brown's shots were nullified by the officials...

All I know is we better win the whole shebang this year... or else... OR ELSE!!! (in my best Homer Simpson impersonation)

that would really suck if they showed game 4 against the lakers in 2002 right after the spurs game. DAMN YOU HORRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i saw the end (last 5 minutes). i can still remember saying over and over "it's not over yet, play good D". watching it again, i think manu played pretty good D. like shaq said, one lucky shot deserves another.

btw, don't forget that the spurs could have one the last two games to win the series. it's not like nobody else has ever done that.

1. Is "soon" before or after .4?

It was before. However, they showed the game this morning and, like a bad car wreck, I couldn't look away. It's when Timmy hits that shot at the end that I feel like I've been hit in the stomach. It's so hard to deal with when you know what's next.

2. What's on HBO?

Bill Maher.

Someone record where the clock started late.

Great sig

Crappy game.

I couldn't help myself. I watched it, and it still hurt like a dull ache not the sharp s shock pain that I felt the first time, but PAIN nonetheless.

However, I was very proud of Timmy being a man to take that impossible shot. My sister taped the game and stopped it after Timmy's shot. That's the way it should have ended. I blame someone new now. Doc Rivers had just declared that we won in the most improbable way possible.

Then came that stupid cheating lucky shot.....

I still have this game on tape. As a matter of fact, I watched it just a few short months ago.

Despite the outcome, it was a great ballgame.

[NBA Junkie]

Look at the bright side. Imagine how much worse it would have been if Horry's GW attempt in game 5 of '03 had gone in, instead of going in and out!

IMO, that would have been worse as it would have meant the Spurs would have lost after blowing close to a 20 point lead in the 4th quarter.

Would you rather watch a Karl Malone tribute marathon or the 0.4 game three times in a row?

I'd rather slowly be rolled into a carpet of nails than either
