Just be happy OKC traded Harden for Kevin Martin.
It's been approximately 2,880 minutes since it happened . . . and, honestly, it hurts. It's a pain deep in the soul that I probably won't ever shake. To be that close to such a great moment -- only to see it slip through the fingers -- is still devastating. Somehow, it seems to have hurt more and more as the days have progressed as the realization set in regarding what exactly was at stake.
Sure, in the grand scheme of things, it doesn't mean much. It's not something real. It's not a death or some other sort of real life tragedy. But given that following the Spurs is my only hobby in life, it's painful. I'm not going to even try to lie. It hurts.
I've tried getting away from it all to try to forget about it. But there I was, in the middle of the Pacific on a cruise ship in a pitch black room trying to fall asleep, and all that I can see is that Pelicans game replaying again and again.
Logically, I know the pain doesn't make a whole lot of sense. It's just a basketball game. And the Spurs already have five championships. And given all the injuries and fluke OT losses this season, getting the 6 seed would have been seen as a great success. , midway through the season, I thought getting into the playoffs would have been a success.
Logically, what the Spurs did late this season was a great accomplishment. After that loss in Portland, if you told me the Spurs would be only one game away from the 2 seed, I would have been thrilled.
But damn.
This pain doesn't compare to anything else I've experienced in my Spurs fandom. Yeah, .4 sucked. The foul was tough to swallow. The no-look pass was unpleasant. The backdoor sweeps weren't fun. The frontdoor sweeps weren't enjoyable. But all of those don't even register compared to this.
I've had an extremely busy weekend. Life is great -- never better. But it continues to haunt me.
Hopefully watching the game tomorrow will provide some sort of relief. The great thing about sports is there is always tomorrow. For now, at least, the pain of yesterday outweighs the excitement of tomorrow. I'm hoping that changes. Starting tomorrow.

Nothing a good old fashion butt kicking of the LA Floppers won't cure!FTC
And here I thought you were talking about the 2013 Finals, lol.
What a fvckin emo
No . The unmentionable game was/is far worse than a regular season loss to the Pelicans. the loss to knicks hurts worse than the Pels...they both meant the same thing but only one was an embarrassment.
Not sure if serious bruh
Same
This is a joke lol
THE SORROW, GLASS CASE OF EMOTION
what happened?
There was a game 7.
If we could have overcome the mental part, we might now be completely spoiled.
But we did not and don't deserve it. Game 7... They were better in 7 games.
I got absolutely no regrets.
This pain better be about what some refer to as 6 or Im gonna call for help.
Cruise ship... Alrighty then.
Did you read OP's post?
Rip Timvp.
OP isnt talking bout 2013, hes talking about the pelican game loss.
Pretty sure it's a stupid joke but........
btw game is sunday not tomorrow
But seriously, it does suck that we were a win away from the #2 seed and a significantly better shot at #6..
Yes.
It better be a Miami relapse because if it's due to the Pelicans I will call for help.
Hey man he might have taken that loss really hard, although it was just a regular season game it was basically a playoff game!
I think he was joking or hope he was, if not he needs to quit watching sports.
If loses cause more pain than the joy of winning get a new drug.Hey man he might have taken that loss really hard, although it was just a regular season game it was basically a playoff game!
