Those are all awesome games. Very cool.

Those are all awesome games. Very cool.

I cant wait to watch Denver game 3 again. That was one of the craziest games Ive ever seen. Just incredible.

 

[julius]

Wait, it just says "1977 NBA finals". Does that mean all 6 games?

 

[MARIS61]

Watching the finals now.

I hope our current team is also.

No team in today's league could compete against either of those teams. Not even close.

It seems that the concepts of desire, determination, personal sacrifice, teamwork, and never give an inch, have been greatly watered down over the last 4 decades.

 

[MARIS61]

RIP CITY!

BLAZERS WIN THE CHAMPIONSHIP!

Make the NBA great again.

Reminder that another classic game is on tonight.

The 5 overtime game

Currently in the first OT of the Denver game. That is one of the top five games I've been to over my 12 years of having tickets, and being a playoff game made it mean so much more. That was quite a series.

 

[julius]

This game and series just showed how bad this years team actually was.

 

[SportsAndWhine]

The 5 overtime game

Maybe my favorite basketball game of all time (I wasn’t around for the championship)

Stressful as hell but fucking amazing at the same time

 

[SportsAndWhine]

Stressful as hell but fucking amazing at the same time

I love seeing the boundaries of the game stretched... even though we lost, I loved seeing the weird foul rules happen when the Warriors were down to less than five active players

 

[SheedSoNasty]

At what time is the next one scheduled? I have YouTube TV and it hasn’t been listing these classic games so I keep missing out.

 

[-Ace-]

Tomorrow at 6.

 

[PHXBlazer1]

They’re replaying it now..it’s almost halftime. Last year we were so much more than the sum of our parts..this year we are much less..basketball is an art

 

[PHXBlazer1]

Jokic was dirty as fuck too intentionally slamming into Kanters shoulder multiple times. Watching this makes me miss Kanter, Curry,Harkless and Aminu..I know we couldn’t have kept them all but fuck..

 

[PHXBlazer1]

Damn Collins is so underrated..we had the perfect setup last year to make a deep run, then Nurk got hurt. Perfect mix of vets and guys on bargain contracts. And chemistry..the mysterious element

 

[Wade Garrett]

Hard to believe that was only one year ago.
Hardly resembled this years team in any way.

 

[BoBoBREWSKI]

This game on right now is awesome!
2000 playoffs vs Utah

The audio is crap.

It was kind of bittersweet seeing Paul Allen at the game.

Who was the lady that Steve Smith accidentally ran into that Paul went and comforted? Was that his mother?

Also, was that the game where his mom broke her wrist but refused to leave the game until it was over?

 

[julius]

I do love seeing the crowd being so into the game, especially standing up whenever the ball is on their side of the court.

 

[julius]

Ha, forgot about the "Beat LA" chant at the end. Say, whatever happened in that next series? I have absolute no recollection of it.

What audio?
Couldn't hear the play by play...
Why the hell would they even show that game?
No way in hell that's a Top 12 Blazer game and piss poor audio to boot?
Byron Russell missing two free throws constitutes a classic?
Guess I'm just angry.....wonder why.

Yeah, that's not one of the games I'd consider a classic. I'm glad they showed any games period, but that was definitely not one I think back on and go "damn, awesome game".

That was an ugly game if anything.

I have watched the Blazers vs Lakers WCF’s over, but to this day I havent watched any of the Lakers vs Pacers series. It hurts too much.

 

[Drttimmy]

Shoot, this game brings back memories. Aside from being absolutely buoyant about our chances at a championship, I'm reminded how exhausting and irritating that team was for me. I was dismayed with our inconsistency, Damon's TOs, why Grant seemed a shell of his prior year version, and where was the Sonic version of Detlef, and will someone step up and be the closer? None of that was probably fair, and none of those players were bad given their roles, but I was in my most passionate phase of being a fan. What a fun team! Man, Pippen was good. Such a long, athletic team. Killer on defense and killer in the post. They could have swept the Lakers with a guy like Lillard. Watching the game, I wonder how if things would have been different if we didn't make the Damon trade. Oh well, say la vie.

 

[BoBoBREWSKI]

Last night's game was great. I loved watching Roy lead that amazing comeback vs Dallas.
