When the final buzzer sounded and the miracle was complete, the Boston Celtics celebrated like it was the end of Game 7 instead of Game 3. Paul Pierce's teammates mobbed him at center court until he broke free and jumped atop the scorer's table. Coach Jim O'Brien's ever-present poker face disappeared, the most stoic of NBA coaches pumping his fist to the crowd and walking triumphantly off the court. The Celtics pulled off the greatest fourth-quarter comeback in NBA playoff history Saturday night, with Pierce scoring 19 of his 28 points in the final 12 minutes as Boston overcame a 21-point deficit to beat the New Jersey Nets 94-90.
Suns/Lakers series. Fun stuff, big shots, some Suns dominance, Lakers comebacks, fights, conspiracy talk...best series I've ever watched.Watching bad teams become good and there being some parity in the league has been great for me. Tim Thomas' kiss to Dirk....haha

With Reggie went my love for the Pacers. Now the pacers are just a bunch of whiney twits who can't get their juvenile asses together.

Some I got to witnessShaq with 3 straight Finals MVP'sGame 7 of the 2000 WCF, the comebackKobe with 9 straight 40 point gamesAllen Iverson carrying the 76ers on his back in 2001Ben Wallace scoring less than 10 ppg and being an all star every yearGame 7 of the 2002 WCF, easily a top 5 game of all timeOh yeah
This isnt really a good thing, but I will always remember the lockout in 99. It shows how the NBA players can be very selfish and greedy at times. I will also remember that year because the Spurs won it all and the Knicks (8th seed) made it to the finals.Also, how about when Reggie Miller scored like 8 points in like 20 seconds to win the game for them. That isnt exact but it was something like that. And you cant forget about T-Macs 13 points in 45 seconds agaisnt the Spurs to win. That was just straight up ridiculous.
Wow, this is something I forgot to put down that will be remembered by big Celtics fans of this era forever:The Walker Wiggle!!! Friggen classic...
