    Not to mention Paul George fucking choking when he missed two free throws. Sweet, sweet karma for trying that dunk at the end of game 3.

    Tears man. I never thought I'd idolize a player as an adult like I did Jerry Rice when I was a kid. Dame has shown me it's okay!

    When Moe hit those two HUGE free throws, I had a really really good feeling we were coming back.

    When I saw PG miss those two free throws, I had a really really good feeling we were coming back.

    And I could feel it in the arena too. There wasn't a whole lot of dread.

    We have dame. We have a chance. That's the feeling I felt in the arena.

    I was a few feet from him when I did the truck game with HCP, and I wanted to just go up to him and thank him for just being real. But he was busy talking to a security guard for 5 minutes about nonsense. He didn't need to, but he went out of his way to continue the conversation with her. Class act all the way.

    So cool to watch an all time classic game and performance in real time, and have my team come out on top. This is one of those games that people will be watching on H4DDBI (holophonic 4D direct brain immersion) on ESPN Classic 40 years from now.

    I was fist pumping on the bus, lucky I was sitting up the back.

    Just cracked a Coopers Pale Ale, and settling in to watch the Trail Blazers broadcast.

    If I remember correctly (and I might not because I'm fucking delirious!) that was a classic case of "ball don't lie"!

    I watched the TNT broadcast live, and I’m watching the Trail Blazers broadcast on replay now. The difference is night and day.

    The TNT broadcast just shows the game, you don’t even think about the cameras because you’re just so into the game.

    With the Trail Blazers broadcast however, you’re constantly missing the action, and getting annoyed, because of the cameras chosen.

    @ThePosterFormerlyKnownAsTheHCP please let your director know to leave the closeups for the replays, just stick with the zoomed out view for live action, so we can actually see what’s happening.

    That's hardly the only thing the Blazer's Broadcast needs to work on. That "Keys To The Game" bullshit......in the middle of the game........needs to stop too.
