    What is Dame saying while popping his jersey? "This is my mother fucking city?!"

    Also, Clyde Drexler is one of the most inarticulate announcers in the NBA. Good Lord.

    ...yup, I was there. Standing and screaming from the very top row of the Rose Garden! And just like that fateful night, I now have the biggest goosebumps watching this moment. Best sporting event I've ever witnessed (for now). Thanks @yuyuza1 !

    To be fair, we were on track for a better record and the 2nd seed in the West the following season until Wes ruptured his Achilles on March 5. Can't really blame that one on Neil. He put together a good squad that year, but injuries happen.

    ...GTFO of course you didn't -- big ballers like you don't look up to the back row/wall near the rafters! You can probably barely see to the 200 section #TOOCOOLFOR300LVL

    No. We had lost 10 of 20 games before Wes got hurt and were in free fall just like the year before.

    We had just traded for Afflalo 6 games before Wes got hurt, had won 5 straight, and were playing the best defense we had played in Stotts' tenure. Freefall it was not.
