I remember turning off the lakers game after that alley oop because I was so mad the Blazers blew that game. lol And speaking of blocks I always will remember Tayshaun Prince block on Reggie Miller in a 2004 playoff game at Indiana.

Speaking of Miller, I remember he had a dunk in a playoff game late in his career in an overtime game against the Nets. Watching it live it was impressive. Never really saw Reggie dunk before, especially late in his career.

Looking over this thread I remember some of these things and other stuff Im like "who" "what?"

I definitely remember these mentioned moments

1) GS losing a 3-1 lead in the finals. Lets not kid ourselves after that regular season, the GS loss after being up 3-1 is going to go down as one of the ultimate collapses in all of sports for DECADES.

2) "Sure shot Bob" Horry shooting something like 2-30 from behind the arc to allow San Antonio to advance past LA in the wcf 20 years or so ago. Cost both Karl Malone and Gary Payton a ring.... (and I'm a spurs fan)
