What's new

We’re getting pie faced on Last Dance


I haven’t watched the series, but I’m assuming they’re didn’t cover when the Jazz’s hotel room numbers were leaked in Chicago and they called them at 2:30 am and drove by honking.
 
The Eisley and Harper shots are my absolute most bitter memories of that series.

I never gave a **** about the push off at the end because that call will pretty much never be made at the end of a game.

But damn those two non calls were terrible then and terrible now.

I've brought this up so many times to folks when I say we got screwed. The pushoff was nothing... but we would have had a 5 point swing on stuff they could legitimately review nowadays. The Eisley one was the worst. Replay of the game is on tonight... I swear with like a minute left every time I watch it I think we will pull it out...

If the league was smart, they’d realize the most profitable thing to do with sports cancelled is to create alternate endings of multiples games. I mean, with CGI and all, if they can bring back Grand Moff Tarkan, they can make Jordan miss that shot.

MTJK liked this. Just think of how many titles Carmelo could rack up during this crisis. They could get the hype machine going and generate lots of excitement as Carmelo becomes the Kobe torch-bearer. It would be like Linsanity never happened, and it was all Anthsanity and he wins multiple chips.
 
Try being a Knick fan. The Last Dance has spit all over the Knicks. Heck, last night they even had a trivia question during the commercial break whose sole purpose was to mock the Knicks:

Q: Jordan eliminated 20 Hall Of Famers from the playoffs. Who did he eliminate most?
A: Ewing - four times.

The Knicks were by far the toughest opponent the Bulls had to get through. Yes, Utah was a top team, but we had Oak Tree, Anthony Mason, Xavier McDaniel, Ewing....monsters. The Last Dance did not make it clear that if Jordan did not exist the Knicks would have won four Championships during those years.

You talking game 6 in ‘98? I never thought we would. The entire time I thought we’d choke it away somehow. And we did.

We wouldn't need CGI to win titles. MJ eliminated us four times so all we would have needed was for those four numbskulls who worked in that Utah pizza joint to have used a better poison on Jordan.

And, believe it, no CGI is needed to make Lin look great. You Jazz fans saw that first-hand. Lin's second game was against the Jazz. I do recall Lin had a quadruple triple.

Yes, but we were up like 3 with 45 seconds left and I felt okay about it... up one with the ball. We needed like one thing to go the other way... and they all went the wrong way. At the time in 1998 I had too much Jordan PTSD and I knew we'd lose. Years later I watch it and I'm like "we got this... see you in game 7 Mike". Then somehow we lose every time.
