it's actually so iconic. i'm still hype from the game the other night. how you can come back like that is INSANE. WHAT A GREAT WIN FOR NEW YORK :legend:

I think when the dust settled re-looking at it.....   the Spurs were like a very very young team (early 20s like all of them) that just didn't have the experience the Knicks did to close out the games.

i don't know the players like that (i'm not that type of a fan, just a gamer that respects competitive gaming in general), but you could even tell just from Wemby alone. the ego was MASSIVE and ultimately, i think that was one of the things that may have cost them. 

a long, long time ago, i was on a volleyball team, and the first lesson our coach taught us was under no circumstance do you celebrate early. it has stuck with me for all these years and something i truly believe in.

but the Knicks fully deserve this win. i mean, they played kind of out of their MINDS. having a comeback or even reverse sweeps, it's genuinely such a crazy thing to happen and pull off. they earned it. the Spurs players hopefully will take this experience moving forward and will have their respective comeback, but i'm SO happy for the Knicks and for New York. it's sooooo nice to see one of our teams winning something so massive in recent times. 

i think, we really needed this sense of celebration and community, aside from the, interesting individuals starting riots and whatnot. that's a reflection of the small minded that don't know how to control themselves in any capacity, and i'll just leave it at that

Yeah for a lot of reasons you mentioned is why I've always like sports....  I see it as a metaphor for life kind of thing.  I know at work I've been told to never get too comfortable which is kind of like what your volleyball coach was trying to teach you.  Like with the Spurs it can be interesting to see if this something they can learn and grow from.

 

 

It's sort of like why I started watching the Jets again...  I always feel like I'm trying to "get it together" so it can be fun to root for a team in the same boat.  well sort of.  lol

exactly. "never get too comfortable" is another lesson and phrase i've heard over time. i used to watch Big Brother a long while ago, and something the players would discuss was that sense of comfortability. a lot of times, people who got too comfortable ended up going home. it's the same when it comes to work, personal life goals/ bettering yourself, etc.

sports teams and their players are just another major example of that. 

lmaoo the Jets.. i was originally going to use them as an example in my previous reply :laughga: 

a lot of people in my family are Jets fans, and i know very well their situation lol. it makes a lot of sense to me as to why you root for them, because of that connection. there is a specific esports team that i was rooting for a handful of years ago, for this reason lol. they ended up taking the championship after being the worst team in the roster (one specific year they had a 42 game losing streak lol). even though they weren't my main team, i ended up paying more attention to them as i got more into it. rooting for the underdog is one of the best things in general, and i just know that when the Jets eventually get it together and win, it's going to be absolutely insane
