Game 7 would have been epic.

I had tickets to Game 7... with my Dad. Would have probably been the greatest sports experience of all time. That was THE two biggest superstars in the game.

That team went a pathetic 7-7 at home during the playoffs that year.

******* that team... they so could have had a mini-dynasty.

What was Ainge's thinking there? You're up two. Don't give up a 3.

Grant probably passed up a dunk anyway...

I don't think Ainge screwed up there. It was a split second thing... he saw a guy wide open down low who could have tied the game and acted immediately.

the whole play ended up being a cluster-fluck because Charles tried to play hero up top, and totally misses the steal, sending the entire D scrambling. I mean, Ainge doesn't just drop to Grant. He realizes Pippen has just blown by Barkley and is trying to cover for him there because Pippen has an open lane. That play was ALL on Charles getting way out of position.
