still thinking about that Garden crowd from Finals Game 4. almost stayed home.
my voice was completely gone after this one.
29 down and somehow nobody in the building really sat down once the comeback started feeling possible.
the OG chase-down on Fox was probably the moment it flipped for me. then Brunson launches that stupid deep three, it comes off, OG gets the tip with 1.2 left and the place just explodes.
i almost missed all of it.
was dead tired that day and had basically decided i was watching from the couch. then a few hours before tip i started looking at random singles because the FOMO got annoying.
found one on veritickets, stared at the price for a minute, bought it anyway.
terrible financial decision. zero regrets.
rewatched the ending the next morning and it honestly felt slower on video. inside MSG it was just noise and everyone around me losing their minds at the same time.
still the loudest stretch of basketball i've ever been in.
