I will still in high school in 2014 and my dad had gone to bed so I was watching the game by myself in the living room in the dark and it took everything in me not to wake him up from screaming
In 2019 I had been married for a month and my wife thought she married a crazy person…I didn’t hold back the screaming that time haha

Watchin a basketball game.
I only go to 1 playoff game a season if that. Was lucky enough to be in the 300 level for both shots. Honestly both were amazing and tough to grade but I give the rockets shot the slight nod.
If we lost game 7 in Houston would have been a no go probably and you could feel the tension in the building after chandler parsons (or was it Dwight Howard) hit a put back to give the rockets the lead. Then after 10 minutes of pandemonium when dame grabbed the mic and yelled “rip city” on the PA table it was crazy for another 15 minutes. Wild.
Holding my breath
Preemptively cranking’ hog so I could finish in unison (both times).
YELLING IN MY LIVING ROOM
I’m in the first pic lol
It was like a rising crescendo. There was so little time a good shot seemed unlikely. Arena was pretty quiet.
Then Dame flashed wide open, crowd got loud. He got a great look, crowd got louder.
Straight nylon, Eruption.
Watching live at home, both times.
Sitting in prison watching on our TV’s.
The entire block all yelled in unison.
Those who were clueless literally got scared. Those who were watching were all brothers for a brief
Moment
Houston: I was in Thatchers on Stark. Place went absolutely nuts and I don’t think I’ve ever been so drunk in my life. OKC: On my couch.
I was in the 300s for the Houston shot! For some reason, tickets were super cheap and kept going down closer to the game. I paid $20.
Losing my fing mind
I was watching Game 5 of the Trailblazers vs Thunder series in my basement and was confused Lillard ran the clock down as much as he did. I was not expecting him to shoot that long range three
I was at Bellagios Pizza on Broadway (RIP) waiting for my friend to get off work for the Houston shot. I was lucky enough to be in the 300 level for the OKC shot
First shot I was in a plane landing in Portland watching on some dudes phone a few thousand feet above the ground. Totally surreal.
