I was shocked this wasn't added three weeks ago when the NBA finals started. But the RateGame team had shifted to the World Cup already. This was definitely the worst moment of my life other than maybe FSU being left out of playoffs in 2023. We had the greatest regular season of all time at 73-9 and then in game 1 of the first round Steph gets injured and went on to miss 6 of the next 7 games and played through the injury the rest of the playoffs. Somehow despite that we came back from 3-1 against OKC and took a 3-1 lead in this series. But Draymond got suspended for game 5 and the momentum shifted to Cleveland. They won the next two games in blowout fashion to force a game 7. In the last 4 minutes of game 7 both teams kept putting up bricks including LeBron's block on Iguodala, and then Kyrie Irving cements the dagger with the game winning three. And our dream season was over and we became the first team to blow a 3-1 finals lead. CLEVELAND, THIS IS FOR YOU 🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕

one of the most insane things i've ever watched. the crown jewel of lebron's career leading the first ever 3-1 comeback in the NBA finals. "blocked by james" will forever be one of my favorite plays in any sport

10 next question... To be real though this is in my opinion my favorite sports event ever. It was the first time in my life I made the choice that I had to watch this game. I sat down in my living room while my grandparents were over for family dinner and watched some of the highest tier of basketball I've ever seen in my life. At the time I was a HUGE Steph Curry fan (like most tween boys at the time) I found his game to be so awesome and he was the coolest player to watch. To watch this game and specifically the blocked by James moment seriously changed me as a person. That moment has the power to trancend sports. If I mention "Blocked by James" or show you a black and white image you know what it is. Kyrie with the crazy step back to ice the game. What means so much more now is Lebrons post game. "Cleveland this is for you" after coming back and doing it for the Ohio team... the city with such little success in its history. Truly an iconic game in the history of sports.
