Surprised it took so long. Of course this game is a 10, but, I would argue it’s not obvious. This game was more of a slugfest than you probably remember. The highest scoring player in this game was Draymond Green who tied the NBA Finals record for most 3s in a game 7. Prior to the moments that make this game legendary, the best thing this game had going for it was closeness. Through 3 and a half quarters, the largest lead either team had was 7 points. It was anyone’s game, but to be honest, I couldn’t tell you much about what happened in those 42 minutes. The main thing I remember is Curry’s infamous behind the back pass that gave him a turnover. Still, with all that being said, we all remember those last 6 minutes Warriors go up 4, LeBron scores 6 straight points, Klay ties it up and then after a few minutes of no buckets, we got 2 of the most iconic moments in sport history. The Block and Kyrie’s shot. Those 2 plays completed the greatest comeback in NBA history. I’ll never forget.

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.
