Wow, frustrating game. That first quarter we should have been ahead by 10-15 points with how bad Golden State was playing.
All the missed free throws.
All that withstanding, we were completely robbed in the fourth quarter on many calls. That Larry Nance "goaltending" call, the Jordan Clarkson "traveling," and there's one other thing I just can't remember because I'm on about 4 hours of sleep.
Congratulations to #24 and #8. It's because of #8 I picked up a basketball for the first time. I wasn't a diehard until 2004. I'll never forget the 0.4, the Portland game and the crazy shots, I'll never forget Kobe's shot to send Game #2 of the Finals into overtime. I'll never forget that awful stretch from 2005-2007 as far as the team success was concerned, but I'll always remember all the performances from Kobe. Dwight getting baptised, 81, 62 in 3, Christmas Day against Shaq, The 2006 playoffs and going up 3-1, the game winner in OT, the dunk on Nash, and everything else until he changed numbers and we got Pau. I'll never forget Kobe's career and I'll miss it.
