The Finest Moments of the 2012-13 season
Posted: Tue Jul 30, 2013 6:38 pm
This off-season has been pretty slow so I'd like to take a step back and observe all the wonderful moments that happened during the 12-13 season. Vote on which moment was your favorite and if you think something is missing, feel free to post it.
Note: I will be excluding the Finals considering it's obvious game 6/7 were our finest moments.
1. Miami @ Cleveland - 27 point comeback

Another one of those "Heat shouldn't have been down x points in the first place" games. I remember being really pissed of during the first half - "Of course, it's gonna be Cleveland that ends our win streak
" A few drinks later and before I knew it, we were on our way to 52-26 run to end the game. Heh, how about that? Even the Cav fans loved it. "Lebron 2014 Please Come Back" - let's hope not
General Board reaction: Jordan would have never been down 27 against a lottery team
2. Miami @ Boston - 23rd consecutive victory - 18 point comeback

Very similar to the Cavs game. Another heart attack waiting to happen, another double digit deficit to overcome, another game to make the Celtics our sons. Good effort, Jeff Green. Should have went for 50
Hall of Shame - Pierce getting the inbound pass thrown off his back by Battier...again!
Also,

3. Miami @ OKC - Blowing out the Okies in their building while also being pounded in the ass by the refs
Smh, OKC. You still haven't learned you need to have a strong start in order to win a game. Also, great job letting Chris Bosh dunk a half-court inbound pass with 1 second left.
Lebron going ham

4. Miami @ NYK - 16 point comeback
**** the Knicks. Nothing else to say

5. Indy @ Miami - Game 1 Buzzer Beater
Frank "I can brush my teeth while spinning a basketball on my toothbrush" Vogel decides to be the basketball genius that we all know he isn't and takes Hibbert out of the last play of the game. Hey, thanks, man. We owe you one

Yeah, I know, Zach. I can't believe it either
6. Denver @ Miami - Ray Allen's 4 point gamewinner

Well, it didn't take long for Ray to find his place on this team. Not even 4 games in the season and Ray is already saving our asses with clutch 3's in the final seconds of a game. Talk about foreshadowing
Oh, and speaking of foreshadowing....
7. Miami @ San Antonio - The ass-saving duo of Jesus H Shuttlesworth and Chris Bosh
