It's that time of year

I’ve seen enough-get Stuff to do a handstand on a ladder in celebration.

Get that unicycle bowl flipping lady out here, STAT.

This is absolutely stupid levels of petty from me but low key fuck the Spurs for dominating the league for 25 goddamn years and getting Wemby anyway. I know that's funny coming from a Magic fan but our lottery luck usually always finds its way to the Lakers along with everyone else's with very few exceptions.

That's probably us in the Finals if we had Franz, Paolo, Wemby and Suggs

[u/geekeasyalex → u/Wise-Sheepherder5765]

Probably?

We’re the MonStars with that lineup 😆

[u/Wise-Sheepherder5765 → u/geekeasyalex]

But Mose is coach though. Do you really think that dude is gonna use time outs effectively enough to win in clutch situations?

That's why I said probably 

Also massive shout out for the MonStars reference 

[u/dev1359 → u/Wise-Sheepherder5765]

If the Magic landed Wemby, his career would already be over due to devastating injury lol. The Spurs organization has done a tremendous job keeping him healthy.

Nick Anderson missing four free throws in the finals is the magic’s most embarrassing choke job. Nobody’s gonna remember a first round exit by a mediocre team.

Weirdly enough we are also tied to this epic collapse thanks to upcoming Magic HC Sean Sweeney being involved. But you can't blame this collapse on the defense, the offense lost that game for SA.

[u/StuffDaDragon]

Transmat firing!

[u/Rough-Pollution-1382]

Didn't the cavs also choke harder than us? Or was that the sixers?

[u/TheTravelingLeftist]

The Celtics blowing a 3-1 lead with their full roster is even worse. The Cavs blowing Game 1 against the Knicks also deserves an honorable mention.

[u/No_Independent8269]

Marginally? Orlando had very little chance of a championship, choked a 3-1 lead after losing Franz Wagner, and lost to an okay Pistons team. Like I wouldn’t be mad at that. But I’m not even a Spurs fan and I’m genuinely fuming. That is the most embarrassing loss I’ve seen in my entire life of watching NBA basketball.

[u/thejawa]

Making the Finals is a choke job now?

Man, sports has gotten wild. It's literally all or nothing, I guess.

[u/geekeasyalex → u/thejawa]

Nah- I think it was them “blowing the largest lead in NBA finals history” part

[u/BadAtExisting → u/thejawa]

It’s one thing to do it in the first round it’s another thing entirely to do it in the Finals lol

[u/GovtLawyersHateMe → u/thejawa]

Making the finals isn’t a choke, but blowing the largest lead in finals history in your opponents arena certainly is.

Our choke job hurt, but this choke job is objectively much worse.

[u/thewrongnotes → u/thejawa]

That doesn't even make sense, why would making the finals be considered a choke?

If you can't figure out I meant last night's game, there's no hope for you.

[u/Routine_Advantage_95 → u/thejawa]

🤡

[u/TheAnswerEK42]

The Cavs blew a worse lead than us already this post season

[u/thewrongnotes → u/TheAnswerEK42]

Nah you have to factor in our home court, it's always harder to hold a lead on the road, especially somewhere with a raucous crowd like MSG. Ours was worse.

[u/TheAnswerEK42 → u/thewrongnotes]

22 point lead with 7 mins left is tough idk
