[QUOTE="Flyin Illini, post: 1111370, member: 7929"] Already watched the game in its entirety. I figured it was only right. Still got chills at certain moments in the comeback. Biggest thing I noticed watching that game this morning was toughness. That game was the epitome of tough. It wasn't 'fake tough'. I felt like Salim Stoudemire had some 'fake tough' moments in that game. He was shook by the moment, and I remember thinking throughout the game, watching it live, that he couldn't handle ball pressure from any of our guards, especially in crunch time. What a benefit it was playing that game in Rosemont, but still the grit, intensity, and toughness of every player on our team was remarkable, and frankly inspiring. If a sports moment tops that in my lifetime, I will consider myself lucky. :chief: [/QUOTE]
