Looking back at the last 10 years, what were some of your favorite or most memorable games?

Some examples:

The comeback game in the 02 playoffs vs. the Nets.
The comeback game in the 08 Finals.
Triple OT game in the Bulls series last year.
Pierce vs. LeBron in game 7 of the 08 playoffs.

you get the idea

That was one of the best of all time.  A team of mediocre players staging the biggest comeback against a veteran team with better talent.  They did it on heart and guts.  An incredible game to watch.  (of course I'm dismissing the pure aggravation and frustration felt when they dug themselves that huge hole in the first place).

Without repeating those already mentioned...

Game 6 of the '08 Finals

Season opener of '07 against the Wizards... first game with the new big 3, and we won by 20 after Gilbert guaranteed a win.  That was the first non-preseason hint that this big 3 may just have what it takes.  Besides, I was at the game so it's got a special place in my memory banks.

Ray's first buzzer-beater against the... Bobcats, I think.

The team collectively stepping on Detroit's throat in the playoffs '08 after Pierce was called for that offensive foul.

i agree, all the games listed top my list.

i would add the bobcats game in 08. just because i will never forget the way it ended with the steal, pass by pierce, and the 3 by ray at the buzzer.
