Message: [QUOTE="ASweet3781, post: 2601037, member: 1926"] Was at MSG as a teenager in high school with my family for the 1996 comeback vs Iverson and Georgetown. The place was a madhouse. Went to the 1998 BET with my now deceased grandfather. As a student, I came home from school for the weekend and watched the 2002 and 2004 championship games against PITT. Remember rushing up to McDonald's before it closed on a warm night before overtime started for both games. Remember thinking there was no better time of year. Remember driving around after both wins and listening to Joe D. It just made you feel good. I had a job in 2011 that required me to work overnights and was sleeping during the day for the 2011 Quarterfinal vs Pitt. I went to bed thinking Pitt would have our number again. Instead I remember being woken from my sleep by my mom peeking her head into my room just staring at me. I remember thinking this must be good she would have never waken me up if they had lost. I said excitedly, What? "They won!!" What? "They won! At the buzzer!!" I leaped out of bed and turned on the TV to see the replay's of Kemba's ankle breaker. I hope I am wrong. But the last 2 seasons feel like this is the end of that chapter of my life. I hope I am wrong. Everyday. Never felt happier than during those times. Fear we may never reach that level ever again due to a variety of circumstances. [/QUOTE]
