Message: [QUOTE="DemonDeac22, post: 5292925, member: 12410"] March 15, 1992 with the Trailblazers vs. Boston. A double OT thriller. My brother-in-law wanted to leave the game early when the Celtics went down by 6 points with 57 seconds left as other fans began exiting but I convinced him to stay. The Celtics were down by 5 points with less than 15 seconds remaining in regulation. This game was Larry Bird’s last triple double with 49 points, 14 rebounds and 12 assists. Bird hit a 2-pointer with 7 seconds left in regulation and after the Trailblazers missed 2 free throws Bird hit a leaning, line drive 3-pointer off one foot with 2 seconds left to send the game into the first OT. It felt like the roof would come off the building with the crowd reaction. Goosebumps. Clyde Drexler was amazing with a near triple double of 41 points, 8 rebounds and 11 assists. [/QUOTE]
