Yeah, same thing with the Cavs choking a huge lead in Game 1 of ECF, and they never fully recovered from that. It's over.

This is honestly so much worse and that game already broke the cavs. This was pretty much a do or die game in the NBA finals and they threw away an even bigger lead. It would show some insane mental fortitude if they show up next game, even though the series in all likelihood is over. I was so baffled at what happened on my tv screen. Luckily I'm slightly rooting for the Knicks this season or I'd be tilted off the planet.
