When KD hit that three with 5 minutes left to go up 15 points, I packed it up for the night.

Around midnight, I woke up and needed something to drink. I checked the final score on my cell and refreshed my phone, not once, but twice thinking it was wrong.

Luckily, I left my dvr on and rewound back to the 5 min mark and watched the ending.

That was nuts!

I did. My friend woke me up with a text at the start of over time. I still can't believe they pulled it off.

i turned it off before the three so only up 12 with about 6 to play...much more likely comeback

I turns it off and told my son to get to bed, watched FoxNews for a few minutes, checked back and we were still down, back to Fox. Had Texags up and someone posted about Dirk going off so I turned it back on right before Collison fouled him with 30 seconds to play and the tying free throws. Woke my son up to watch the ending, he never fell asleeP anyways.

I thought about turning it off and going to bed, instead I just muted it and watched 10 minutes of Curb Your Enthusiasm on my phone. As the Mavs got closer, I considered just continuing with the TV on mute and doing something else but I'm glad the team continued the comeback with me paying attention.

Exactly where I went to bed. Happened to pull up twitter before I fell asleep and saw a bunch of comments there. Still didn't really believe it, so I checked ESPN and saw it was tied. Caught the last two possessions of regulation and the OT.

Had fallen asleep on the couch, woke up right as Durant hit the shot, saw it as a sign that I should go to bed.

Driving to work this morning, Mike and Mike mention the game, and I almost swerved off the road

^^ Excellent.

I turned it off in the living room with 6 to go, and went to take a frustration-filled s***. upon finishing up and turning on my TV in my room, it was 101-99....WTF

Our group proudly hung around and watched the end...I'm always of the "well if we can get some stops...and some shots..." variety. It doesn't usually pay off, but it definitely did last night.

When KD hit the three, in my head I said "that's game." But luckily I'm a glutton for punishment, so I decided I was gonna watch the rest of the game. SO GLAD I DID! That one will stay on my DVR for a while.

I learned my lesson in '06 when I chucked the remote against the wall and went to bed after Ginobli hit the three. Woke up the next morning and saw the score and nearly schat myself.

Didn't turn it off. But I recorded it, so after KD's 3, I started skipping through the last 5 minutes until they began chipping away at the lead. My DVR ran out w/ 1:40 left in OT. I think it was tied at 105. I flipped to ESPN and there was about :34 left and Kidd had just hit his 3.

Rookie mistake. Always record 1 hour after scheduled.

Didn't turn it off, but stopped paying as much attention and got on my laptop. When Dallas started making a run I put that down and went back to the game.

I couldnt stop thinking about game 3 of the '06 (Whoop!) finals. As tempted as I was, I just had a calm feeling about it.

I stopped responding to texts/phone calls at the 6 minute mark, but never stopped watching the game. Couldn't answer any calls till the game was over, obviously.

I turned it off and started watching Family Guy after Dirk turned the ball over. I think they were down by 12 at that point. I got a text from a friend and turned it back on right as Dirk tied it up at 101. It was speechless

I'm not even a Mavs fan but I kept watching because it was the only basketball on TV. I was standing in front of my TV the last 2 minutes.

I turned it off in the living room and began locking everything up. I get to my bedroom and turn it on: the Mavs cut it to 13 (big whoop)...

The games are pretty late here in Texas. I'll bet plenty of Heat fans were tired and quit with 7 minutes to go. I wish I could see the look on their faces when they heard the score this morning.

Its an hour later here on the east coast. If the game is running late, run to the restroom and wash your throbbing vag and finish the damn game.

didn't turn off last night's game, but sure as hell didn't expect to see that comeback.
