        In a completely non-homer comment...

        The 1993 Finals has still been the best Finals in a very long time.

          I was only 4 when the Hornets game happened, but I still remember watching with my family, and we went crazy.

          I miss the Charlotte Hornets.

            I remember watching the Suns-Sonics game 7 of the Western Conference Finals. It was on NBC. Alot of bad calls. I felt like the refs wanted the Suns to go instead of Seattle.

                I was more LJ than Zo as well. It is interesting to look back at 1993. Alonzo Mourning then and Alonzo Mourning now seem like two separate entities altogether. I am more fond of '93 Zo. I wasn't specifically a Hornets fan, but that shot by Zo was just such an electric basketball moment. I used to watch that play over and over on my NBA Encyclopedia CD-ROM and the commentary is now permenantly lodged in my brain. Oftentimes I struggle to concentrate on everyday tasks, the only thing circling in my mind being "Here's Mourning. The shot. Goooooooood! Game over!"

                And not to change years or anything, but while looking for 1993-related highlights, I came across a 1991-92 Top Ten that had a real smooth move from Stacey Augmon at the 1:44 mark. . . just when I thought I'd seen every highlight (KJ's Hot Rod dunk is number 2). I felt obligated to share.

                    The Knicks were one of my "teams" when I was younger, so I definitely remember this.

                    Coincidently, I watched that whole game this morning on youtube.

                      Co-sign on that one. I was in middle school at the time, and it makes me misty eyed now watching it. Charlotte definitely at that time had the loudest fans in the NBA. I really hope that the Cats can replicate this soon.

                          Yeah that was fun. I was getting ready for high school that year and Charlotte was one of those bandwagon teams that everybody jumped on. They had the cool young talent in Gill, GrandmaMa and Zo, plus they had those cool 90s colors lol. Seemed like everybody and their momma had a Hornets starter jacket on the first day of school.

                              A frontcourt of Ewing, Oakley, and Mason wouldn't even be in the league today. The way they played, the NBA doesn't allow it.
