16 3-pointers made is the story of the game as
the Spurs behind Green and Neal set an NBA Finals record for most 3-pointers
made causing a 36 point lead deficit over the Heat. You think that's too much
to handle for the Heat? If you say yes, think again! That blowout may have come
so close but still so far for this historical game I'm about to feature.
Bulls vs Jazz, Game 3 (1998)
The look on the Jazz's bench tells it all. 42-point blowout on game 3 of the 1998 NBA Finals, ouch! |
Nothing like the game when all your players
scored at least a point and the visiting just team can't buy a bucket at all
cost. Karl Malone can't do it by his own scoring as the high point man for the
Jazz and the only Utah player in double digits while the Bulls are hitting on
all cylinders. Started with the stifling defense then shocking the Jazz with an
offensive barrage they've never seen before, the greatest NBA Finals blowout
just cemented its place in history. They say a picture is worth a thousand words
but a video is worth a thousand pictures; watch the onslaught here.
Now to game 4 we go, Miami stunned the Spurs with their Big 3 providing 85 points all combined tying the series 2-2. Speaking of Big 3's, 10 years after the biggest blowout in NBA Finals history came the biggest comeback win in NBA Finals history featuring the Boston's super trio (KG, Pierce, Allen).
Lakers vs Celtics, Game 4 (2008)
Down by as big as 24, the Celtics climbed their way back to the top and finishing the game as the winners. |
