knicks sold they soul when they gave soft allan houston a max contract and pushed spree out the door after him & camby singlehandedly carried them to the finals. damn corporate cowards.
This is EPIC. I miss these days. I'm from Sac & got to watch Spree alot when he played in Oakland. I loved watching him play in Oak & in NY. I wish the Kings woulda traded for him before the Knicks did. Can you envision what it woulda been like to see Spree running with CWebb, Divac, JWill, & Peja?? Woulda been unstoppable.
damn i remember how much that game hurt. Spree put us on his bacc. 35 points out of a 77 point team total. what the hell was mr. 100 million dollar houston doing. that forever soured allan houston in my eye. never showed up when it counted unless it was agianst miami!!!
@tiltop11 It's a different game today. That follows on the shoulders of the coach. Antoni is not a right fit for New York and was a head scratcher for me when got him. Unless he adjusts his defensive startegy, the knicks will be just another good team that could have been.
Sprewell could be even better than Kobe now (at 99 he was actually way better than Kobe) but instead he became famous for his fighting with coaches and arrogance off the court, what a talent wasted!!
is it just me but damn i miss good ole basketball games like this man. Sunday sitting around with ur family just came from church big mama cooking up a meal and just sitting with ur famz watching baskeball. Damn yah i know its 2011 but the 90's was the years and we need that back. lol
i remember this game very well. I was rooting for the knicks to extend the series,and sprewell was on one of the hottest streaks I've seen. Too bad the knicks couldn't win,and sprewell couldn't make the most of the next couple years. he was honestly a great player! I really miss those Knick teams!
@cyrusman122000 loll I feel you on that one bro, I first started watching basketball this year as a kid. It was special cause' I was goin crazy for the Knicks to win. They had such a good team with Houston, Spreewell, Ewing, Ward, etc. This was their title, I bet these Knicks could easily take the Knicks today with Melo and Stod. Anyway tho, Knicks all the wayyyy lol
Sprewell and Rasheed Wallace are the craziest dunkers. I really miss those 2 guys ! Shaq makes the funniest shows because he can dance and he's Shaq Attack. And I love Carter too but I think he takes his job too seriously. Well he never laughs.
the knicks were the ultimate underdogs in the 90s man. if it werent for the damned bulls, spurs, and rockets, they would've made a great legacy. 2 finals appearances (8th seed in 1999) in the 90s is too hard for any regular team.
i said b4 i'll say it again the knicks will never win until they get the same look that Spree had in his eye after destroying Jaren Jackson. Shit the NBA needs to get that look in its eye back. i get tired of seeing this sad excuse for intense Bball in 2days NBA
@DL212 hell yeah, i maybe a celtics fan, but this guy was a fuckin beast, i wish he continued his career and stayed with the timberwolves cause he did turn down a good deal.
Bob Costas is a brilliant basketball mind, how can he say that Sprewells not much of a 3 point shooter? Does the phrase "Spree for three" ring a bell to anyone?.....
Out of all the teams SA faced during their 4 title runs, the Knicks were their toughest opponent, considering Ewing didnt play.
And Spree is one of my all-time favorite players; when he was on fire, he was really on fire; I remember that regular season game @ Milwaukee in 2000-2001; he caught fire late in the 4th and OT; finished with 48 pts and 9 threes
I'm not a Knick fan but I still wait for the day they bring back that super fast defense theme only used at The Garden. They use a slower version of it now, it's okay, they use a semi fast one, but that super fast one used here is the best. That's what made all the close games at The Garden so hectic and crazy.
@mikescorpio1108 Their overall presentation was just so much better bro. and remember their pregame build up intro videos. Like when Jordan first game back in the Garden from his baseball retirement and I remember vividly the lil girl sying "He's Backkkkkkkk." Nbc on a whole another level in comparison to Espn/Abc broadcast.
I've seen this game and Latrel's performace was awesome! but they were too small vs the spurs. and spree's persformace as man ohh man.. He is the best thing that happened to the Knicks
dam, outrageous highlights. Edgeraze I specifically like the middle =P Could you believe I recently trained enough to begin dunking! I just completed the the nba workout over at 50inch vertical[dot]com and made it in just 1 and a half month!
Latrell Sprewell - Best of NBA Finals 1999 Game 5 cttxtfhopzzzu meajzixsdmaavxmg #Edgeraze
Edgeraze, I play basketball every other day. I am only 5'9 and I am able to dunk! I simply took this special jump training workout at 50 inch vertical (dot) com - anyone can do it
#VIDEOPOSTERID#, I love playing basketball. I'm simply 5'5 and I am able to dunk! I simply took the training workout at 50 inch vertical (dot) com - you can probably do it too
knicks have only won 1 title lol spurs got 4 within the last 11 years. but the knicks has a good team in the 90's one of the best. but this past decade they fell off big time. spurs r still good
Uh Dumbass they've pretty much sucked this decade spurs have won more championships this decade than the Knicks have ever had in their lifetime (64 years to be exact)
Homey Spreewell was a beast man, this is when i was a real fan. Used to love the Knicks. I know you supposed to stay faithful to your team no matter what but after 04 i gave up on em.
When will the Knicks back to the Final, like this. This was the last time Knicks at the Final, which is more than a decade ago. They have not made to the playoff for a long while, as a matter of fact.
I like Sprewell, too bad he left the NBA without a ring. If Knicks are about to get a player like him, we would be way better off.
knicks fans are frontrunners mostlybut ill give them that when they are at the game THEYRE LOUD! theyre into it, unlike laker fans or other frontrunners, and sprewell was a beast in this game
man, crazy moves. Edgeraze I mostly like the end =) Can you believe I recently trained enough to begin dunking! I just completed the the nba workout training at (50 inch vertical [dot] com) and did it in only 6 weeks
@TheAlexandertv not any more and i dont know why u guys suck why do yall even have fans san antonio has millions of fans and loudest and best fans i the nba
i was 11 watching this game live. this was one hell of a battle between Spree & Duncan! i have no idea why ppl always talk about Bird & Wilkins and never mention this...
not a Knicks fan, but this was their team, i loved watching this game, despite me being less than 6, i remember the intensity and when Sprewell made that jumper and got fouled the energy in that building was unbelievable.
the look after the reaction at 0:17 after the slam is exactly the atitude the knicks and the nba is missing right now. no one played at such a high tempo for the WHOLE game quite like spree did.
LATRELL SPREWELL was a Knick at heart motherfuckers.
That dude fuckin REPRESENTED New York.
HELL YEA - I just pumped my fuckin fist when he hit that fuckin shot again MaBleak Rose. I haven't done that in a couple years, ironically, when I was probably watching a 99 Knicks tribute vid lmfao. On k4l.
Ahhh man.....WAT IN THE HOLY MOTHERFUCKIN HELL has James Fatass Drunk George Bush V. 2. done to my Knicks?
We used to fuckin represent that jersey like Starks, Oak, Mase, Xman, Camby...
Anybody notice that when he would score a basket, the instance it went in, he's halfway down the court ready to play defense? What warrior. Loved how he played.
Man, these were the days. I miss Spree and the rest of the team from this. I haven't watched basketball ever since because it's not the same as it used to be.
Just hearing the crescendo of the crowd at 0:15 on the Sprewell dunk was like electricity running through my body. It was amazing how crazy that Garden was back in those days
Spree was the second best player I've ever seen as a Knick...of course I didn't grow up in the 70s but Spree was sick. Clutch, lock down D and I loved his attitude!
sucks how spree ended his career.. he had the 2nd chance to improve his reputation.. but he wanted more money instead.. it really sucks that he wont take a paycut to improve minnesota's team back then..
teams were after him after his contract with minnesota ended.. but he wont take less money.. it hurts his pride.. but look now he didnt get any money..
im a fan of spree since his rookie year btw.. im just disappointed..
If Ewing wasn't injured, they would've won.

not a Knicks fan, but this was their team, i loved watching this game, despite me being less than 6, i remember the intensity and when Sprewell made that jumper and got fouled the energy in that building was unbelievable.

the look after the reaction at 0:17 after the slam is exactly the atitude the knicks and the nba is missing right now. no one played at such a high tempo for the WHOLE game quite like spree did.

LATRELL SPREWELL was a Knick at heart motherfuckers.
That dude fuckin REPRESENTED New York.
HELL YEA - I just pumped my fuckin fist when he hit that fuckin shot again MaBleak Rose. I haven't done that in a couple years, ironically, when I was probably watching a 99 Knicks tribute vid lmfao. On k4l.
Ahhh man.....WAT IN THE HOLY MOTHERFUCKIN HELL has James Fatass Drunk George Bush V. 2. done to my Knicks?
We used to fuckin represent that jersey like Starks, Oak, Mase, Xman, Camby...

Anybody notice that when he would score a basket, the instance it went in, he's halfway down the court ready to play defense? What warrior. Loved how he played.

Man, these were the days. I miss Spree and the rest of the team from this. I haven't watched basketball ever since because it's not the same as it used to be.

Just hearing the crescendo of the crowd at 0:15 on the Sprewell dunk was like electricity running through my body. It was amazing how crazy that Garden was back in those days

Spree was the second best player I've ever seen as a Knick...of course I didn't grow up in the 70s but Spree was sick. Clutch, lock down D and I loved his attitude!

i see chris dudley.. lol
sucks how spree ended his career.. he had the 2nd chance to improve his reputation.. but he wanted more money instead.. it really sucks that he wont take a paycut to improve minnesota's team back then..
teams were after him after his contract with minnesota ended.. but he wont take less money.. it hurts his pride.. but look now he didnt get any money..
im a fan of spree since his rookie year btw.. im just disappointed..
