    2015 Rockets Clippers game 6 should be on the iconic comeback list.

    rocket 3-1 comeback was nice against the clips in 2015, but warriors got a couple chips!

    2019 ECF, Tor vs Phi;

    w less than 1 second on the clock, Kawhi's 3-pt shot from the corner, after 4 bounces off the rim, went in,
    to clinch the series

    Iconic would be if they had that comeback against the 2015 Warriors even if it's just pressuring them into a Game 7.

    Against the Clippers, it's really a surprising stunner.

    The Clippers organization really gained respect and traction when Jerry West joined.

    The CP3 Clippers were always 2nd round fodder unfortunately for them.

    He liked McHale, and thought Milkhair got fired because he benched Harden in that game.

    The Clippers were supposed to have turned the corner from their playoffs woes when they beat the Spurs in heroic fashion.

    Exactly why they lost, not enough depth and playoff experience to withstand a hard fought series against the Spurs, and follow up with another series.

    Plus Paul was injured, Rockets miraculous shooting and coming back.

    Which exactly what happened in the 2018 WCF too but a tad later, in 2015 unfortunate for the Clippers and fortunate for us.

    Contenders usually do not have to struggle in Rd 1 and 2, to save energy for the later rounds.

    I don't disagree with what you say. Just don't tell it to Rudy T. ;)

    Yeah, Josh Smith was gone when the MAGAHale rockets came in and played like straight ass for 3 months in 15/16, so he may not have the right reference frame here.
