    that's what great teams do. when the chips are down and the things that make you a good team aren't working you find a way to get the W. it's games like this that make me think this team is special.

    I am overjoyed with this one. Goodnight friends

    Agreed. (Agreed that I am overjoyed also, NOT that this is the win of the season)

    But.... game thread?

    Definitely win of the season so far. This kind of game last year, this team wouldve packed it in at the half. This year is different and its awesome.

    They really pulled together on the defensive end. Hell, we might have just witnessed Anderson's best defense of his career. Lulz

    No, the double OT win in Oakland is the win of the season(so far). That started the 10 game winning streak and was a huge statement to the league.

    Wouldn't get worked up about this game, seems like every Wizards game plays out like this. They get ahead, Wall just runs to the basket at will, but lose steam as the game goes on.

    Yes, last season's Rockets would've lost this game, but is there anyone who's watched THIS season's team that didn't feel completely confident that we'd make a second half run. I know I felt pretty damn good that it would happen.

    ok with a little bit of hindsight and non knee-jerk reactions the warriors win is clearly the better "WIN" i am just so proud of the effort and the work they did to fight when the gameplan wasn't working

    It's a nice feeling, isn't it? After we put up that absolute **** show of a first quarter, I still was texting my brother, "I still feel like we will win this one. We got this."

    Even us fans are starting to get our 2014-2015 confidence back.

    P.S. Swag Champs.

    Got to admit, it's pretty cool to find ppl need to be reminded of that win. We've had so many Wins, easy to forget....like, that was so Early December news.

    In other years, that would be our sole crowning achievement, and we'd be mentioning that game for the rest of the year.

    It's weird, but now when they get down I don't really worry and know they will come back. This is awesome.
