    most of us generally know where r2k puts his torrents first but please let him be the first to post any links there is a good reason why he does this.

    I opened my BitSpirit client so that I could seed the Mavs game 2 vid, but it doesn't appear to be uploading that one to anybody. Is anyone trying to d/l it or do I have to do something special to seed an already downloaded file?

    That is what I did. I reopened my bittorrent client -- after watching the downloaded game, of course :D. Almost 3G uploaded by me so far.

    Great, but please pace yourself and don't strain anything. We don't want to put you on the inury list.

    Many thanks, R2K. Is there any reason why you skipped game 2?

    i believe he said that he didn't have the entire game(only one half IIRC), and it was a loss.

    Please do us a favor and refrain from using all caps in your posts. It is like screaming when you post like that on a message board.

    Game 3 comments:

    Unlike Game 1, this one was fun to watch. The enthusiasm of the Knicks fans was awesome! Many clutch plays near the end by both teams.

    Dream and Ewing were like two super gladiators slugging it out to exhaustion. It was clear Dream was the superior gladiator of the two. In short, Ewing could not score when Dream guarded him. Most of his baskets came on the break, when the defense switched up and someone else was on him or when he got open jumpers.

    Sam was a ballhog again, but he was clutch. Didn't remember that his late 3 pointer came with only 33 seconds left when we were down by 2. He also hit 2 FTs 11 seconds later and iced the game with 2 more at 2.4 seconds remaining. A couple of times Marv Albert mentioned about how "his (Sam's) teammates have really gotten on him" about his poor shot selection "but RudyT and the coaching staff" realize he brings a needed creativity to the Rockets' offense. He was also very slow, even as a rookie, especially compared to Kenny & Max who were lightening quick.

    We went on an 0-12 FG slump spanning the 3rd and 4th quarters that lasted 10:27. Of course it was Sam who broke it with a drive to the hoop and drawing the foul.

    Hakeem committed a very dumb foul on Starks with 3.9 seconds remaining that if Starks hit it, he would have tied the game and the FT could have given the Knicks the lead. Fortunately, fouling on a 3 pt shot only gave 2 FTs.

    Our starting backcourt was terrible in this series. There is no other way to describe it. Very turnover prone, poor decisions with both passes and shot selection. Kenny had no guts and Max was just off. Seeing us win a championship with Kenny and Max makes me more optimistic about the upcoming season with our guards. One thing they were that we are not now is very athletic. They had to be the fastest/quickest starting backcourt in the NBA back then.

    Even with this condensed video, the last 2:16 of the game lasted 10 minutes.

    R2K, awesome awesome awesome!!!

    yep...:(

    EAsy, if you want...after I finish the rest of the 94 and 95 Finals...I can post the incomplete game 2...but I didnt think anyone would miss it since it was a loss...and a ugly one IIRC.

    general note....

    game 3 is suffering from a severe lack of downloaders...only 85 so far..for reference...game 1 has had 515.

    I think I probably should start a new thread for each future one since it appears that folks arent checking this thread for the updates.

    Can somebody please tell me how to download this, or this works? I right-click on the link and then go to "save target as" and then it saves it less then a second. After trying to open it, the file will not open. What am I doing wrong? How does this work?

    Thanx

    The file that you downloaded is a BitTorrent file. It can be opened up by a BitTorrent client program, which in turn allows you to connect & download the file from people who seed the file and others who are downloading the file like you.

    I know that it's probably not the best one, but I use Azureus: http://azureus.sourceforge.net/download.php

    If you would like a better description, here is a site that R2K recommends: http://www.dessent.net/btfaq/
