    Standing in front of my TV, hopping around my livingroom, clapping, yelling, whooping and hollering, definitely waking up my family a few times. lol

    and posting every now and then on the GARM. couldn't post during the comeback though. i was standing in front of my tv going nuts.

    my wife was in the bedroom with my son asleep. she said she heard the commotion, and flipped on the TV in there to watch the comeback.

    At work, we had a TV. Watched the entire first three quarters at my desk. Then when the 4th quarter started I kept saying "We have to win this quarter by 14, or our season is over." I moved seats and sat next to a work friend and watched the entire 4th quarter on a bigger TV. We were going crazy. I kept screaming at McHale to put Harden back in lol. And then once it was clear that he wasn't coming back and the Rockets were dominating. I was like "James Harden gave all his powers to the 5 guys on the court."...the best moment was when we were up 108-102 and Josh Smith hit a step back 3 over DJ, I shouted at the top of my lungs "It's James Harden in Josh Smith's body!!!!"...and when JET made a 3 with 16 seconds left I shouted "He's making that!" right as it left his hand!!

    Unbelievable night.

    Sidenote: That was the same TV I watched the Auburn/Alabama FG return as time expired from 2 years ago

    So what you're saying is that you quit playing xbox to watch the game.

    Sitting at home, you're completely disconnected from the team. Whether you are watching it in TV or playing Xbox doesn't matter. So I wouldn't call it "quitting".

    If you were a fan at the arena and you left early, that could be called quitting.

    I was watching the game.

    Terry said something about it, about how Jones made some plays and got it down to 13. 13 points with a full lead is nothing in the NBA. So I still had hope. I thought we'd get it down to 5 or something and battle hard to get over that hump. Never expected them to completely turn it around to where the clippers had to come back from the come back.

    My living room, Austin, Texas - When I saw Jones steal that inbounds pass and then diving after loose balls I said screw it I'm all in, then it happened.
