5-30-1991. POR at LAL, WCFs, Game 6. Clincher. (Good GAWD, this one was a pain in the arse, wow, PAL format NBA product I had to form into US standards and full of probs. I do this FOR YOU, my beloved fans!!). This game contains Magic's iconic and brilliant roll out to milk out the clock. I've never seen that play done before or after this example and this was to end a Conf Finals series and send a team to The Finals. Amazing. Clock operator was confused like everyone else and he accidentally stopped and restarted the clock during the rollout. This gave the opportunity for Chick and Dick Enberg to discuss the brilliance of the play as there was 1/10th of a sec left instead of triple zeros with people goin, "HUH?!" That 1/10th made all the diff.

Blazers of 90-92 were called chokers to their ire. I think that was partly to blame, but also Clyde wasn't a superstar on par w/ Isiah (near superstar if not real one, 1990), Magic (1991), and Mike (1992).
