Bulls vs Celtics Game 6 3OT AMAZING!!! 2009 NBA Playoffs - Jalen Rose on ESPN

[@41mavsrule]

Best playoff series/game in recent memory

[@hadychahine6027]

This comment was 6 months ago, but how about that Clippers-Spurs series?

[@hebzarb]

This was miles better than Spurs-Clippers, sorry. This was legendary

[@41mavsrule]

Yeah this was better but Spurs-Clippers was still good

[@stefp8087]

1Bullsrule1 Nah. Best series is 2013 Finals - Heat vs Spurs.

[@vincentflores1168]

Heat vs Spurs 2013 better

[@andyk4621]

I can't believe this game was 7 years ago...I was at this game

[@kevinsullwold2388]

Yeah that is nuts how it was that long ago; I remember it very well, one of the best playoff games I've seen.

[@razkable]

One of the best series eher played..2 even teams that didn't want to go home

[@marklawrence76]

@@kevinsullwold2388 I wasn't there....BUT I DIDNT LEAVE MY TV 💪💪💯

[@BBraich05]

this was 11 years ago

[@flipsum210]

12 years now

[@2Phaktz]

Ray with those corner fall aside threes is lethal.

[@razkable]

best ray allen game ever most points in a playoff game since the mid 90's cray how about this his 51 and brons 49 against Orlando that year to stave off elimination is 100 that's how much wilt scored in one game I thought ray mad 40 shots in this game I can't imagine watching wilt dominate like that I would lose my mind

[@brandon4522]

what happened to these kind of playoff games? it seems every playoff game is a blow out recently

[@sosavage8507]

Thats what happens when you let teams stack up from free agency!

[@mastermillz8486]

celtics were the first big 3

[@razkable]

yep...until game 7 of the finals...i forgot how it felt to have pressure close playoff games in the final 2 minutes until game 7 of the finals brought those memories back...i didnt know how to feel it was weird... sweet basketball...i miss it already ....the warriors thunder series was close in games 5-7 until the last 4 minutes it felt ...the spurs thunder was a good series late but mostly mistakes not clutch shooting...but yeah portland golden state was really fun...

[@mohmmdkhn4409]

+master millz no Bulls

[@theprodigyhq9871]

Game 3 of this Celtics bulls series tho. Blowout

[@MasamuneIceDragon]

This was such a great series.

[@FearDoe]

Wow I have so much respect for doc rivers he said it was his teams fault for the altercation, when he couldve easily blamed the bulls

[@awsnapz11]

The joakim noah steal and slam: my favorite joakim noah moment ever.

[@marcuslopez9373]

the bulls showed a lot of heart and determination! Ben Gordon was balling this series! I miss this baby bulls team! I love being a bulls fan! bulls fan for life! bulls nation!!!!!!!!!!

[@losoclay8301]

Marcus Lopez with a pulled hamstring going toe to toe with ray Allen 🐐🤧

[@TheMCRen]

back then big baby, perkins and ben gordon were solid nba players

[@nikeettg5613]

my nigga joakim was ballin back then!!! miss that heart, energy and hustle he brought to the team.

[@gorrow1990]

Still an all time epic series. Sad to see how much the quality of the first round has truly declined now. Too many blowouts and completely lopsided matchups.

[@fredsavage3565]

there are 2 reason this series was such a battle. No.1 Kevin Garnett was out the whole series with an injury and Boston had no depth at his posistion, So bulls are coming in thinking they can win, Meanwhile Boston not only is hungry for a repeat but how embarrassing would it be to lose in 1st round? No.2 Ben Gordon was in a contract year, He played his ass off because he wanted to get payed and because of this series the pistons gave him one of the worst contracts of all-time.

[@ONLYreaction3]

the worst thing about this is watching Kg's face knowing how badddddd he wanted to play

[@amiyou24]

Pizzy ONLY rondoooooo thoo

[@chrisconnor5418]

one of my favorite series of all time

[@lorellforbes2724]

Celtics won the series even though I wanted the bulls to win best playoff series in NBA history 2009

[@razkable]

the amount of ots if deng plays Chicago wins but this was the most evenly matched teams I ever saw for a 6 game sample out of 7 game 3 was terrible so was the 4th quarter in game 7 for Chicago but other than that you take kg who is more important off boston you take deng off Chicago and you have the same teams basically also this series made ben Gordon so overpaid and lazy he ruined his career by playing ell being paid and then getting fat and going to detroit for no reason with him rose noah they had a big three and a bunch of good role players deng hinrich Gibson miller salmons tyrus Thomas they had a bright future they miss his tough shot making clutch gene and salmons dribbling

[@razkable]

I.think.america.wanted the bulls to win this series..they.earned it and wanted it..you could see it..

[@losoclay8301]

Shid they cheated a lot of them should’ve been ejected especially rondo they Celtics was playing dirty u seen the crybaby all in them

[@alexdeschenes243]

Ben Gordon had an incredible series. He absolutely killed us.

[@fortyforfree]

He let it all go to his head, left us for money and was never same. He would have been nice with a mvp rose

[@razkable]

ray allen vs ben gordon was nuts lol especially in games 4-6 lol..they were both hitting so many tough jumpers ...clutch plays...this should have been the nba finals....this series and the mavs spurs in 2006 are the 2 series i use when people talk about great series!....every game mattered....no blowouts....most nba series are overrated....i dont think people remember most of them but i will always love this series and the 2006 mavs spurs....wish game 7 was closer but oh well...

[@losoclay8301]

Crazy bc Ben Gordon was playing with a pulled hamstring

[@AsianZing2397]

jalen says a lotta weird shit. "shooting out of a phonebooth?!" wtf lol

[@dukefan8674]

Shooting out of a phone booth means that you have a straight up and down shot and have proper arc. Some people shoot with more of a push shot (Shawn Marion) and would not be able to shoot out of a phone booth.

[@Jimmaynewyen]

Too bad this series was a 1st round series. Would've been so epic if it was the ECF

[@razkable]

it would have been better had kg and deng played lol

[@Jimmaynewyen]

Definitely can agree with that.

[@tmac731]

Asmosis Jones I forgot kg and deng didn’t play in this series

[@justinpettit3432]

Best playoff series I've ever seen.

[@kant5696]

This series doesn’t get enough credit cause it was in the first round. Rookie d rose, young rondo, this series was classic

[@IvoryNerva]

So fun to watch, but best part is Jalen Rose (who I love) saying "oh...heroically" when asked how bad Kevin Garnett wants to be playing.

[@razkable]

this was more entertaining then the finals or any game or series tha year lol

[@eriaserias1955]

My favorite NBA game and series of all time

[@ianbenjaminii987]

best series ever

[@OfficerInfusion]

Been a year and this series is still the one that I remember the most. 7 overtimes total, fun.

[@jaybrick8973]

how they let salmons score 35 on them lol

[@grandmasboy872]

how you let ray score 51

[@razkable]

oh snap!.....got them!,...idiots back then salmons and ray were great an it was 3 ot...someones gonna score

[@idkwt2use]

salmons was actually pretty darn solid back then

[@keydg96]

Salmons was nice

[@bertovicuna9995]

Idiot. Salmons was a beast in his prime years, very descent scorer.

[@dancrews7769]

GREATEST SERIES EVER! This is also my favorite Bulls team

[@WuTangFan1000]

this series.. WOW ! one of the best all time, if not the BEST

[@bigdatrap]

This was the greatest playoff series of all time..... i dont think we will ever see one like this again......

[@roshananderson]

scal with the greatest timeout call in history

[@zach4111]

Best playoff series i ever seen! I remember watching it and wanting it never to end!

[@skate4life1616]

ben gordan used to be so good

[@razkable]

then he got paid so was tyrus Thomas then he got paid that's why you never know when you make less your more hungry to win

[@A.34MEBOS]

Gordon*

[@8Baller1000]

razkable its a shame they only try to get contract, wheres the love for the game!!! Having love for money not a bad thing but still show some love for the game!! FFS

[@razkable]

As a heat fan Ben Gordon terrified me..I saw in 2006 2007 what he could do in a playoff series up close...deadly clutch..and 2009 was mj like..and tyrus Thomas after this 2009 playoff run I really believed was gonna become at least what taj Gibson became..a solid starter..I believed he would one day be a star...I was wrong..he should of gone to college..dude had no skills..he was all effort and when he didn't have energy or effort he was useless ..kg would of made him his bitch in this series...sorta.wish that bulls team had a healthy deng to go with rose salmons gordon Noah miller hinrich tyrusThomas ....that bulls squad was loaded...

[@charlesamofordjuoh9940]

Man this series had so much energy. I remember staying up all night watching this series.

[@jaydanfort]

is there anyway where i could watch this series?? one of the best series of all time, ive been googling for ages i cant find the FULL 7 games anywhere

[@razkable]

don't watch game 3 it sucked hard lol game 6 4 and 2 are epic as hell finals intensity pressure clutch plays everywhere it wasn't a series where oh they scored 76 and we had 77 and we made 10 fts more and they missed 15 so we won ugly no this series had huge moments like guys wanted to win every game lead changes all through the 4th late like 3 game winners in one 10 second span in game 4 i'm not lying all but other than 3 that game Chicago layed down early

[@chicken2823]

One of the best playoff series of all time.

[@ChroniclerOfJudah]

ben gordon was 92 jordan in this series lmao

[@eustass4491]

This series had me on the edge of my seats i miss series like this

[@pedrodiaz534]

5:38 Noah

[@fazijslive]

+Pedro Diaz Every time I think about Noah, that image is in my head. Love that guy, real warrior!

[@camdensmoot4596]

I remember watching this game 7 years ago so relieved after Bulls win

[@TB-gp7kx]

Would've been a top 10 all time playoff series if it wasn't played in the first round.

[@arunmac11]

+Tim B I don't see how it can't be top 10. A veteran team that's a two seed against a young and hungry seven seed going at it with multiple ties, lead changes, and overtimes.

[@laurengaston2773]

I was there!!! best game i ever went to!!!

[@pattersonb51795]

rondo with his headband upside down at 1:14 lol

[@cwd8810]

Yea, that's what he always use to do. He did it by accident one game and performed really well and Rondo is apparently extremely superstitious so he just kept doing it till the league told him he couldn't anymore.

[@bigsmokiee55]

One of the greatest seasons I’ve ever seen. I can remember where I was watching this. Watched it at my buddy Lamar’s house. Got some pizza now with some 2 liter sodas. Whole squad was there going wild. Basketball’s amazing

[@AutomaticMamba]

idk how celtics lost in 2009 and 2010 man they shouldve won

[@123rockstar2010]

Kevin Garnett was injured in 09, and Perkins was injured in 10. Chemistry was shattered.

[@ISLaughTyI]

lost Garnett for playoffs in '09. Lost Perkins during finals in '10. Oh the "what ifs."

[@shyshka_]

Kobe Bryant)

[@s_pick420]

фкегк игкфл Celtics took on kobe 4-2 and then took him to game 7 without perkins.

[@IvoryNerva]

Kneefur You, know there was a whole Lakers team, not just Kobe Bryant.

[@mrshizno91]

i remember watching this game the entire way, tnt had the rockets vs the blazers after this game but this game went on for so long that it didnt end until halftime of the rockets/blazers game.....best game ive ever seen

[@jieshengtang5783]

White mamba playing

[@pharaohford1981]

I remember being tuned into this series....the best series ive ever watched even tho we lost

[@davd1986]

Epic series! The way things are going for the Bulls right now, it would take a miracle for them to even make the playoffs, let alone have a chance to advance to the second round, real shame Noah got injured when they were starting to play real good again. This last game w/Jazz was a real indicator of how their games have been going, hang in until the middle of the third quarter or the star of the fourth and then the wheels completely fall off. I will be happy if the Bulls make the playoffs.

[@alexomelanczuk3770]

Who’s here in 2019/20?!?

[@AsianZing2397]

thank you for your services Hinrich, Miller, Thomas, Salmons, Gordon & of course Vinny. y'all did good for da bulls

[@CaptainFalchion]

I remember watching this game with my dad, and man, this is one of the best playoff series ive ever watched, hands down.

[@Littledesi23]

My roommate just came in my room saying that he watched these highlights again because he went to this game, and it's something he never told me. He was so happy! It takes a game this memorable to do something like that!

[@renzzemistal]

A series for the ages and one that would be so unforgettable! The rise of D-Rose and the Celtics' Pride. Just like Jordan's unforgettable game against the Celtics in the 80s.

[@mesomelendez]

i was mad hyped on this series

[@nddavi58]

i remember watching this back in 09. i was a sophomore in college. the memories!!

[@fortyforfree]

Cot damn, I was sophomore in high school

[@mrguitarguygates]

Brad Miller was a beast in his day. Great to see him as an assistant coach with the Wolves, glad he can continue his career in the basketball world.

[@maigan007]

came here cause that blazers vs nuggets game 3 reminded me of this game🔥

[@reSpartan]

It's weird how Rose is very undependable from the line late in the game, but he hits a lot of game winning field goals.

[@tmj0431]

i cant believe i missed this i still watch today but there is NOTHING like watching a great game as it happens

[@Marly_Mar]

The Greatest Playoff series I've watched

[@Sham_TheGod3]

It hurt so bad to see Chicago lose this series

[@DirtySprite9]

my favourite playoff series of all-time.

[@CaptainCJ97]

This series is so good

[@Twan277]

Man what i great series to watch and i cant wait for game 7 2nite....its gonna be off the chain.....this would also be great if this was an nba finals series

[@almusavicomedy]

I too was at the this game..the players were so fatigued towards the end....the crowd was so fatigued just from cheering it was crazy...it was unbelievable only the second bulls game i've been to but it was awesome....ben gordon's last game at the united center....it was a win or go home...and when noah dunked it at the end you knew it was over

[@tinyeatworld]

one hell of a series, classic

[@davidlin89]

haven't seen a series this wild since the '16 heat raptors =P

[@WtfItzHuy]

Believe it or not this series got me hooked to NBA!

[@3912James]

Although my Bulls lost that series (eventually)....it was good to see the Celtics give mad props for the Bulls heart and determination during their post game conference. With the exception of Game 3.....it felt like a Rocky II movie.

[@garygreenburg9923]

this series would of been the Greatest Finals match up ever. hands down still the most exciting playoff series to this date

[@layziefngroovy]

this series was craaazzzzyyyy!!!! lal vs okc was a great series that year too.. or it might've been the following yr...

[@kylegrtf94]

Amazing series! Much much much more exciting than the NBA Finals that happened that year

[@ryryfergy3]

4:36 is one of my favorite plays. having a center almost go coast to coast in a foot race with pierce..amazing

[@TheBostonThreeParty1]

This series was unbelivable

[@24lakers24kobe]

I was there during that game. It was awsome. I remember the whole crowd swearing at rondo when kirk fought him.

[@Erizzzzle]

Such an awsome series.

[@johnpestano7077]

One of the best playoff series of the 00s

[@lawtzelap]

this game was friggin awesome
