[@dumisatonyjohnson8145]

Miami reaches the number one seed in the East But lose to the New York Knickerbockers in 5 games in the 1999 Eastern Conference Quarterfinals (NY shooting guard Allan Houston scores a game winning shot at the American Airlines Arena, Miami,FL 🏟 🌴 ☀️ 🏀)

i did do and will rank three elite teams in this EXACT order #1 1997 heat #2 1999 knicks and #3 2000 knicks and superstar describes alonzo mourning and patrick ewing

[@master-kq3nw]

in this season only 50 games. heat was good team that season

[@youtuber3328]

most importantly the heat lost in the first round while the knicks went to the finals and alonzo mourning and patrick ewing weren't as elite as superstars walt frazier dave debusscherre and willis reed

One of the greatest shots ever!

[@dumisatonyjohnson8145]

In my opinion Alonzo Mourning should have been the most valuable player not Karl Malone of the jazz

[@Sahluful]

The Spurs also went against the piss-poor Bucks, the mediocre Trail Blazers and the struggling Lakers. None of those teams had posed that much of a challenge to San Antonio, same with New York.

[@BeholdtheTruthBrandon]

Serocco how can the Spurs play the Bucks in the playoffs? Bucks play in the east Spurs play in the west

[@malcolmxavierjamesgumbs1993]

@@BeholdtheTruthBrandon that’s was Kevin Garnett and the young Minnesota Timberwolves in The first round in Western Conference Playoffs that The San Antonio Spurs were playing in 1999.

[@ronniecollier3804]

That's a shame that Heat got sent home early with game 5 loss in the first round of the playoffs

[@guts2k3]

one of the reasons why i hate the knicks so much haha especially sprewell. a real dagger but hey, at least mourning was able to taste a championship :)

[@greglakay]

If only they caught Houston's travel, 1,2,3. or called the out of bounds Miami ball on that last dead ball... The Heat would have probably won their first championship.

[@Sahluful]

I wish the Heat defeated the Knicks in 1999 and made it to the Finals. I'm positive we would've beaten the Spurs by then.

alonzo mourning george gervin and patrick ewing weren't as elite as superstars walt frazier dave debusscherre and willis reed

[@305Gladiator]

I remember that shot....Lord knows I remember that shot....smh

[@teddyjun1]

Was replay available in 1999? I wonder?

[@savedbythebellnascar]

wait the bucks are piss poor then really dont hate them now

[@cbnunya]

@kazam92 nah i think it would have been a 6-game or 7-game series either way with the spurs winning. at the time the spurs had the "twin towers" duncan and robinson. plus they had the best record: 37-13. while miami had 33-17.

[@garythompson9241]

I really 2x hate David Robinson cuz he's an extreme christian I love Alonzo and Patrick and hardly care who wins but those two have to play well to satisfy me the I don't care if Mia lost 95 to 75 in game 1 Alonzo had 27 points and eight rebounds so I'm satisgied
