For me it has to be the race for 8th, as our 8 game schedule was very tough and with the Suns finishing 8 & 0. We lost the 3 start up game's which left me a bit concerned too.
Of course within the race for there were crazy games by Dame, the emergence of GTjr. and Nurk not getting hurt.
Dame putting us on his back and willing us to the 8th seed putting up numbers only put up by Wilt in history....that was worth the price of admission. Having Trent and Gabriel playing defense against Lebron and AD....you can't buy that kind of experience for guys who are 20 years old in a playoff setting
