One of the bummers of Vegas not winning was the moron who could have

sold his bet that they would win it all for almost 50% of the total payout before the finals. I think I heard about it at lunch sometime last year and thought, he should take the guaranteed money. Bird in hand is worth two in the bush. Then he didn't and his bet was soon worthless.

Could Toronto review goals back then? The problem now is that there are such

No. They didn’t have the system where they could stop the play and call it a good goal back then.

Yeah I'm ok with the outcome because it looked like a save in real time

Sure, but if it had been your team who would have won?

JohnnyComeLately

5/15/19 10:49pm

Yeah that was sports and you can't say they would have won, only that they

Ok sorry they would have been up with 5 min left in the third with the goalie who had just

Lol. That's nice, too bad that goalie didn't do as good in the Finals as he did

Lol. Nice if only Russell had played better defense against Jordan.

So, you wouldn’t have been mad at all if that was your team? You’d just laugh it

5/15/19 11:04pm

Did you miss the part that I think Jazz fans are lame that they complain about

palangi

Did you miss the part I said I’m not angry over it?

same clear point all along, anyone mad needs to get over it

palangi

5/16/19 12:04am

Okay, but I would still say this is a bit different. If the goal had counted

5/15/19 11:30pm

Jazz would've had a game 7 at home, that is very close to winning the ship

Thanks for sorting this all out for us!
