Hopefully.

I'm watching with my friend tonight and the team we root for just about always loses when we watch games together.

(Though this year they did win Game 2 against Milwaukee).
Sounds like me when I go watch games in person. Ironically that streak was broken this past Bears season.

I'm hit or miss with in person games. I've only gone to 2 games in the last 3 years though. A Hawks game (loss) and I went to a Bulls game in 2012-13 (loss)... Before that I went to 3 Bulls games during the shortened season and the Bulls won them all.

Q5 01:37.0 Turnover: Traveling LeBron James INCJames (CLE) moves his pivot foot.C

Q5 01:37.0 Foul: Shooting Andre Iguodala LeBron James INCIguodala (GSW) makes contact with James' (CLE) arm on his shot attempt.


So yes, NBA agrees LeBron traveled before the foul.

As far as incorrect calls..Cleveland had 3 go against them and only 1 in their favor. Two of them involved jump balls (Start of OT and jump ball between Green/LeBron).. Green fouled on both jump balls.

Before this past year I hadn't been to a game in like 6 years lol. I remember all the games I've been to though the year and outcome gets fuzzier as I try to remember.

Cubs vs someone ~2002? I have no idea if we won or lost, but I think we lost. I just remember leaving in the 7th inning because the girls in my family wouldn't have any more of it.
Bulls vs Celtics ~2006? Lost. Nocioni got ejected this game. Possibly Perkins as well.
Bulls vs Mavs ~2007? Lost. I only remember this game because I got seats behind the basket and could wave all that stuff around while guys were shooting free throws. They wore some ugly old red and blue uniforms for this game because of some anniversary thing.
Bulls vs Thunder ~2009 Lost. Thunder weren't even good back then. My memory from this game: Larry Hughes blowing a 2 on 1 fastbreak.
White Sox vs someone. This year. Lost. Yay work paid for our tickets
Bears vs Bucs. This year. WIN! I've never seen a win with less than 200 yards of total offense.

What a great track record I have.

That Mavs game had to be in 07-08 maybe? I know the Bulls won in 06-07 at home.

It's official you need season tickets to the bears games and don't ever step foot into the United Center again

If someone wants to hook me up with season tickets for Bears games I'll see if I can lead the team to 16-0 lol. I have not been to the United Center since that last loss to the Thunder so...

Google tells me 2006. Ahh Mike Sweetney is there.
Wasn't too far off lol. I remember Adrian Griffin playing in that game as well. I think he was on the Mavs that year and I think he missed a free throw at the end of the game while I was frantically waving my brick sign. The game, unfortunately, had already been decided by then though.

Yeah, I accidently bought tickets to 2 games on stubhub in Jan 2012..instead of trying to resell them just decided to go to both games... then a few days later my friend offered me to go with him to the March game.. which was against Indy. Brian Scalabrine got an appearance.

How does one accidentally buy tickets to 2 games?

If I recall.. I was going with a particular friend of mine and selected the wrong game he couldn't go to. And didn't realize it until I already purchased it.

Yep. Warriors offense looks disrupted by Cleveland's defense. GS D is keeping them in it but you just can't stop Lebron when he drives.
