Of course I’m talking about game 7, after the previous 3 I had thought for sure we had that game. What do you guys think? Would we have pulled off the impossible?

Sure do. If Tatum drops an efficient 35 in that game and puts pressure on Miami’s defense, I don’t think they had it in them to overcome it even WITH JB reverting back to high school level play and Caleb Martin playing like Klay Thompson.
The score of that game 7 was 103-84…what jumps out about that score? Even despite out of body performances by their role players, they only averaged 109 PPG for the series - exactly matching their NBA-low PPG in the season. I think they were on the ropes in that game 7 and if we had any way at all (JT doesn’t roll his ankle, JB remembers how to play basketball, Brogdon doesn’t have a busted ligament in his shooting arm) to put pressure on their defense, they would have cracked.
