Rank the Wildcats Grand Final wins

No worries.

That James Crawford slam in the 3rd Quarter from under the basket from a Ricky Grace bounce pass.. unexpected. The guy was feeling it that afternoon. Legend.

That and Stewie finally getting a basket were the best moments out of so many good ones that game.

Yep, Game 1 was in Perth, was there.

Game 2 was in Melb and Vlahov got fired up after seeing celebratory decorations, etc at halftime and Stokesey had a word or two to the team I think. The next 6 quarters was HISTORY.

Watching Game 3 that Sunday was the best memory of the "Big 4" Wildcats and the Glory Days. What a moment.

you clearly weren't there because game 1 was a home loss that suddenly made the series advantage giants and made game 3 all the more sweet

'95 was so so sweet. After game 2 the series went back to melbourne and the media were already talking up a Giants championship

Not quite. Games 2 & 3 were at the Entertainment Centre in Perth, I was there for both. Big party outside afterwards.
One of the Giants admitted later that after two close games, they let the game 2 loss do their heads in, and were basically mentally defeated before they even stepped on the court for game 3.
Cats absolutely smashed them in the first quarter, and they never recovered.

'Loved the 09 grand final and the awesome party afterwards at Challenge.

Yep I was there. Good times.

Also learned from Lachie Reed that night that we were signing Matt Knight

Maybe he meant "revenge on the NBL Salary cap"?
Because the league forced us to cut TT, then allowed the Giants Giants to completely shred the Cap.
(Then handed them a massive fine, then forgave the fine because they had no money left.)

Besides, revenge for '93, would just mean punching the shit out of Ray Gordon, and I'm sure numerous people have already done that.

'We took revenge on the Giants because the Tigers beat us in 93?'

Ok well redemption

I balled my little eyes out at the 93 loss but then 95 came around and I was so very happy :)

1. I loved 95, mostly because the final game was such an ass-whooping. After two close games, we blew the Giants off the court in the first quarter and they never recovered. We ran most of the last quarter with the Bench. It was also great because that got as the opportunity to go to London and play in the McDonalds championship, where we beat Real Madrid.

2. Last Season was pretty sweet. After losing so many series to the Breakers, it was awesome to finally get one back. Yeah, the game itself was uggo, with both teams out on their feet, but we got it done.

Well, you know what they say: Revenge is a dish best served to whoever happens to be in the vicinity at the time.
I do agree that 2016 was a bit meh. Relatively speaking.
