What are 'Where Were You' games in NBA history?
Have we established what the hell Tony's talking about when he says, where were you games in NBA history? Where were you games in NBA history? Where are the where were you things in American history? Space shuttle exploding. Assassination attempts.
Washington's funeral.
First man on the moon. So you're saying five. You've got five. What's some oil I sprinkled? Last night was not.
that can't last night just be it was really cool it was you you believe you luca like lucas that seemed genuine last night but it's not like a i'm not gonna remember last night when like i'm like my grandkids you'll never uh luca he was he got teary-eyed that's a tell your grandkids moment that's a completely separate that's another list exactly but that's a where were you no it's the same list tell your grandkids in a where were you moment are the exact same thing not even the most memorable thing that happened in sports last thank you mike
Messi?
Yeah. Lionel Messi. Doing great things. Coming back from a crazy aggregate deficit. They lost the first leg at LAFC 1-0. And then in the first 10 minutes of that game last night, they went down 1-0. Which not only put them behind on aggregate 2-0, but it gave LAFC something that Inter-Miami hadn't had. which was a road goal.
How did Messi perform in the recent CONCACAF match?
So to win that game in advance of the semifinals of the CONCACAF Champions Cup, they needed to win that game against a good LAFC team 3-1. And I know Messi catches some crap sometimes because his style. He walks around. What's so hard? Not last night. 96 minutes of that dude trying his damnedest. All game long. That dude cared last night and he put that team on his shoulders. It was a wonderful game. Honestly, hand to God, Among the most fun soccer games I've experienced.
Where were you game?
I was on my couch.
There was a where were you game. That's a soccer. That's a different list. That's a completely different list. You know I love soccer. I'm a soccer sicko. This is a tell your grandkids game.
I'm a soccer sicko. There's something about this competition in particular, which is really difficult for American teams to win. It's been around since the 1960s. It's really mattered here in the United States for probably 30 years. And famously, Mexican teams always win it. It is really difficult to win this competition because, randomly, you'll have something that happened a couple of weeks ago, which is, in Miami and your whole team, you've got to go over to Jamaica and play on a rough pitch in weird conditions that you're not used to. It really challenges those MLS teams. This one was an MLS team against an MLS team, no doubt. A good MLS team against another good MLS team. I don't understand why he cared so much.
Doesn't that validate the naysayers that it's so palpable? It's like, oh, that's what that looks like when it's like you don't see that all the time.
No, I understand. And there was a really funny moment around like minute 94 where you're screaming at your TV. What are you guys doing? Just hold the ball. There was like a three-man weave of Jordi Alba, Luis Suarez, and Leo Messi. It's three on one. And they are gassed. They got it. Nothing. And in 2015, that would have been a surefire goal.
Why is Messi's performance still exceptional?
In 2025, it's just hilarious to watch when those guys are on fumes. But the effort was there all night. That is a massive undertaking. Yeah, they get lucky with a handball in the box that draws a pen. Messi takes a brilliant pen against Hugo Lloris.
And that's in the 86th minute, though, right?
Yeah, and keep in mind, Messi had contributed. He had scored on a free kick that they called back because he took it too quickly. And he had scored, he had assisted on a Luis Suarez header because Suarez was a bit offside. So he scored a wonderful goal, a goal that few people on the planet can still do right now with how he dribbled through traffic.
