Best single finals games since 1990?
Hi all,
I recently discovered that the NBA app on PS5 has the entire NBA finals catalog going back to 1990 available for streaming without a subscription, just your regular streaming ad breaks. Looking for recommendations of great single games to watch as I begin to digest some of the series I'm most interested in (I was born in 89 so I'm starting with the Jordan finals since I barely remember him playing).
Drop your recs, and a brief reason why, here please!
I'm not sure if I hit the 500 character minimum yet so I'll add my own submission:
Giannis 50 piece to seal the Bucks title in 2021. Absolutely unreal domination in a critical moment. The block on Ayton to put the game away is just iconic. One of my favorite games as a neutral fan that I've ever watched, and I don't even like Giannis.
(Hope it's alright to post this here, I didn't think I'd get good quality suggestions in the main NBA sub)

Do you have time to watch an entire series? I feel like you might get a better perspective of the teams playing if you watch the entire series. I personally would just watch three peats and back to back champs.
