THIS GAME: Fairfield’s come-from-behind win over Argyle

At some point in the fourth quarter of Saturday’s 4A state championship game between Fairfield and Argyle, I started sending all of my live tweets in all-caps, because what had started out as a dominant Argyle performance had shifted, and as Fairfield’s relentless press started to ease them back into the game, it became clear that this wasn’t just a normal basketball game. This had become a certified "THIS. GAME." game.

You know that kind of game, the kind where every play feels like it will change everything, where the crowds on each side of the arena become a singular entity, a mass of screams after each moment so that you can’t even tell by the end who wants which team to win. It's a phrase you mutter to yourself every time something happens during it.
