    This play got me so excited. But alas, the crappy plays in OT :mad:

    the best part of the play was parson's hard cut to the basket. he would have had another follow dunk if the shot hadn't gone it. totally blows by jefferson. don't think anyone else on the team outside of lowry would have crashed the boards like that.

    Added a mix of Lowry's late threes -- one with just under a minute to go in the fourth and the other with 30 ticks left in OT that made it very interesting again.

    Lowry is really good at those clutch 3s. Its amazing how often he has hit those over the past 3 years.

    Lowry needs help, Scola too.

    They were gassed at the end...no lift....

    You could see them missing easy stuff they rarely miss...and turning it over and not playing their normal D.

    I think McHale overplayed them a bit tonight.

    You would think with all the b2b that McHale would have a deeper rotation. His rotation of 8 will not cut it in this season's schedule of b2b games.

    I remember even at the beginning of last year, before his 3pt shooting really took off, he'd hit the threes whenever he was under pressure, but not when he had an actual open shot.

    This ^ - I saw that too, he was flying up to the basket; most definitely would have finished it. What great instinct this kid has. He's a keeper.

    I don't know if I'm just a fanboy or what.

    Every time I see guys making plays like this, it sure gets me amped. I'm in Korea right now, but the next time I'm in the states, I'm definitely going to show some love to this team. Great call by coach in giving Parsons a shot. Love this kid!

    I love how in a season of suck, even something like a hard cut or almost put back could get our fans excited. :grin:
