    I can't get mad about a finish like that.

    Nah, not at all, it was awesome. Finishes like that and stories behind it like Russell's tonight are a big part of what makes sports so great.

    Mad? We're already out of contention for the Top 2 bottom records. What's there to be mad about winning a game?

    The kid still can't buy a drink. Put that into perspective again. He has so much growing to do as a player and person, and although his development may not have been straight up, his talent and upside are still at a high level.

    Not to mention, he played through the loss of a family member. Lebron can't even play with a breath to his neck, the kid goes out and pulls a game winner in a difficult situation.

    I'm not rooting for it anymore but we weren't out of contention with Pho win earlier, if they win the last gm and la lost the last 3 (including tonights gm), la could've secured #2. As it stands though it could still end in a tie with Pho winning their last gm and la losing their last 2 but whatever happens happens

    Grandma looking out. Great moment after hitting the shot and running into the stands to find his older brothers that live with him.

    Best part of this clip bar none is when Metta calls for the ball again at the 47-second mark after he bricked the 1st shot. #GOAT

    DAR actually made 3 excellent plays in that finish. He drove to the basket and drew defenders, freeing Metta in the corner, which is as good a look as you can hope for in that kind of a situation. Then he sneaked out of the paint to 3pt line. And finally -- he made the shot.
