2013 Heat LOSE 2-4

Re: 5 most important shots since the Jordan era
Technically without Dirk's 2011 shot they'd still be tied but the Mavs needed all his shots anyway. Originally Posted by ArbitraryWater

At least with Artest's shot in 2010 it's still tied and they go to OT. Also, with 2013 Miami it was Game 1 so still early in the series - all the others are either late in the series or prevented a huge series lead.Last edited by Thorn; 08-15-2014 at 04:16 PM.

True, but I didn't add them because ultimately they didn't become Champins, but lost in the Finals... Originally Posted by Thorn

HUGE shot.

Re: 5 most important shots since the Jordan era
Ah okay. For what's it worth I think the 06 Spurs would've won vs Miami - no way Wade goes off like that against Bowen and Duncan at the rim. Originally Posted by ArbitraryWater

Re: 5 most important shots since the Jordan era
Someone check the stats but I think Kobe made more than five shots. Not sure though, I know he usually misses. Originally Posted by dreamwarrior

I forget how hard Derek Fisher and Robert Horry carried Kobe.
