First of all, how about Hedo Turkoglu??? He hits a game tying 3 and a go ahead drive to the lane, which if it didn't go in, would have been one of the most poorly conceived last possessions in NBA history.
Obviously if you're Turkoglu you have to play LeBron closer than you played him, but it was still a ridiculous shot. Even if the Cavs had lost this game, I still think they would have pushed it to game 6, but now you've got to think that they'll at least split in Orlando and get home court back again. And you've got to expect that Mo Williams is going to explode in a game eventually. He's too good to be held down much longer.
If the Lakers can take 1 of 2 in Denver, all is well and enough should be won psychologically for the Lakers that they will be in a good position to win game 5, regardless of what happens in the game that they lose in Denver. The Lakers WILL lose at least one in Denver.
Finally, check out this guy on the Cleveland bench. I'm honestly not sure who he is, but from checking the roster, I think he is rookie Darnell Jackson from the NCAA Champion Kansas Jayhawks....
...and I think he's from the future.
1. Here's Darnell when LeBron puts up the shot. He cooly puts his arm up.
2. Here's Darnell as the shot goes in. He snaps his wrist in a "count the basket and the foul" motion. He is cool as can be and if you'll notice his left hand is in his pocket.
3. Mayhem surrounds Darnell, but he is still cool and composed, and his hand is still in his pocket.
4. You'll notice that people have now run past Darnell to embrace LeBron.
5. Finally here is Darnell as he watches LeBron mobbed by his teammates, and his hand is STILL IN HIS POCKET!!!!!!!!!!. What does he have in there, a Willy Wonka Golden Ticket?!?!?!
It's like he knew this was gonna happen. It's like he's from....the FUTURE!!!
