Awesome. I'd say that'll end up being one of the top buzzer beaters of the season.

Better than Durant? Ellis? Anthony?

Yes, i don't even think Durant is that great a scorer, and when i say scorer, i mean SKILL not ppg. Dwade led the league in scoring last season but he isn't that skilled. I say yes Paul Pierce is better than Durant, Eliis and Anthony. If you ask for my top 5 scorers list(SKILL being my point of emphasis.
1. Kobe
2. Paul Pierce
3. LeBRon(They may or maynot be some bias here)
4. Pau Gasol
5. TOO many names come to mind including Carmelo so idk

Dwade led the league in scoring last season but he isn't that skilled.

That would actually be Durant.

I meant the season before

Sorry to go a a bit off topic, but how is Pierce a more skilled scorer then Wade? And LeBron, Durant for that matter.

Because Wade LeBron and Durant score because they are so athletic/have an advantage cuz of their body type(Not that that's a bad thing) and i'm not saying they are not skilled(far from it, Kevin Durant is like 6'10'' and shoots like a pg, LeBron's jumpshot has gotten better with every season and his midrange shot is definitely much more reliable than his early seasons) but Paul Pierce is more "athletically challenged" isn't one of the fastest or quickest player but he has crazy footwork, an array of offensive moves without all that effort. And as far as numbers go, he scored 26-25 ppg for a while before the big 3 came together.

Fixed, and I agree...Wade and Durant is definitely more skilled than Paul Pierce, who's biggest skill is to act like he has a season ending injury

btw, Lebron still can't shoot. Period.

Fair enough, that'd be the season before last then. That was indeed Wade.

Hmmm, are you on a debate team? Cause i totally think you should join one if you're not. O.O
BTW Dwade shot less than 30% for 3pts last season. Period.
BTW LeBRon shot a better percentage than Kobe for 3pts last season. Period.

I honestly don't know why people look at only numbers, i mean Kobe who is the most skilled scorer in the NBA right now, by a looooooooong shot hasn't been the league leader in points for a while now, so why would u think cuz someone is the league leader in pts they are the best scorer? KD leads the league in scoring because the only other offensive threat on OKC is Westbrook so they both have to score a lot. Paul Pierce was scoring 26 pts a game but when the big 3 came along, it droped to 18-20. LeBron and Dwade scored damn near 30 per game, but now it dropped to 25 each, Kobe was scoring 35 a game when he was the only one(cuz hes such a ball hog lol) but now it's like 27(still high compared to the amount of talent on his team......cuz hes a ball hog lol) so when OKC gets more scorers on the team, KD and Westbrook's point will def drop, not cuz they suck but because they have to share the scoring load. Kd is young, and obviously has a lot of talent and will be one of the bests scorers in the game in the short future, but not right now.

Added to my Favorites. In the hope that one day my grandkids will see that glorious moment.

That double flop is both hilarious and shameful.

that's awesome

Today I just watched NBA Live (international version of NBA TV Daily), they described Pacers-Bulls match perfectly (!) showing 3 positions: Taj Gibson's injury, Ronnie Brewer's dunk and suspension of Jim O'Brien. Oh well, I couldn't understand anything about stats.

In gif form:

Saved!

Joel Anthony had a huge block on Kevin Durant's dunk, but it wasn't shown anywhere. Not in the recaps, not even a replay during the broadcast. I'll get a video up later, it was massive.

That floppers video was great. Manu, Raja and Varejao should fight for a loose ball, that be something.

Grant Hill with the game winning .. goaltending

Hill definitely got away with one there. Perhaps that's something else they could add to instant replay reviews, maybe just for the last minute or 30 seconds of the game.
