You're not giving the play tonight nearly enough credit. Down 1 he has the knowledge to drive for the rebound, grabs the ball with 0.5 left and it's off his hand with 0.1 left to take the lead and avoid elimination.
The shot over Embid is nice (Simmonds doesn't contest it TBH) and maybe a bit harder from a degree of difficulty perspective but I actually think the play tonight was just as remarkable.
Game 7 buzzer beaters are rare for sure...but I'm not sure I've ever seen an offensive rebound and put back with 0.5 seconds left to avoid elimination...so it's just as if not more rare.

Of course it was a great play, it is still no where close in difficulty and won’t be remembered if they do not close it out. No one boxed him out and fell perfectly to him. Great hustle play but not close in my opinion. Fantastic game, i do not care who wins. Both getting beat by Denver
