Grange said that she wasn't formally interviewed beyond the initial conversation stage and didn't want to leave her WNBA position.

Jimmy Butler getting absolutely cooked. Another good player who talks so much to make himself better than he is.

Not even ####ing close to being better. It was a put back in game 6, Kawhi’s was a fade away 3 on the baseline with two all league defensive guys in his face with 4 insane bounces in game 7.

It's pretty close TBH. A rebound and put back down 1 with 0.5 seconds left is an even bigger play.
Kawhi misses and it goes to OT, that doesn't happen and the Celtics are done.

It was a uncontested put back compared to a contested fade away 3 pointer. One was absurdly more difficult to pull off but sure.

Ya? No one picked him up, it was a a very clutch play but its no where close to the Kawhi shot. Shot over a Double team vs two of the best defensive players in the league, do you know who they are?

If he didn't get that Boston is out. Kawhi misses and it goes to OT.

Both shots win the game. Kawhi’s shot won the series and is arguably one of the most memorable shots next to Jordans push off in league history. Game 7 buzzer beaters are exceedingly rare, look it up. Or not idc

Both are great to be honest and both are very difficult to pull off.
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
