Was watching that triple overtime Bulls/Nets game Saturday and witnessed a very seldom noticed stat that must have at least tied an NBA record! Right before Nate Robinson fouled out.....he took 3 shots in less than 5 seconds!!! Missed them all, of course.....but it was entertaining! He shot the ball, Bull's rebounded and threw it right back to him.....he shot it again without moving an inch, missed again. Bulls rebounded and threw it right back to him again! Never twitched a muscle and launched another shot! He missed all three shots, but had to have set or at least tied Allen Iverson's record for most shots in the least amount of time! After he fouled out, I called my buddy in Chicago and told him it was a "blessing in disguise" as now the Bull's would be able to slow it down a bit and set up a play or two in the next overtime and actually score! Sure enough, they executed beautifully on a couple of plays during that last overtime....and took out the Nets for a commanding 3 games to 1 lead!
