Watching Liillard nail that shot with .9 seconds was a thing of beauty...reminded me of another all time great buzzer beating shot by a legendary Jazzman. What a soul crushing loss for Rockets fans...I love it!
 
A buzzer beater to eliminate a team from the playoffs happened only 4 or 5 times in the NBA, 2 of those times it was a point guard with ties to Utah sending the Rockets home. Gotta love it.
 
What's even more funny is that Harden told Parsons to switch onto Lillard. He pretty much cost them the game. HAHAHHAHAA, Parsons probably wishes he help the ball just a little longer too.

Trey Burke is soon to follow.
 
LOL...here's some of my favorites:

"Well that's it, where's my gun at?"

"welp im going to walking in front of a train"

"I am just going to give up being a fan. The heartbreak to victory ratio is just too lopsided."

"im a grown *** man and everyone is looking at me crying
This is whats its been like to be a rockets fan for the last 10 plus years."

"i just died."

AND THE BEST ONE:

"It's John Stockton 1997 all over again!!!"
 
Amazing shot by Lillard. Once he started running, you just knew what was gonna happen. Can't believe the Rockets didn't switch (or put Beverly on him). He was the 1st option in clutch time all season long for the Blazers. What the hell were they thinking?
 
There is a video in clutchfans. I think Harden told Chandler and Patrick to switch.

Defensive mastermind without doubt!

^^ That's the worst inbound pass defending I've ever seen in basketball.
 
I don't blame Parsons. He was just a bit late coming around the screen and he didn't commit to running at Lillard, probably so he didn't get faked or commit a foul.

Yeah, the defense on the inbounder was pretty soft. Not sure what that was about.
 
Lmao reading the countless posts where cluchfansers are so excited that there is 0.9 seconds left with a foul to give. There was like 15 posts of this, and I'm like wtf!!! You know it's a catch and shoot situation right?!?!?!
 
I heard on the radio that it was the first buzzer beating series ending shot in 17 years. That makes the John Stockton shot the last time it happened.
 
There have only been 4 buzzer beaters to end a series according to ESPN. Lillard, Stockton, Jordan in 89, and Ralph Sampson in 86 it think it was.
