Nazr's 3

[Big Pimp_21]

Was that the ugliest (made) three pointer you've ever seen. It looked like he started the shot from the back of his neck and tried to miss. Oh well...pad the stats. His 3 pt % will be tops for the spurs for the post season.

[vanvannen]

Man that was cool. He didn't even lift his feet from the ground.
Classic. :elephant

[Gtown]

shawn marion is a close second

[duncan2k5]

it bobbled around the rim forever. then it looked like it was gonna fall off the front, then it rolled in. lol. i was thinkin in my head if that was a game winning shot, that would be the longest 2 seconds ever (with the ball bounding everywhere)

[CosmicCowboy]

that was the first three of his career...only the fourth he has ever attempted...:lol

[sa_butta]

I got to say Bill Cartwright had the ugliest looking shot ever.

[bigbendbruisebrother]

I still can't believe it went in. I had already uttered, "YES!" and then, "Aw, damn Nazr," when the ball finally went in. It looked like the ball was being clumsily guided by someone sitting in the nosebleeds with a remote control and pair of binoculars.

[Ishta]

Great Job Nazr!!!

[alamo50]

And than he appologized to the bench for making that shot!

:lol

[MadDog73]

It was like he shot it purposely to take more time off the clock.... :D

[GrandeDavid]

Jurgen, how's the stay in Phat Antonio been?

[drivanroca]

I think that shot is art.

NAZR = MANUTE BOL?

;-)

[nkdlunch]

It made me jump out of my seat. and I'm a lazy mofo...

[Lonestar]

I don't think I've ever seen anybody try harder to MISS a shot. Classic!

[bigbendbruisebrother]

I watched it again over lunch. The physics of that shot were really bizzare. For those of you who missed it, here's a narration:

With about 8 seconds left, Beno drove right and then kicked it out to Nazr who was just right of the top of the key. During Beno's drive, Nazr held his hands out anticipating the kick (LOL). Nazr caught the pass and flung the ball up with some seriously flat trajectory. The ball hit the front of the rim, then bounced all the way to the top of the backboard, skimmed the backboard on the way back down, hits the back of the iron, then bounced forward at such an angle that Reggie Evans went up for the rebound. The ball then knicked hit the front of the iron, bounced back again to the back of the iron, bounced up and then skimmed the back of the iron again as it sank. Five bounces including the backboard.

When Seattle got the ball back the clock read two seconds.

Are there any gif's or mpeg's of that 3? I would love to see it! I could not see any playoff game from the spurs til today...I hope I get to see one next week... :(

[50 cent]

That shot actually cost me $50 on a middle that I had. I had the Spurs to win by 10 for $100. So at half time, I took SEA +3.5 for $25 to middle the bet so my account would be guaranteed to close the night with a certain amount meaning that if that if the Spurs won by 10-15, I would win BOTH bets.

I had it middled and figured that he would miss for sure and the clock would run out for a 14 point win, but he "nailed" it. It was all good though because I am up a ton of money so far in the playoffs and that was just a small hedge. I was happy for Nazr and actually laughed when that happened. He really MOOSED everybody that had SEA in the 2nd half because the Spurs were never really consistently up more than 15 in the 2nd half until that shot. But, that's gambling for you.

I sure doubt it. It was in the last seconds of the game and the announcers were barely even paying attention. Dick Stockton commented a few seconds after the basket that it was the exclamation point on the victory.

[Crafty One]

Goes anybody have a video of the shot

[BadlyDrawnBoy]

Streakyshooter.... check your PMs bro.

The Spurs ran up the score.

The Sonics will kill San Antonio in Game 3 just because of that shot.

[Big Pimp_21]

How did they run up the score? Nazr took that shot to avoid a shot clock violation. He didn't expect to make it!

[Horry For 3!]

Nazr's 3 was bouncing on the rim for awhile. It looked like it was fixin to roll out and then it went through and I was like...oh shit! he made it! crazyyyyy haha Nice :)

Dude, did you watch the game? The Sonics on the bench sure didn't. Evertime they showed Fortson, he was examining his cuticles, and The Appendix was busily staring into space.

[HB22inSA]

I was being facetious.

[exstatic]

It looked like he was trying to draw iron and have it rattle around and run out the clock. There was a difference of between 2-3 seconds between the shot and game clocks. If you have Manu or Barry take that shot, it's running up the score, but Nazr is probably the worst candidate to take a 3 that you might need. I think they purposely gave him the ball to shoot, knowing it would clank, and possibly come off the rim and run out the clock. Accidents happen.

He is playing basketball almost whole life and hit a 3 and now he is a god :lol :lol :lol
