    Well, I loved Roy's buzzer beater against the Rockets.  I was at that game.  But, this shot was just so lucky, and came at the perfect time.

    Roy's was better because it came with much less time on the clock, he had no momentum going for him, it was a turn around away from the basket, and he had just given up the would-be game-winner to Yao the play before. But, not to take anything away from Evans, that shot was nuts. Still, the best half-court game-winner was Harris' juggling act about 2 years ago in New Jersey.

    I donno, its hard to compare the two.  The thing that was awesome about this one was no timeouts, he had to inbound the ball at the bottom of the opposing hoop, and OJ Mayo just hit an incredible shot before that.  I feel bad for the guy.  If Tyreke hadn't made that, NBA.com would be talking about how tough of a game winner he made.

    Roys was more epic simply because our crowd is better.  I couldn't hear the people next to me trying to say stuff because the cheers were so loud and thunderous.  The TV really does silent how loud the crowd is.

    I remember being at that Houston game.  It was at the beginning of the season pretty much.  It felt like we just won the finals.  It was nuts in the garden in the halls, and outside after that game.  It really had me pumped up.

    I was at that game as well. I was so pumped after Roy hit the turn around on the fast break, then so devastated after he fouled Yao for the And-1. As soon as he shot it, I was thinking to myself..."this thing has a chance"..when it wen in...pandemonium.

    Roys shot was spectacular for two reasons. That turnaround shot, was an actual shot. I watched his catc,elevation, form and follow through. And the collective rise of the Garden. I get chills watching and listening to the replays still. The announcer lost his mind.

    I loved Roy's shot of course and Tyreke's was pretty sick, but yeah, I say Roy's takes the cake!

    Glad to be back DH22. Just kind of sitting back and soaking in the possibilities of life as a Blazer fan. You know, wishlist and such. You and i, and i imagine a few others always knew the inevitable in regards to Roy. But, the game must go on.

    Tyreke's and Harris' were pure luck, Roy's was a cold blooded dagger. Seriously, anything beyond half court is luck and Harris bobbling the ball and throwing it in is luck.

    I think Oj Mayo had the hardest shot in that there video.
    Roy's shot is crazy, but it wasnt like a half court hope this goes in shot.
    Roys was like, "okay im deep, i have to make this"
    And Evans was like, "oh ima line this up perfect, i hope it goes in."

    but really, Mayo had the hardest one his shot was the "oh inbound to me, dribble or step away, damn cant get away, fade back, shot, good"
    way doper.

    I guess Batum would be a good fit since Ilysavoa plays 4 more than the 3, which I didnt know lol

    I think this would be a really good deal for Bucks then. They can draft Dieng with the 10 and maybe Franklin with their pick.

    You''re right. They should dump Monta though. I was thinking maybe the Rockets could use the number 1 pick to get the lakers to do a sign and trade for D12.

    Paul Allen might sell the Blazers but the Blazers will never leave Rip City.
