Devin Harris possibly hit a game winner from beyond half court

[Posterize246]

It's under review. I'm going to puke...

[Coastal]

Its gotta be good!

[Kujo]

Crazy shot. One of the flukiest buzzer beaters I've seen. :applause:

Harris redeemed himself of making two bonehead plays down the stretch.

[Posterize246]

I'm going to go vomit now. BRB.

[fiad06]

WOW

The funny part is that as the ball was in the air he was in process of complaining about a lack of a foul call. lol.

[mattreis62]

[Coastal]

Well that will be #1 on Sports Center top players for the rest of the week.

[D-Rose]

Was it Jerry West esque? lol GW from there are so damn rare...cant wait for the vid.

[MTing]

Im at a loss for words right now...
After 2 horrible plays that mad me extreamly angry at Devin, he hits a shot like this...
Wow..

[wang4three]

****ing. sick. i was sitting there pissed off about the no-call on iggy, but then jumping for joy. ****ing. suck.

[Coastal]

not to mention..39pts 8ast 2stl 2reb

[FinishHim!]

Was it Jerry West esque? lol GW from there are so damn rare...cant wait for the vid.
Basically he caught the ball one dribble (i think) got to about half court, it was stripped, then he caught it and flung it up in one motion, milliseconds before the clock ran out. Incredibly lucky, but a crazy ending to the game nonetheless.

[wang4three]

It's A Prelude To March Madness!!!!!

[DuMa]

vid please!

[All Net]

Can't wait to watch this game on league pass tomorrow.

[rknine15]

No. He was trying the heave it but got fouled some how semi recovered it and just threw it in the air and it went in.

[iggy>]

the luckiest shot ive ever seen. the nets are complete garbage.

[ruslan]

I feel like knocking someone the **** out! :banghead:

Did it bank in or was it nothing, but net?

[Coastal]

Insane. I've watched it about 10 times.

[NY Comeback]

I don't understand how that wasn't a travel. Harris took a couple steps, flung it up and failed, caught it IN MID AIR, launches it and gets the prayer....wtf?

[FinishHim!]

straight in. just net.

[Coastal]

Nothing but net.

Damm...

[NoGunzJustSkillz]

perhaps the clock was started after devin marris made 2 steps. that is what philly news is saying....whatever...sick sht like that happens once in a million years...hopefully the sixers dont dwell on this lose.

I don't think it was a travel, I do think it was a pretty long 1.8 seconds however. But it's never easy to judge those kind of plays.

[Posterize246]

CSN just showed it in slow motion to check when the clock started. Started late. I'm going to go puke again.

Not taking away from Harris' shot. If they gave him a whole extra second I would count it. That shot was insane.

[kwajo]

MoPete 2.0?

I know how you feel, Houston lost the same way earlier in the season to Portland.

[MTing]

This was a ugly win though. Vince was off again, Harris made some really bad plays at the end of the game and all hope seemed to be lost. Then Harris hits a prayer. Im not denying it, it was probably the luckiest half courter ever. But hey a wins a win, I'll take it.

[Coastal]

Harris has been pretty good as of late. The rest of the team has just stunk. I still think he's the MIP.

[icewill36]

wheres the ****in video ?!!!!

Only difference there was that Roy actually only touched the ball for 0.76 seconds out of 0.8 seconds available. :P

I want to see the video!

[LBJames2010]

im sure its gonna be on sportscenter soon enough.

[Styles p]

i left work with 19.0 seconds left and called to a co worker we were gonna lose by a buzzer beater by harris. i get home and what do u know its so easy to call these days this team is so ****ing depressing. its time to clean house. tony is ****ing pissing me off why the **** is willie green starting? why not

pg-miller
sg-iggy
sf-young
pf-speights
c-dalemtrash

what do we have to lose at this point? the rest of the season should be spent developing our young talent. and transforming iggy to sg.

[RecSpecs110]

Because the first shot attempt when he was trying to draw a foul was deflected by Iguodala. Devin then took the ball and flung it.

No travel.

[FindingTim]

nba.com is annoying me badly. they have the post game interview with Devin but no clips of the Goddang shot :banghead:

[kidachi]

someone GIF it..

That was the most ridiculous shot I've seen in a NBA game. If that happened in a video game I'd roll my eyes. Wow.

Wow. :oldlol: It's the fact that he bobbled it right before the shot that makes it so improbable, more so than the distance and shot itself. How stupid does that defender have to be to be playing Harris so closely with 1.8 seconds left? Terrible defense; he's lucky he didn't get called for a foul on the shot attempt.

[DuMa]

cant blame iggy for that d... he did everything he could without fouling. and it wasnt even close to fouling imho.

harris just hit a 1 in 100,000 shot. incredibly lucky

[Jasper]

that's my boy !!!!!!!! WI we said it all !

Well, I wouldn't call that fould to decide the game, but I certainly wouldn't say it "wasn't even close to fouling"... Iggy slapped him across the arms... didn't get any ball at all...

[wang4three]

Yet the refs called a ticky tack foul on Devin on the previous play to send Andre to the line to decide the game.

Devin was fouled on that play-- I was angry that the refs wouldn't call it there but would call it when Andre made his move. Fate sealed the deal though.

[w00terz]

Wow, that was one of the most ridiculous shots I've seen in a long time. Sucks to be a 76ers fan tonight. That was unbelievable.

[ZHAKIDD532]

Second time in 2 meetings the Nets win in an unusual fashion against the Sixers. Last time the Sixers didn't a field goal in the last 10:30 and now...well you see the result...

I'm 100% sure Andre was fouled on that play.

I'm also 100% sure he walked on that spin move right before the foul.

[CySniper]

devin harris = most clutch player this season along with VC

[wang4three]

I'm 100% sure Andre was fouled on that play.

I'm also 100% sure he walked on that spin move right before the foul.

I never got a good look at the replay, but it didn't seem like it was noteworthy of a call. Especially when Devin did not get the same ticky-tack call at the end there. Or when Vince made that layup over Dalembert. They're all just touch fouls really that could go either way, but seems as if Philly was getting more breaks than we were. Well atleast when Violet Palmer was involved. How she has a job still, I don't know. She's terrible.

His arm was grabbed on the move. Ball went up in the air. He was fouled. But he took 2 steps when going in for the layup, then an extra step into the spin move. Should have just been Nets ball. Probably would have been OT that way too.

I would've preferred that then. For some reason I didn't want that game to end, though it led beautifully into the Kansas-OU game.

[TMAC-RAPTORS]

looked ugly but w/e it was still sick sick sick

[sixerfan3511]

f*ck my life, what lucky bs

[Hammertime]

The clock should've expired before he got hacked, let alone before he took that shot.

[haterofhaters]

The clock should've expired before he got hacked, let alone before he took that shot.
The clock didn't start soon enough, but it should've been a foul. Not that i'm justifying the call but it's just one of those things.

[ZOMG]

I cannot BELIEVE some people are saying that a foul should have been called on the last play. Under 2 seconds left, you have absolutely no choice but to heave a desperation shot from behind mid-court - and you expect the refs to bail you out? When does that even happen?? :rolleyes:

Iggy defended the play pretty much perfectly. Just stayed in front of Harris and didn't jump. It was just one of those shots where there isn't even any skill involved, just pure luck - the ball might just as well have hit the top of the backboard. Unbelievable.

[BingBongBrother]

Hold up... didn't he travel before the shot?

[ZOMG]

Hold up... didn't he travel before the shot?

If he lost possession of the ball because Iggy touched it, it wasn't a travel. But DID Iggy touch it or was it due to Harris looking for contact (there wasn't any) and a bailout call?

Extremely hard to tell even from the slo-mo.

[haterofhaters]

Hold up... didn't he travel before the shot?
the ball was knocked out of his hands.

[TheGame]

No, he didn't travel he shot the ball and it was blocked which sent it back to him and he shot it again. The sequence of movements was very fast so I can easily understand why some people think it's a travel.

[ZOMG]

the ball was knocked out of his hands.

I dunno. I just watched the replay again and it looks more and more like nobody but Harris touched the ball on the play. He knew he basically had zero chance of getting a good shot off with Iggy right in front of him, so he tried to draw contact and go for an "offensive flop".

To Devin's suprise, however, Iggy kept just enough distance not to give the refs any excuse for blowing the whistle, which is what you try to do in that situation. So he just grabbed the ball again and heaved it.

I'm calling it a flop and a travel by Harris.

He tried to draw the foul yes, but the ball clearly bounced off of Igoudala's hand at about the 35 second mark of the video. It wasn't a travel, but the clock did start late.

[ZHAKIDD532]

I don't the clock started late enough for anyone to get terribly pissed about that. It might have changed the call at the end, but by the slightest of margins. Harris got hacked too, so I think we're even.

Please, if the refs were going to let the game decided on a foul--Iguodala was called for a light touch foul before that WHILE also a traveling NO CALL was made, the Nets deserved the same sort of calls on the other end. Just cause it was a desperation half court heave does not make it not a no call. Watch the previous play of the game with Iggy traveling and getting called for a touch foul and then come back to us and ask us if we believed we should've gotten the same treatment.

If you cannot "BELIEVE" we are asking for a foul I cannot "BELIEVE" you're not willing to take a look at the entire context of the game and how it was being called.

[All Net]

*clicks league pass broadband* *now watching the game*

seeing as I havn't seen the shot will be very interested by this game. Normally a Net/sixers game I would have no interest in but this one clearly was good.

looked a bit like a self pass but he bounced it off Iggy and caught it. Which negates that.

great shot!

I know I'm getting sick of 76ers fans moaning about this game and that the clock started after a second. It's time for them to put this game behind them and move on.

I feel pretty bad for the sixers they played a very tough game just got unlucky.

Iguodala CLEARLY touched the ball right before Devin shot it. If you cannot see it, you're blind, and you should seriously shut up.

Stop being a sore loser and admit defeat. It's one thing to b*tch about a debatable call, it's another to b*tch about something so damn obvious that we all know you're in denial.
