Portland Trail Blazers point guard capped a 50-point night with one of the greatest play-off shots in NBA history
Basketball should always be about the spectacle. Too often these days NBA commentators and fans descend into furtive debates about advanced analytics and statistics that reduce the game to a series of intellectualised metrics.
For me it is about those electric moments when skill and opportunity combine to create greatness. They are where you find the soul of the game, giving meaning to the “ball is life” mantra.
