when)*Wizards vs. Bulls Game 5


As I said last night, this was one of the better endings to a playoff game that I have seen in a while. The Wizards jumped on the Bulls early (nh). The offense was clicking they were playing hard D (nh) and even when Arenas or Hughes would take a dumb shot they would make them. The Wizards shot 73% in the first quarter and 64% at halftime. The Wizards looked as if they were going to run the Bulls out of their own gym as the Bulls got booed by the home crowed. The Wizards led by as much as 28 in the third quarter. But then like the Wizards have done all season, they let the team get back in the game in the fourth. The Wizards went, for what seemed to me to be at least 7 mins, without a feild goal in the 4th. And to compound the problem they didnt hit their freethrows.
And then with one minute left in the game and a 10 point cushion
he entered the game. He being that Pargo kid. In game 4 of the series with the Wizards up by 16, he went crazy from the 3 point line and made the game alot more interesting down the stretch. Surely my Wizards wouldnt let this happen again would they.........of course they would. Pargo hits 3 3 pointers including one with 5.4 seconds left to tie the game.
But as he has done at least 5 or 6 times this season, the game was in the hands of Gilbert Arenas. With 5.4 seconds left Arenas dribbled out 2 seconds off the clock and then made his move on Heinrich. He went left got ahead of Heinrich but stopped at the foul line as he saw the 7'2 shotblocker, Chandler, coming at him. He pulled up and hit a fadeaway swish over both Chandler and Heinrich. Game over bitches, we're headed home.

Was the Arenas shot a buzzer beater?

well he had the ball in his hands with 5.4 left and the shot left his hands with about .8 left.....went through at the buzzer.

One of the best finishes ive ever seen
