As a young player in Milwaukee, Ray Allen invented a drill in which he lies in the key, springs to his feet and backpedals to the corner. A coach throws him a pass. He has to catch and shoot without stepping on the three-point line or the sideline. In Ray's first training session with the Heat he performed the drill. He does it for offensive rebounding purposes. Ray said, "You never know when you'll be in a situation where you have to find the three-point line without looking down.'"

[@ERAProductionsinc]

+Oh My I never said they weren't fun to watch, because they are. But they're nothing like these Heat teams were

[@saintsolider3359]

ERAProductionsinc Heat didn't play team ball like the warriors do, warriors average the highest assist rate in the nba. They average way more assist than the old heat did. If you like the heat better than you just don't like unselfish, good basketball.

[@JMarq]

+Oh My You should keep an eye on Spurs the team that everyone wants to be, if spurs would've never done ball movement no one would be doing it. Steve Kerr got this from spurs a former spur just like Hawks head coach uses the same system

Boy the heat superteam was cheating.. I was bout your age and we were justified in that feeling because the 2nd best player in the world teamed up with 2 other top 10 or Top 12 guys .

I have watched this play so many times. I fucking love it. The heat was fucked, LeBron went into overdrive mode, and then Ray Allen from a desperation bosh rebound, hits what I consider to be one of the most historically important and clutch shots of all time. And then they go on to win game 7. Beautiful.

How did he know? Because he constantly practiced backpedaling and finding the gap from which to shoot between the 3 point line and the sideline, that’s how.

[@BrandonCuringtonOfficial]

[@BrandonCuringtonOfficial]

@@alextrochezgomez1266 yea I'm not tryna discredit any of the Heat crew, especially Jimmy for carrying the entire franchise in the playoffs. It's just that, in that very moment he attempted the 3-pointer, I got flashbacks from that Ray Allen shot, and for a sec I thought we would be getting another clutch play for the ages

[@ProjectDingmans]

Seriously the most clutch shot in NBA history. Glad I was alive to see it.

[@Ravixor]

here was more than 5 seconds left on the clock, so no, it's not THE most clutch shot. One of the greatest I've seen though. If anything, Bosh probably had the most clutch rebound I've ever seen.

[@ProjectDingmans]

Ravixor Okay Buzz Killington, thanks for that. Ass

[@homiefromfl]

Ravixor I beg to differ. Ray Allen got possession of the ball with 7.5 seconds left and a WIDE OPEN LeBron in the middle of the court. Yet, he rises up and hits a CLUTCH three, even though he had enough time to dish it to LeBron and not having to run the risk of taking and potentially missing that three. The fact that he took the shot, even if he had other (even if just one) options, says how much that man loves the responsibility of such a tough situation and how much clutch that man has in him. Most guys would've made the pass. Ice water in his veins. #JesusShuttlesworth And yeah, that rebound by Bosh was clutch as hell too. Most important player on that team. #Boshtrich #Boshosaurus

[@skip2mylizzle]

This is the type of thing you see watching highlights of classic nba playoffs /finals. Just an amazing shot. It really doesn't get any bigger than that. Not even a heat fan, just a hoops fan, and with EVERYTHING on the line, he hits the shot like it ain't nothing.
