Let’s just be honest - Derek Fisher should have never made that shot.
For one, the clock didn’t start at the immediate moment the ball was inbounded. Even Derek Fisher admitted the clock was his ally.
Two, it’s Derek Fisher! Most important shot of your season doesn’t go to Kobe Bryant?!? The basketball gods should have smite the Lakers for their egregious game plan.
Third, Derek’s form is all cattywampus. Meanwhile, Manu Ginobili is straight up-and-down, arms extended, and the Argentinian has a good five inches on the former Trojan.
