VIDEO: Damian Lillard sinks a game winner, Moda Center erupts

Craig Mitchelldyer-USA TODAY Sports / Reuters

Portland Trail Blazers guard Damian Lillard hit the shot of his life Friday night. 

With a mere 0.9 seconds left in the fourth quarter, Portland trailed by two points awaiting an inbounds. Trail Blazers forward Nic Batum spotted a cutting Lillard, who promptly drained a triple over the outstretched arms of Rockets forward Chandler Parsons. 

Lillard's shot not only sealed the game for Portland, it also helped the Blazers upset the Rockets in their first round playoff series. As you can imagine, the scene in the Moda Center in Portland was electric, to say the least. Warning: Turn your volume down, it's quite loud.
