VIDEOS: Green, Gasol ice Heat with 2 mind-blowing OT plays
Nelson Chenault-USA TODAY Sports / Reuters
The Miami Heat, toiling through their fourth game in five nights, played the Memphis Grizzlies' slow, arduous, bludgeoning game Tuesday night, and they were good enough at it to push the contest into overtime.
But it was all for naught as two huge plays in overtime gave the home team the victory.
The first blow came courtesy of Grizzlies forward Jeff Green. The hyperathletic dunker came out of nowhere for a ridiculous putback dunk to put Memphis up five.
On the next possession, Marc Gasol pulled out a bit of sorcery as he flipped up an and-1 with an over-the-shoulder prayer. That practically sealed the win.
Shimmy to your heart's content, "Big Spain."
