What in the ... just, what?
Oklahoma City Thunder forward/wizard Taj Gibson absolutely stunned the Portland Trail Blazers, who thought they were getting the last shot of the first half Thursday night with a cute full-court inbounds play straight out of the 1992 Blue Devils playbook.
Gibson had other ideas, not only intercepting the pass, but immediately letting fly a contested 61-foot shotput heave that went straight down the hatch to break a 57-57 tie. Ridiculous.
