Seriously clutch play by Rivers there.

Goat of the week goes to Tyler Zeller for scoring on his own team and then missing the FT and then letting Rivers shoot over him for the game winning 3.

Doc Rivers jumping up and down and the whole crowd stunned. They stole this game in the FT game.

Huge choke job by UNC (refs played a part) but what an even bigger shot by Austin. He has huuuuuuuuuuge cajones.

Rivers stole Barnes sunshine.

Rivers with the winner, but he still is terrible, the only thing he did all game is chuck 3's, no passing non existent on the D...and maybe took it to the paint like twice

Zeller just stood there and let him shoot. He pulled the triple fail in the final seconds.

UNC really lost the game by the poor free throw shooting, both Z and Barnes missed quite alot on FTs.
