Raise your hand if you thought that "Green and Neal" would be trending on Twitter at some point during Game 3 of the 2013 NBA Finals tonight. Put your hands down, you $^%&*@# liars! No, you didn't. You did not see this coming. And admittedly, neither did we.
Yet, "Green and Neal" were trending and, if you're reading this on Tuesday night, still are trending on Twitter. That's because Danny Green and Gary Neal put on a shooting clinic tonight during the Spurs' 113-77 win over the Heat. Green shot 7-for-9 from three-point range and finished with 27 points in the game, while Neal came off the bench to go 6-for-10 from three to finish with 24 points. They were so hot from three that the Spurs set a new NBA Finals record by making 16 threes total as a team.
We don't know if either guy will be able to keep shooting this well in Game 4 on Thursday night. But for tonight, Green and Neal owned the court. Watch the clip above to see Green break the old Finals record.
