And we thought football was a game of inches. With the Toronto Raptors down by one with only a few seconds remaining, Kyle Lowry was called upon to help sink the final basket which would send his team to the next round against the Miami Heat. After an initial loose ball recovered by Lowry, the point guard attempted a floater which was rejected by the fingertips of Paul Pierce. Another couple of inches higher and we may have seen a different outcome. What a finish! 

We know how that feel, Drizzy.
