I think the lillard shot is cool as shit even without the context. I like the composition a lot, the way the figures are positioned/space, there's an intensity and tension to it, and I like how the most important action is in the corner and understated. I'm sure I'm reading into it, but something about the photo itself *feels* like photo of a potentially gamewinning shot.

I think its cool as well xp. Cool that all ten players are in it

Such a bizarre moment in basketball.

No Lebron, Wade, Bosh, Parker, Ginobli, or Duncan in that photo! Pretty cool.

They pointed out on Deadspin I think that Kawhi didn't make that shot, he got fouled :(
