I can but barely.

3 years ago, Sectional semifinals (2nd round game), I was a last minute replacement. Scheduled guy couldn;t get away from work. I alwys keep my bag in my truck. You never know.

Anyway, 4 OTs, home team hit buzzer beater 3 pointers at the end of regulation, 1st, and 3rd OT. When they hit the 3 at the end of the 3rd OT, the visiting coach just looked at me and shook his head. He couldn't believe it. The home teams starters were all fouled out by one. It was subs that were keeping them in the game. Visitors finally won.

I was wiped out. But it was worth it. The guy I replaced still won't let me live it down. He can't believe he turned in that game!
