Had it come just a half-second sooner, Boston Celtics veteran big man Al Horford would have capped off his big game against the Milwaukee Bucks with a buzzer-beating bucket. But the tip-in came just an instant too late, unfairly rendering one of the Florida product’s best postseason games in a good while something of an afterthought.
So, we will celebrate Horford in this post anyway, seeing as he put up 22 points, 15 rebounds, 5 assists, and 2 blocks on 9-of-17 shooting from the floor, and a sizzling 4-of-7 from beyond the arc without turning the ball over even once throughout 39 minutes played over the course of a very physical game.
