          Leonard: I ended up catching it and just trying to get to a space so I could get the shot off. Embiid was guarding me. But he's taller and longer than me, so I ended up finding a spot that I like ... that I work on. I knew I had to shoot it high. A couple of possessions before that I had the same kind of shot from 3 and it ended up coming short. I had to put it up even higher than that.

          Given the circumstances, degree of difficulty and level of pressure, easily one of the best shots ever made.

              In this one Embiid looks like a Super Punch Out villain about to fall down.

                    There was a lot of spin on that ball because of the angle he had to put up to get it over Embiid. If it was just a straight open shot that hit that location, it probably clanks off the rim and comes back towards Kawhi

                    Or, there's magnets in the ball so the NBA can control outcomes

                      It's not that simple though. Kawhi almost always shoots a low arc trajectory. In that situation of course he rarely makes one off the rim. The shot against Embiid was a very high arc shot. The ball reacts much differently to a high arc versus a low arc. We're talking a line drive versus a pop fly. The chart is interesting but not very applicable to this particular shot.

                          Was trying to keep it strictly to angles that I hadn't seen posted before for no repeats.. And the squat has been shown and shown and shown again, and will be shown to our children and their children and their children's children and their children's, children's, grandchildren and so on... Until infinity.

                          But I certainly take your point.


                          (edit... Not sure I've seen this one that I just found.. perhaps I'll add. Love Joel's face peeking through and Jodie's)
