Being 'clutch' is not just hitting a shot in the last few seconds. It's also making the great pass, getting the key rebound and also putting the team in a position to win during the fourth quarter.

Saying that Ray is 'clutch' is true but I would say Bosh was even more so. Sure, they wouldnt have won without Ray's big shot but without Bosh's blocks the same can be said.

And, Lebron's whole fourth quarter was pretty much clutch.

In fairness, it's easier to block a shot when you're allowed to body check the shooter.

Haha but........he did get the offensive rebound and found ray for the 3.

Thought bosh was embarrasing for most of the game but that was a huge play as was the block on Parker as well

Yeah, Bosh definitely made some plays.  I'm a long way from calling the Ru Paul of Big Men "clutch", though.

Exactly had the Spurs done this they would have been whistled by the refs garunteed. Miami is alllowed to do what they want. Spurs were not allowed to get away with anything, but the Miami heat could do whatever they wanted. NBA is not fun to watch when you can predict the ending. Refs made sure Heat did not lose. Heat had some good plays but no other team would have been allowed to get away with what they got away with

bigger than Ray's shot was his ability to foul steal from Ginobili with 1.9 seconds to go.  ::)

Ray Allen silenced his Celtics haters for good tonight.

There's nothing more you can say to him.  Man showed up in the biggest moment of his life to that point and delivered.

not like it's Game 7
at most, he forced another game.
I'd like to see what he does in Game 7.

The "Ru Paul" nickname for Chris Bosh is honestly one of the dumbest and ill-informed nicknames I've ever heard. Was it Shaq that gave it to him?

Ray Allen hit the biggest shot of his career tonight, in a Heat uniform.

Hard to say exactly how that makes me feel, as a Celtics fan.  But it's not good.
That was incredible.  Ray hit shots like that hundreds of times for the Celtics.  He wanted to keep doing it for a contender.  I'm lucky in that I have no hate for the Heat.  Massive props to LeBron as well for hitting the 3 pointer before that.  Hard to criticize that guy ... he's a phenom.   But that shot by Ray was absolutely sick. 

IS there anyone in the history of the game more "clutch" than Ray Allen?  Perhaps Jordan?

  Ray "I didn't score a single point in game 7" Allen, who also goes by "I've probably averaged 12-13 points a game in the 10 game 7s I've played in since 2008" would like to thank you for your support. I'm sure he'll call you personally to thank you after he gathers up the rest of the team's uniforms and tosses them into the laundry bin.

  I guess being the most "clutch" player in league history has it's limits.
