That was easily the most amazing pass I have seen in some time.
Almost exact same pass Nash threw like 2 season's ago at the end of a game. Hit Hill I believe in the corner for a three.

Video proof or it didn’t happen.

Not exactly the same, Nash didn't throw it between 3 defenders and it was easier to pass it to Hill because his angle and his vision were better on the play.

^ Also Nash used is right hand, Rondo used his left.

Well if you look, the pass was a hop-step to Ray's left (as opposed to our left of Ray). Ray's just a pro, and the ball was soft enough so it didn't matter.

Well if you look, Ray took a step right, from where he was spotting up, as Rondo drove. Since it was no-look, Rondo was passing from memory. If Ray hadn't moved in the first place, he wouldn't have had to budge to catch the pass. :-P

It's just as well. I think Ray's better at hitting shots with a little movement than a complete standstill shot.

  Funny. I didn't see Ray shuffle to the side when I first saw it. Good catch.

Why hasn't Rondo been in the skills contest yet?  He would break D-Will's record easy (as long as he made the jumper).
Philly:

Anderson Varejao    Tiago Splitter    Matt Bonner
David West    Kenyon Martin    Brad Miller
Andre Iguodala    Josh Childress    Marquis Daniels
Dwyane Wade    Leandro Barbosa
Kirk Hinrich    Toney Douglas   + the legendary Kevin McHale
