#4 Tim Duncan Hits a Three to Send the Game into Overtime

The score was 101 to 104 in favor of the suns with the clock winding down. Manu Ginobili scrambles around the court trying to create a shot but is forced to dish the ball out to a wide open Tim Duncan standing behind the three point line. Nobody came out to guard Duncan so he drills his first three pointer of the season to to tie the game with 7.6 seconds.

One of the most Iconic moments in Spurs history is the rare emotional fist pump displayed by Duncan after hitting that shot.

The game would go into to overtime. The Spurs would also go on to win the game and the 2008 semi finals.
