I watch Chicago Bulls games now. So I was lucky enough to see this sequence live via League Pass. The Bulls, down 31 in the first half to the visiting San Antonio Spurs, created a turnover. Kirk Hinrich attempted to start the fast break, but he fell down. Taj Gibson collected the ball, gathered himself and went up for a dunk over the disinterested-in-being-on-YouTube Patty Mills. The ball smashed off the back of the rim and into the stands. Even when the Bulls fail they do it with grit, hustle and determination. Chicago ended up losing by just 8 points because of a comeback that happened after Tony Parker had already boarded a plane home to San Antonio.
