Number 2: Landry Shamet game-winner vs. Golden State

The Clippers made the playoffs last season and were rewarded by facing the defending champion Golden State Warriors in the first round and by all intents and purposes, the Clippers stood no chance against a mostly healthy Warriors squad.

Game one went exactly how many thought the series would go, with the Warriors dominating all facets and winning by double digits and even game two started that way with the Clippers falling behind by 31 points in Oracle and facing a 2-0 deficit dead in the face.

The Clippers had other plans, roaring back from the enormous deficit and setting up the biggest comeback in NBA playoff history with a Landry Shamet three-pointer that from SGA that led to the Clippers tying the series at a game a piece and making a competitive series out of virtually nothing.

The Clippers ended up losing the series 4-2 but many among the NBA gave enormous props to head coach Doc Rivers and company for showing their amount of fight despite being outmatched at almost every position on the court and winning not once, but twice in Oracle Arena.
