#8 Ray Allen Vs The San Antonio Spurs - NBA Final, Game 6 (2013)

Ray Allen series-saving shot against the Spurs in Game 6 of the 2013 Finals.

The 2013 NBA finals saw the Miami Heat, taking on the San Antonio Spurs, trying to win their second successive title and cement the era of the Big Three - LeBron James, Dwyane Wade, and Chris Bosh. The Spurs were looking for their fifth NBA title and had a less glamorous but just as effective big three of their own.

Going into game 6, the Spurs lead 3-2 and were playing some of the most captivating basketball. It was an intense game throughout but the atmosphere reached its melting point when the Spurs looked in firm control holding a 94-89 lead with 28 seconds remaining. James' three-pointer cut the five-point lead to two with 20.1 seconds remaining.

Kawhi Leonard on the other end split his free throws to give the Heat a chance. James missed a long three. Bosh collected the most important rebound of his career and passed to Allen, who made one of the most historic shots to send the game into overtime.

The Heat went on to win the game, and eventually the series. With James already having a shaky record in the finals, it is safe to say that he was most grateful for Allen's moment of genius.
