Ray Allen will go down as the best three point shooter to ever play in the NBA, and last night he was. The veteran hit what's becoming known by Heat fans already as "The Shot" last night to send the Heat and Spurs into overtime and eventually, to win the game.

With only seconds left, Chris Bosh kicked the ball out to teammate Allen for a chance to tie the game. "When I saw [Bosh] get the ball, I just backpedaled right to the three-point line, and I was hoping I was where I needed to be," Allen said. "I wasn't quite sure. But just from years of shooting, I got to my spot. ... I just knew get to the three-point line. We need a three. Two points isn't going to cut it." 

People typically look to the "Big 3" to be the ones to perform in big situations, but neither James, Wade, or Bosh were the heroes of the evening. "It's going to be a shot that I'm going to remember for a long time," Allen said. "There's a lot of shots that I've made in my career, but this will go high up in the ranks because of the situation." 

Even King James himself was deferring the glory to Allen... kind of. "If it's not me taking the shot, I have no problem with Ray taking that shot," James said. "He's got ice water in his veins. Ray can be 0-for-99 in a game and if he gets an open look late in the game, it's going down. That's just the confidence he has in himself, the preparation that he prepares for every game." 

Game 7 is this Thursday night in Miami and it looks to be one for the ages.
