Day 02  ESports Moment You’ll Never Forget

Sue Bird #10 makes a three point basket over DeWanna Bonner #24 putting the Storm up by three points with 2.8 seconds remaining. (WNBA Western Conference Finals Game 2: Phoenix Mercury 88 vs. Seattle Storm 91, US Airways Center, Phoenix, AZ. September 05,2010)

Game 2 of the 2010 Western Conference Finals. The Storm had just tied the score after being down 19 points sometime in that game and Diana Taurasi had been wreaking havoc in the Phoenix home court. Tanisha Wright waited until about 8 seconds were left in the shot clock before zipping a pass to Sue Bird who managed to shake her defender free, got her feet set, and put up probably one of the biggest shots in her career. 2.8 seconds remained and Taurasi missed the potential tying three-pointer.

Of course she did the whole Die Bitches shot again against Atlanta in the Game 1 of the Finals but that didn’t compare to the magnitude of this shot against Phoenix.
