Derrick Rose, Paul Pierce Turn Back the Clock with Buzzer Beaters

It’s been a crazy week in the NBA Playoffs. From road underdogs stealing victories from the hometown favorites to the return of LeBron James’ headband and a masked Mike Conley, it was a week full of surprises.

In recent days, it’s been a couple of former All-Stars recapturing some of their past glory with buzzer-beating jump shots.

Still reeling from the loss of star point-man John Wall to a fractured hand, the Washington Wizards looked to be headed for trouble in their Game 3 match-up with the top-seeded Atlanta Hawks.
