Last night, with 10.7 remaining on the clock, Houston Rockets forward Trevor Ariza made a game tying three pointer in a nationally televised contest against the Atlanta Hawks.It was, undeniably, a three point shot. Ariza gets the ball from harden on the wing, takes a single dribble to shake Tim Hardaway, Jr., pulls up with an attractive legs-spread fadeaway. The ball arcs through the air, hits the back of the rim for a satisfying "THUMP," and falls through the rim. The Houston crowd cheers because three points go on the board and a we have a tie game. No matter what current forces in our world tell you, you can plainly see what happened. Your senses do not lie to you for fun.
