 INDIANAPOLIS (AP) - Ben Gordon was just warming up when he drained a buzzer-beating jumper at the end of the third quarter. Gordon's spinning fadeaway from just inside the paint with 2.8 seconds left in regulation lifted the Chicago Bulls to a 92-90 win over the Indiana Pacers on Sunday.
When Indiana guard Jamaal Tinsley missed with 16 seconds left and the score tied at 90, Gordon got the chance he wanted.
"I was joking with my teammates on the bench, and I said 'all right, if they miss this next shot, I'm going to go make it,'" Gordon said. "I just love opportunities like that when I get a chance to help my team win a game."
