Ouch!. The Truth hurts sometimes, as was the case tonight in the Wizards' season-ending loss to the Hawks, where old friend Paul Pierce nearly tied the game with a crazy three-pointer at the buzzer:
They say baseball is a game of inches, and according to this play, basketball is one of mere seconds. 0.1 seconds is all that separated the Wiz from traveling to Atlanta for a Game 7.
It's too bad because you could tell the Celtics' fans around here were starting to ride the Wizards as their team for the playoffs.
