With a little more than eight minutes remaining in Friday night's game and the Spurs clutching a four-point lead, Rockets guard Pat Beverley had a squeaky clean look at the basket to the right of the top of the key.
Beverley's resulting shot appeared just as impeccable, but teasingly rattled around the rim before falling out. Beverley spun around in disbelief, but by then he should have known better.
It's how the night went - with typically much worse offerings than that one - for every Rocket outside of James Harden and Clint Capela.
