Most points in a playoff game before turning 21 years old.
42 points — Magic Johnson: (Game 6, 1980 NBA Finals)
37 points — Tyler Herro (tonight)
Wow! He made a little history tonight. He almost took down Magic's 42 points. I didn't even realize he was that young.
Andre Iguodala is one win away from going to his sixth straight Finals.
Also that tidbit is nearly unfair because it makes me cry as a Rockets fan, because we haven't reached the NBA Finals since 1995! LOL
When we watch sporting events and listen to the commentary, we often hear things about the “intangibles” and the “it-factor” and “clutch”.
So what exactly is clutch? Is it coming back from being down 14 to start the 4th quarter? Is it going for 20/8/8 while guarding the opposing team’s best overall offensive player? Or is it making the game-winning shot on the road with 2.2 seconds left on the clock, and sinking the “favorites” in the first game of the playoffs?
You be the judge, but this is the NBA, where Iguodala happens.
