NBA, Where Greatness Happens is just one of the tags that the league uses come playoff time. Fans should never be surprised about what happens on a nightly basis, but we are. We all wish we could do even half of the things these athletes can do.

Danilo Gallinari, a forward for the Denver Nuggets, got ahead of the defense on the rebound. When an outlet pass from Andre Miller goes a little too far to the baseline, Gallinari sidesteps the out of bounds line, goes to the three point line, and throws one of the sickest behind the back passes I have ever seen to Kenneth Faried who is trailing on the play.

Boston Celtics defender Brandon Bass was back on the play, but he had no clue Gallinari had thrown the pass until Faried was laying the ball in. Even Paul Pierce had no clue what was going on, who was guarding Gallinari, as he had no chance of deflecting the ball.

The Nuggets would get the win, 98-91, and one of the best plays of the day.
