Gordon Hayward and Tobias Harris game winners all around

You get a buzzer beater, and you get a buzzer beater, everyone gets a buzzer beater !

Tied at 100 with only 3.4 seconds to go the Utah Jazz and specifically Gordon Hayward would not allow the game to go into overtime. Hayward finished the game with 21 points and the game winner which I'm sure he feels is the most important part too in defeating LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers 102-100. 

Tobias Harris also hit a game winner, his against the Philadelphia 76ers. With the game tied at 89 the Magic made sure to make the most out of their final possession by getting the ball to Harris who hit the fade away jumper to give Orlando the 91-89 win. 

Carmelo Anthony scores his 20,000th point

Tonight in a game between the New York Knicks and the Charlotte Hornets history was made as Carmelo Anthony becomes only the 40th player in NBA history to score over 20,000 points. Carmelo Anthony is the 6th youngest player to pass the 20,000 mark and 3 of those 6 players are still playing in the league today. Surprisingly the two mainly known as prolific scorers, Kobe Bryant and Carmelo Anthony, actually reached the 20,000 plateau later than LeBron James who has the reputation of being an MVP candidate every year because of his skills on the defensive and offensive end. Few people see James as a prolific scorer and many forget he has the potential to finish among the top 10 scorers in NBA history. Still nobody can deny that Kobe, LeBron, and Carmelo are all straight up ballers.
