'I love the fact that I made a shot, but the turnover kind of tainted that feeling,' Gay said. That winning shot was bittersweet for Gay. 'I really don't care who's guarding me to be honest with you.' 'I don't care if James Naismith was guarding me, which would be scary because he's dead,' Gay said. Officials reviewed the shot, then ruled it beat the clock. Gay came back with the winning 13-foot jumper in front of the Heat bench.
James tied it for the 12th time, dunking off Eddie House's steal of Gay with 5.5 seconds left.
Gay hit a fadeaway jumper over James at the buzzer, and the Memphis Grizzlies took advantage of Dwyane Wade's absence to beat the Miami Heat 97-95 on Saturday night and snap a five-game losing streak. Rudy Gay wanted to make up for his mistake that allowed LeBron James to tie the game with 5.5 seconds left.
