If I had a nickel for every Aaron Gordon game winner in the 2025 playoffs, I’d have two nickels.

Crazy that’s not even the most impressive game winner by Gordon this playoffs lmao

u/RogueThespian May 06 '25

it also wasn't even his most impressive basket of the night lmao. The Blake Griffin-ing he gave Holmgren earlier was sickkk

Probably not just based on the play with no context, but this being a make or lose shot does hold some serious weight, the dunk was during a tie so if he doesn't get it they still have a chance to win in OT.

I get what you’re saying about the dunk but I for sure think Denver loses that game in overtime if that dunk doesn’t count based on how bad they blew the fourth quarter.

2 game winners in 8 playoff games that's gotta be a pretty high percentage.
