At 1:45, Jo Jo White drives the baseline and floats one over Duncan to cut it to 4 - and when Parker misses, Don Nelson hits from just outside the paint at 1;22 to make it a 93-91 Spurs game.
And then no one scores for a minute - at 27 seconds White misses the chance at a game tying J, Boston decides not to foul - Ginobli gets an open J at 15 seconds but misses - Boston doesn't stop the clock - they go down the floor - clock ticking down -
3 seconds left when Jo Jo White rises and fires --
Good.
The Celtics come all the way back and tie the game at 3 seconds left as the Garden explodes.
Spurs call time. Inbound from halfcourt.
