Anyone who didn't say that was the most amazing shot they have ever seen in portland is out of they're minds. Amazing!

That catch and shoot was incrediclutch!
I've never seen a trey like that, so high, bottom of net!
Chuck has said us fans are the best but last night he was too grumpy to show the requisite love for such a shot. (He prattled on about how it was really just bad D that let that happen.) Roy lofted that bomb like he was shooting over Yao anyhow. So money. His shot before that was nice too. And that 'foul' looked mostly leather to me also.
But Billy Ray Bates was superman when his Dawkins dunk capped capped 5 point comeback in less than 8 seconds

Great shot,
But the question ask for clutch performance, not a very dominate performance by Roy.

Sure, any number of M.J. performances. Roy did nothing to help the team most of the game, which was the reason we needed to have a last second save in the first place.
And who could forget Terry Porter's threes winning the game against Seattle. But...Brandon's is one of the all timers for sure. Perfect pass by Blake on the inbound!!

Great shot, but I still rank Billy Ray Bates last second shot against the Sixers as my favorite.

I've never seen 3 shots made in less than 2 seconds. But, the thing that keeps this from being one of the greatest finishes ever was the fact that Roy fouled Yao, necessitating the game winning shot. But man, what a finish!
Not very good choices, I would have chosen 'the spirit of Kevin Duckworth was in DA HOUSE!!' over those three choices... :)
GO BLAZERS!

Brandon Roy's shot was indeed a great one, but my favorite Blazers game-winning play is still when Clyde Drexler stole the ball in the closing seconds of a game, ran down the court and finished with a dunk at the buzzer. Clyde had many late game heroics for the Blazers. I hope one day Brandon will catch up to him.

Among the greatest finishes, but Blazers (with Lionel Hollins) score 6-8 points in last 11 seconds against the bulls to win. Can't remember the year, but Hollins' shot from near mid-court while falling out of bounds was magnificent.

Amazing, Amazing game! What a blessing to have been there to see this team overcome! They nearly gave it away, and Houston couldn't put it away.
Brandon won it, then lost it, then hit the clutch shot at the end...THE CROWD GOES WILD... RIP CITY! Barkley said it right when he said Portland has the best fans! Go Blazers.... #1 of ???

Brandon is ice-man.
