In a "you had to be there to believe it" ending. Tropcial Thunder notched their first win in ridiculous fashion. The Dawgs were up 4 shooting a 1 and 1 with 11 seconds to go. The front end was missed. Tropical got it down the floor and got a quick bucket. Here is where the chaos began...Dawgs actually could have let the clock run out, and Tropical for some reason wasn't calling time out. The Dawgs inbounded long for reasons unclear and a deflected the ball high into the air. With a second remaining Jack Temptesta hauled it in and heaved 45 footer as time expired...it banked through giving Tropical Thunder their first W and keeping the Dawgs out of playoff eontention.
