Thanks for the URL.  Watching the video reminded me of the *second*
great DJ play in that Bird-DJ win over the Pistons: DJ hits the winning
shot . . . then races over to the line to harass the inbounder.

DJ has just made a huge basket and he never even *thinks* of
celebrating; all that's in his mind is there's still one second left.
THAT is a winner.
