NBC Sports writer D.J. Short asked on Twitter:
As a participant, what is the best feeling in sports? To me, nothing beats making a nothing-but-net three-pointer. It's magic.

Stretching around a screen to put a wrister top-cheese,
not even seeing that corner of the net but knowing where the goalie is
and where high stick-side has to be,
not hearing the pop or the ping or the clap
of puck against pad or post or glass,
and everything
just
stops
