18 1995 NBA Finals It was Game 1 of the 1995 NBA Finals and the Orlando Magic blew a 20 point lead but still had a 3 point lead with 10.5 seconds on the clock and Nick Anderson at the free throw line. All he had to do was hit 1 of 2. He missed the first. He missed the second but was lucky enough to get the offensive board and go back to the line for 2 more shots at redemption. He ended up missing both of those. That divine intervention gave the Rockets a chance and Kenny Smith came through with a huge 3 pointer to put the game into OT. There, it was a back and forth affair that ended with a Houston win. A demoralized Magic would lose the next 3 games.

19 1995 NBA Finals That next year, Shaq would leave Orlando to join LA while the Magic franchise struggled to recover. No player struggled to recover more from that game than Nick Anderson. It affected the way I played, he said. It affected the way I lived. It played in my head like a recorder over and over again. Nick The Brick Anderson went from a 74 percent free throw shooter to a 40 percent free throw shooter. He played a few more mediocre years including a very forgettable stint with the Kings and Grizzlies before finally getting cut and being out of basketball much earlier in his career than anybody ever expected.
