Take a trip down memory lane as we share a crazy moment at the podium, an amazing posterization, an absolute on-court fail or a memorable shooting performance from the postseason of the National Basketball Association in This Day in NBA Playoffs History.

On May 8, 2011, Jason Terry probably felt as though he was throwing a golf ball into an ocean. With the Dallas Mavericks holding onto a 3-0 lead over the Los Angeles Lakers in the Western Conference Semis, Terry single-handedly gave L.A. fits with one incredible shooting performance. Coming off the bench, Jet scored 32 points on 11/14 shooting (9/10 from beyond the arc) in just 25 minutes. The Mavs made quick work of the Lakers with a 122-86 series-ending win.
