It could be Summer League, preseason, regular season, the playoffs, or the NBA Finals.

Makes no difference to me.

For example, game winners will always rule.

Who doesn’t love a good old-fashioned game winner?

There’s just something about the moment that always delivers.

Take this shot from Seth Lundy from the Hawks/Pacers preseason game.

It may as well have been.

Your brain goes to dangerous places and there’s nothing wrong with getting a little irrational.

That’s what the preseason is for.

Do I know who Seth Lundy is?

He’s probably not even going to make the final Hawks roster.

But does that matter?

That’s the power of the game winner.

Then once the Hawks secured the ball, nobody panicked and rushed a bad shot.

The make was pure too, which makes it even better.

So, does the result of the game matter?

But preseason or not, that game winner ruled and that’s really all I care about.

As a Hawks fan, there was plenty more to be excited about.
