There were a mere 1.4 seconds remaining in Game 1, cutting Pistons rookie center Mehmet Okur's options down to one or none Sunday.

The Pistons were trailing 76-74 to the Nets in the Eastern Conference finals and Okur knew the inbounds pass should be coming to him.

All he had to do is, in the space of a heartbeat, somehow catch the ball and get it into the basket in a time-defying motion.
