The point from the gif you posted perfectly encompasses the feel of the entire match.

Get this: his overall record in all matches on clay is something like 380-34!

Well, Iverson. But Kyrie is the best since Allen at finishing from seemingly-impossible angles - Nash was masterful at this as well.

Rondo was a master of this as well, made even better by his huge wingspan. He hit from angles that shouldn’t have been possible by putting the perfect spin on the shot. One example:
