One moment in the game which sticks out was late in the third quarter when he truly showed his speed.
Ferguson did a pump-fake from the three-point line, hurled a pass out to Steven Adams who thread the needle as Ferg dashed across the baseline and went for a ferocious dunk. All of which happened in three seconds of play. It was incredible and just another reminder of his crazy athleticism.
