Ty Lawson Completes 5-Point Play [VIDEO]

Just imagine what the Pistons would look like today if they had drafted North Carolina's Ty Lawson instead of Austin Daye from Gonzaga. Remember "All Daye"? Of course you do, he is the guy who has now played on four NBA teams.

Lawson is a point guard the Pistons could have built their team around. That's living in fantasy world -- the Pistons didn't take Lawson -- the Pistons got Daye, which got them Jose Calderon, which got them... umm, they got? My point exactly.

Last night Lawson completed a rare 5-point play. He made a three, was fouled on the shot then Chris Paul of the L.A. Clippers was called for a technical foul.

Have you ever seen a 5-point play before?
