Gone in 3.9 seconds: Where basketball took JamesOn Curry

HE'D REHEARSED THIS moment in his mind thousands of times.
Pop off the bench like you're sitting on a spring. Tear off your warm-ups, toss them aside and trot to the scorer's table. Lean against it? Sit on the floor? Kneel?
Pull the strings on your shorts tight and tuck in your jersey. Adjust your headband and make sure your shoes are tied tight. Not that tight.
Listen for your name echoing through the speakers, hoping the announcer says it correctly.
Checking in for the Clippers, JamesOn Curry.
Savor the moment. Look around the arena, and in this one, see the numbers hanging from the rafters. Maybe dream about yours hanging somewhere someday. Take a deep breath, snap back to the present and call out your assignment. Take your spot on the floor, wait for the whistle to blow, and officially begin your NBA career. Three-point-nine seconds are left on the clock.
You made it. You fulfilled a promise to yourself and your family. You are playing in the NBA.
INSIDE BOSTON'S TD GARDEN, the Los Angeles Clippers had just witnessed a one-point halftime lead transform into a five-point third-quarter deficit.
It is Jan. 25, 2010, and, headlined by Baron Davis, Marcus Camby and Chris Kaman, the Clippers are 20-23, four games out of the Western Conference's No. 8 seed. DeAndre Jordan is in his second year. They're one year away from Blake Griffin's debut, two years away from Lob City.
The Celtics are 28-13 and the juggernaut of the Eastern Conference -- led by Rajon Rondo, Ray Allen, Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett -- that would go on to lose in seven games to Kobe Bryant and the Los Angeles Lakers in the NBA Finals.
Rondo draws a foul with 3.9 seconds remaining in the third quarter when Clippers head coach Mike Dunleavy yells from his perch on the sideline.
"You know, if you think about it, I'm probably the highest paid player per second in NBA history."JamesOn Curry
