PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 17 (Ticker) -- Mike Miller scored just five points, but they came at the perfect time for the Memphis Grizzlies.
Miller had his only two baskets of the game and a free throw in the final 2:47 as the Grizzlies rallied for a 91-87 victory over the Philadelphia 76ers.
Forced to handle the ball more than usual due to the absence of point guard Jason Williams in the second half, Miller delivered the clutch go-ahead basket for the Grizzlies in a game-ending 13-3 run.
The 76ers held an 84-78 lead on a jumper by Glenn Robinson with 5:44 remaining, but scored just three points the rest of the way. Memphis pulled within 84-83 on a basket by Miller with 2:47 left. Allen Iverson responded with a driving layup and was fouled by Miller, but missed the free throw with 2:28 remaining.
Pau Gasol hit a jumper and a driving basket on Memphis' next two possessions, giving the Grizzlies an 87-86 advantage with 1:04 left.
Iverson had a chance to regain the lead for Philadelphia, but hit just 1-of-2 free throws after being fouled with 54 seconds remaining.
Miller then gave Memphis the lead for good. Using a screen by Gasol, Miller drove around Robinson from the left side and hit a one-hander in the lane over Derrick Coleman with 37 seconds left.
After Iverson, who led Philadelphia with 34 points, missed a runner in the lane, Eric Snow fouled Bonzi Wells, who converted 1-of-2 free throws for Memphis with 23 seconds remaining.
Miller added a free throw with 19 seconds left following a missed 3-pointer by Coleman.
Williams experienced blurred vision in his right eye at halftime and did not play in the second half. |
