Celtics-Wizards: John Wall delivers amazing blind wraparound pass in Game 4
Washington's point guard somehow found Marcin Gortat for a layup
John Wall got off to a rough start in Game 4 on Sunday evening, missing each of his first nine shots. He didn't let that deter him from trying to make plays, however, as he showed late in the first half.
Iso'd against Isaiah Thomas at the top of the key, Wall made a quick crossover and then tried to drive down the middle of the lane, but Thomas actually did a pretty job of cutting off the path. And that's when Wall went into Wall-Star mode.
He made a quick spin move to get past Thomas, but was immediately met by Kelly Olynyk, who had come over to help. As the Celtics big man stepped up, Wall wrapped a pass around Olynyk's back to a cutting Marcin Gortat, whom Wall couldn't even see.
Catching the pass in stride, Gortat went right to the rim for the finish.

Sheesh.
I'm pretty sure this is exactly what Troop 41 had in mind when they said:
Everybody clear out, hand me the rock
Time winding down 3 seconds on the shot clock
Break the defense homeboy, I can't be stopped.
