I couldn't agree more, and yes, this was us at IRI. Our human player scored a two-pointer as we were triple-balancing. We were all hooked on the bridge hoping that the stinger worked, so we didn't even notice. However, we won the match by two points, ultimately thanks to the human player. What a rush!
