That's semantics.

If you're shooting a shot in the last 24 seconds to take the lead, you're shooting for the game. The other team may come back and make a shot on top of yours, but that doesn't reduce the clutchness that was required to make your shot.

Just because everyone forgets about it doesn't mean it wasn't significant.
