On December 9, 2004, there was a basketball game between the Houston Rockets and the San Antonio Spurs. When they had only 41 seconds left, the score was 68:76; the Rockets was 8 points behind. More than half of the audience left the stadium, thinking that the Spurs is going to win.

But then Tracy McGrady in the Rockets, who was nicknamed T-Mac, began his outstanding performance. T-Mac scored 3 points. Then the Spurs gained two points from free throws, and made the score 71 to 78. Then T-Mac made a three-pointer plus one point by shooting a free throw, and the Spurs also got two more points.

T-Mac could’ve given up there, but he didn’t. He scored three more points, and when only 1.7 seconds were left, he made another three-pointer and won a come-from-behind victory by 81:80. Tracy alone scored 13 points in 35 seconds. This is called the T-Mac Time, and it is still one of the best moments of NBA basketball games in the United States.

As long as you don’t give up, there is a chance, and the moment you give up, the game is over. Is your game currently ongoing?
