Derrick Rose did vintage Derrick Rose things Wednesday night against the Washington Wizards.

The Chicago Bulls point guard was heating up “NBA Jam” style in the first quarter of the Eastern Conference matchup, dominating to the tune of 17 points in the first 12 minutes of the game.

Three of those points were far more impressive than the rest.

With the clock winding down, Rose nailed a half-court jumper at the buzzer, and made it look like he had done it a thousand times in his career.

Rose finished the night with 32 points, draining a season-high six 3-pointers in the process, but it wasn’t enough as the Wizards hung on to defeat the Bulls 105-99.
