And then when they realized he didn’t travel it was “no way the clock started on time, you can’t turn and shoot in 0.8 seconds!”I distinctly remember Cinci fans being absolutely livid and claiming Jalen traveled.
I'm impressed by the attention to detail to the timing of the shot. That said, what's a "score bug" and did the "lark" appreciate how much work you put into this?The Cincy fans always point to the score bug and complain that the clock didn‘t start on time. But the score bug wasn’t synched up with the real clock. There was a lag of .2. So even though the game clock started on time it took two tenths for the score bug to reflect it.
For a lark back then I used a stopwatch (well, the timer on my phone - don’t own a stopwatch) and repeatedly tried to time how long it took from touch to release. I concluded It took about .65. Maybe sometimes .60 and sometimes .72, but the mean was .65.

Thanks for pointing that out, I never noticed that!I love watching the video. Other than the shot, I chuckle at the interanion between Jalen and Hamilton after the Cincy shot is made. Hamilton obviously wanted Jalen to inbound the ball. Both point at the ball for the other one to go get it, but the ball was closer to Hamilton and just Jalen walks up court......
Loved watching Jalen Adams.

Well, then there was that national championship thingy, too…
This is exactly how every interaction went with my friends and family. I think I posted this highlight on FB that day and it was every comment haha. I think this sentiment was even on local radioAnd then when they realized he didn’t travel it was “no way the clock started on time, you can’t turn and shoot in 0.8 seconds!”
