Caron Butler's call of Jalen's buzzer beater

[prankster]

Yeah there's no way to prove what I'm saying. I hope I'm wrong and he called it; I've just seen enough people post fake reaction videos before where they rewind and record what they claim to be a "live reaction" that I'm always skeptical.

You must wander around every December telling kids there is no Santa Claus....

No soup for you!

Sounded more like an exorcism than a celebration!!! Pretty sure he was real happy and glad we have all these legends following the program. Great support.

I hope the Big12 network signs Raftery so we can put some onions back in our games.

I hate to be that guy, buuuuuuuuuuuuut...I think Caron is punking us. He reacts before Cinci's 3 even goes through the hoop. He knew that was going in. I think he recorded this and posted a "reaction" video knowing what was going to happen.

I bet you think the locker room celebration was staged too

Wait, people actually thought that was live? I don't think anyone would preemptively film the end of a triple OT game with their camera phone. That game was way too tense.

I had just assumed he rewinded the game on his DVR and then relived for the camera what his reaction was at the time.

Any close game I'm watching where it comes down to a last possession I record live on my phone just in case something crazy happens. I then edit and crop the video for the crazy moments.

Not remotely unusual for someone to be recording it live for social media purposes.

5-10 years ago you have a valid point but not today

Some of you guys are nuts. That freak out at the end was genuine. Caron's a baller, not an actor.

I thought it was real but it did sound like he groaned a little early on Cincinnatis three. Either way cash Adams is nasty

 

[Bryan Lord]

Why go through the trouble to fake it? He's not running for office

I thought he was just groaning that the ball got kicked out for an open three. I sure as hell groaned early when Jamelle Horne launched that last second three in 2011.

Yeah, I definitely reacted out loud to the offensive rebound, then went dead silent as soon as Johnson caught the kick-out. I knew that was gonna be pure.

It's the play before the play that kills you. Caron's a pro, so he obviously knows that (and has forgotten more about hoops than anybody on this silly board will ever know).

And he was waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay calmer and more prophetic than every single person on this board. Mojo

But it was awesome to hear the fan in him right at the end. Love that our guys still support the program years and years after their time.

i think its clearly staged, but i still loved it
