[QUOTE="HuskyHawk, post: 2207295, member: 1414"] A word on "The Shot". For those [U]who didn't see the game[/U], the play itself was [I]merely[/I] remarkable. But I've seen many amazing plays and shots over the years. The context is important. If it is available, I'd encourage you to watch the whole game. It was an [URL='http://www.nytimes.com/1990/03/23/sports/basketball-east-regional-last-second-shot-puts-uconn-in-the-clear.html']incredible game[/URL], with the highest highs, and lowest lows. A 19 point UConn lead at half. 17 seconds to go, UConn still up by two, and turns it over. Clemson makes a 3 to go up one for the first time since we can even remember. But that's not the Shot yet...oh no. Tate misses a shot and Scotty fouls the rebounder. He misses the 1-1, Burrell the rebound and calls time. 1.0 left. Now...we get the Shot. You have to understand the level of despair here. We had blown a 19 point halftime lead. We had even just blown our lead of two points and possession with 17 seconds left. UConn fans are as low as they can be when that pass was thrown [I]over Elden Campbell[/I]. Then the remaining context: that game sends us on to face Duke in the Meadowlands. Laetner, Hurley, Thomas Hill, and a one point overtime loss. [/QUOTE]
