Message: [QUOTE="Conndog, post: 4471436, member: 5939"] Loved that mention of El-Amin in Pittsburgh! UConn was losing to Pitt the entire game in one of those brutal ugly battles, and El-Amin had been jeered all night long by the Pitt fans. In the last minute, Pitt had enough of a lead so that all they had to do was inbound it, but UConn put on great pressure & Pitt turned it over. Then, El-Amin took over, drove into the lane and hit a spinning turn around runner for the winning basket. El-Amin jumped up on the score’s table and pointed repeatedly at the Pitt fans while cursing them- great stuff! His teammates and Coach Calhoun got him off the table finally, and you hear the incredulous announcer keep saying, “What a win! What a win!” No one had his moxie- one of my all-time favorite players.
