Message: [QUOTE="oldude, post: 4001959, member: 7511"] No doubt that hitting “The Bounce” in a championship game would carry more weight. But it’s worth noting that the announcers calling the game immediately referred to “The Legend” and the gal’s play by play call was every bit as powerful as the Giant’s announcer’s call many years ago, excitedly repeating, “The Giants win the pennant!” For Paige’s shot, the announcer wonderfully held onto her last word as Paige’s shot bounced high off the rim until it went through the basket. “Paige lets it flyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!” What a wonderful real time call of a great shot. I also think degree of difficulty needs to be taken into consideration. While Thomson never hit a bigger HR, he did have 264 in his career. If Paige plays basketball for another 20 years, she may never hit another shot like The Bounce. Then again, we are talking about Paige…….. [/QUOTE]
