[QUOTE="RegisteredUconn, post: 3962169, member: 1477"] You read that right. What's more, [B]it's the single most elegant play that ever will be performed because it is a perfect play[/B]. This play is so perfect, teams can't execute it even in practice like this ... running at half speed ... being guarded by chairs! But this isn't practice. This isn't even an exhibition game against a DII opponent. This isn't even a middle of the week, grind it out against a middle of the pack opponent in late January/early February. This isn't even Sweet Sixteen/Elite Eight regional play in the tournament. No, this play was executed in the game that carried the highest stakes: the National Championship. The opponent was so tough they were undefeated. And yet, under all that adversity, under all that pressure, against all that ability arrayed against them, they performed to perfection. If this were gymnastics, they would have been awarded a 10. Don't believe me? Check it out for yourself. [SIZE=2][Sorry but I don't know how to isolate the play but below is a link to the game. Find the point where there's about 15:12 or so to go in the second half (time remaining is shown at the bottom of the screen).][/SIZE] The play is set up when Hartley launches a 3 point shot. At 15:09 Dolson rebounds the miss and passes back to Bria. Hartley dribbles 4 times while the Huskies get into position. Jefferson, top of the key. Hartley and KML, opposite sides, foul line depth, beyond the arc. Dolson, baseline, KML side. Stewie, inside the key above foul line. Then it happens. 15:05 Hartley to Jefferson 15:04 Jefferson to KML 15:03 KML bounce to Dolson. Stewie cuts down the lane. 15:02 Dolson bounce to Stewie in the lane. 15:01 Stewie left-handed lay-up for the score. All five players touch the ball. 4 passes, 2 bounces, through the hoop. Nobody except Stewie takes a step. The prosecution rests. [MEDIA=youtube]yBB9Z-uw7fc[/MEDIA] [/QUOTE]
