Butter

I don't have cable, so maybe folks who do and can still stand to watch Sportscenter have seen this a hundred times already, but for the rest of us... Holy Fuck.

This cat hit a 90-foot buzzer-beater in overtime to win the game. Nothing but net. Craziest thing is, the way it comes off his fingertips, it looks like a little more than luck. Dude's got touch.

Here's the proof. Some local news tool got him to re-create the shot, he hits it on his tenth try (calling it in the air,) and the first eight aren't that far off.

Comments:
No idea. I've never seen any good TJ clips. Maybe somebody on Hornfans?

That Baylor dunk was sick, but the nastiest one I ever saw him do was in an early season game against Prairie View A&M or some other scrub school.

He was pressing in the full-court, tipped a pass way up in the air, skyed straight up over his victim - jump ball style - to corral the steal, took one dribble, and threw down a huge 2-handed jam. One of the most amazing displays of athleticism I've ever seen.
 
Yo, at least you could mention that the shot so labeled as "butter" was jacked by a kid from no other than mighty Guilford College...the "little nowhere of a school" that launched the career of Lloyd "World B" Free.
 
"Yo," anon, I'm familiar with Guilford. My cousin played soccer there, as did another good friend of mine.

I had no idea World B. Free played there though, that's awesome. He must have passed even less back then than when he was in the league.
