OT: Are you kidding me? High school team knocks off opponent in a buzzer beater thriller
It's gonna be a long ride home for the kid who intercepted that inbounds pass.
why would you throw it up like that? You have the lead with 2 seconds to go just hold on to it they would have to foul anyways.
We hate Michigan State. We don't like Penn State too. We don't care for Minnesota, Wisconsin or Notre Dame but we all hate O-S-U.

Serves that player right for tossing the ball up like that.
But is it really "one of the best buzzer beaters ever" as so many people are saying? I say hell no
I think this one gives it a run for its money:
Off a turnover, from 3/4 court, 0.1 seconds left? Can you think of a better one?
lost the state championship last night on a nearly as miraculous shot, though no steal involved as time ran out. heart breaker, but kudos to the victors of both games, and kudos to the wolverines for beating sparty in a thriller.

Would have loved to see what Gus Johnson would have said if he was calling that game...

Reminds me of the 1986 Class B state championship where Chris Coles hit a 65 ft shot to win the game for Saginaw Buena Vista.
The coolest thing is that he made 10% of his team's points on one shot.

There was no three-pointer in Michigan high school basketball in 1986. What you saw was the ultimate 'long two'. (Also no shot clock -- so a pretty low score)
I was there for that game. Was Flint Beecher the opponent? Unless I'm confusing years, the Class A final that followed featured Detroit Northern's Derrick Coleman and Romulus's Terry Mills.
Charlie, of course, was a legendary HS coach at Saginaw before moving on to Central Michigan and Miami University. Love Charlie.
This is one of my all time favorites. Sean Randolph and the BV program was the truth. Charlie Coles was a great coach (Coached Thunder Dan Majerle at CMU too). We played in BV's league (White Pine Conference) and my team gave Mark Macon's epic team a run for its money (incidentally my team had an assistant coach by the name of T Crean).
That said, the fact that the NR team did not actually have the ball gives that one a leg up.
I would say the Celtics playoff game against the Pistons was comparable in "unlikely" victories, but it wasn't for the championship and the shots, while more of them, were not as difficult.
This one is ridiculous.
Be the change, I want you to be.
Isn't this New York high school basketball? I thought New Rochelle was a suburb of NYC
Yahoo! had a nice little write-up (LINK)
According to their article, that was a 55-footer from someone who was also the quarterback of the football team - Khalil Edney. His comment:
"I was just praying for it to go in," Edney told MSGVarsity, which was televising the game. "That's one of them last-second things you throw up, and it goes in."
That is the most unlikely, spectacular game-ender that I have seen, and congratulations to New Rochelle on winning the Class I-AA basketball championship for New York Section I (per the article, that was the ultimate result).

It looked like he didnt get the shot off in time. When I paused the video at 0.00, he still had contact with the ball. It was very close though. Try it and see what you think.
If at first you don't succeed, skydiving isn't for you.
The replay they kept showing in the video sure seemed to show the ball out of his hands with 0.1 on the clock.
I put up a tough front, but deep down I just want to be held.

The guy who intercepted the inbounds pass, if he REALLY wanted to avoid being fouled, just has to chuck the ball straight up into air about 20 feet and the game is over before the ball even lands. He's gotta feel terrible.


that's my high school. Won the state championship at the buzzer.
