The heart-stopping final seconds of Carmelo Anthony's freshman title run need a deep rewind 

What u know about akiba? I used to work there lol. It's called Jack Barrack or something like that now

@@itzlevelz FCS class of '97. I just knew that they didn't have the best basketball team at the time either and I think we lost to them by 20.

George School grad here. Don’t think we beat y’all once in my time on the team.

@@gregorym-f4842 Were you there during the Hakim Warrick / Mustafa Shakur years or the De'Andre Hunter era?

Friends’ Central ‘21 grad here. I didn’t know Hakim Warrick obviously but I’ve never heard a teacher say anything bad about him in my time at the school. All around great guy it seems like and I just found out he turned our basketball program around.

This was my favorite Kansas team of all time. I was 11; I was told it was too late, and I needed to go to bed. I had a small battery powered radio that I remember putting into a shoebox to listen to the end of the game, because it sounded like the radio call was coming from inside the Super Dome. The ending broke my heart, as did Roy Williams' leaving afterwards, but I still remember that March Madness and that game with fondness.

I was at my dorm away from my mom who we watched every game together. I said the same thing...we did it...

I literally forgot who you were talking about halfway through your post. He is absolutely forgotten

@@IAmTheDawn try harder

I'll never forget him killing that dude 😮

This may be true, but he’s still a 1st ballet Hall of Famer at the end of the day. Off of just his NBA career alone.

What’s the Triple Crown? NCAA, NBA, & what? Olympic gold medal?

@@MSUHitman yes, Olympic gold

He is a triple crown champion though? Syracuse, USA, Lakers.

@@sidthekid1678 He was not on the Lakers squad that won the championship with LeBron a few years back

I've been saying the Bills Collapse needs to happen as well! I wouldn't mind seeing them do a Collapse on the Falcons Post Super Bowl 51. Kind of like a sequel to their history of the Falcons videos. Throw in the Chicago White Sox post 2005 collapse as well.

Man Utd v Bayern Munich in the champions league final in 1999 would be an even better episode of rewinder than the Istanbul "miracle". Because of how much bigger that game was, it being the first (and to date only) treble in English football history, and how they went from going into stoppage time at the end of the 2nd half losing, and within about 2 mins turned it around to actually be WINNING the match with two goals in back to back minutes which rarely happens in general, let alone right at the very end of the biggest football match in football, the champions league final. And also the man utd team was completely destroyed with injuries and suspensions from red cards etc, so half the starting line up was players playing out of position because there was nobody else available, like giggs was playing on the right wing if I remember right, with jesper blompquist of all people playing left wing, Beckham was playing as a central midfielder which he'd never done before (he only started playing there full time years later when he joined real Madrid, before then he was always on the right wing). So there shouldn't have been any way man utd could have beaten Bayern, especially considering Bayern were ALSO trying to win a treble and if they'd won that final then they would have sealed it, just like man utd they were 1 match away from winning it, and so they weren't just any team, not even any typical champions league finalist, they were just as strong as utd really, and weren't destroyed by injuries and suspensions. So how on earth could man utd have actually won that match? Literally everything was stacked against them. Yet they managed it, all the same. It's still the greatest comeback victory in football history. And was way more of a big deal than most champions league/European Cup finals. It's never been done before or since, by an English team, and only like 3 or 4 other teams in all of Europe have ever done it in the history of football, too. One being bayern themselves, years and years later, another being Inter Milan when they were managed by Mourinho, and Barcelona under Guardiola. So, all huge huge teams, teams who are in the discussion for best ever in the history of the sport, when simply just winning a regular champions league isn't enough to automatically put you in that conversation. And I think Celtic when they won it in the 60s, which actually is probably the most stunning thing to ever be done in football in general because all the players in that celtic squad were from within like 5 miles of celtic's stadium. That just isn't a thing anymore, these days. No big team even has all the players in their squad be from that country, let alone be from the same city as the club. But that was generally a lot more common back then, all the players being locals, it was before big money had really taken over the sport. It wouldn't happen these days. But yeah, man utd winning it in the modern era of football with an injury-wracked squad is absolutely stunning. There's no achievement like a treble. It's next to impossible to achieve even at the best of times, let alone when half your first team can't play in the final. It'd be like in American football if, I dunno, Tom Brady and 7 or 8 other starters had to sit out of the superbowl because of injuries and suspensions, and yet the patriots still won it anyway. It's the thing that put Sir Alex Ferguson over the top to become the best manager in the history of the sport. Managers who win multiple champions leagues aren't automatically the best ever. Plenty of bad managers have won champions leagues before, like Di Matteo with Chelsea. Has he even has a job since he got sacked by them? But to win multiple champions leagues AND at least one of them being a treble which is more difficult to do than just about anything, then yeah you are always going to be in that conversation. It's very telling how none of the big money teams who pay to win, like Man City, Chelsea, PSG, etc, have managed to win a treble, even though they have significantly more money than anybody else. Because there's some things in football you just can't buy. Teams like man City say at the beginning of every season that they're gonna win a quadruple, and everyone laughs at these teams, and then everyone moves on and those teams then pretend they never said it, because they invariably fail when they say something like that. It's tempting fate, really. Don't jinx your season before its even begun. But some football clubs just seem to run on pure arrogance.

Great list, I would just add Ken Griffey Jr to the Untitled list

@@duffman18 easy there, United Fan. Take 7 seconds to catch your breath.

Now people are saying dads instead of dad. Or moms.

@@larosa823 ok

Such great points. If Roy wins this title, it's just hard to imagine he goes back to UNC...Maybe he still does, but coming off a title, you'd have to think KU would've given him a lifetime contract. As a heels fan, I'm actually grateful for this Kansas loss, because it basically secured Roy coming back, where he got us three more titles.

If Roy doesn't go to UNC, I cant imagine how many more titles Duke would have as opposed to 5. Thanks to Roy, UNC outnumbered Duke 3 to 2 in titles since he got there.

I always think about how we view Jim if Keith Smart’s shot doesn’t fall. Does he stay forever and after winning two titles what do we think of him. While he’s a great figure of college basketball he isn’t the one of the greats but with two titles what does that mean?

Yes, he does. He left for two reasons. One is that he didn't like the changes in the administration at KU after he'd turned UNC down three years before. The second is that Dean Smith asked him to come back, and he couldn't say no, even after Kansas fired the AD Roy didn't like. He was going back to UNC, win or lose that night. He would have rather gone back with a win, though. Kansas fans didn't forgive him until they kicked his butt a few years later in another Final Four. Roy, a class act, then pulled for KU when they won the title two nights later. It all worked out. Roy won three titles at UNC and Kansas has two under Bill Self (and really could claim 2020, since there was no tournament and they won the polls).

Based on a book I had read called the Legends Club, Roy said he wanted to win a title at Kansas before leaving which is why he turned them down the first time. He probably still would've left, but I can't tell you for sure.

I miss the old Big East. As a 'Cuse fan I was always happy to see UCONN win, as long as it wasn't against Syracuse. Very happy UCONN won it all this year. Congrats :-)

Game changed when Wallace foul'd out. 2-3 of the fouls were weak calls.

"Kept it close vs Indiana" is also a weird description. Had a 6-8pt lead most of the 2nd half and missed multiple wide open 3s that would've clinched it.

The black ones too 🔥

REDEEM TEAM 🙌🏻

Delonte West & Jameer Nelson broke out the yr after. They went to the Elite 8 and lost to Ok St

@@xandercrews4729 they were still well known that year, they were like 6 seed? Or 11. Can’t remember. The next year is when they were a 1 seed yes, but they were still balling in 03

Same. I was like “when are they going to get to the terrible FT shooting from Collison.”

i love this

At 3 years old? You remember watching and understanding a basketball game and its significance as a 3 year old? I HIGHLY doubt that

@@Shmuel420 lmao I don’t gotta qualify myself but it’s one of my first childhood memories. call cap if you want but that’s you dawg

@@Parkafterrdark fair enough

definitely

closest? he literally won

@@bananabonzai I think he’s talking about the NBA championship

He literally raised the trophy dumbass.

​@@dafuzzbear7711 He's a dumbass. Don't save these hoes.

And you will be forgotten

Maybe football sooner than BBall, but I think both teams are going to be good, very good, very soon.

Because he reached his prime in tandem with the kid from Akron.

Derrick Rose missing those free throws also helped.

@@bstove24 First off, to be fair To Rose he only missed the one free throw. Chris Douglas-Roberts missed a few more. Rose's miss just gets remembered more because his was the last missed attempt before Chalmers hit the three to tie. And he is the more famous player between himself and Douglas-Roberts. Second, I was being a little sarcastic when I said that if Kansas had hit its free throws they would've won. Now that was *a* factor in the Orange winning, but not the only factor. In a game that close everything matters on both ends of the floor for both teams and from beginning to end. That Syracuse player had to make one hell of block in order to help secure the win. Just like Kansas had to convert on the offensive end in the last couple of minutes in order for the missed free throws to matter.

@@stonecoldku4161 Oh I agree that '08 national title was an amazing game to watch. I also remember Steph Curry leading Davidson to the elite eight and almost upsetting Kansas.
