    Any idea who is doing the piece? ESPN rolled out 30 for 30 as a showcase for film directors.

That 23 years after hitting his miracle shot, he still doesn't drive through the state of Kentucky? What if I told you that the most hated college basketball player of all time was also the best? Never Too Laettner: A 30 for 30 Special."

    From what I've seen the 30 for 30 is on the Kentucky game not just Laettner, Probably similar to Wojciechowski's book.

    In either case, they should just title it "ESPN's 30 for 30 Presents: 20 for 20."

    I was all set to declare Brevity's voiceover narration as the winner of the thread and then Mal chimed in with that 20-for-20 title... wow, this is a close one! Ya'll are both showing LaettnerInABigGame-esque performances here.

    Why are you wasting time here when you could be wasting it by listening to the latest episode of the DBR Podcast?

    Now that's a spork-worthy zinger.

    Let's give some credit to the OP for correctly spelling both Wojohowski and Laetner.

    Although I'm pretty sure the link has been posted here before, Laettner's interview of Mike Krzyzewski never gets old. Here's Part I. If you watch it, Youtube will offer a link to Part II. The mutual respect is evident.

    Let's just say that my post was Grant Hill's pass, and Mal's post was Christian Laettner's shot. (Which would make you Crying Thomas Hill.)

    I'm also assuming that they will gloss over that the love tap was done in retaliation for a cheap shot push by Farmer a couple plays prior. (bias intended)

    Also, in case someone would like to watch the game again in it's entirety --> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FDlWZ1vC9Ww

    If Kentucky fans go to hell, Laettner's shot is playing on repeat on the jumbotron there.
