The Biggest Shot in NBA HIstory

[phaedrus]

Jordan over Russell?

Ray Allen from the corner?

Magic's sky-hook?

Nope. It was Kyrie's step-back over Steph - according to math.

Jordan over Russell should be disqualified from consideration b/c Jordan got away with an egregious, obvious offensive foul to get the shot off.
Kyrie's shot was pretty awesome though!!!
ed: ok, so i watched the video and it's not as egregious as i thought, but he still used an open hand to push off of Russell's hip before rising to shoot.

Those were some epic games between the Malone-Stockton Jazz and the Bulls teams with Jordan and Pippen. The shot over Russell cemented Jordan's legend, even if he pushed off.

A very analytical look at Kyrie Irving's game 7 winning shot. It makes sense to me.

I worked for the NBA at the time and was at the game. Utah Jazz fans remind me a lot of the Cameron Crazies. Really knowledgeable fans and very, very loud. That was Jordan's last game as a Bull and was to be his last game in the NBA until he came out of retirement to play for the Wizards (as a shell of his former self).
