Was in the shower today and remembered the Charles Smith floater to beat Syracuse at the buzzer and remembering how happy I was in that moment.
So what other plays for you guys do that? Where you think of them randomly from time to time.
Others ones I thought of were 1. Perry Mcdonald beating Cuse the year before at the buzzer 2. Jeff shot versus Van 3. Wallace versus UNC But I won't name anymore. Yours?

1. Fred Brown's pass 2. Pat Jr's block 3. Roy's 3
I'll stop there as well. This should be fun and, probably, a bit painful....

An oldie to be sure, but Craig "Big Sky" Shelton jamming over Detroit's Terry Tyler at McDonough in the 1977-78 season still brings a tear to my eye.

1. Wallace's shot versus UNC 2. Nat Burton's buzzer beater to beat Arkansas in the NCAAs 3. Gharun Hester's 3 at UVA in the triple OT NIT win. I was in school and in attendance, give me a break! 4. Hibbert's 3 versus UConn 5. DaJuan Summers' 3 to beat Louisville and seal a 2008 Big East title - had an amazing view of it as it developed.

Demetrius Hunter's dunk on Eddie Griffin. Great call! That was vicious. Thanks for that reminder.

I have to Google what game it was but one of AI's putbacks is in the back of my mind now and he had a two-handed up and under slam that was completely unfair as well.

I still have trouble believing my eyes when I rewatch some of the plays he made. Physical talents just off the charts.

I have to Google what game it was but one of AI's putbacks is in the back of my mind . This one? Yes! And much better quality than the link I posted. It still looks impossible. I'd never seen, nor have I since, a person with that level of natural athletic ability.

There are many for me but I'll go with a few that I saw in person - Bowman's backdoor reverse dunk against #1 Duke. After that play I started believing we could actually pull off the upset and we did! - Monroe's full court bounce pass to Chris Wright for the (and 1) dunk against WVU in the 2010 BET Final. We obviously lost the game but the energy in the building was crazy after that play. Actually the crowd was electric all night. - Roy's 3 vs UConn - Jabril's dunk in the final mins of our last home game against Cuse

Definitely Smitty coast to coast at the Dome. I remember Big John running joyously off the court
