Not being one at all. Just trying to figure out what is so special? ESPN plays these kinds of plays every month with someone catching a half court shot and many times they are kids doing it. Interesting, but certainly not something I would be shocked by. But that is my take as it had nothing to do with officiating at all.

Peace

Meanwhile JRut couldn't make that shot if we gave him a 100 tries. Don't be a hater, that was pretty cool that he made it again with the news crew there.

Wouldn't try.

I can tell it is a slow part of the year and the off season. We find things cool that are clearly not to many.

I'd rather see stuff like this than seeing the myriad of pundits droning on and on about Carmelo Anthony, the Cavs....blah blah blah.

Draining the second shot was pretty cool...good for him. Almost 2 Million views!

It was a one in a million shot for a kid his age...and everyone else not named Lebron, to do it in a game. To do it again, ever, is impressive. He did it with cameras etc. Very impressive. Having said all that...he should have bought lottery tickets with that kind of luck instead of throwing the basketball...
