My best buzzer beater was an AAU game years ago. Forget if it was tied, -1, or -2. Team had throw-in 84ft away from its basket with less than 2.0 or something like that. They actually ran a play in its backcourt so when A2 caught the throw-in he was curling into his 60ft heave with full momentum. Went straight in. No doubt he released it on time. Opposing coach was arguing that the player travelled before releasing the shot.
