Once in a lifetime moment....I instantly knew this would be considered "the greatest game" of all time, and knew it would link Duke and Kentucky together forever. 26 years later those predictions looking pretty good...
Honestly, this might have been more difficult considering the pressure from the build up and get this-He not only made the shot but it was NOTHING BUT NET again! Wow!
This shot was more stressful than the damn tourney! You have to absolutely show it wasn't a one-off (wwhich I knew it wasnt)..and what does Christian do? Nothing but goddamn net. I love it. I can tell you what I was drinking, where I was watching the game, who was there, everything. Greatness stays with you even as an observer.
@@orangeandblackattack How many college championships did Pete Maravich win? Now that I leave you without arguments, I hope you won't write me any more nonsense again.
John Pelphrey's trash defense attempt is proof of it being a fluke. Watch the replay and watch #34. So afraid not to foul, he didn't even try to play defense.
I think Christian Laettner will be remembered like he was John Elway on the Basketball Court. He Always got it done when needed and Walked off DUKE into the Sunset aa A Winner like Elway did at Denver. Nothing But Respect.
I agree with all the comments here that Laettner was the greatest player in college basketball history. The accomplishments and clutch moments speak for themselves. But he’s a textbook case of the tremendous challenge of transitioning greatness in college to the pros. The almost nightly grind of an NBA season plus playoffs, as well as the constant media attention, requires a mental toughness very few have
A miss and some fool would think the real shot was luck. He had the interpretation on his legacy at stake and still said yes to K to do it. Not try it. Do it.

That is another clutch shot. He knows the crowd is waiting to erupt and if he tosses a brick it is a let down for everyone. Amazing.
Of course he made the shot. Again. Ever seem like some things are not of this world? This moment was one of them. I'll never forget it.

And he Swished it!!!
Me neither.

The dude does not have fear of failing...
Christian “Mr. Clutch” Laettner 🏀

He's owned that shot.
So cool. I love it!!
Christian Laettner because John Elway on the Basketball Court. Just Mr Cool and he walks off A WINNER.

best shot ever
Christian Leattner was the best basketball player in NCAA history.
Ok I cant go that far with Pistol Pete averaging 44 points per game with no 3-point line which would have made it 58 points game, so. lol

TRUTH!!!!
If this ain't proof that 'The Shot' was not a fluke, I don't know what possibly could be.
What?

Epic
Good thing he made that. Christian wasn’t covered. I bet he was just as happy as the original on that. Lots of pressure to recreate the moment.

So inspiring I remember watching that game live over in Spain or France or Italy I forget - I was a military man then
I have never seen this. So cool.

Repeat man :)
Very cool
Back in the fat when regular folks could actually go to an event in Cameron i think I paid 15$ for this
Just making a pass that far or even catching it would be difficult for some people

No way. I was there
What if he missed this time?
He just doesn’t, lol
