@@shorey66 Correct. If you win lotto or or a prize in my country you get every cent America is different. Think if you take like a 10m win over 10 years so like a mill a year you get taxed less too.
Just a reminder that they tried to stiff the $1 000 000 guy and Jordan (and others in the team) made it right. The guy took the money and made it intergenerational wealth. Like at least one of his kids ended up a doctor thanks to it. Respect for the shot but more respect for using that cash to lift your whole damn family.
It was in the insurance contract that anyone who played organized basketball above the high school level was prohibited from participating and he played in college, so the insurance company that was supposed to pay the winner wasn't being shady. He technically shouldn't have been allowed to attempt it. And Jordan and the other players didn't make it right, the sponsors of the event, Coca-Cola and the restaurant and the Bulls organization, paid him.
It wasn't Jordan that made it right it was the Bulls organization. The insurance company required to make the payoff, American Hole ‘n One of Oakwood, Ga., reportedly balked after Calhoun admitted to having played college basketball, a violation of the rules. The sponsors of the event--the Bulls, a soft-drink company and a restaurant chain--said they would cover the prize if the insurance company refuses to pay.
Shoutout to Michael Jordan & other Bulls players for making sure the Bulls paid that man his milli when they tried to back out of it. Also the $75k hook shot + Lebron hug was craaaaaaaazyyyyyyy!
@@blairpenny1526 If I remember right, the Bulls had paid an insurance company to take on the risk that someone might hit that shot and they reneged, saying the guy had played some organized ball at some point and was therefore ineligible. While the Bulls and the ins. co. argued, Jordan made sure the guy got paid. Not sure who ultimately picked up the bill when it was over though.
My completely vibes-based take is that your team has bad chemistry if you're not celebrating one of your fans making a half-court shot. That shit should be joyous.
For some perspective, LBJ has about 40,000 career points and made $480M, which is $12,000 per point or $36,000 for a half-court three-pointer. The guy he hugged made twice as much... but only once.
My first nba game, Nuggets at pacers, a guy hit a half court shot for 10k. They gave him 2 shots originally but he was so close on the 2nd they gave him one more shot and he hit it. The stadium went crazy lol
Just came here to say that you are in the S tier of highlight editors, and potentially the best basketball editor of all time. Thank you for bringing me sustained entertainment!
Man in all fairness, all these shots should be $50K or more you gotta look at the scope of the shot. You’re on national tv and The NBA is a multibillion dollar organization 😂
I can't believe anyone actually makes these shots. The amount of pressure as a civilian getting out there and making a shot that most NBA players can't make on the first try is crazy.
I wanted to do the math on that first one because it is a lot more than $4.25. It is $4.25 for the whole audience. So I found the game, it was 11/20/2017 Jazz at 76ers. The attendance was 20,587 (he also had to hit a layup and a free throw in addition, but that was cut from the clip). So he actually won $87,494.75. He just didn't get to use all $87,494.75, but Chick Fil A paid that much for his half court shot.

Dude played it as smooth as can be. Letting that other hand dangle.
I totally missed that first time around I thought that was his girl lmfaooooooooo. he hugged her cheeks too im dead
I mean, the lady with the mic was just excited he made it, that's all. I wouldn't read too much into it haha

I'd take that 75k and use it to pay a lawyer and sue LaBron for a cool mil for assault and battery + another $500k for pain and suffering. Cha-ching!

I remember reading they tried to cheat the last guy out of the money smh
Because he played in college? That’s a dumb reason, just give him the 1 million
yeah they obviously thought he wouldnt make it and then they tried to find any bs reason to cancel it. he ended up getting 50k every year for 20 years
Yeah then mike said pay that man or imma give yall front office hell and guess what the bulls did 🤫
be like mike. mike sticks up for the little guy

2:52 no running start, no one handed chuck, the guy just took a stationary logo 3 and swished it😂

Who was that hottie though?
Kevin Harlan is crazy for that 😂
"Look, he ran to her first!"
"No sir, you won a car"

i love that clip so much
I was at the 1 million dollar shot game, the sponsor wouldn't pay up, and Michael Jordan personally made sure the team paid instead.

The house always wins.
The sad part is he got lucky too. Scratchers in most states pay less than $0.57 for every $1 spent.
I’d say that’s pretty good considering it was $1000 worth of scratch off tickets and he won almost half that amount scratching them.
“Most people call me robbie, but you can call me anytime”

3:20 why is nobody wanna celebrate w him😭?
😂😂
He got denied twice by security for wanting high fives from the players 😂

Yea that was corny

The last guy got a million dollars AND a hug from the GOAT.
1:05 2016 76ers season tickets is a PUNISHMENT

$100000000 halfcourt shot❌
Hug from Jordan ✅

how nobody talking abt this more, its hilarious like what now he just comes home has tater tots every day

My fav is the guy at 3:25 being waved off by security from approaching the players. LOL.
My first nba game, Nuggets at pacers, a guy hit a half court shot for 10k. They gave him 2 shots originally but he was so close on the 2nd they gave him one more shot and he hit it. The stadium went crazy lol
It's interesting that there's so much disparity in rewards for the exact same shot
That 1 million shot got some lore behind it
0:52 Im gonna need a physics professor to explain how is is possible
Its not. There are magnets. The ball literally does not bounce at all
It flew directly into the 90 degree angle between the rim and backboard with enough momentum to lodge itself there.
