John Thompson was all class after the game. He said to Brown "If that's the worst mistake you make in your life, then you're going to live a wonderful life".
and two years later, they won it all together.
One of the greatest college coaches ever
@@Eli-ss9gj John Wooden, Coach K, Coach Thompson, and Coach Knight might be my Mt Rushmore. Rip would be near the top as well.
@@ethanweeter2732 izzo there
@@ethanweeter2732 who's the best
Anyone else still think the '80s was only 20 years ago and not 40 lol.
After watching the movie "Air", this is the must-see clip to witness greatness again.
Watching that now. Great movie
Exactly.
Yeah I never realized he was calling for the ball ahead of time like that. I always thought he was just standing there and as a last resort they threw it to him and decided to just shoot it. That movie really pointed out his mentality of not shying away in big moments.
Watching it rn😊
Legit just watched it
What a shot by Michael Jordan! He's surely gonna make the NBA someday.
Even if he does, he’s prob gonna be a bust smh
I doubt he’s gonna make it tbh dosent have a skill set that translates well to the pros
Bro get outa here bro pat ewing gonna dominate i see rings in pats future. Jordan not so much
@@thereason7860 Frr I been telling people that
yeah fr, don’t see the hype around this jordan kid, he aight, but couldn’t see him in the nba
Weird to think this is almost 40 years ago, time flies
Yep
Yeah I know right?
Like this gonna be 100 years old soon
@@ColinGclicks ???
@@Jokeryz what do u mean ???
“That shot turned me from Mike... to Michael Jordan.”
Great Memory to relive. So fortunate to have been in attendance at that game. My brother was there to root for Georgetown and when they beat Louisville he met a lady from Louisville who gave him her floor seats. He offered me his upper level seats and I and some friends drove down from college that night. Had no idea who Michael Jordan was or that I was watching him make a shot that would launch his career to become the greatest basketball player ever!
Awesome memory sir, thanks for sharing💯👌🏾
Great story, thanks for sharing your experience. You should watch the movie Air, if you haven't done already.
That Mike fella is gonna be somebody one day!
@TheRealist 811 I agree, there was nothing special there, just a lucky jump shot at the end. he's too skinny. I think the Pat Ewing kid is one to watch. The Worthy guy won't make it to NBA cuz he can't hit free throws. seemed like nice kids though
Give him some time guys he has potential to be the 🐐
@@papigabry You talking about Matt Doherty right? Yea, I guess he could be. I'll be watching for him
@@isaachaze1 No he's talking about MJ
Oh you’ve been hibernating for way too long buddy-boy
Patrick Ewing was Pat Ewing
Michael Jordan was Mike Jordan.
Strange times
Mikey Jordan
The NBA talent in this game was insane. 4-5 HOFers, including the GOAT. One of the best big men of all time or at least of his time, and Worthy was the sixth man/starting forward for the showtime Lakers. Ewing became the anchor of multiple good to great Knicks teams and Sam was no slouch.
Mickey Jordan
I'm glad captain Marvel didn't stick! 😂
Apparently Jordan was called Mike all the way up until this shot 😅
“That’s the shot that turned me from ‘Pat’ to ‘Patrick’ “ - Patrick Ewing
The Shot that started Michael Jordan's path to Greatness
Underrated play no one talks about is MJ standing in the lane right before Brown turns it over, him doing that blocks the Brown's pass lane so he panics and throws it to worthy.
Thanks. Michael had to make sure.
James Worthy was the “IT” factor back then but this is the same day that a young up and coming “Mike” became “The Michael Jordan, His Airness.”
I was 14 then and suffered through the loss in 77 and year before to Indiana....thought we had lost it again...when Jordan hit that jumper my whole house erupted...the roof almost came off.....that is still my favorite shot of all time......at a young age and really getting into unc sports....
me too. i was 11 when i watched this game live, and was a diehard carolina fan (living in north carolina). those were the days.
I'm watching AGAIN because my daughter got accepted to and WILL BE ATTENDING UNC Chapel Hill! She was always a Duke fan..but I brought her home in UNC onesie!👣
@@booger1966Glad you turned her to UNC. I hate Duke, always have!
Boy, this takes me back.... no 3 point line, no shot clock. I'm glad to be old enough to have watched Jordan and Worthy in college and in the NBA!!
Without a shot clock, would it not have made more sense for them to run the time down a little more before Jordan took the shot? It seemed to me that 14 seconds was time enough for the team to get down the other end and potentially score. I’m from the Uk, completely ignorant. 🥴
@@timid3000 it probably would have been better but they might not have gotten a better look than that
02.37 greatest pass in ncaa's history.
Here after watching Air. Wow
The game that finally made Dean Smith a national champion and silenced all the doubters
At that time Dean Smith was like a God in NC. That shot that MJ hit elevated him, because of what that shot meant for Dean Smith. If MJ had never played another game of basketball, that one game winning shot guaranteed his legendary status FOREVER. So whatever MJ accomplished after that was just icing on the cake. Thank you for making that shot Michael.
Nobody was talking about MJ so much as Brown passing to Worthy and about James Worthy. If MJ never played again we wouldn't even know whe he was unless you were a NC fan. He wasen't the GOAT back then.
@@luthergriffith5641 I guess you never heard of Len Bias. And the video was titled " Michael Jordan's game winner ..." The only reason that anybody is interested in that championship game 38 years later is because of MJ.
I'm saying what we was was talking about back then
@@drummajor Facts
@@drummajor Also another thing that's often forgotten is that after the errant pass, James Worthy bricked the free throws that would have extended the margin for UNC, preserving MJ's shot as the winning score.
John Thompson a hall of fame coach was amazing. Brown made that errand pass to Worthy it was terrible. I was a Junior at UNC and was fortunate to be at the game because the guy that supposed to be there caught mono. So he gave me the whole package . What they don't show is Thompson not screaming and hollering at Brown but as a Dad he hugged him and whisper something in his ear . What Brown said he told him we will get them before Ewing leaves. A very powerful moment .
Good memory
The biography of Michael Jordan brings me here. Great final!
book by David halberstam?
@@marcoveroni3811 nope, by Roland Lazenby
The autobiography of John Thompson brought me here.
I still contend that was Jordan's biggest shot in his life. Most people knew The Bulls would beat the Jazz. We had no idea how this game would end.
One of the greatest shots in NCAA history
Came here after watching “Air.”
What an incredible steal by James Worthy 😂
That’s how he tells it to his grandkids 😂
A picture perfect jump shot, Mr Jordan the G.O.A.T.
This is why I love RUclips…I don’t recall watching this game. Seeing it now, perhaps for the first time, awesome
2:37 imagine I’d Twitter was around back then 😂😂
they didnt have the 3 point line yet, time flies indeed
I never noticed how different the game looks when there is no 3 pt line. The spacing is so tiny compared to the current era of basketball
Yes,They also had to make the shot clock because of dean smith,They would get the lead and hold with the four corners
Definitely some legends in that game!!
Probably
2:37 imagine the hate he got after that 💀
I can’t imagine lol 😂
He looked away for a split second and his teammate and the opponent switched places 😂 so unlucky if you ask me
that's doable playing street ball because you gotta remember team mates faces, at least in organised games you can't accidentally pass to the wrong colour... or so i thought lol
His coach said "If that's the worst mistake you ever made in life, you lived a good life". 2 years later the Hoyas won it all so he wasn't a goat for very long
Wow he threw it to the wrong dude
Rookie mistake.
The wrong dude said pass it to me.
#playGroundBall
Jordan wearing converse before his sneakers impacted the world
I was 10 and this was the first game I can remember watching. I'm 50 now and I've never waivered from love of UNC basketball. I'm so proud of them this year. They might not have taken home the title but a Final 4 team and sending K out with his final loss at home and in the NCAA is a memory that will last every bit as long as the memory of this game did.
Came to see this after seeing Air, what shot
Nobody knew how great he would become.
I think Dean Smith did....look forward to Hubert Davis taking the head coaching job and wish him much success , I think Coach Smith is pleased
Worthy did. That’s why he kept the ball from him.
That turnover was an underrated “choke” moments
everybody has always talked about Webber's fatal "timeout" but hardly anybody talks about Fred Brown's "nice pass" to James Worthy... haha
Exactly he had the open shot when he faked the pass he was scared😂
@@kaspafischer To be fair, Brown helped the Hoyas win it all 2 years later. He at least got redemption.
Chris Paul like
I recall that turnover getting the Bill Buckner treatment with constant replays for a few years until the the actual Bill Buckner play and then Chris Webber. Also it seems like as Jordan became more of an icon, this game went from the the Fred Brown gaffe game to the Jordan shot game. I had actually forgotten about Jordan making that shot until I saw one of those ESPN sportscentury documentaries in the late nineties where they spent 10 minutes talking about Jordan's shot and totally cut out everything that happened after that. As you can see in this video, the shot was with more than 15 seconds left. I don't recall any other famous game-winner with close to that much time left. This one is only a big deal because Jordan made it.
I wish I was watching when a legend was born!! Jordan has been hitting clutch shots to win championships before Lebron was born #respect youngster!!
the basketball gods wouldn't allow any of Worthy's free throws to go in. it had to be MJ's game winner that were the final and deciding points. any NBA player who gets 6 titles(and doesn't have an ncaa title), this is Jordan's tie breaker, his 7th major title
He was calm the whole time even as a freshman that why he the goat!
The sound of the net when Jordan makes that shot sounded so wet. In a place where there's so much noise the crowd, the band and it's crazy you can hear the swoosh so clear when Michael hits that shot. I swear it's the most beautiful sound in basketball when it goes through hitting nothing but net.
A nice shot but nothing like his last shot vs the jazz that was amazing
The rest was history after this shot!
Been a die-hard Heels fan since the late 70s. This year was the first I did the NCAA bracket with my schoolmates in H.S. Only time in my life I got all teams right up until the 4 & only the second time I picked the champ.
gotta chuckle at Matt Doherty not passing the ball to a wide open MJ at 2:24 and then asking for a pass back at 2:28 just when MJ was taking that jumpshot.... LOL
Doherty .519% field goal percentage that year
Jordan was .534%
Not much difference
That picture in description is awesome! Eyes,follow thru!
Still remember watching this game! I was about 15. I never jumped so high when MJ made that shot. All the news media talked about before game was Patrick Ewing.
Air brought me here
No one knew that skinny kid would have been a legend and The 🐐 of nba and basketball
Who's here after watching Jordan's the last dance?
I am!
Perminjo Latorre they left out that pass
@@bradycook8254 they underestimated the GOAT
what a shot! www.horschgallery.com/chicago-bulls/vintage-michael-jordan-at-north-carolina-winning-shot
Who’s here because of AIR?
Me

Good documentary
Me ❤
I have a poster of MJ shooting that game winner @17 seconds. Finally got around to seeing the actual play tho.
1982. Seems like this time never existed. So long ago. I was 5 years old. The good ol’ days. No cell phones. No RUclips. No computers. Just stickball in the street. Walking to a friend’s house and knocking to see if anyone was home. Picking raspberries at Kaki’s house. Life was much better then.
Best of luck to Hubert Davis, I think Coach Smith is smiling !
Man this Mike Jordan guy might get drafted.
meh.... he might go 3rd, maybe
My great Uncle Jamie Perry drove the bus in 82’ for the Tarheels. I had always known this. It wasn’t until a few years ago at his funeral that I learned that he was asked by Dean Smith to sit court side at this game.
I will always remember that championship game because it the game of the century.
Matt Daugherty said he was supposed to take the last shot that Michael Jordan made. If that would have happened Georgetown would have been 1982 champs
Nice opinion but Doherty had a .519 field goal percentage that year (Mikes was .534). Either could have possibly made it.
LAST DANCE brought me here. 👋👏
We lived about a mile from the UNC campus, and a group of friends and neighbors decided to walk there after winning the game. It was a VERY wild celebration in downtown Chapel Hill that night.
"The play is apparently for Worthy. They double him for sure. You change the side, and Michel take the shot."
"Knock it in Michael"
executed.
I had forgotten that insane time out.
Mj was a freshmen in that game,he played with worthy,San perkins,Kenny smith,worthy was the number one player for tar heels and passed him almost immediately and worthy said this,Den smith was a genius,he is the reason they made a shot clock because Tar Heels would get the lead and pass it around with the four corner dean made,best college basketball organization all time,so many legends and hall of fame players came from unc
What I found pretty cool was even if Jordan missed that shot, when they stole
The ball back, if you look inside by the rim, Jordan was already down there waving his hand for the ball to score lol… his IQ and need for the ball when the game was on the line is absolutely insane 💪🏽💪🏽
Worthy didnt want him to score anymore, it wouldve sealed the deal
Yup Worthy was never going to pass to him. @@AndyonBlast
Whatever. It was Jordan who Sleepy undressed to score the go ahead bucket. Had Brown just shot instead of throwing it away to Worthy Jordan’s bucket would have been long forgotten and his defensive error would be legend.
@@rogerc23 Yes Jordan was the one who have Brown that massive wide open shot, but Brown didn’t take it and instead handed it to Worthy. Otherwise we would be talking about Jordan’s
Biggest defensive breakdown that lost NC the national championship
@@rogerc23 REALLY? thats your takeaway?
Your parents have my sympathy.
Birth of a Legend.
Wait, what, a RUclips video without a commercial before playing? Wow
Ewing just can't catch a break 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
At least he won a title with Georgetown in 1984. Certainly Jordan killed title hopes for him and many others in the NBA.
@@rushrush1209 like what LeBron doing
@@larryyuk3261 not at all
@@larryyuk3261 lebron isn't even close to jordan lol. Steph is a better comparison.
@@seancostello26 lol u funny LeBron greatest player.ever
Everyone talks about the shot but how about the pass on the next possession. That’s something you never get over 😅
That was the 1st game all tournament Hoyas didn't wear white. Brown forgot & in a panic threw it to a white jersey. Plus Worthy was SO out of position defensively he was mistaken for an offensive player
thank you, that explains a lot. makes it seem way less bizarre
40 years ago today...
I couldn't imagine that MJ and Worthy were teammates in colleges!
UNC Basketball Freshmen:
James Worthy 1979
Sam Perkins 1980
Michael Jordan 1981
Brad Daugherty 1982
Kenny Smith 1983
Dean Smith had some talent there!
Love the no shot clock
Of all the classic shots of MJ's career, that shot with :17 left is his most iconic. Posters of that shot is still sold here in NC.
Worthy was sensational in this game, he carried UNC on his back and just wasn't going to be denied.
Wow! Micheal Jordan was on fire! He surely will make the NBA.
1982 Championship game: Georgetown with Freshman Patrick Ewing, Noth Carolina with Sam Perkins, James Worthy, and Michael Jordan.
1983 Championship game: Houston had Clyde Drexler and Hakeem Olajuwon. Lost to NC State with head coach Jimmy Valvano.
1984 championship game. Georgetown is back with Ewing and they defeat Houston with Olajuwon. (Final Four: Houston beat Virgina led by Ralph Sampson and Georgetown beat Kentucky led by Sam Bowie - the guy drafted before Jordan)
1985 championship game. Georgetown and Ewing return and are upset by Villanova 66 - 64. Villanova made 22 of 28 shots for the game and 9 of 10 shots in the 2nd half.
3 Big East teams in the 1985 Final Four, Villanova, Georgetown, and St. John's (led by Chris Mullin)
What a great stretch of college basketball.
Great free throw shooting down the stretch.
I wonder whatever happened to that Jordan guy; he seemed to have some potential.
Jordan and worthy on the same college team is almost unfair
there was no 3pt line?????
Big Game James!
All time classic
The movie brought me here gave me chills I wonder did people know how great he would become
Odd they never mention this was in the Superdome and UNC rarely loses a title game in this building, if ever.
they did mention it
3:10 Roy Williams on the right.
Good looking out...Now he's retiring😢
Pause AIR and came straight here
I wonder what ever happened to that Jordan fella...
Michael Jordan to Fred Brown: "Hey, I'm gonna be a superstar anyway, but thanks for the blunder"
James Worthy (Junior) And Sam Perkins (Sophmore) were the leading scorers for that N C team.
One of the best basketball names ever “Sleepy“ Floyd IMO
No hesitation jump shot.
i’m here because of Sonny Vacario
Who else is here after the movie Air?
I am
I'm here because I watched Chris Webber call the time out and they mentioned this game.
Never had there been so many future NBA stars and Hall of famers in one NCAA championship game.
No Shot Clock and 3 point line back then.
Celebrating 40 years! Go Heels!
Catch and shoot 3 before the line was invented😭
I don't know that would have been a 3, it was definitely close!!
It’s funny watching Ewing with those knee pads in every college game
The GOAT was born..
Greatness.
