Ray Allen vs. Allen Iverson in the closing seconds of the 1996 Big East Final needs a deep rewind

- Ray Allen's collegiate battle with Allen Iverson is best remembered for the ending, but before we get there, we've got to remember the trajectory of the UConn-Georgetown rivalry up to that point, the different careers of those two stars, and the way their teammates covered their bad performances in this famous match-up. To really appreciate the big final moments, you've gotta rewind!

I’ve said it once, I’ll say it again: Reggie Miller’s eight points in nine seconds deserves a deep rewind
Facts bro
I see no lies
Dude ain’t wrong...
My pops was an avid fan of Larry Legend, I loved MJ.
Feel like that says something about how intriguing a player/personality Reggie has always been, that this is the one I wanna see.
Also, if you’ve already done anything on Bird, I need to find it...I don’t know if it’s possible to properly convey his talent level?
I’ve been waiting for a LONG time for that
Fax
An event I’ve never heard of but know the people involved, wow, I’m in luck.
Same
This one is in fact so great and overlooked that I was praying, while it was loading, for it being covered by Seth (or Will or the others), unlike many other NBA videos of SB being wasted and being unwatchable.
You love to see it
Ya prolly weren't born yet right?
@@jordanalexander5275 No, I was born in 2002, I grew up in the UK, as well, so my knowledge of sports from America is this channel and the games I saw on vacations until I could buy my own cable.
A first ever "double moment" in history.
Feels like something we'll be talking about for centuries! Great vid!
This deserves a rewind
Nah the Manchester City rewinder had a simultaneous moment in history of Man United finding out they lost the title race
@@legodude3000But that happened after this
Last time i was this early, this was still sb nation
kinda scared this new territory
Oh yeahh i forgot that name
SB Nation was a better name... I have no idea what they were thinking
@@datguitarplayer1656 i kinda think SB did stand for Secret Base, we just never knew it until they revealed it? 😅
@@PatricksCollectibles if it did than they never should have revealed it. 'Cause it's suuuuuuuuper dumb.
Man, Ewing still looked 43 even in college
Yup😅😅😅
So did Ray Allen
Ewing for real looked older than John Thompson in those shots.
@@flyforce16 Ray doesn't look 43 now
Leave Shotta Ewing alone... 😂
The two Allen's have enter the legendary '96 Draft.
Ray Allen on the Milwaukee bucks is such a underrated time in basketball
He made that team watchable an legitimately compete in one of the strongest eras of the NBA
They were a modern team back then
They were one game away from getting into the '01 Finals
@@hovsugiri ... And Iverson got his revenge
@@hovsugiri exactly 💯 such a underrated team the league was stacked at that point
It’s hard to imagine even now just how good that big 3 in Boston was, and it was only possible because ray decided he would go there
Damn Kerry Kittles, that’s a name I haven’t heard in yearssss
Haha for real
My ears and mind perked up at "Sleepy Floyd!"
But that Villanova jersey he was wearing was so cool. Can they bring that back?
Socks
That point in time you realize that this was *25 YEARS AGO!!!*
TIME FLIES
I hear ya. I was fourteen. And 1996 was one of the best years of my life.
I was 13
*I feel y'all I was 8*
When you realize we wont ever see legendary battles in college like this ever again because everyone goes to the same 4 teams.
& they leave college after 1 season now even though they Can't play. One and Done
@@mongoslade277 if LeBron’s kid doesn’t stay 2+ years ill be furious. 1) because he 100% needs the extra development and 2) because college basketball needs a big name to market again.
@@zacwoods Idk. Looks like LeBron is gonna hang around to try to play with his kid. They might drop the one year out of high school restriction just for him
there still are
Jesus shuttlesworth VS Bubba Chucks
Only OG fans know about that 🙌
Not a fan just sounds cool
@@samuelsharick3257 lol true at least u honest I can respect that 💯🙌🏽
Facts
He Got Game vs “Practice???”
The 1996 college season was a great year in hoops. Childhood memories🏀🐐
Man, that Ray Allen shot is nuts. I feel like there's a little bit of luck with how it bounces in, but just pulling that off, with that form, that's some serious skill.
Yo dawg, I heard you like Rewinder, so I put a Rewinder in your Rewinder.
@Ethaniel Lim my guy reviving the classics

These two also met again in the 2001 ECF
And ray would have won again if david stern didn’t conspire to get the sixers into the finals
@@inwhichidie7171 makes you wonder though, had Toronto won the 2nd round, who would the league conspire against: a small market team or Canada
@@JayJ95X probably Bucks still, Vince Carter was probably the most popular player in the league in ‘01 only behind guys like AI, Shaq, Kobe and Tim. They’d defo try and get Vince in the finals
@@walter5227 Vince was THE MOST popular player in the league at that time. Dude was leading all star vote-getter in an era with amazing names and far better players. People underestimate what Vince could've been and where he could've ranked (at least offensively)had he not gotten hurt. Injuries robbed him of 4 to 5 thousand career points.
@@deanbenford7363 Juist because of his dunks.
The soon to be 1st and 5th picks in one of the best drafts in NBA history. The 1996 draft had 10 all-stars, 4 hall of famers, and 3 MVP’s with the top 20 players selected.
Was Nash top 20 I forgot
@@bobobingus3155 Nash was 15th
Seth's narration makes these Deep Rewind and Beef History videos really amazing.
I think what makes this moment even more iconic is Ray Allen and Allen Iverson going on to all-time great HOF NBA careers. Ray Allen is also responsible for one of the clutchest 3-point shots in NBA history, which if there hasn't been one made yet, completely and utterly deserves a deep rewind.
Having moments that ACTUALLY happened during the vhs player/recording era just hit different. Thanks for being the best sports channel out there!
Victor Page was such a savage. Really love that he got a shoutout dude could hoop and had a nice step up season after AI left
No cap and Sleepy Floyd is still one of the greatest names ever!
And two of them became top 10 SGs to this date.
AND Kobe got drafted with both of them the summer right after.
I absolutely love Big East basketball. If only Syracuse still played there
Agreed.
Seth, you are the greatest. Please Narrate every video. Love you bud.
Yes
Not even trying to hate...if Seth isn’t narrating the video, I’ll sometimes click off.
All the other narrators just don't have the voice or the personality to do the material justice. I love the content but I find myself clicking away when someone else is talking.
@@Aus10Gr8 same. Especially with Clara.
I unironically want a Nathan Peterman vs Chargers rewinder that was legitimately a moment in history
One of the worse QB performances ever. I remember watching the Quad box on Sunday Ticket and the man was just throwing INTs left n right.
As a Bills fan, so do I, actually. My brother and I weren't able to actually watch the game and kept up with it via the play tracker on the NFL site. Really glad we didn't get watch in hindsight, but I really want to see how it was possible for one man to be that bad.
That would be under the worst😂😂😂😂😂
I was at that game. No one needs to experience it again. Especially not Peterman.
My kids were talking to me about this today, LoL.
When she heard this video from the next room, my grandma thought Seth was one of my uni professors.
you get course credit for watching any episode of Rewinder
Lol she's on point lol bless
Felt like a year ago I was 10 watching this game, college basketball in the 90s was so good
Diego Maradona's 'Hand of God' needs a deep rewind
If that wasn't incentive enough, you've got the ongoing Falklands war, the footballing rivalry between the 2 nations, both Maradona's and Peter Shilton's history AND the 'goal of the century' in the same game, also scored by Maradona
Ponete la 10 sb!
@@noahsimon7658 Dont forget the rigged 1966 quarterfinals
@@mauro77jjj About as rigged as the 1986 ones
@@noahsimon7658 "They love me in Scotland" lmao Diego knew how to press the buttons.
This episode’s setup is a rewinder in itself. It’s the Big East tournament between basketball powerhouses UConn and Georgetown.
Laettner’s shot against Kentucky deserves a rewind
It has been covered at length in docs including Laettner's amazing 30 For 30 episode. That being said, a Rewind ep would still be dope.
Laettner shouldn't even been in the game he had already boot stomped one of kentuckys players refs did nothing
Leattner should have been ejected already. F him
@BxxDxx Hoodoo Most overhyped moment in sports. Letting somebody catch a pass from baseline to free throw line. And then two players just stand there and let somebody shoot a turn around shot from 15 feet is not spectacular for offense but the most apathetic display of defensive effort.
Butthurt haters in the comments. It was 30 years ago, move on!
Seeing "God Shammgod" in print at 11:11 makes me happy.
If Russell Wilson ends up leaving Seattle, maybe we should start talking about a collapse
If he actually leaves you can pretty Guarantee that a legion of boom "collapse" will be here by next year
I don’t think that’d be appropriate until they’re legit cellar dwellers, not only if Russ leaves.
@@Ofallthings089 the hawks offense carried by Wilson
They can already make one for the city of Houston
As a hawks fan no
Just stopping in to say how exceptional this channel is.
Those two are legends but the standout in that game was Georgetown's Victor Paige.
I’ve haven’t seen someone stretch that much time since the NFL damn good job 👍
Haha facts
Diego Maradona’s hand of god deserves a deep rewind
It's something that couldn't be done today, but it was pretty incredible how quick a new conference in the Big East grew with some private schools (but in big cities) so quickly. Georgetown, St. John's, Providence, Seton Hall, Syracuse and Villanova all made the Final Four in the '80s when the conference only had 9 teams in the '80s.
I was litterally reading Ray Allens autobiography and read that exact part in the book 2 hours before this video came out. No joke.
No coincidences, player!
I want to read it but I'm sure it's full of his lies about the Celtics
@@arizonaFIREent well I haven't gotten to that part yet in the book. Can't really tell how much he speaks about the Celtics.
Aaahhh!! Back when the Big East was more interesting and occasionally was better than the ACC, SEC or even the Big Ten
Outstanding job of delivering this story!
you need this: How the Oilers turned into rubble after trading Wayne Gretzky
How? They won a cup after he left and lost in the conference finals twice. You mean after they traded half their team to Toronto and messier left for the rangers, but it wasn’t the Gretzky trade that sent them into the cellar.
They won a Stanley Cup right after trading him...
If so than, how the offseason blunders from the Oilers led to years of losing
This was a classic game that I will never forget. I miss the old school big East tournaments and games
I remembered reading about this in ray's book, best wing shooter of all-time
This was such an amazing Rewinder ... Thank you
Dude. Ray Allen is my favorite player all time. Great video. Loved watching this. Instant subscribe!!
Great video! So many memories as this was directly from the the heyday of my college basketball fandom. Loved the Big East from afar (Texas) as a young lad. Motivated me to get an internship in my university's Sports Information office, join the school newspaper as a sport writer then sports editor which lead to launching a 10 year career in sports writing (2 seasons covering the Houston Rockets) and an almost-27-year career in media (ended by the pandemic in 2020). College basketball will always be my favorite sport and I just hope we get to enjoy March Madness this year (2021).
Best part about this hearing them old school names again. Wow, I remember them all.
Big East was full of dogs forever. Wish they could bring it back someday it’d help a lot of schools like Georgetown St. John’s and Rutgers.
Remember as a 6th grader watching this game on TV live. Damn im old!!
Lu Dort's final three during the 2020 game 7 playoffs @ Rockets (@ the bubble) has all the makings of a Rewinder.
The old Big East was just awesome man
Once again I gotta show some appreciation to Seth, every video he writes and narrates on this channel is the absolute best. Makes my day
Being my favorite player of all time in Ray Allen, gotta love the ample amount of Jesus content you guys put out. Keep it coming! Also SETHHHHH the only guy who should be narrating Secret Base videos!
I liked this videos because I didn’t know what the ending was and I was surprised and liked this one a lot
Good content. I really like the synthesized musical score!
This and the USWNT rewind have been my favourite, slightly more obscure moments that aren't given away in the first minute or two. I had no idea what would happen, and honestly being disappointed by a miss at the end is a really nice feeling, it's like when a series kills off a main character. It ups the suspense in all further videos. Great job
Bro, much respect for a great content 💛
I love watching Rewinder videos where I dont know what happens at the end.
First time watching your channel. Excellent commentary.
Love the way you narrate!💕
I’d love to see a Rewinder for the Xavier/Cincinnati fight in 2011. Like a college version of the Malice at the Palace.
The structure of the narration was brilliant, like a thriller movie, very well done! The stylistics of the presentation far outweighed what would otherwise be viewed as questionable, less than ideal, low resolution footage. The quality of the telling was so excellent that I felt I was there, great stuff!
Kemba Walker and Uconn clutchness deserves a deep rewind
AND uploaded on a day when UConn and Georgetown play each other, great timing SB
As always every videos amazing, learn so much about players I love growing up and the story being told to me so well that I don't know the outcome
You guys should do a deep rewind of Gerry McNamara’s flawless 2006 Big East tournament run for Syracuse! He had the single greatest individual performance in tournament history, helping the orange beat 3 top 25 teams in the process (as an unranked team, including #1 UCONN) There was so much drama on and off the court throughout including being called “overrated” by the school newspaper! Gives me chills just thinking about it! There’s also all 4 full games on CZcams in decent quality for the time, so getting clips would be a breeze! Okay I’m done lol
Wasnt Eric Devendorf on that team as well?
@@CyberchaoX 6 OT was a ture moment in sports history no doubt
That was sick. I love you Seth
This was pretty dope. Well done. 👍🏿
“Scott Burrell...Ho”
Who said it
🤣
Jordan
I enjoy your commentary the most
Ooh the rare double moment in history. Scrumptious
Great breakdown of one of my favorite moments in hoop history
Listening to this makes me happy, and seth voice makes me happy
Nice.
Great Video..... enjoyed it alot
Grate video bruh Frfr💯💯🔥🏀🔥
best nba videoformat on youtube! so much love and detail!
Hell yeah, love me some Seth talkin' B-BALL for SB. Y'all are the best!
You need to take a look at Liverpool - Arsenal at Anfield 1989, that's a great rewind... Keep up the good work
Awesome. Anyone who's from the Atlantic coast and was in high school or college during the 80's knows that this video is awesome.
💎💎💎💎💎
I love the way you told the story it was awesome...
LET'S GOOOOOOOO
I hear Seth Rosenthal, I watch.... Simple as that.
Best CZcams sportumemtary channel... And it's not even close
Loved this episode!! Loved the buildup and playing coy with that "DPOY" name dropping for first name Allen, not surname Allen! Would love to see any Loyola Chicago GWs, or Laettner's GW vs Kentucky, or even the CARDIAC KEMBA moment for UCONN in 2011 :D
i love these videos
I remember watching this game live. My brother and I went ballistic at the end of this game. We witnessed great hall of fame basketball.
Definitely top 5 Big East Tournament game of all time I loved this team I think we had four Pros on this squad.
There's a 30 for 30 that covers it in more details than a CZcams video could
It’s just so interesting to casually hear the names of future NBA legends in passing in other legend’s stories.
yeah it was cool seeing young othella harrington
I remember watching this live I watch as many of allen iverson game as I could I was so upset g town lost
2005 Champions league final (aka the miracle of Istanbul) please.
Amazing storytelling as always
Much Gratitude
The shot block at the end of the 2017 UNC GONZAGA March madness championship deserves a rewind I think. The history of UNC going to the natty back to back is pretty cool.
Both were picks for the He Got Game movie that Ray ended up headlining.
Yep. Didn't spike asked Kobe but he said no..then ray got the call. Still a good movie
I remember watching that game in HS,or at least remember ray allens shot at the end. Dope vid
This was so dope!!!
I'm a simple man. When Seth makes a basketball video I like the video. I can listen to Seth talk basketball all day.
This is masterful storytelling.
You Always do an amazing job Seth and everyone else at secret base, I would love to send you a script on the collapse of the Montreal Canadiens
When Iverson was DPOY lol that always sounds funny to me
I honestly had to rewind it because I thought I misheard
They really overrated steals back then. He was elite at shutting down his own teammates on offense I will give him that.
@@mentok3027 lmao
He did lead the NBA in steals in 2001. Very good at getting the ball back, but never a quality lockdown defender
Good stuff. Miss the old days of college basketball.
The pain 😢😢😂..of Being a hoyas fan in the 90's and 2000's....great teams... Just never could put the Defense and scoring together in the tournaments💪🏾🙏🏾great video #DMV
