Gordon Hayward’s half-court attempt for the National Championship deserves a deep rewind

- Duke is leading Butler by two in the closing seconds of the National Championship. The Bulldogs have no timeouts but they still have one final chance at upsetting Coach K’s Blue Devils. With the ball in Gordon Hayward's hands, there was just enough time to get off a prayer that would quickly overshadow what led us to this point. March Madness turns the unknown into household names and the latest on that list - Hayward, Brad Stevens, Matt Howard - were looking to take it a step further and win it all.
But they weren't the only ones feeling the pressure. Kyle Singler, Jon Scheyer, and Nolan Smith had yet to live up to Coach K's standard while at Duke. They've had incredibly productive careers, and yet this was the first year making it past the Sweet Sixteen. As soon as each team won in the Final Four, we knew there was a chance of something special, but never imagined an ending like this.

Even though I watched this game live and I already knew the result, I thought that it might just go in this time
I was just about to comment this lol
I’m surprised they didn’t show the edited fan video going around twitter, where the shot does go in; and it suddenly cuts to their bench celebrating from earlier in the tournament.
The common thread is you watching. Had you skipped this video it WOULD have gone in this time. I hope you're proud of yourself.
Same here. I was at work, but we weren't doing much work for the last few minutes of the game. I remember getting out of my chair and walking to one side as he took the shot, almost like I was trying to will a long putt to go in the hole, only to have it lip out. Sigh...
Same
Bro i was getting hyped up 10 minutes for the epic buzzer beater and then it misses lol
F952000 you didn’t remember?
Probably too young
same
This is gonna be awesome. I'm gonna watch this 10 mins of backstory. Here it comes! Omg! Puts it up.. Brick! Haha!
"It almost went in!" Nah not really, it banked hard off the backboard and come flying off the rim... smh.
SPOILER ALERT!!
Growing up with no knowledge of us sport history makes these rewinders so much fun.
michael hall coming back after watching to live just makes it special af :)
Yes! It's interesting to learn about the past and compare teams nowadays. Makes you appreciate the team's history better
tbone and players history. I never knew 2 NBA stars, who seem to not like each other, played on the same international team. Hayward and Clay Thompson.
@I Don't Care oh I thought it was weird that they made it that far in the first place because they weren't a big college and it was hard to get far in that tournament if you weren't a really big school. Also, wow, never thought I'd meet the dude who got to decide what is and isn't us sports history. This is quite an honour. I would've expected you to be doing something more important, like working out how to retrospectively view Lance Armstrong given no one in America has ever liked bicycles.
I’m jealous
Having zero knowledge of the result....this was not what i expected :D
Really..!! It was a great game.. u should find it on CZcams and watch it.
"Unintentional" elbow from Draymond Green...riiiight
was thinking the same thing
😂😂😂
I’m surprised Draymond didn’t karate kick him.
I literally said the same thing to myself 😂
I’m just gonna guess draymond green scares everyone. I thought somebody would’ve tried to knock him out by now 🤷🏽♂️
Draymond Green been throwing elbows since college
since middle school probably
6'7 playing the 5 at a major College & 3 time NBA 🏆 he better do whatever it takes.
@@caseywalker1714 he plays at the 4. The only good season he had in college was his last. He's only a 3 time champion because of Curry and Durant. He shouldn't throw elbows, all it does is make him and his team look dirty and unable to play defense correctly.
Probably elbowed his mom in the womb
@@lightroast2850 you know golden state won before KD right
Villanova's 3 point buzzer beater needs a rewind.
Jesus Aguilar I agree
No it doesn't
It happened a couple years ago. Why would it need one.
@@xmikejohnson914x because even though it only happened three years ago it's still pretty obviously one of the greatest endings to a championship ever, regardless of sport or level. They've done Rewinders for events that are less than 5 years old before, literally no reason to stop now.
Michael-Lee King they’ve done rewinds of things that happened a couple years ago
This half court is probably the most saddest miss in history
ehh
Such a nonsense comment lmao
Idk I just missed a open three with Jason terry to lose three dollars to my friend on 2k
Silent Spaze wow 3 whole dollars you must be rich
@Quincy Marchelya If hayward made that it would have been so much better than UCF beating DUke
Draymon Green throwing "accidental" elbows. I'm shocked
I think he would have said, "Well, he ran into my elbow. It is his fault!"
That screen to get Hayward open broke MY spine just watching it lol
Was sooo illegal lol
I went to high school with the guy who set the pick. Matt Howard
I went to school with him too. Saw him the other day actually. Watching all this makes me wish I could go back to the last year of high school. Relive some of the good ol' days.
@@flyguyry1 How? He was completely set. The defender was not looking and his teammates did not call it out (given the situation you can't really blame them). The viciousness of the screen has nothing to do with legality.
Seeing this makes me extra happy Hayward is doing performing well recently.
He might literally save the Celtics from Kyrie & Tatum/Morris/Brown’s beef.
Doctor Cthulhu this is true
Hasn't he been really bad this season?
but... hes been playing like dirt this season
@@bobbob-iv4we that's why he say recently
Next Rewinder: Joe Carter's walk off home run in game 6 of the 1993 World Series.
As a Duke fan I really miss these teams. They had character and you grew closer as a fan with 4 year guys. It's what made 2010 so special. One and done ruined college basketball.
Scheyer now as their coach makes this even better. He was a force in this game.
Remember this game too well. First year watching college basketball seriously and was rooting for Butler throughout the tournament
I remember being there. I was in 6th grade and I was so high the players looked like ants but that ball was clear as day in the air. I am a huge duke fan and that was the biggest relief in my life. I’ll never forget it
Honestly this is a great one but do Game 6 of the 2011 World Series
Absolutely do this one. Maybe I'm biased because I'm from St. Louis, but that game and everything leading up to it is the stuff of a Hollywood movie
Ugh I know it’s a good story but as a rangers fan I really don’t need to see it agian
Yes. That was such a great series
There better be 3 rewinds in one for game 6
Louis Greubel I agree and I’m a Cubs fan
I'm a current Butler student and this shot still brings back pain.
David Freese's HR in Game 6 of the 2011 World Series
This is one of the most heartbreaking finishes in the history of the NCAA
I remember ESPN doing a segment on this...perfectly executed play, so close onto landing it too.
9:35 That Coach really trying to sell that he didn't beat the shot clock lol
You should do Liverpool vs Milan In CL final.
Sorry I don’t speak soccer, all I heard was pound euro, pound
The one where Liverpool comes back from 3-0 down, yes plz
One of the greatest comebacks, incredible
Yeah that was huge
Good one.
United beating bayern in barcelona was a big one too.
Do Michael Phelps 7th gold in the 2008 olympics where he won the 100m fly by one hundredth of a second. Truly one of the most insane moments in all of sports.
My depression ends whenever SB Nation posts a video
Can you rewind Mario Chalmer's shot in 2008? Beating steph's Davidson squad and the drama surrounding Bill Self and an early John Calipari for Memphis? Sounds like a fun rewind to me...
Came here to suggest the exact same thing!
aario chalmers not only beat steph but also rose in route to a college title...2 future nba mvps….this is why sports can be amazing...hes known as a semi joke but chalmers won a lot and beat better players by not submitting to them like most..he was that kansas teams best player believe it or not..
Asmosis Jones while he was his team’s best player, he wouldn’t have carried Davidson to the tournament much less the elite 8. Give his teammates credit
"Chalmers for the tie" is one of the greatest moments in Men's D1 College Basketball History. GREAT suggestion.
As a ku fan I agree
Magic Johnson's baby hook pls...It was a pretty important shot
His entire rookie season should be a rewinder. I couldn’t imagine a guy coming in now, and being the Most important player on a championship team; and LITERALLY saving the league from bankruptcy; tripling NBA viewership and making the finals be broadcast live for the first time ever; in a single year.
The NBA owes Magic a debt of gratitude that can never be repaid.
@@cjwrench07 Don't forget Bird on the topic of bankruptcy!
sozcan You know the only time the Celtics averaged the same amount of viewers as the Lakers ??? When they played the Lakers!
The Celtics averaged half of what the Lakers did normally on national broadcasts, so their games were moved to regional broadcasts. The Lakers were THE ticket to league success. That’s why mid-season the league’s contracted national broadcaster, paid extra to change the NBA Finals from tape-delayed broadcast, to live nationwide. *IF, The Lakers made it there* Bird’s Celtics weren’t even in the conversion.
Bird’s jersey sold heavily in the Boston area, and the majority white areas of the south.
Magic you ask? Well he sold equally well everywhere in the US, among almost every demographic.
The League, and even competing team owners, pushed “Showtime”, lead by Magic. In a mid-season game in New York, Magic playing in MSG that night was the lead basketball story. The Knicks were basically treated as the home team playing the Globetrotters. They were there, but they weren’t what everyone came to see.
You gotta watch the documentary on Magic, the one he wasn’t personally involved in. Where they just go by the facts and stats, and not Magic being modest about his role in the rebirth of the NBA.
@@cjwrench07 Ever since 2016, I won't buy most of these if you don't have sources. Will make note of the documentary though, if you could name it please?
sozcan
Magic Johnson: Always Showtime
Kareem: a minority of One.
One on One With Magic Johnson
Magic and Bird : A Courtship of Rivals
His Biography channel episode was really informative as well, but it’s hard to find.
The upcoming. 5 Part. Documentary series about the Showtime Lakers(and how they impacted the NBA) is also supposed to be a must watch for that era, and how they impacted the league.
The Last Documentary would be :
The Announcement.
that has more to do with his HIV diagnosis, and his early impact on the league is more peripheral, but they do come with some good stats on the 1979-80 NBA season.
Check on how League salaries had jumped up from 79-84. The economic-leaning stories are the ones that go into the base stats of how much of a cultural phenomenon ShowTime was at its height, and their monetary impact around the league. Like the great growth that always came with a Lakers Dynasty, which is unequalled by any other team.
I'm happy I watched the video before looking at the comments.
That screen was great. I graduated with Matt and managed the Connersville varsity team for five years that he played on in high school so I’m glad I got a front row seat to watching him play.
1999 Stanley Cup winner rewind would be awesome... so much controversy
Can’t relive that
Do a rewinder for Jose Bautista‘s bat flip
Ajjc 2003 that’s his ass!
I just realized they haven’t done the Malcolm Butler interception yet
Gavin Monk wait what
Seahawks should've ran the ball
how have they not done david freese or mario chalmers shot yet?....seriously..those are spine tingling moments and I wasn't even a fan of those teams but when you talk about sports changing moments those plays changed history...in huge ways...and their so unlikely...
They should run the video onto CZcams. But, it might get passed and intercepted by some hacker on the internet.
I think everyone knows about that moment though and what led up to it.
The 1992 Duke vs Kentucky game definitely deserves a moment in history... baffles me how it hasn't been made yet
Would've been the greatest shot in basketball history by far
Was about to comment something almost verbatim to this haha.
Man of all the rewinders I’ve watched this one hurts because I remember watching it and rooting for Butler. Not because it was my school but because it was the perception that they were the underdogs and well you root for the underdogs.
DO 1999 Champions League final, Manchester United 2:1 Bayern Munich
*Please do a rewinder on Magic Johnson’s first year* A lot of young fans don’t know how he LITERALLY saved the NBA from bankruptcy, basically by just being himself, on the court and off.
Do you remember Magic's first NBA game? Jabbar hit the winning shot and Magic celebrated like they just won the championship. That's the kind of spirit the game needed.
Big Nizzle No because I’m not 50 years old
@@colinrs4844 did someone ask you?
Ray Allen game winner in the Big East Championship game vs Georgetown and Allen Iverson
I was wearing a duke shirt that night.. and I still have it. It’s unwearable now.. but. What a fantastic game.. one of the greats.. that pick.!! Epic.. ! One of the greatest finals game ever.
Rewind Isaiah Thomas’s 50 point game on his late sisters birthday. Amazing performance and amazing heart shown that day and the Celtics still did him dirty.
This Butler team was a team of passionate players... They were a very small school and many players would've knew they'd never make it to the pros... After graduation they would just be like an average person, a real estate agent, accountant, school teacher etc.... They would never become millionaire or achieve any fame... This was their moment in life, and they played their heart out during this game and nearly achieved the impossible.
I’m sure the Draymond elbow was unintentional......
The music in these is just so haunting yet motivational.
that was such a draymond play lmfaoo
As a Duke fan, I inexplicably wanted that shot to go in
"inadvertent Draymond Green elbow"
😂😂😂 No such thing
Super super late with this comment, but this was the first basketball national title game I watched ever. I wanted Duke, my friend wanted Butler because his family has a history of going to Butler. What a game.
Can you please do Game 2 of 2011 NBA Finals. Mavs great Comeback vs Heat. Dirk left handed layup, DWade missed half court buzzer beater.
This whole tournament was 🔥🔥🔥
1:39
Puberty hit Hayward hard man.
He grew like 6" his senior year in HS
Watching this game live was wild. Top 5 best college basketball game I remember watching
You should do the Malcom butlers Super Bowl interception
too soon for that deep of a rewind
@@bayarea510 It's been four years already.
Seahawks should've ran the ball
I'm Warriors till I die & even I laughed when he said "unintentional elbow from Draymond Green."
chris kunitz game 7 2ot goal against the senators
david freese game 6 walkoff against the rangers
The Kunitz goal should actually be a "fast-forwarder," where we fast-forward past the big moment to see what happens next and oh boy is it bad for the Sens.
It breaks my heart more and more whenever I go back and watch that miss.
Bobby Orr's flying goal to win the Stanley Cup
He jumped 🙄
@@RC.41 He was tripped*
Bro you convinced me that it actually went in! and I watched the game live!
And then the next year Butler made it back to the final game and lost a defensive battle to Kemba Walker’s UConn Huskies!
That doesn’t really have a reminder moment in its game, though
That does have a worst episode on that one.
I’ll never forget this game. I was rooting for Gordon Hayward, really felt like he’d make that game winning shot when you were watching. Butler would not go away.
Y'all had me totally convinced it was going in. I can't even convey the disappoint i felt for that whole team. Can't imagine what it felt like to be there in person.
I met Gordan as a kid when he was training during the summer right after getting drafted to the jazz. He was super young but he had so much hype after his college career and I definitely knew about him even being a kid. He was very nice and even gave some advice on how to improve, and even giving advice to try other sports as they all will help “especially younger” Im still glad he has been able to have a long career, someone with this much heat coming into being drafted couldve not said anything or just given basic advice but this seemed very genuine especially looking back now.

THE SHOCKED PUNT
NEVER SPEAK OF THAT BS

... WOAH HE HAS TROUBLE WITH THE SNAP
Muhammad 03 that’s one of my first great memories of college you could hear the entire campus go crazy at once. So many burned couches afterwards lol.
I watched this game in person in the duke section, and it looked so much closer and slower in real life, like you could hear a pin drop while it was in the air for what seemed like minutes. Amazing experience #GTHC
Lebron's chase-down block on Iguodala deserves a rewind. It was the greatest singular play of his career.
Great rewinder as always. I can't be the only person who had no idea what happened in this game, and was disappointed when the buzzer bester clanged out.
Inesta's goal in injury time vs Chelsea is a MUST
Only if the Tom Henning Ovrebo storyline is fully explored as well. I mean the man himself has admitted to missing several penalties, which would have made the Iniesta goal irrelevant. Most Chelsea supporters will claim 6 missed penalties, a neutral article a few years back went through the claims and found 3 to be valid (and a further one debatable). If he calls only 1 of the 3 (a 33% correct call rate, which is still universally terrible) and it's buried, Iniesta doesn't matter.
Now I'll be the first to admit that Chelsea supporters had gone too far in the wake of the match with death threats and the like, which should never be acceptable, but Iniesta's goal only mattered because the whole situation leading up to it allowed it to matter. Barcelona were not the better team that night, or in that semifinal on the whole.
@@jasonglasser1621 Even as a barca fan I do agree with the missed penalties thing, all I'm asking for is a fun video that explains all the drama building up the moment.
This story is made all the crazier by the fact their coach, brad stevens, became coach just by winning a contest.
Do cardiac kemba from the big east tournament, then they went on to win the national championship
One of my favorite sports memories of all time!
9 years later I still think he should have passed it to #3 down the court... great vid btw
You have a point there with Zach Hahn having been known for his 3 point shooting...but I think if Hayward were to have passed that, it honestly would've been even more so of a desperation shot than the one from halfcourt just because of the time the pass would've taken off the clock
We need a “The Drive” rewinder
And "The Fumble" as a bonus
As a Jazz fan it hurt me to see you guys post this, since I knew he was gonna miss the shot at the end, but I ended up clicking on the video and damn it still gave me goosebumps. Great work!

God, I can't believe you got me to watch this shot again.

Do Kris Jenkins 2016 national Championship buzzer beater
Andres Illanes please no... 😭
Oh man, I don't know if my heart could handle seeing that one getting broken down. From the high of Marcus Paige hitting that game tying, circus shot of a 3 pointer, to the extreme low of watching that confetti go off a few minutes later. Would make for one hell of an episode though.
How about the 1985 championship over Georgetown
Finally! My pleas have been answered. Now we need more college basketball rewinders!
Please do Derrick Rose's ACL Injury, I feel it's part of Sports, and definitely Basketball history, cause it impacted not only his career, but the nba, if that doesn't pick your fancy, then Joe Carter's World Series Walk Off would be also nice
Gordon calling timeout instead of just throwing it off his foot on the inbound could of been a difference maker for all we know
that year duke beat NOBODY on the way to the finals had the easiest road
Adam K They had big breaks in addition to a massively favorable bracket. No Robbie Hummel for Purdue. Baylor with two of their best players out.
@@kylemurray3526 And Kentucky lost to a WVU team that only hit 3s in the first half.
Cory Parker Damn, I forgot about that. Now I remember thinking “Uh, this is bad. WVU got them three years ago but it ain’t gonna be this year.”

Do a Rewinder on LeBron's chase down block plz
Or "The Push"
I found the lebronsexual
@@wizskinz9987 I'm just a fan of the guy, can't I express the joy I had when he finally brought a title back home
Not trying to downplay the block (it's become one of the most iconic Finals moments in recent memory), but if there was a Rewinder of any 2016 Finals moments, it's gotta be Kyrie's shot, no?
@@MylotheZooLovingScientist It could be that too, because it was the game winning shot that won the title for us. So, yeah it could be, yes. But, I felt personally the block was the iconic moment and without it, it might have not even happened
Never seen or heard of this moment before and it genuinely crushed me that it missed
Do Lebrons block or Kyries dagger in game 7 of the 2016 finals
No. "I believe they should do the Warriors final possession of that game and consider the final buzzer and final score the moment in history". Those 2 plays were historical but doesn't really put the nail the coffin. On Cavs side they could speak about them after the decision and how they got Irving. LeBron returning. The impact he made on new coach and creating a core there. His legacy. Brief history on Cleveland sports.
On Golden State they could talk about Steph's MVP season. 73 win season following a Championship year. Steph's injury in the playoffs. The OKC series. Being up 3-1 in the Finals. Draymond's suspension.

Hayward made almost the exact same fadeaway shot that he barely missed in this game a few year after, in jazz uniform, to win a regular season game. I believe that it was even against Stevens' Celtics but it might just be my head making things more spicy.
After the game he said that he would have loved to trade missing that shot for making it with Butler in the championship game
