I remember being 12 years old, on the sofa with my dad, watching this live. When Sean hit that shot, we jumped up and started screaming. Oh the memories. I love my Spurs. I love this organization for keeping a bond between me and my dad so strong. Go Spurs Go!
It's amazing to think of the Spurs from this time, and then look at the respect and love the Spurs get now. Spurs have earned their spot to be talked about alongside the Celtics and Lakers and Bulls
Yeah that kidney illness made this play that much sweeter because I don't know if he had gotten the transplant from his brother Noel at this point but I know that the sickness was talked about during the playoffs on NBA on NBC with Hannah Storm and Ahmad Rashad during game highlights that season. Anyway, his coping with that illness during this playoff run and nailing that shot was kind of ironic given that this came in 1999, two years after Michael Jordan weathered a stomach virus against the Utah Jazz in Game 5 on the road with his 38 points to go up 3-2 and set themselves up to close them out in Game 6 at home. I think players fighting illnesses during game action get a lot of heroic press in the media despite how dangerous it can be pending the situation since the player's health can still be at risk even as they choose to play to be there for their team and the fans.
I love it. I was at this game, getting ready to leave,watched this shot from the stoop at the top of the stairs. The hang time was unbelievable, it looked like slow motion. The crowd was deafening, playing in a cavernous arena called the Alamodome, that was intended for football .I quickly ran down to my seat again to watch the game's end. Championship # 5 coming to my Spurs shortly, sorry LeBron (not)
I knew this stadium looked familiar. Even though I wasn't even alive to see the Spurs play in the Alamodome; I remember playing NCAA college football and playing in the Alamo Bowl
Was there and I concur. The dome was an absolute mad house that night. Pandemonium the whole game, and pandemonium still after all the way till people reached their cars. Best sporting event I've ever been to.
This happened 2 days after my 10th birthday. I had been diagnosed with an aggressive form of childhood cancer on 2/18/1999. After feeling sick all day, I remember vomiting during halftime with Portland up 14. But after Sean Elliott's miracle shot, I immediately began feeling better and never looked back. Here I am on memorial day 14 years later cancer free and 4 nba titles happier. Go Spurs Go - 2013 champs.
A masterpiece this beautiful deserves to be remembered, these were the days when as a young spurs fan, having lived thru the David Robinson years and getting close but still not breaking thru, this shot broke the barrier and got us the Chip, and we have never looked back ..."Thanks Sean thanks a whole Bunch".
Sean Elliott overcame the enormity of the moment, several challenging basketball factors on the play (body position, the opposing defense, etc.) and major health issues to give the Spurs a big lift on the franchise's first championship climb. A heroic effort from an inspirational player, to say the least. Thank you Sean for all of your contributions to the organization, and for helping to get the "golden" ball rolling.
San Antonio has so much class, we've never let things get out of control. We just enjoy and appreciate our awesome team everytime. Poor Sean and he was already ill. God bless him.
0:54 frkin love that explosion from the crowd. NBC used to raise the volume inside arena's so the people watching on tv could hear the roar of the crowd. R.I.P. NBA On NBC (1990-2002).
I was at this game, 8 rows up from the basket where Sean Elliot hit this amazing shot! All I could say was WOW! An awesome experience like no other. I love my Spurs!!!! Possibly, the most underrated player in NBA History-Sean Elliot!!!!
Met Sean at a restaurant in SA right after his surgery--which was right after this. I asked him how many times he'd been asked about that shot. He laughed and said everybody mentioned it, and he was used to it. He was incredibly nice, great guy, was really sweet to my (then) 12 year old son. Sean never has to buy a drink in San Antonio, as long as he lives. We'll pick up your tab forever for this one shot, my man.
I was in the dome that day, it was the most incredible sound i have ever heard in my life. It was like the entire city was being exorcised. We were a playoff punchline in those times, we never could finish the deal and when we were down 18, it felt like one more collapse. Until Sean bailed us out and began our dynasty. GO SPURS GO
Wow! can't believe its been 10yrs ago since that game, i remember watching this game in my front living room, i was 13yrs old! Its imo the best game i ever watched, a memorable classic!
I'm not even a Spurs fan,but this is one of the greatest moments in NBA history. What a shot by Elliot. One of those moments that I can say I'll never forget where I was when I saw Elliot hit this shot.
Wow, can't believe this was over 10 years ago. I remember watching this whole entire game in my family room. I was 14 at the time. Those were tha days.
Hearing those 50,000 fans chant Go Spurs Go and then go out of their minds touches my spurs loving soul and nearly brings tears to my eyes. I mean seriously that amount of people going insane all at once for our guys was the hands down most amazing Spurs moment I've witnessed in person. God I miss that Dome!
My favorite sports moment ever, a shot that could have gone wrong in so many ways went all right. I think the Trailblazers were so shocked that they could not recover. There will never be another team like our 1999 Spurs.
I'm from SA, and I was living in Portland during this series. I watched this game at a sports bar in Portland, and I caught a LOT of sh!t after this shot, but this shot was the clincher for the Spurs championship!!!!! HELL YEAHHH!!!!!
I think we still have a two year window with the addition of young players around the big three. Even if the legacy is over........ Can you deny that it was a great one? We Spurs fans enjoyed it to the fullest.
I remember seeing a still photo of this shot and in the photo, it looked for sure that Rasheed was going to block it. What a great shot by a clutch player!
Man o man I will never forget this game! Not only did all of San Antonio blow up in an uproar but all of Texas watching it did I knew people out of state going crazy over this win, 1999 spurs was a true dynasty. But this is 2011 so let's hear it for our boys now!!! Another dynasty!!!
I will NEVER forget this... My parents still to this day haven't replaced the tile that broke from me landing on it because I jumped so high. Go Spurs Go!!
It almost brings tears to my eyes seeing the celebration that ensued as that shot sailed through the net. This is the loudest I've ever heard a crowd. Pure pandemonium. Many younger Spurs fans had never been so close to a championship (Spurs had a 3-1 lead evaporate in '79 and dominated in the WCF by Houston in the mid '90s). That was just a massive crowd - I've tried to find the official attendance - but was probably over 35,000.
Sean Elliot said about 2 1/2 months ago, the ball was meant for Duncan. But when he caught it, just like any other shooter, he wanted to take it. He said,"thats all shooters do. If they are confident in shooting that night, theres no stopping them." Sean said he had the perfect grip and the second it left hands, he knew it was good. Sean is the man!! That shot still lives in Spurs memory. GO SPURS GO!!!!
I love my Spurs. The 1999 Spurs are my favorite team of all time, but we have our greats now, and are going to take the title in Miami tonight. GO SPURS GO!
I'll never forget that game, i was there with my dad at the Dome, and that was the loudest place i have ever been at when Sean made that 3, i thought Sheed was gonna send the ball into the 5th row when he jumped up
I remember where I was at when this happened. I was in my brothers room using his VCR to switch in between the game and a porno. I would switch it over to the game when I thought I heard my mom coming down the hall. Turns out I switched it over at the right moment and I happened to catch this great shot. Man, the summer of 99, what a great time...
You're correct, they typically do. As a matter of fact, the Spurs' current home - the AT&T Center - holds just under 19,000 fans. But from 1993-2002, the Spurs played home games in San Antonio's 65,000 seat NFL-grade stadium, the Alamodome. The court was placed in one of the end zones, lower level seating was constructed to be court level, and the rest of the stadium was curtained off from view (behind the TV cameras). The Spurs' playoff run in 1999 drew crowds in excess of 35,000.
5 Blazers fans must of saw this video. Elliot was just a great player, took that one dribble to avoid the travel and to gather himself. The NINJA boiiiiii!
Thats because the NBA game was much better back then. Also, 1999 for being a lockout yr produced one of the best Playoffs ever. Alan Houston gamewinner in Miami, LJs 4-pt play, this shot for ELliot, Avery Johnson clinching the NBA Title for the SPurs. Great playoffs.
That is the New York Knicks of '99 you are thinking of sir. This Spurs team was just years in the making, destiny calling. And the Tim Duncan era/dynasty was born!
It is only fitting to look for this clip on Memorial day. I was at that game, ready to leave and beat the crowd home. We paused on the stoop on the top of the stairs, watched that shot with what seemed to be iincredably long hang time, drop in and the roar of the crowd was deafning! The story goes that in the huddle before that shot Sean Elliot told Mario Ellie to look for him because he had "one more shot left in the gun". So he did and the rest is history. Go, Spurs, Go!
I played basketball in highschool in Tucson, Sean Elliott went to Cholla High school, the court is named after him and signed. We blew them out of their gym every game we played there.
I love my SPURS! Great ambassadors for the city San Antonio, nothing but a class-act and these guys never have embarrassed San Antonio or the Game! -GoSpurs Go!-
I was working at the MadHatter in Windsor Park Mall when I was listening to this game. I Was surprised when the Tre' fell. Then again if you recall Sean was knocking them down all 4th quarter so it was going to to happen. Not a Spurs fan, but the game was memorable.
Old School here. 1999-2007 4 Spurs World Titles in that span. This Spurs team is so different in every way (Except for Duncan and Poppovich) from todays Spurs.
Sure do miss the Memorial Day afternoon games in the conference finals. They still play on Memorial Day now but its always just another night game and it isn't the same as it was.
I will say this , the blazers have never ever recovered from the memorial day miracle we promptly were blown out in the next 2 games and apart from a year later when we blazer fans know what happened this franchise has never recovered and is only now starting to get back on track
On the DVD we find out that wasn't where the ball was supposed to go. Out of the time out Sean goes to Mario Ellie and said "I've got 1 more in the chamber" so Ellie threw it to him instead of what they drew up. After he hits it he tells Ellie "I told you" and you can see that on the tape. Gives me chills. My favorite ending to any game ever.
Me , My buddy and My sister were fortunate enough to be among those 35,000 - it was great - I gotta admit - my sister was the only one among us who kept believing after they fell down 17
this shots better it got us to the first championship look at his heels the are above the side line then inchs away from getting blocked that is the best spurs game best shot EVER!!!!!!!!! i ran down my street every one was going crazy go spurs go
I'll never forget this shot, it was the start of what would be a dynasty for San Antonio. I was in college in Conn at the time and it was the only summer I didn't come home cuz I had a internship. The city was buzzing the Spurs were winning and I wanted to be home and a part of it all so bad. I was with a bunch of idiots I didn't know stuck at UHART for the summer. The Spurs were getting blown out the while game, I was gonna stop watching at halftime cuz I was so pissed. One of the idiots there
I remember being 12 years old, on the sofa with my dad, watching this live. When Sean hit that shot, we jumped up and started screaming.
Oh the memories. I love my Spurs. I love this organization for keeping a bond between me and my dad so strong.
Go Spurs Go!
Ian Wagner I hate my dad
duustin crawford killed him with a hammer?
@@duustincrawford2945 You hate yourself, Looney Toon.
It's amazing to think of the Spurs from this time, and then look at the respect and love the Spurs get now. Spurs have earned their spot to be talked about alongside the Celtics and Lakers and Bulls
I remember this, great game. I was really happy for Sean especially after all his kidney issues.
Yeah that kidney illness made this play that much sweeter because I don't know if he had gotten the transplant from his brother Noel at this point but I know that the sickness was talked about during the playoffs on NBA on NBC with Hannah Storm and Ahmad Rashad during game highlights that season. Anyway, his coping with that illness during this playoff run and nailing that shot was kind of ironic given that this came in 1999, two years after Michael Jordan weathered a stomach virus against the Utah Jazz in Game 5 on the road with his 38 points to go up 3-2 and set themselves up to close them out in Game 6 at home. I think players fighting illnesses during game action get a lot of heroic press in the media despite how dangerous it can be pending the situation since the player's health can still be at risk even as they choose to play to be there for their team and the fans.
Jonathan Akerele No, he never revealed to anyone that he needed a transplant until after the Finals
I love it. I was at this game, getting ready to leave,watched this shot from the stoop at the top of the stairs. The hang time was unbelievable, it looked like slow motion. The crowd was deafening, playing in a cavernous arena called the Alamodome, that was intended for football .I quickly ran down to my seat again to watch the game's end. Championship # 5 coming to my Spurs shortly, sorry LeBron (not)
I knew this stadium looked familiar. Even though I wasn't even alive to see the Spurs play in the Alamodome; I remember playing NCAA college football and playing in the Alamo Bowl
I still remember watching this on tv. The house went just as crazy as the Alamodome.
Loudest I ever herd a SA crowd
Mr. Aquarius Yep, real NBA Fan's back then
😀😁😂🤣
Was there and I concur. The dome was an absolute mad house that night. Pandemonium the whole game, and pandemonium still after all the way till people reached their cars. Best sporting event I've ever been to.
My husband and I were there it was awesome!!!!
The call by Costas at 0:52 still gives me chills. What a glorious moment for all us Spurs fans! GO SPURS GO!!!!!
Sean Elliot was my favorite player of all time
This happened 2 days after my 10th birthday. I had been diagnosed with an aggressive form of childhood cancer on 2/18/1999.

Wow...it was over a decade ago, and I still get chills listening to that call by Costas.
Sean Elliott overcame the enormity of the moment, several challenging basketball factors on the play (body position, the opposing defense, etc.) and major health issues to give the Spurs a big lift on the franchise's first championship climb.

I still get goose bumps watching this!!!! GO SEAN GO!!!!
Sean Elliott kept his heels up to make sure he wouldn't be out of bounds... watch his feet, he made that entire play on his toes!!
Be crazy if Tony Parker was in France watching this game on TV going, "I'm gonna play for that team some day!" =)
No matter how many times I've watched this, I still get goosebumps...
I was at this game, 8 rows up from the basket where Sean Elliot hit this amazing shot! All I could say was WOW! An awesome experience like no other. I love my Spurs!!!!
Possibly, the most underrated player in NBA History-Sean Elliot!!!!
never forget that day.Time to get that 6th ring.Go Spurs!
Met Sean at a restaurant in SA right after his surgery--which was right after this. I asked him how many times he'd been asked about that shot. He laughed and said everybody mentioned it, and he was used to it. He was incredibly nice, great guy, was really sweet to my (then) 12 year old son.
Sean never has to buy a drink in San Antonio, as long as he lives. We'll pick up your tab forever for this one shot, my man.
the first apartment I rented..like 7 other units went crazy ! GO Spurs!
I loved Sean Elliot. It's so weird to see Brian Grant and Damon Stoudemire again haha. Brian was shaking his head like wtf yo. What a classic shot.
I remember this like it was yesterday. that crowd was so loud
I was in the dome that day, it was the most incredible sound i have ever heard in my life. It was like the entire city was being exorcised. We were a playoff punchline in those times, we never could finish the deal and when we were down 18, it felt like one more collapse. Until Sean bailed us out and began our dynasty. GO SPURS GO

Wow, can't believe this was over 10 years ago. I remember watching this whole entire game in my family room. I was 14 at the time. Those were tha days.
I was only 2 years old, i get chills every time i see it.
FLAT OUT CLASSIC FOR THE AGES! One of the best playoff games ever!
Hearing those 50,000 fans chant Go Spurs Go and then go out of their minds touches my spurs loving soul and nearly brings tears to my eyes. I mean seriously that amount of people going insane all at once for our guys was the hands down most amazing Spurs moment I've witnessed in person. God I miss that Dome!
I would give anything to see another soldout Spurs game in the Alamodome again. What an amazing venue!
My favorite sports moment ever, a shot that could have gone wrong in so many ways went all right. I think the Trailblazers were so shocked that they could not recover. There will never be another team like our 1999 Spurs.

Still get goosebumps! Go Spurs!!!
I think we still have a two year window with the addition of young players around the big three. Even if the legacy is over........ Can you deny that it was a great one?
We Spurs fans enjoyed it to the fullest.
We love our Spurs now, but the 1999 Spurs were an awesome team, and this was the shot that made us know they would take the championship. GO SPURS GO!
The Memorial Day Miracle!
Even all these years later, that call by Costas still gives me chills.
GO SPURS GO!!!!!
I remember seeing a still photo of this shot and in the photo, it looked for sure that Rasheed was going to block it. What a great shot by a clutch player!
Man o man I will never forget this game! Not only did all of San Antonio blow up in an uproar but all of Texas watching it did I knew people out of state going crazy over this win, 1999 spurs was a true dynasty.
But this is 2011 so let's hear it for our boys now!!! Another dynasty!!!
What a memory...the call by Bob Costas still gives me chills!
I will NEVER forget this... My parents still to this day haven't replaced the tile that broke from me landing on it because I jumped so high. Go Spurs Go!!
It almost brings tears to my eyes seeing the celebration that ensued as that shot sailed through the net. This is the loudest I've ever heard a crowd. Pure pandemonium.

I still get the same chills and excitement as I did the day that I watched it ..Go SPURS Go!!!
Die Hard Spurs Fan!!! One of the greatest moments in NBA history!

Another absolutely crushing playoff moment for Blazers fans.
I jumped so high in the air when he hit that shot it felt like my head was going to hit the ceiling. What a moment in Spurs history.
I remember where I was at when this happened. I was in my brothers room using his VCR to switch in between the game and a porno. I would switch it over to the game when I thought I heard my mom coming down the hall. Turns out I switched it over at the right moment and I happened to catch this great shot. Man, the summer of 99, what a great time...
One of my favorite shots in playoff history
The Trailblazers felt the energy that Spurs fans send the team,. and they knew they didn't have a chance. 6th ring this year!
You're correct, they typically do. As a matter of fact, the Spurs' current home - the AT&T Center - holds just under 19,000 fans. But from 1993-2002, the Spurs played home games in San Antonio's 65,000 seat NFL-grade stadium, the Alamodome.

5 Blazers fans must of saw this video. Elliot was just a great player, took that one dribble to avoid the travel and to gather himself. The NINJA boiiiiii!
It's one of my first too. I was ten years old! o.o But man, even then, I felt the magic of that shot. That first championship was the absolute best!
And people say these were the most boring of the Spurs' championship teams......yeah, right!
Thanks for posting this awesome memory. Go Spurs Go!
Thats because the NBA game was much better back then. Also, 1999 for being a lockout yr produced one of the best Playoffs ever. Alan Houston gamewinner in Miami, LJs 4-pt play, this shot for ELliot, Avery Johnson clinching the NBA Title for the SPurs. Great playoffs.
ninja! one of my favorite players back in the days..
the NBA at its best
RIP NBA on NBC
That is the New York Knicks of '99 you are thinking of sir. This Spurs team was just years in the making, destiny calling. And the Tim Duncan era/dynasty was born!
Great memories. Thanks for posting this!
It is only fitting to look for this clip on Memorial day. I was at that game, ready to leave and beat the crowd home.

Is it fair to say on that one shot Sean Elliot got AT&T Center built?
This was in the Alamodome
Watching DROB running into the locker room.Life Made GoSpursGo
This was one of the few games that San Antonio wasn't the most boring team in the league. Great game. I remember it like it was yesterday
As a Blazer fan, that was a shocking shot & the most painful. :(
Props to Sean Elliot though. It's the most amazing shot I ever saw.
I played basketball in highschool in Tucson, Sean Elliott went to Cholla High school, the court is named after him and signed. We blew them out of their gym every game we played there.
When my wife turns me down for sex, I turn to this video! Next best thing!!!! One more ring for Timmy and the SPURS!!!!
p.s. I'm pathetic!
Sweet!!
You don’t sound pathetic at all man Lol!
I love it when a crowd explodes with joy.
I love my SPURS! Great ambassadors for the city San Antonio, nothing but a class-act and these guys never have embarrassed San Antonio or the Game!
-GoSpurs Go!-
I was working at the MadHatter in Windsor Park Mall when I was listening to this game. I Was surprised when the Tre' fell. Then again if you recall Sean was knocking them down all 4th quarter so it was going to to happen. Not a Spurs fan, but the game was memorable.
Was there for this, one of my favorite memories ever, the best.
Old School here. 1999-2007 4 Spurs World Titles in that span. This Spurs team is so different in every way (Except for Duncan and Poppovich) from todays Spurs.
How many times have the Spurs been in these types of games since then!?? The Spurs were born that day and have not looked back since.
Sure do miss the Memorial Day afternoon games in the conference finals. They still play on Memorial Day now but its always just another night game and it isn't the same as it was.
That shot sucked the wind right out of the Trailblazers. All of San Antonio knew the Spurs were going all the way that year; it was electric.
This still gets to me!
I will say this , the blazers have never ever recovered from the memorial day miracle we promptly were blown out in the next 2 games and apart from a year later when we blazer fans know what happened this franchise has never recovered and is only now starting to get back on track
Holy crap this is the first time I've ever heard or seen this idk why but that gave me chills the crowd was so loud holy crap that's amazing
Thank you for the info and for posting. Cheers.
As a life long Spurs fan, that would be amazing! They shouldve made it happen since this is a very historic run. Who doesnt want to go back to '99?
On the DVD we find out that wasn't where the ball was supposed to go. Out of the time out Sean goes to Mario Ellie and said "I've got 1 more in the chamber" so Ellie threw it to him instead of what they drew up. After he hits it he tells Ellie "I told you" and you can see that on the tape. Gives me chills. My favorite ending to any game ever.
Mad props to Shawn, Rasheed was right there lol I remember this game like it was yesterday!! Love these old games, tha Alamodome days!!
Whenever I'm feeling a little down, I watch this clip and remember screaming "NO NO-YES!!!!"
Greatest shot in Spurs history
Wow~what amazing shot!
The best moment ever!
Me , My buddy and My sister were fortunate enough to be among those 35,000 - it was great - I gotta admit - my sister was the only one among us who kept believing after they fell down 17
Jay Howard's radio call on this on WOAI was one of the most epic things I've ever heard.
the sound of the crowd here is overwhelming, imagine how loud it was loud
One of my fave SHOTS EVER.
You're forgetting the 1.7 million people in San Antonio watching on TV. One of the most insane moments in the Alamo City!
damn... i saw this game live 12 years ago but i couldnt recall the crowd going ballistic.. just wow..
this shots better it got us to the first championship
look at his heels the are above the side line then inchs away from getting blocked that is the best spurs game best shot EVER!!!!!!!!! i ran down my street every one was going crazy go spurs go
Proud to be a Spurs fan.
The most amazing part is that his kidney was deteriorating during the playoffs. You can tell during the interview he's in pain.
I'll never forget this shot, it was the start of what would be a dynasty for San Antonio. I was in college in Conn at the time and it was the only summer I didn't come home cuz I had a internship. The city was buzzing the Spurs were winning and I wanted to be home and a part of it all so bad. I was with a bunch of idiots I didn't know stuck at UHART for the summer. The Spurs were getting blown out the while game, I was gonna stop watching at halftime cuz I was so pissed. One of the idiots there
