Great shot!

Awesome! (=

mmm spontaneous man love!

*fake

yep fake, setup totally, every dumbfounded reaction of every player and person in the audience was scripted, the balls location the fall from here to exactly there, this was probably $100,000 to setup and pull off

no way that was faked imo.

Well it's suspicious that the camera person reacted perfectly to him throwing the ball across the court, so I think it's fake

It would have to be the best CGI compositing & acting i've ever seen.
watching the guys hand as he throws the ball, and the trajectory of the ball, the physics looked 100% realistic to me, then there are the reactions of the 2 other players at 0:14 that seemed to be at exactly the same time
then there are the crowd reactions, with those that saw it going nuts, and those that didn't were watching the players do the man-love thing and wonder what everyone was so excited about.
As far as the camera being in the right place at the right time with a good zoom feature, i'd say its just luck.

It's definitely real. I remember when it happened. It made the news. I'm trying to look for an article online.

ok, it's real...why fake something like this? I've seen shots like this before on video back in the 80's and such. Why fake one today?

But beside all that, what's with the crowd? I remember going to basketball games in Highschool where it's standing room only. This one looks like maybe 30 people or so showed up.

This has been on sportcenter SO many times, they've even talked to the guy who took the shot. This is not fake. Ridiculous to even say so. Has video sift hit that point where we get the youtube rejects clamoring over every post about how fake it is, or how "hawt" the chicks are? Use your head, its pretty easy to figure out whats real and fake for most clips.

*Real

Kid should be playing Division I with that range.

yeah, i'm in the real camp, simply from the memory of having made shots like this several times....not with a clock ticking, mind you!

yeah skforty says, truth is stranger than fixshun ya'll dumass!.....course its real!

God almighty its only a video, and a good one at that. 1 in a million chance camera work

Fake.
It's stop-motion - can't you see the finger prints on the plasticine?
I'd hazard a guess at Aardmann Studios.

Oh . . .DD may be right.

In the pile of man, you can distinctly hear the team virally chanting "Flushed Away, Flushed Away."

....yeah, I'm back to fake......no wait,...lemme watch again again.

come on, this thing is as real as Tyra's Tits

it's not like it's impossible for things like that to happen.

what smells of fake for me is the fact that he did it at the last second, and that strangely they were just 1 point down.

i'm still not sure anyway.

I think it's *dead
