Luv you and yeah Ronnie luvs you in memory of Huey Newton and Jerry Rubin killed by kooleros

Absolutely. I was at the game. The first half was hard battle as NC State led by 9 at half, 49-40. Then in immediate second half, NC State went on a 15-4 run to grab the 64-44 lead which hurts my heart. Debbie called for a timeout. Whatever happened in that timeout, it jolted the team and they rallied to tie the game at 79 at end of intermission - then again at 98, then again at 108 and at last, Virginia's Tony Cardoza stole the ball to win the game at 123-120 in 3OT. I think that game showed that Staley is brilliant player, Reiss is flashy, Cordoza is fighter but who helped this team? Dena Evans - she was intelligent PG who poured everything into Reiss, Cordoza and Staley to win this 55-minute game.

Absolutely not from Baltimore

If DT hadn’t got to it, Burleson just might have. Walton found himself in an NC State Sandwich on that play.

NC STATE SHIT 1989-2024 RIP

Always liked watching Hurricanes games when they played in Greensboro. It was a definite change from when the Monarchs played there.

This is women’s basketball.

This is fantastic. What a nice humble family. I might have missed it, but how tall were his mother and father?

Hey, I remember this game 😊

Phenomenal person. Amazing talent and genuine and humble.

One of the best blockers and players ever! If he had stayed healthy, off drugs etc, he easily would've had several NBA titles and definitely better than Kobe during his time period.

David Thompson was the greatest all around basketball player in college basketball history.

No baller has ever had the hops and height of his jumps. Once when he busted his head coming down because his feet hit the shoulders of his center Tom Burleson, about 7'4". Another time he leaped over the PF on his team enroute to a dunk. The block against Walton. And this is just in COLLEGE!!! A phenomenal player.

That travel call was unbelievable. NC State may have been in the Final Four that year if they didn't get screwed. They were capable of beating Puke in the next round (don't think they beat Seton Hall, though).

I STILL say it was a foul!

Habs were up 2-1 in the series and 3-0 in this game. The rally broke them

Probably one of the most heartbreaking calls Ive seen with a bad call. The Pack was gaining momentum and Fire would of hit the 3. NCSU would have pulled out the Victory.

Both of the 'Hill' players were the embodiment of class... the kind of student athletes that Duke once-upon-a-time recruited. Those were the best days to be a Blue Devil fan. Sadly missed

Carolina that year ran into a team that wanted it more than they did better finishers better goal scorers

NC State has been cursed ever since.

Guy was a Jerk

Great game. My Junior year in high school. LOVED Thompson (we Thompsons gotta stick together 😀); had followed him since his Freshman year at NC State, even though he wasn't yet on the varsity. But was a diehard Bruin fan back then, and a bit disappointed at the outcome. Walton later admitted decades later that the Bruins took the 'Pack lightly before this game, because they'd already beaten them by 18 , in December earlier that season at the "neutral site" game in St. Louis. Wooden warned them about taking NC State for granted, but,...,well, we know how it turned out. Thompson and the 'Pack were destined to win the '74 title, considering Thompson survived that vicious fall (worst I've ever seen on a court) against Pittsburgh the week prior. And, I waited a year later to see the Bruins give Wooden his last title. Thompson is my 3rd all-time favorite college player. Walton is #2, and Kareem is my #1. This '74 National semifinal is one of the best basketball games ever played.

The pack got screwd... never have forgot that game! Worst call ever in the history of March madness

1974 NCAA Basketball 🏀 Semifinals. NC State dominates UCLA. Great 😃👍 Memories.

My dad is fire

It wasn't just the women who wore big shoulder pads in the 80s.

No way this dude was 6’4 he looked like hes 6’3.

I was only one when this happened. 🥺

I. LOST. MY. MIND. over this call

I was at that game as a kid and Walton's eye were in disbelief

That’s my Dad, Dan Williams!!!!!! So excited to finally find some videos of his news reporter days.

To see Nique windmill that thing around 86-87, was like the most elegant personal disrespect to the rim...very personal

Jimmy V, one of the great personalities in NCAA basketball history. 1983 NC State was without a doubt the best championship run in NCAA basketball history.

I was surprised these two didn't make it in the NBA. They were fun to watch in college...having both of your guards scoring is awesome...Monroe 27, Corchiani 23

Nique was the best dunker on this one

It wasn't just how high he got, it was how quickly he got up there. DT was the most explosive players I've seen...

The sister was flat out gorgeous....

One dislike from Hakeem.

Watching this 37 years later.

Love that early rap music😂😂

Also there was a hustling flopper named Stoddard...( I forgot 1st name) who ended up playing for Baltimore Orioles as pitcher,played on the World Series team that blew 3-1 game lead to Pirates in '79. Both times N.C. State won titles in '74,& '83 they were not favored to win championship goin into the semis.

Les Robinson could only have succeeded with Jimmy Valvano's former players.

anyone watching in 2020? GO DUKE🔵😈

Get that stuff out of here.

Smoothest jumpshot in history. Should be in a textbook.

The only guys I remember to dunk from the foul line in a game was David "Skywalker" Thompson and Clude "The Glide" Drexler. Air time was normal for them.

He is my gym coach
