Sue Bird's famous Big East Tournament buzzer-beater needs a deep rewind | 2001 UConn vs. Notre Dame

[@inttruders]

Sue Bird is a legend. Her resume is about as impressive as it gets. Five-time Olympic gold medalist Four-time WNBA Champion Two-time NCAA Champion Won a national high-school championship at Christ the King High School, a Euroleague title, and Russian Superleague title Four-time FIBA World Championship gold medalist College Player of the Year 2-time All American Eleven-time WNBA All-Star WNBA All-Decade Team All-time WNBA assist leader Edited: She won another WNBA title. Edited Again: She won another gold medal

[@cf1305]

5x Eurolegue champ, 5x Russian National League title, 2x Euro SuperCup winner. 3x winner of the Nancy Lieberman award (best point guard in the nation while she was at UConn) and she is going for more!!

He I has said many times that this 2001 team was his most talented team ever. Even over the undefeated teams he’s had

[@darkchocolate3390]

I know a lot of people are probably going to be like "Woman's basketball, who cares" but this was a really good video. I did not know that Sue Bird played of for UCONN or hit a shot of this magnitude but damn this video is really something.

[@thezachman1]

Same, I had no idea this even happened. But I'm glad I learned about it.

[@JonEffinZoidberg]

I've enjoyed this video series and to be honest with all the NBA stars talking about the WNBA I've started paying more attention to women's sports. I still don't personally find it as exciting as the NBA but I have to admit I definitely failed to give women's athletics the fair chance it deserved!

[@kylemma33]

@@JonEffinZoidberg I just don't find watching most womens sports interesting. The level of athleticism between top-level male athletes and top-level female athletes is a huge gap. I find watching women's sports at the highest level similar to watching male high school sports.

Those ACL tears. I cringe every time

[@philipdawson7800]

Poor Shea Ralph alone, according to her Wiki, has had 5 ACL surgeries!! Yes, FIVE!! And as a wrestling fan, I thought someone like Stephanie Newell had awful luck with ACL injuries (she's had 3 torn ACLs in 3 years), but this is taking the piss honestly!!

[@leespiders2337]

Female athletes are 5 times more likely to tear an ACL than male athletes. It's a gruesome right of passage

[@JDubs1464]

[@SweetSirenia]

I had avoided watching the replay of Shea's scream all these years, but saw it in this video and immediately choked up. It was so awful. She was down, wailing, for a long time before they got her off the court. Gampel's never been quieter.

[@JGarrison51285]

[@SweetSirenia]

Sadly, it's a reality of the women's game. They're something like 5x more common in women than men, and basketball's pretty much the worst sport for them. Poor Shea Ralph had the worst ACL issues of any player, and it wound up keeping her from playing pro even though she was a phenomenal player.

[@JonahLoeb]

One of the best basketball games ever played, and I watched every second of it.

[@jacobesnard]

Sue Bird and Diana Taurasi on the same team? Holy crap!

[@joyboy4270]

So Swin Cash, DT, and Sue Bird ALL went to UConn??? 3 of the most dominant WNBA players ever from the same school, at the same time! That's impressive.

[@SweetSirenia]

The 2001-2002 team was hands down THE best team ever to play in the women's college game. Went 39-0, had four top ten draft picks (Bird, Cash, Asjha Jones, Tamika Williams), had the greatest women's player ever (Taurasi), two other drafted players (Jessica Moore and Ashley Battle), etc. And all but one of team members is still in the sports world as of 2022.

[@Bedcot_]

I think the 2005 Capital One Bowl could warrant a Rewinder. The panic of the final play along with that being Holloway's only touchdown catch of his career would make for a fantastic ending. The weird scoreline, LSU's QB situation and how both teams ended up there would be some interesting storylines to get in as well.

[@TheOnlyMJS]

I'm a huge Seattle Storm fan loved Sue Bird, Swin Cash & Lauren Jackson. Didn't know Cash, Bird & suprisingly Taurasi were on the same UConn squad at one time. Kinda sad because I know all the schools NBA players went too and their teammates. WNBA should get more of like an NBATV type station too.

Thanks for doing this video! I've only followed the WNBA for a couple of years and had no idea about Bird or Taurasi's college careers.

Sue Bird is an AMAZING basketball player! I became a fan of the Seattle Storm, when they drafted Lauren Jackson, but it was during the next season when I came to love this team, as much as loved the Supes'. She and Lauren Jackson were such a great duo on the court... Winning the Finals in a short amount of time, then doing it again in 2010 (it helped having Cash money come over from the Shock, in 2008...), and this last season she broke a few more records, like total career games played. Sue Bird, you f***ing KICK ARSE!!!

Excellent video! I was familiar with Sue Bird’s name, but I didn’t know anything about her until I saw a KZbin replay of her recent Jimmy Fallon appearance. That led me to look for more info on this Sue Bird magic moment, which I might have ignored had it not been for my recent interest in women’s college basketball. Yes, Caitlin Clark’s phenomenal year was part of my increased interest, but my interest went from almost zero (except when the Lady Longhorns were in the mix, as they are this year) to very interested in UConn women’s basketball when Paige Bueckers joined UConn. I discovered Paige’s phenomenal talent when she was a sophomore in high school. I was so wowed by Paige’s gifts that I probably watched most, if not all, of her high school games the first year a video highlighting Paige’s talents popped up on my KZbin feed. My interest in the WNBA is still almost zero, but when Caitlin Clark and Paige Bueckers join the WNBA, along with so many college players that I’ve become familiar with this year because of Caitlin Clark’s and Iowa Hawkeye’s exciting style of basketball, plus watching the exciting talents of Longhorns like Madison Booker, Shaylee Gonzales and Rori Harmon, to name a few, I may actually start watching the WNBA. And for those Caitlin Clark naysayers, make sure you get the facts before you throw any shade her way and have to backtrack (like Ms. Swoops). Anyway, I am glad your video provided so much background info before this Sue Bird last second shot so that I could appreciate it that much more.
