These are the Greatest Game Winners that didn't count. At first, we got the time Demar DeRozan called game from half-court, but right when he shot it.
They ended up losing the game too. I know coach was punching the air after that, and so was Colin Sexton, cuz right when he scored his game-winning bucket, his coach did the same thing.

**SPEAKER_2** (0:36)
Three, two, Sexton. No, no, no, no, no basket.

**SPEAKER_3** (0:39)
They called a timeout. Why would he call a timeout?

**SPEAKER_2** (0:42)
With one second left.

**SPEAKER_1** (0:44)
But Joel Embiid will never let this next play go, cuz after Jason Tatum put the Celtics up three, Joel did this.

**SPEAKER_2** (0:50)
No timeouts left for Philadelphia.
Oh, oh, no, they say no good. Came back to the buzzer.

**SPEAKER_1** (1:00)
That's the long finger curse. But Paul George came down with the same curse, cuz after getting the rebound with less than a second, Paul George copied Embiid.

**SPEAKER_4** (1:07)
George, and we have overtime as George hit that heave, but it was late.

**SPEAKER_1** (1:16)
They should have counted it anyway, but De'Aaron Fox wishes his shot counted, cuz after hitting the go-head bucket with eight seconds left, De'Aaron Fox just thought he won the game for his team, but then Miles Bridges went clutch mode. So with 1.4 seconds left, the Kings had one last chance, so they gave the ball to De'Aaron, and he pulled up just a bit later.

**SPEAKER_2** (1:44)
Didn't get it off, didn't get it off. They say it's good, but I don't think he got it off. Yes, it's over. The Hornets are gonna win.

**SPEAKER_1** (1:53)
But luckily for De'Aaron, he had a game winner that did count, because during the game against the Jazz, he blew by his defender and put his team up by two. But with 0.4 seconds left and the Jazz needing a three to win, they found Laurie Markkinen, with just enough time to get a shot on. That was still an insane shot, but Marco Bellinelli is just crazy, because he tried to win the game in the most insane way possible. See, while Marco was inbounding the ball, he had only half a second to hit an open teammate for a three-pointer, but nobody was open and all he saw was his defender's back. So he tried the impossible.

**SPEAKER_5** (2:33)
This is trying to hang on against the Hornets. Bellinelli banks it in, but the buzzer had sounded.

**SPEAKER_6** (2:41)
He threw that off a pistol.

**SPEAKER_1** (2:43)
He needed way more time to pull that one off, but hey, at least that was just a regular season game, because Steven Adams' timing lost his team a playoff game. See, in the 2016 playoffs, the Thunder were taking on the Mavericks in a back and forth game, and with just seven seconds left, the Mavericks' Raymond Felton was hoping to put his team up by three. But after missing two straight free throws, Kevin Durant grabbed the rebound and hoped to win the game.

**SPEAKER_7** (3:15)
They will take a look, but it looked like Adams got rid of it in times. They wave it off, and the Dallas Mavericks have won the game.

**SPEAKER_1** (3:27)
Luckily, the Thunder ended up winning the series, but the Charlotte Hornets were lucky they won too, because Baron Davis got completely robbed by the officials. See, in the 2002 playoffs, the Hornets were taking on the Magic in Orlando, and with just 0.7 seconds left in a tie game, the Hornets had just enough time to get a shot off, so they gave it to Baron Davis, and he hit it.

**SPEAKER_5** (3:45)
At the buzzer.

**SPEAKER_2** (3:47)
Oh, yes, no, it's waved off.

**SPEAKER_7** (3:50)
Bernie Friar says no, it will not count.

**SPEAKER_6** (3:54)
He was waving immediately.

**SPEAKER_2** (3:56)
It was so close.

**SPEAKER_5** (3:58)
Bernie Friar says no.

**SPEAKER_1** (4:00)
He clearly got the shot off in time. That ref must have had money on a game or something, but nothing was more money than Kevin Durant's game winner because on the Warriors opening night, they were down by one point. And after Steph Curry missed the jumper, Kevin had a chance to show he was the chosen one.

**SPEAKER_2** (4:14)
Play by Cole, gets to the ref, he fires, yes, boy!

**SPEAKER_6** (4:19)
It appeared that he got it off on time for the opening night win.

**SPEAKER_7** (4:25)
Looks like he got it off, let's look at it again.

**SPEAKER_2** (4:28)
Oh, wait a minute.

**SPEAKER_9** (4:29)
Oh, no, no more.

**SPEAKER_2** (4:31)
I think we're gonna have to call some people back out on this floor. Double zero, his hand is touching the ball.
