    Buzzer definitely went off after he shot the last one.

    Nice hefty lawsuit incoming.

  2. Just give the dude the car. They make that much money off popcorn in one game

  3. wolfishnickelsyr

    Cheap af. Multibillion dollar franchise screwing a fan out a few thousand dollar car.

  4. Phillip228

    I heard the buzzer way after he released the shot, unless the buzzer and the shot clock were not in sync.

  5. ChannelNeo

    the ball clearly leaves his hand before the buzzer. Come on.

  6. Vegetable_Comment_82

    Fans should PEACEFULLY storm the court and sit there until they give him the car.

  7. BocchiLover

    Just stop doing this kinds of games if you’ll just screw people.

  8. MAMBAMENTALITY8-24

    Dont do the events if you dont intend to pay out. Scummy

  9. If that doesn’t count then I guess every buzzer beater in the nba was late too

  10. “Father Pat, the shot came after the buzzer.”

    “No, Jackie. He made the shot.”

    “WHO THE HELL HAS A FREE CAR?!!!”

    “Relax. The car company will give him one.”

    “They’re not really a sponsor. It just sounded professional.”

    I know they reviewed and gave it to him but besides how obviously after he releases the ball the buzzer sounds, I’m pretty sure the announcer counting down even says “good if it goes” on the shot.

    In case you all don’t know the people who compete in these games are typically season ticket holders who are scheduled well in advance. It doesn’t take away from any of what happened. Just thought it’s useful to realize that.

    Foot was on the line Father Pat. Father Pat, he stepped on the line

  14. shortyman920

    Surely they won’t take the bad PR over just a car. Give him the damn car and put this to bed lol

    After this season they can barely afford to pay their players… fire Danny ainge

  16. BUTTFUCKER__3000

    They probably found out he wasn’t a member of the church, then decided to give him a used Larry H Miller lemon

  17. GooseMay0

    Just give him a big giant check and tell him to go cash it at a bank.

  18. YouDirtyDogg

    Didn’t know Jackie Moon was still an owner of a basketball team.

  19. whathapp3ned

    I was watching it live this angle doesn’t show the clock, it makes it seem like he made the shot but the clock was past and he shot like a whole second after it ended. Honestly really glad they gave him the car though it was really hype.

  20. dont_shoot_jr

    I see from comments that they gave him the car eventually but it would be cool if MJ became the patron saint of bullying teams into giving fans their winnings

  21. Ouchyhurthurt

    NBA refs always gotta make it bout themselves….

  22. NoBook9868

    The funny thing is how many times we see this situation play out exactly the same way…they maybe technically didn’t do it in time.   

      Everyone is like wtf ….then they back down to pressure from fans realizing how bad it makes em look. In the spirit of this it’s super close let’s give it to the fan who made the crazy shot for big bucks 

  23. redditnathaniel

    Great job, Jazz fans! Bully this promotion into paying out!

  24. imminentjogger5

    the bad publicity from that alone will cost them way more than a free car

  25. International-Fig905

    Wrestlemania week. 

    Jazz had to get heat on the babyface 

  26. DaLakeShoreStrangler

    Sounds like the milk drinking Mormons are pulling a Jackie Moon on this dude.

  27. PeelADomenBail

    Utah Mormons like nah he looks like a thug

  28. fredo_corleone_218

    He released the ball before the buzzer. Seems like a case of making stuff up to not have to payout – cheap bastards.
