Any time an NBA team comes back from 20 points down to win on a buzzer-beater, it will understandably have everyone go absolutely wild. The Denver Nuggets’ local broadcasters were no exception to this rule after Jamal Murray hit an iconic game-winning shot to beat the Los Angeles Lakers in Game 2 on Monday night.
In a new video courtesy of Altitude Sports, the camera is fixated on Nuggets’ play-by-play Chris Marlowe and color analyst Scott Hastings as they watch Murray make his move on (a later frustrated) Anthony Davis. When the ball finally swishes through the hoop, an elated Marlowe and Hastings practically have an out-of-body experience trying to describe the chaotic scene.
Judging by the sheer pandemonium at Denver’s home arena, they weren’t the only ones:

Man, that is special. It is these kinds of legendary moments that make sports worth watching. It is these kinds of legendary moments where even the announcers are utterly flabbergasted at what they just witnessed.
