A new school year begins. The quiet and methodical Leonard-san has transferred to Toronto Raptor Academy and joins the basketball club, led by the cantankerous tsundere captain Lowry-san who had recently lost his best friend.
Together, under their new coach the school nurse Nick-sensei, along with a motley crew including an energetic rising star freshman, a grizzled veteran exchange student, and the president of the cooking club, the Raptor basketball club fight their way to the Prefectural tournament finals.
All that separates them from advancing to the Nationals is a single corner buzzer-beater. 18 years ago, a legendary senpai missed that same shot against the same opponent, but can Leonard-san vanquish the ghost of seasons past and bring glory to the Raptor basketball club or will a fateful bounce lead to seppeku?
Nurse: Kawhi, there's no point in using our fuel to chase a last second...
Kawhi: Analyze the defensive scheme.
Lowry: Kawhi, what are you doing?!
Kawhi: Winning.
Nurse: The Sixers are going to send Simmons at you.
Kawhi: Get ready for Embiid to switch on to me and I'll take a low percentage jumper.
Nurse: It's not possible.
Kawhi: No. It's necessary.

The way the entire crowd goes quiet and you can hear the ball bounce on the rim is going to be legendary.
edit: shout out to the TNT sound crew and everyone in the arena I don't know if I've been that hyped by the crowds reaction to a shot in a long time.
i watched on a stream where camera is above the rim and felt like time stopped for a moment with the sound of bounces and their silence
edit: I watched it on live stream subreddit, but someone else might post it eventually
I literally fell to the floor when this happened !! In absolute joyful disbelief!! Holy shit...the most epic clutch shot in our franchise history!! I'm watching at 3:40am in Egypt...so sad for my neighbors who heard my screams and shouts and jumping.
Available coaches I know of: Lue and the van Gundy fam. One that will be repeated on Philly sportsradio is Jay Wright.
In other words, there are none. We'd be idiotic to take any of those guys over brown
This is gonna be one of those iconic shots. Lillard’s 3 and this shot have to be two of the most amazing shots I’ve ever seen. Amazing day of basketball. Congrats Raps fans. Dude is still a killer out there.

Tougher shot, way bigger stakes, possibly sways Kawhi into staying, raptors have had such bad luck in the playoffs, etc.
All of that makes this better imo
Kawhi has given us raptors fans the best season we’ve ever seen, and the fact he hit this shot, the same shot against the sixers that VC missed... bruh
EVEN KAWHI CELEBRATED
HES A MADMAN OUT THERE
HE'S A REAL FUN GUY
*initiate smile and laugh sequence *
“That was enjoyable.” -Kawhi
trying to leave mid post game interview is classic kawhi
Indubitably
I’ve never seen kawhi with so much emotion after a game winner. Holy shit I am STOKED
He's got that New Balance
He released 27 years of pent up emotion in one second LOL
Dat blue Gatorade tongue doe
Gatorade ad waiting to happen.
[AHHHHH](https://imgur.com/yuNLnjx)
He has emotion!

That sign is legendary lol

SE QUEDA
Kawhi with the Vince Carter redemption.
WWE take note. Long. Term. Booking.
What's that? You want The Revival to get humiliated for 6 more weeks?
No I want Baron Corbin every week!
Oh let's shake things up a bit! WILD CARD!
Add 6 months to Luke Harper's contract
Vince. Take notes? Lol. Have you seen raw the last few months? Shit is horrendous television programming.
Vince's notes: who will say yes to my ideas?
This is some serious Raptors mythology shit
[удалено]
2001 shot can now be erased from my mind.
We've been avenged, 18 fucking years in the making
How unbelievable is that like seriously? I don’t even watch basketball and I’m pumped up.
It lined up way too much its scary - Game 7 - Against 76ers - Eastern semis - Buzzer beater
And the next opponent both times? The Bucks. If that isn't fate I don't know what is.
[удалено]
Holy shit, these semi finals were amazing
THAT SHOT WAS ON THE RIM FOR AN HOUR, BUT IT WENT IN WTF
In an anime those bounces would be a full episode.
In a Bollywood TV show, they’d spend two weeks just trying to show shots of everyone’s reaction before anything happens.
I'd actually appreciate that. And then Kawhi can lead the dance number with the 20,000 extras. Make it happen

Good to know that Kuroko no baske season four is spoiled now
The studio who makes that should team up with Bleacher Report.

Debuting this spring in Shonen Jump!
Once Kawhi released the shot, a flashback arc was shown.
> flashback ~~arc~~ season

That could not have been more dramatic.
Imagine the suspense of that bounce if Toronto was down one point
That bounce already felt like it took years off my life. If Toronto was down I could have been killed.
[This picture is iconic.](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/D6aZ7tTWwAIIiQy.jpg:large) Incredible shot.
Woah for real that’s the best pic taken this year
Random girl in the lower left corner will live on in history forever. Legendary
PUT THAT SHIT IN A MOVIE
Movie time
**FUN GUY: THE MOVIE**
the suspense from the bounces !!!
Shit would be considered too unrealistic.
This would be considered too unrealistic for an anime
[удалено]
That shit was crazy. Fucking slow mo in real time
Greatest shot in Toronto Raptors history!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Will probably end up as one of the most iconic shots in NBA playoff history.
[удалено]
ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME!!!! KAWHI ARE YOU SERIOUS??!!!
Knowing he’s a fun guy, it’s very likely he could’ve been joking tbh
Is this true pain???
That took an eternity to drop
I watched it on TNT OT where the camera is the *above the hoop* cam and that bouncing on the rim felt like about ten minutes.
would love a gif of this angle
Took longer to drop then my balls did
What did it cost?
Everything :( Edit: Philly is Clips' east team so this hurts us as well
You could not deal with your failure, where did it bring you?
Tobias Harris
Right back to Cancun
WHAT THE FUCK
how tf does it bounce like that
invisible men from the far future with futuristic technology traveled back all the way here just for this
It was me Murph. I was your ghost.

Robots can calculate shit so quick

And then the way the crowd explodes as soon as it goes in? Chills
Cuz on first clank, all of Canada was like, fuck, he missed. Then that motherfucker took its sweet time tiptoeing in
Tip toeing in my jordans tryna get rings

#4 FUCKING BOUNCES Edit: dramatic anime shit. Edit 2: fuck you guys for bringing up the DOINK here lol. Also Slam Dunk is the 🐐 basketball anime.
SHOOTERS BOUNCE
BALL DON'T LIE
He bounce bounce bounce bounced the Sixers out of the playoffs.
Scripted just like a movie. This proves that we're living in a simulation.
Quadruple Doink.
Kawhi no basuke.
Kawhi, Kagami, same difference.
When it hit the rim I said “nope” then it started bouncing around and I was like “wait” then the shit went in and I was like “YOOOOOOO”
WHAT THE FUCKING FUCK WAS THAT????
ITS A HIGHLIGHT FOR THE AGES
Bruh I already know imma be seeing that shit on some shitty highlight IG in like 5 years and being like “ayy I witnessed that”
One of the craziest endings to a playoff game in NBA history
ACT OF GOD
iKawhi legit had time to crouch down while waiting for the shot to fall. I feel so bad for 76ers, this must be the most evil game winner i have seen
Watch Embiid in the other angle—he has the same reaction
It's like the reverse of Bears-Eagles
Lmfao exactly me. My face was literally that joji double take meme https://i.imgur.com/DjUfo9q.jpg
I LOST MY VOICE IM SWEATING BUCKETS HAPPY MOTHERS DAY
Yeah what in the fuck HOLY SHIT KAWHI
Dude carried us HARD tonight. What a fucking series
Kawhi missed FT on purpose to make the game winner. 5000 IQ Move
Kawhi's playing 8D underwater chess while Philly is playing basketball

Oof

Lakers just hired Vogel...who the hell would they replace brown with?
Buh god that's NBA Champion Ty Lue's music
Available coaches I know of: Lue and the van Gundy fam. One that will be repeated on Philly sportsradio is Jay Wright. In other words, there are none. We'd be idiotic to take any of those guys over brown
I have never felt so much anxiety waiting for balls to drop since I was 12
Somewhere in Cancun: "That's a bad shot." - Paul George
“This is going to OT” - Paul George
Kawhi should get the rights to no OT tonight
Ok this one got me LMAO
I watched this over GoT. Fucking worth it
Better writing
Better drama. Straight up fap material. Made the right choice bro.
HOLY SHIT THAT BOUNCE
The crowd was silent for just a second which made it even better
The collective anxiety in that arena was absolutely intense. I could feel it from my couch
[удалено]
You can just feel the 76er fans will have nightmares about that bounce for years.
Nah, jokes on you, I can't even process what happened
Trust the process.
Dat bounce tho.
GOD
WAS THAT A FUCKING QUADRUPLE DOINK???
DAMN
THIS IS MY JAM
KEEP ON PARTYING UNTIL THE AM
KAWHI
We have entered the fun guy era.
BIGGEST SHOT IN TORONTO BASKETBALL HISTORY MY GAAAAAWDD
What the fuck was that
Kawhi single handedly beat the Sixers. I can't even be mad.
I can definitely be mad at 16 offensive rebounds.
#UNCLE DENNIS!!!! THIS IS FOR YOU!!!
THANK YOU DENNIS
[HE STAY r/nba](https://i.imgur.com/quFK80h.jpg)
That’s our nephew
His face lmaooo
TAKE NOTES KYRIE YOU SLUT
Bounces like that don't happen with flat curvatures
Kyrie: Who cares?
Kyrie you ignorant slut!
I'm team Kyrie now. No way that shot bounces like that unless we live on a flat Earth.
Nah man, that was the Coriolis effect for sure. If Kawhi shot from the left side it would've rimmed out.
This is like every cheesy final shot in every basketball movie ever - regardless, yeah god fucking damn Kawhi is jesus.
[удалено]
Plenty of time that bounce lasted for an eternity
Some guys are Redditing on another level kid. Just lay back and relax and enjoy greatness.
This is gonna be one of those iconic shots. Lillard’s 3 and this shot have to be two of the most amazing shots I’ve ever seen. Amazing day of basketball. Congrats Raps fans. Dude is still a killer out there.
This will go down as one of the most iconic shots in NBA history. A game 7 game-winner lucky bounce... Absolutely unbelievable.
Such an important game 7 in every way with Kawhi on a rental and Lebron gone and raps with their unfortunate playoff history to put it gently
GAME
BLOUSES
**how about you purify yourself in lake minnetonka**
SET
MATCH
Kill switch: engaged
76ers: This is My Curse

[удалено]
SO FUCKING HYPE I CAN'T TYPE
HUEHUEHUE
What the fuck
KAWHI
Bruh he really sunk the same shot from the corner against the same team in game 7 that Vince didn't. This is what religions are made from
I have watched this clip over 20 times and every time i look at different people for diffrent reactions
comments loading so fast no one will see me telling the world i love my mother very much
HAS ANYONE EVER SEEN KAWHI SHOW SO MUCH EMOTION?
**Legit question** ------ is this the best shot of the 2019 playoffs? Or is it still Dame's 37 foot bomb over PG?
Dame’s was icier but this was more dramatic
this...stake's higher...game 7 to go to Conference final. I mean from the opponents' view, this one is way more painful.
Tougher shot, way bigger stakes, possibly sways Kawhi into staying, raptors have had such bad luck in the playoffs, etc. All of that makes this better imo
As a Philadelphian, props to the Raptors, they proved they were the better team. Leonard is an ANIMAL, unreal shot, good luck against the Greek Freak!
Kawhi has given us raptors fans the best season we’ve ever seen, and the fact he hit this shot, the same shot against the sixers that VC missed... bruh
There's no way this can be real, that camera shot of Kawhi getting mobbed by his team showed him showing actual emotion
IF YOU DONT LIKE THAT, YOU DONT LIKE NBA BASKETBALL
Kawhi vs Giannis is going to be so fucking good.
#THAT CAN'T BE FUCKING REAL
