The only thing missing from the game-winner was Craig Ehlo falling down in the background.<\/p>\n

It wasn’t a frame-by-frame, mirror image of Michael Jordan’s game-winning basket in the 1989 NBA playoffs, but Thursday night’s game-winner by sophomore guard Richie Rosa of St. Peter’s Prep had a very similar feel to it. Jordan’s iconic moment, simply known as ‘The Shot’ is a classic moment in NBA history.<\/p>\n

Rosa’s shot, from about 18 feet, definitely had some Jordan-esque vibes to it.<\/p>\n

Rosa’s jump shot at the buzzer on Thursday night sends St. Peter’s Prep (Jersey City, New Jersey) through to the NJSIAA Non Public North A finals. The Marauders have now won five in a row and will face Don Bosco Prep<\/a>\u00a0(Ramsey, New Jersey) on Monday night.<\/p>\n

Great shot by Rosa and those Jordan vibes are undeniable.<\/p>\n

Unlike Jordan, who did an iconic series of fist pumps, Rosa chose not to celebrate. Instead, the sophomore walked stoically while his teammates mobbed him.<\/p>\n

After a shot like that, Rosa can do whatever he wants.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
