Worth another look: Khalid El-Amin's Upset of the Year capper

The toast of Vilnius

Readers of BallinEurope know that BiE loathes hyperbole in sports reportage. But seriously, Lietuvos Rytas upending Caja Laboral Baskonia, 89-86, in Spain last night? Upset of the 2010-11 season thus far, no?

So below the break runs a short clip of heroics from Khalid El-Amin, who contributed 22 points on crazy 7-of-8 overall shooting, and the rest. Thrill again to Baskonia’s rollercoaster ride of doom as Mirza Teletovic smoothly hits the three to tie things up; goggle again to El-Amin’s awesome launch from waaaaaaaaaaay beyond the arc to win; and marvel again at the incredible sound of 9,000-plus attendees at Fernando Buesa Arena simultaneously gasping with existential horror. (If you can hear it below the corny Euroleague-overdubbed guitar riffing, that is.)
