Kind of makes you wonder what J-Mac could have achieved if he had been allowed to play from the beginning, and not given a pity five minutes. -

If this video doesn't motivate or sway your feelings for a few minutes then you must put life on hold.
My brain, my muscles, my love, my reason to smile, my reason for all the good or bad I’ve done or the disastrous things happening in our world; are all put to sleep, as I watch this boy create a magical motivational moment for me to feel that my life was misplaced for a certain amount of time while viewing this boy create the calm true reality that could fix any problem if it was tangible enough and had the ability to blanket everyone.
Wow… I can’t say how many times I’ve watched this but I can say that I receive the same calming relieve every time I replay it. -

GREAT Story! You can't fault the coach -- every team member was dedicated to the school and their parents lived vicariously through them... still the coach had the insight and compassion enough to allow him his moment -- a moment NO ONE will forget! whereas had he played more it wouldn't have sent the message three times around the globe:
EVERYONE DESERVES A MOMENT IN THE SPOTLIGHT -- BAR NONE!!

Although the shot was a thrill, the sadness is that these children need to be included form the get go, not thrown a bone in the last seconds of the game. How would he have felt if it did not go that way. He should have always been allowed to play, even for just a few moments. Inclusion should be the rule not the exception. -

I have an autistic son who's in to sport and found this very inspiratinal. What a thrill for J-Mac to shine in front of friends family and team mates. -

Great story - so now, why didn't he play the whole game/season/time he was in high school. The shame is that they waited until the last possible moment to trust in him, hopefully the next hero will be believed in a lot earlier. -

The amazing demonstration of belief that whatever your true desire of the heart are you can obtain. Jmac said the basket look like a barrel as he made another 3 pointer. -
