Everyone has seen “The Shot” — Michael Jordan’s game-and-series winning jumper over the Cleveland Cavaliers in Game 5 of the 1989 Eastern Conference First Round.

The craziest part is the aggressive reporter yelling to get Jordan’s attention — “Michael! Michael you stuck it, Baby!” — which gives you an inside look at what it’s like to be a famous athlete.

Though, for what it’s worth, we can’t shake the image of that reporter being none other than Wayne Knight’s Stan Podolak from “Space Jam” (even though the movie came out seven years later).
