The score was tied 100-100 in Game 3 of the 1970 NBA Finals between the Los Angeles Lakers and the New York Knicks. There were only 3 seconds left on the clock. Walt Frazier of the Knicks inbounded the ball. Jerry West, guarded by Dick Barnett, received the pass at mid-court and launched a desperation 64 feet shot as the buzzer sounded. The ball went in, sending the game into overtime (which the Lakers ultimately lost).
