An epic game winner in March Madness had quite the resemblance to a legendary game winner in the NBA postseason.

10-seed Colorado took down seven-seed Florida 102-100 in the first round of the NCAA Division I Men's Basketball via a successful two-pointer from K.J. Simpson that took its time along the rim before going through the hoop.

Simpson delivers the dagger after receiving the inbounds pass and it takes one large bounce and then several small caroms before finally settling into the netting and giving Colorado the lead.
