Audio Flashback: Glide Calls Bank at the Buzzer

The offseason continues, as does our Trail Blazers Audio Flashbacks series. Today, we look back at Clyde Drexler's dramatic turnaround buzzer-beater to beat the Milwaukee Bucks on December 4, 1994. Bucks big man Vin Baker hit a game-tying to leave 0.9 seconds left for Portland to go for the win in regulation from the inbound (sound familiar?). Legendary Trail Blazers broadcaster Bill Schonely takes you through the action:

Drexler would be traded to title hopeful Houston two months later, with the buzzer-beater perhaps serving as the last great memory of "The Glide" in a Rip City uniform and the most memorable last-second winner in team history until Brandon Roy's 2008 shot versus the Houston Rockets or Damian Lillard's aforementioned three pointer, also against the Rockets , in Game Six of the First Round of the 2014 NBA Playoffs.
