Craig Ehlo 'shocked' by Ron Harper's 'Last Dance'

Craig Ehlo is on the wrong side of one on the best-known shots in NBA history.

Thirty-one years later, he’s hearing flak about it from a former teammate. And he didn’t see it coming.

The average basketball fan has seen the clip of Michael Jordan’s buzzer-beater to lead the Chicago Bulls past the Cleveland Cavaliers in the 1989 playoffs countless times.

With the Bulls trailing by one in a decisive Game 5, Jordan took an inbounds pass and sunk a 17-foot jump shot over the outstretched hand of Ehlo as the buzzer sounded to eliminate the Cavs.

The shot was a significant step in Jordan’s rise to all-time great status and was featured Sunday on ESPN’s broadcast of “The Last Dance” documentary.

Ron Harper — Jordan’s teammate on three Bulls championship teams and a member of the Cavs at the time — was interviewed in “The Last Dance.” He was surprisingly salty.

Not for Jordan hitting the shot — but over Ehlo’s defense on the decisive play.

Harper described his account of the defense being set up on the last play. In NSFW terms, Harper made clear that he was not pleased with head coach Lenny Wilkens’ call.
