"I will never let go, Jo. I'll never let go." -- T.J. McConnell, probably.

You've probably already seen T.J. McConnell's buzzer-beater against the Knicks on Wednesday night, which propelled the Sixers to a 98-97 win, their fourth in five games, and left the near sell-out crowd at the Wells Fargo Center either totally elated or completely deflated.

It all depended on what shade of blue you were wearing.

But now -- actually hold on for a second.

But now, witness the shot like you've never seen it before, the way James Cameron and Celine Dion originally intended.

I don't know why everything is so much better with the "Titanic" theme music over top of it, but who am I to question such things.

Here are a few of my other favorites from a similar handle, @TitanicOnThings:
