Best move ever?

by **air gordon** on Sun Jan 08, 2006 7:20 pm

i think Jordan had some good ones but the one that sticks out in my mind...

Hakeem Olajuwon faking the pants off one the best defensive big men ever in his prime, David Robinson, in the 1995 Playoffs. I believe it was Game 6

Starks against the Bulls
Ariza over Big Ben

and no one said it in here yet, but I hate people who say VC's 360 lay-up against the Lakers was a great move because it was the perfect example of a charge.

Kobe's left-handed 3 pointer against the Mavs to beat the shot-clock.

no way that was a charge, he spun out of the way of the guy who was there, who just flopped.

anything Andrew Bogut's ever done

How about the end of this http://broadband.nba.com/cc/playa.php?c ... sasmil.asx ?

michael jordan's up and under on three nets defenders
it might sound easy but you have to take a look at it, it's sheer brilliance -- probably the greatest demonstration of his hangtime

yeah it's absolutely amazing. Jordans layups are more exciting than his dunks.

Hakeem Olajuwon faking the pants off one the best defensive big men ever in his prime, David Robinson, in the 1995 Playoffs. I believe it was Game 6

this is the one where Hakeem has Robo on the baseline, does a crossover, fakes out Robinson twice and then scores?

how about some team work, Chi vs Phx....everyone remembers this...ends with Pax 3. Or Seattle moving the ball with eloquence for a Kemp dunk.

How about Jordans hustle play? gets stripped (?) against NY and hustles back to knock the ball away from the defender before he gets a layup on the break.

Or, Tay Prince...Reggie Miller....the rest is history

Hakeem faking Robinson, MJ hangtime against Nets, Carter over Weiss and Dr. J's move..my favourites (Y)

by **Matt** on Mon Jan 09, 2006 5:50 am

other moments include

Jordans block on Ewing...OWNED

Grant Hill on Zo....OWNED

Timmy Hardaway crosses Jason Kidd....OWNED

Darrell Armstrong dives on a loose ball, it look like he was sliding on ice. incredible play

Jason Kidd attempts alley-oop pass but ball is deflected against the backboard by defender so he runs in and scores a layup (kinda like T-Mac self assist in ASG)

by **air gordon** on Mon Jan 09, 2006 6:50 am

yes that was the play i was referring to

He made full contact no matter what side he spun to. Brian Cook was standing still way before and he was outside the no-charge zone.

Everything Jordan made was amazing...

by **hipn** on Mon Jan 09, 2006 7:23 am

This isnt BEST move but still nice... last week Finley dunked on some guy, forgot who, and Pippen on Ewing, and other stuff cant remember.

I'd love to see that one. I wonder why I haven't seen it, or even heard about it up until now.

by **Avrah3** on Mon Jan 09, 2006 8:00 am

I never heard of the kidd one either.

by **j.23** on Mon Jan 09, 2006 8:41 am

i have that j.kidd pass on tape, it's pretty crazy. at first i thought he botched a layup but it was pretty evident it was a pass. that was one crazy fastbreak

by **Avrah3** on Mon Jan 09, 2006 8:54 am

then uploaded it so we can see it

by **j.23** on Mon Jan 09, 2006 9:00 am

oh ok mommy, i'll get right on that after i do my homework and chew on my vitamins.

by **Its_asdf** on Mon Jan 09, 2006 9:14 am

Hakeem taking David Robinson a ride on the school bus in the playoffs was probably my all time favourite move.

by **AlwaysWhat,NeverWhy** on Mon Jan 09, 2006 9:20 am

Pete Maravich's slap-pass. (Y)

He's done it a few times, i think w/ K-Mart, definitely with Vince. If you can get some highlights of last year it should be in there.

EDIT:
http://www.nba.com/theater/countdown_week28.html

Kidd's off the glass alley-oop to KMart, #1 quicktime.

I forgot what nice moves Shareef had back before Portland, he's on this countdown twice.

That's definitley up there. There has to be a gif of that around somewhere, it was incredible.

Steve Jackson's 3 point play with Ike Diogu and Mike Dunleavy on his shoulders to ice the game against the Warriors wasn't too bad either, eh Weaver?

by **TRUball** on Mon Jan 09, 2006 5:24 pm

I don't see what's so great about Dr. J's reverse...

by **H Rock** on Mon Jan 09, 2006 6:14 pm

if you don't get it, then don't watch basketball. You're disgracing true fans.

Best move ever?
