    So many to choose from. Probably some I don't even know about.

    How about Jordan stripping Karl Malone on one end with his team down by one point and then hitting the game winner on the other end? That was in Game 6 of the NBA Finals, and Game 7 would have been held in Utah. Considering that was Jordan's final shot with the Chicago Bulls, that makes elevates the greatness of the moment to another level.

    Jerry West's halfcourt winner.


    But if we're talking basketball, Vince's slam on Fred Weis is just not..... humanly possible!

    I agree, it was amazing, and to go along that it was his last shot in a Bulls uniform, and it won them the title, it has to be up there with the top plays

    Pippen

    Probably not the greatest play in nba history, but Pippen's dunk over Ewing was pretty awesome

    I don't know how this shot slipped through the NBA radar so quietly last season:

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tfh2sgpuDBw

    Probably the best clutch shot of the year, especially considering it was in Dallas and the W's had beaten the Mavs in Dallas earlier in the year on a less spectacular game-winning shot by Baron Davis. Hilarious video too, look at the bald guy freaking out in the background at 00:11, Cuban's face at 1:31 is priceless, and the J-Rich-Barnett hand slap and shoulder bump is hilarious too.

    Of all time I'd have to say Jordan's last shot for the Bulls.

    Fishers shot with 0.4 seconds left and McGrady's 13 points in 35 seconds. Both are amazing.

    Sick Jordan plays..

    This one nasty alley-opp VC caught from Kidd. And a lotta other VC plays. Fisher's 0.4 second shot was nice too.

    The insane layup Jordan did against the Nets. Play #2 on this countdown.

    ^Ive seen that Jordan layup before, absolutely ridiculous. He triple pumps it and hangs in the air longer than ive ever seen. For some reason I really liked when Dwyane Wade rejected Shawn marion and then turned around and made a buzzer beater from 3/4's court.

    Yeah that one was nice too, and the fact, that he shot it, usually that wouldnt be smart cuz then its a missed 3 pt attempt.

    Lol the announcer uses so much big words, Jubilation and improbable, he sounds kinda funny when he says it.

    Awesome video.</div>

    Sick video, thanks durvasa.

    The Jordan lay-up on Petrovich...amazing. I like the Barkley and Ewing one as well.

    JoeJohnson03, yea that Pippen dunk on Ewing was mind blowing [​IMG]. I don't hate Ewing they were just both great plays.

    That Dwayne Wade block on Marion and 3/4 court shot was amazing.

    I can't believe I missed that J-Rich 3 pointer to ice the game against Dallas. I distinctly remember looking at the game summaries on NBA.com and saw that GS beat Dallas again at there house. I tried watching the highlights and it wouldn't work. Oh well it was a great shot.


    Miller, Magic, and MJ = best plays imo.
