Name the players you felt did a certain scoring move the best.The spin move- By far Earl "The Pearl" Monroe. He could use that on ANYBODY.The bank shot-Sam Jones. Seems like it always went in.The dunk -Michael Jordan hands down. Who didnt he dunk on?The hook shot-Kareem Abdul Jabbar. No questions asked.The penetration-Thats a tough one probably Isiah Thomas. One handed short jumper-Bob PettitFinger Roll-George Gervin hans down.3 pointer-Reggie Miller
I also want to add, Even though its not so much a scoring move.John Havlicek has got to have the best endurance in NBA history.
The Michael Jordan fade-away was just insane. Also Kareem's hook shot was "the thing" in the 80's and 70's.But Kobe's fadeaway is the new big thing. That shot in the ASG when he tied it up was sick!
The Kareem sky hook and MJ"s fadeaway is unguardable.In todays game you have:Tim Duncans triple threat move (bank shot, running hook, or post up fadeaway shot)Shaq - Back you down, dunk on you KG - Turnaround jumperKobe - fadeaway jumperWade - Bank shot (not that dominant yet, but will be in a few years) - Reason I bring him up is because hes proably the only guy besides Duncan that utilizes the bank shot like Same Jones did back in the day.
The spin move- Shaquille O' Neal. Then he got the ball in the post, he could score whenever he used the spin. Also used for Alley OopsThe bank shot-I honestly do not knowThe dunk -Perimiter: MJ - The man dunked the ball over more guys than any perimiter playerInside: Shaq - The man is currently in the tail end of his career, and still dunks in numerous times a game in the postThe hook shot-Kareem Abdul Jabbar - He scored a few points from it... Only a fewThe penetration-Magic Johnson... HaHa... That wasn't funny. Oh well, I'm going to say Allen Iverson. The guy is actually about 5'10 and can get into that lane everytimeOne handed short jumper-Bob PettitFinger Roll-George Gervin - Again, scored a few points off it3 pointer-Reggie Miller - All Time leader in 3 balls made, made them in the clutch, in warmups, made them all day, everyday

The Drop Step dunk is actually the best scoring move, it's really no debate. I'd feel much better having Shaq do that in a close game to seal it then any other move in the NBA with any other player in the NBA.

The spin move- Shaquille O' Neal. The bank shot-Tim Duncan - hes great at thisThe dunk -Michael JordanThe hook shot-Kareem Abdul Jabbar - Sky Hook- a classic moveOne handed short jumper-IDKFinger Roll-George Gervin -ice, ice baby3 pointer-Reggie Miller - is there any competition?
Don't forget the crossover, names like penny hardaway, allen iverson and stephon marbury come to mind.
3 pointer - Ray Allen is gonna take over lol he has just about 1000 more to make to pass him. But when comes down to off the ball pass for a 3 reggie has got it
