    Oh, I just have that one game stuck in my mind, nevermind. I guess yeah I was talking about actual games.What I'm trying to say is that Nate Robinson dunking over Spud Webb is not a signature move, as an example.

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (dsounG @ Jun 14 2006, 09:20 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>What are you talking about? He did it 4 times. One in '02, One in '03, One in '04 and One in '05.Unless your talking about in game. If you are...I get ya.</div>T-Mac's off the backboard move has been used about 10 times in games. Twice in All-Star games, once in Boston when he was a Magic, one in Toronto (playing as a Magic on the road), and I have seen him do it in Orlando a few times. So, it is his signature move. It counts.Another one - Antoine Walker's wiggle! Haha, can't forget that one.

    LeBron has that signature dunk on breakaways where he tomahawks it. One handed. 4 feet in the air. BOOM!It was the first picture ever of him against Sacremento, and if I'm not mistaken it was hus first point in the preseason against Detroit. That is what you expect from him on breakaways.

It is alright, but after the 5 millionth time seeing it, it gets old.If no one has said it, Wade pulls back the ball before he does a cross over or takes off (a lot of times it is traveling).Hmmm, Does Damon Jones holding up his fingers to make the three signal count? He also does that stupid kick (as seen below)[​IMG]I think Shaq's slam was already said.I will try and think some others up later.

    Everyone I have watched has a signature free throw dribble or move. LeBron has his dunk.Shaq has his dunk where he kicks up his legs and pulls the rim down.I will see how many more I can think of.

    The reason Lebron called up sick on the night of the dunk contest is because he has no creativity. That dunk will probably be about the only dunk he does for the next 15 years, so get used to it.

    Pierce's up-fake, get bumped, drain a jumper, and the foul. This movie is so old school, I love it. It really needs a name. Brian Scalabrine's air ball three.

    Wade also has the fade-away jumper from mid-range which is where a lot of his points come from

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (CelticBalla32 @ Jun 14 2006, 06:10 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>The Paul Pierce step-back is deadly! He either pulls a jumper in your eye or draws a foul.</div>Exactly what I was gonna say. I wish Paul Pierce could get on a contender where we can see what he's really made of, because he's a player thats almost impossible to guard. Silky smooth, but strong, can get to the rim, step-back J. He does everything well and really has no weaknesses.

    When Nash drives to the basket it is soo great. He can do that move on anybody and I mean ANYBODY. Doesnt matter if they are big or small he will take you to the hoop.
