    MJ of course. Right now? KG.

    Now I'm starting to get the idea why purehoops started this thread. It's because he knew that all of us is gonna say KG. hehehe

    At the moment I'd say Duncan, KG or Jermaine O'Neal.

    Ok, when I start getting annoyed with these who better threads, you know that something is wrong. :mrgreen:

    Now on the topic, I would have to say Hakeem Olajuwon. He had one of the greatest one-on-one moves in the history of basketball with the "Dream Shake". During his prime that fadeaway move was simply unstopable. MJ had a really nice fadeaway however I would take the Dream Shake.

    Jermaine Oneal has a sweet one, so does Yao Ming, he has a nice touch i saw it in the Wizard game...MJ has the best all Time, Kobe has a nice one but the Best in the L today is Garnett, his shot is so high arching it is nearly impossible to block, he makes it most of the time also

    Kobe has one of the best Fade-aways. Even Red Auerbach said that! You know Red doesn' lie!

    Right now I would give it to the Big Tickets, but all time has to go to Hakeem 'Dream' Olajuwon.

    No question that it is KG right now...and MJ all-time. I like purehoop's idea to create a thread where people would either have to praise his favorite player or go the "all-time" route.. [​IMG]

    The Dream Shake and his Airness had the best, most deadly.

    Now KG, Kobe, and T-mac...have all got a sweet fade...especially KG since he's so tall.

    MJ can embarrass an opponent with a quick drive to the hoop, or he can pull up and knock down a fade-away jumper. Often, I too drive my opponents crazy with my taunts begging them to shoot the jumper because I am too tired to stop them from driving. I also have pulled up next to my stereo and listened to the Rolling Stones? ?Fade Away.? Good tune.

    KG and J. O'neal are currently the best at post up fade away's.

    Dirk is also pretty good at them too.
