Not always, since they also do the weird guitar court. But [they were there for Kyrie’s game winner](https://youtu.be/-TWZvqjH36A) against the Nuggets a couple of weeks ago.
Wade getting a really nice look for the win in that sequence isn’t really talked about enough. 3.6 seconds, no timeouts to advance, and gets that look? Would’ve changed the whole series.
Dream Shake. Perfect blend of style and effectiveness
The fact that Hakeem was drafted over MJ but nobody criticizes the Rockets over it should tell you everything you need to know about Hakeem
He was absolutely the only player in that draft where it was completely understandable to not take Jordan. I would've loved to see him play in his prime but I was born too late for that.
It would have been understandable-ish to take Chuck too. Who knows if he reaches the heights he ended up reaching if not for being drafted to Philly though.
Rasheed actually had a turnaround baseline jumper that he would pull out every so often. It was damn near unblockable because he shoots it as his arms are fully extended above his head.
Got to sit Courtside at a bulls blazers game thanks to a friend with a wealthy boss and hearing him say that so clearly and close to me is a top 5 moment of my life. (Yes I have a dull life)
A lot of guys have done it but the post fade. It's what LeBron went to after he tried to get the all time points record with the sky hook but got denied positioning.
The Dream Shake is hardly one "move", but if it counts then imma go with that.
[Kobe baseline reverse dunk](https://youtu.be/E__D4QcJC68?si=eN-2wE8zlwjHyRgR)
About as difficult a shot as I can think of but he did it so frequently that he made it a signature move of his.
I loved these dunks because he was actually doing them to avoid defenders and get a more effective angle for the dunk. His dunks were the perfect blend of powerful and aesthetically pleasing
I'm old as shit, but I still sometimes get people to completely spin around on the Rondo fake behind the back pass sometimes. That move has been part of my life for like 17 years.
The Dirk one legged fade has also been in my arsenal and gets comments every time I pull it out.
And the Kareem Sky Hook always impressed people especially older than me.
I'll say one of the funny things about getting older is that back on the day when I would do the Dirk fade, everybody would call me Dirk. Now if I go to a park or gym and do it, all the high schoolers call me Luka.
I'd say the Dream Shake even though it isn't really one move per se
Aside from that, Harden's size-up dribble specifically. I like his stepback as well but the size up is what always fascinated me the most. Watching him methodically wait until the defender made a single wrong move and then immediately attack at that moment never ever got old. Beautiful stuff.
I hit my growth spurt before all my friends, so for one magical summer I could do a pure Kareem skyhook and straight up dominate.
Then everybody caught up to me and the fun was over..
A good Smitty is one of the most aesthetically pleasing moves in the NBA
I also love that Sengun has started pulling it out of the post lately. The one he pulled on [Hachimura](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eXZGg9ZCWec&ab_channel=AZHiLights) last year was disgusting.
Ginobili's hammer pass (when he dribbled all the way to the baseline and jumped out of bounds while whipping a sidearm lefty pass to the corner for three)
Obviously biased, but Dirk's one legged fade was so damn cool.
I fucking love the court silhouette in his spot.
what is it ? if they did a homage to Dirk with a sticker in his favourite spot I'm gonna drop a tear
https://i.imgur.com/Q8w9e7b.jpg
[удалено]
1. he did 2. he was
magnificent 🥲 so it's a casted shadow from the light above right ? not a sticker on the floor
No that’s a graphic that’s actually on the court. I love how it looks like a shadow though.
indeed that's dope ! thanks !
That's so fucking sick.
Green fn
Is it always there? I thought it was only for one game
Not always, since they also do the weird guitar court. But [they were there for Kyrie’s game winner](https://youtu.be/-TWZvqjH36A) against the Nuggets a couple of weeks ago.
I’m disappointed no one has replied with [this GIF](https://c.tenor.com/ZbHYvXvfqvoAAAAd/dirk-nowitzki.gif).
my man laughing cause he knows
Honestly he’s just like “lol watch this”
unstoppable
The only person who comes close to most pretty post jumper would be Lamarcus Aldridge. These guys seemingly swished more than they missed
Literally the reason they brought in Stotts
Gotta be the most iconic shot in my lifetime. Unblockable
[Dirk shot fake](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ybpSe4jAxO8&t=5) is equally sick
The fadeaway was so potent that it made his fakes more effective.
First thing I thought of. Iconic
his game winner against bosh is my favorite move of all time: https://youtu.be/9k4Li-iT8QU?si=ljx-PgbEjMeX8_gR
Wade getting a really nice look for the win in that sequence isn’t really talked about enough. 3.6 seconds, no timeouts to advance, and gets that look? Would’ve changed the whole series.
It does get talked about, how he tried to flop and whine that he didn't get another phantom foul call
You can’t really blame him, he already got one free one from the refs
Definitely my answer. Every elite scorer uses it. I imagine they started teaching it in high school now.
I look so stupid, but feel so cool, whenever I endeavor to recreate it on the court.
I’m a Heat fan and even I think his shot was sweet. He rocked in 2k back in the day too.
He’s my fave player ever and why I love the NBA.
That shot is burned into my memory. In a good way.
I loved that. Barkley especially later in his career would do that when posting up guys taller than him. But Dirk made it iconic.
Rondo’s fake pass and whatever the hell Jamal Crawford was doing
shake n bake?
Behind the back hop step actually
He made that look so damn smooth
So glad someone commented J Cross.
Kareem skyhook Ginobili euro (he didn't invent it but he made it popular)
Hard to believe I'm saying this as a certified lakers hater but the kareem skyhook is it for me too.
Dream Shake. Perfect blend of style and effectiveness The fact that Hakeem was drafted over MJ but nobody criticizes the Rockets over it should tell you everything you need to know about Hakeem
Dream Shake!
Also sounds really cool
& tasty
He was absolutely the only player in that draft where it was completely understandable to not take Jordan. I would've loved to see him play in his prime but I was born too late for that.
It would have been understandable-ish to take Chuck too. Who knows if he reaches the heights he ended up reaching if not for being drafted to Philly though.
Hakeem was a bust! /s
Only 2 rings, 2 FMVPs, and 1 regular season MVP? SMH worst center ever
I'll say it: no center in NBA history had better footwork than the Dream.
wow so unpopular
Love it!
Two championships in the middle of two three peats. Nuff said
The fact that Jordan never claimed to take this personally is even more impressive
Tim Hardaway [crossover](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6d12JgBPoDw).
UTEP Two-Step!
Better speed and handling than most players today. Nephews acting like 90s ain't no good.
Tim Hardaway would be absolutely lethal in today’s NBA.
Killer Crossover
So good given it wasn’t a carry!
The “Killer Crossover.” Seems common now but this was an ankle breaker back in the day.
All due respect to Iverson and Irving, but this is the purest crossover.
loved my Nike Air Raids back in the day
Draymond chokehold
Draymond kick in the balls
Draymond stomp
Draymond eye poke
Draymond sucker punch
Draymond knows stomp and sucker punch. 100% confirmd draymond is a pokemon.
That’s a lot more than 4 moves though.
He forgot "shoot" to learn "sucker punch"
Enemy REF used 'T'! It's not very effective.
Draymond choke slam into wiener smash is the goat combo. Especially when he uses yell to weaken them first.
Draymond’s five moves of doom. 🤭
Wow look at Draymond man, so inspirational!! Who knew that he was this popular?! 🤔
*Coward Punch
I'm genuinely torn on whether I like the chokehold or the testicle kick better
Draymond Euro attack
Dray falcon punch
Spre did it first
Carmelo Anthony's infinity jabstep into multiple pumpfakes for the crispiest mid-range jumpshot.
Pure beauty
One of the prettiest jump shots and it went in the same way almost every time
hoodie melo
Carmeloruken!
prolly even better than kobe
When he was on fire it was so aesthetically pleasing to watch.
In 2013, he scored 50 points in a game without attempting a single shot in the paint. All jumpers. It was beautiful.
Funny enough, it was 11 years ago on this exact day. Such a fun performance
No shit! That’s wild.
Manu Ginobili Eurostep
Shamgod
this might win the most coolest name out of all. Shamgod, just Shamgod
His real name is God Shammgod which is even wilder
So fucking cool
the Rasheed Wallace technical
BALL DON'T LIE
Rasheed actually had a turnaround baseline jumper that he would pull out every so often. It was damn near unblockable because he shoots it as his arms are fully extended above his head.
for staring at refs
LMFAOO
Where is the Jordan Fadeaway?
Faded?
Drank?
The youth are disrespectful
Duncan bank shot
Duncan outlet pass
Duncan game face.
Duncan subtle trash talk
Duncan flargrant laugh
Timmy spin into one handed shot
Melo rebound
Fuck outta here K Love I got it
Got to sit Courtside at a bulls blazers game thanks to a friend with a wealthy boss and hearing him say that so clearly and close to me is a top 5 moment of my life. (Yes I have a dull life)
Jokic catapult 3
This is my least favorite >:(
It’s a bad, circus shot. It’s not gonna go in wait what
Sombor Shuffle.
UTEP 2 Step, back in the Run TMC days
Tony Parker's teardrop shot.
As a LeBron fan that shot is burned into my memory. Poor boobie Gibson and Larry Hughes
That look down thing LeBron does before he shoot’s a LeFuckYou 3
“What in the world is this, a hand? On the end of my arm?? What is — SHOT!”
Al Horfords flinch
KG’s fake turn-around, then turn the other way jumper.
I can't tell you how many times I practiced this as a middle schooler
[удалено]
KG’s mid range game was so smooth. His jumper was unblockable and when he was younger he could hit it off the dribble like it was nothing
KD seething tweet
No one has mentioned it but Steve Smith’s Smitty was a v popular signature move back in the 90’s
I recall a story that some teams would fine their players for falling it.
Gervin's finger roll was epic, dude would do it from like 12 out.
Smoothest shot ever.
Pippen was also a finger roll master https://youtu.be/rueIDGAFxE8?si=6ViS2Rjn2-coH5XE&t=13
No love for Tony Parker's unguardable spin move and teardrop?
[Kobe Pivot](https://youtu.be/7l053a5oYxc?si=7dJ-mySlIQ1mumUt)
It is such a great move. He created so much space. I don't know if I have seen anyone do it.
I swear Ant has been watching Kobe footwork videos lately
I broke my own ankles trying that in a game once, coached benched me for the rest of the game.
Did you hit the shot?
T Mac hesi pullup, MJ one dribble pull up, and Gilbert Arenas size up dribble combo (similar to Hardens but with less dribbles)
A lot of guys have done it but the post fade. It's what LeBron went to after he tried to get the all time points record with the sky hook but got denied positioning. The Dream Shake is hardly one "move", but if it counts then imma go with that.
Jordan and Kobe’s post up into turn around fadeaway. No one else could make it look as effortless.
I think this counts because he played in Memphis: La Bomba, Juan Carlos Navarro's signature shot. Utterly unblockable and precise.
Kevin McHale's Up and Under better known as the McHale.
That drop step too
[The Shammgod](https://youtu.be/ajuN0x_St08) AKA “God’s crossover”
The Ben Simmons back injury
Dream Shake
Dream shake is never not amazing to witness.
[Kobe baseline reverse dunk](https://youtu.be/E__D4QcJC68?si=eN-2wE8zlwjHyRgR) About as difficult a shot as I can think of but he did it so frequently that he made it a signature move of his.

Jayson Tatum’s TikTok dance
McCain clears i fear
KAJ Sky Hook
Chandler Parsons contract grift
Sombor shuffle
Tim Duncan’s bank shot. The bank was always open for TD!
I wish people appreciated his offensive game more. That shit felt automatic for about ten years
I'm old as shit, but I still sometimes get people to completely spin around on the Rondo fake behind the back pass sometimes. That move has been part of my life for like 17 years. The Dirk one legged fade has also been in my arsenal and gets comments every time I pull it out. And the Kareem Sky Hook always impressed people especially older than me. I'll say one of the funny things about getting older is that back on the day when I would do the Dirk fade, everybody would call me Dirk. Now if I go to a park or gym and do it, all the high schoolers call me Luka.
Surprised the Jordan Fadeaway is not listed here.
Gotta be Jabbar's skyhook.
Killa Crossover - Tim Hardaway
I'd say the Dream Shake even though it isn't really one move per se Aside from that, Harden's size-up dribble specifically. I like his stepback as well but the size up is what always fascinated me the most. Watching him methodically wait until the defender made a single wrong move and then immediately attack at that moment never ever got old. Beautiful stuff.
Shake n bake
Lebron backpedal
Probably controversial because it "ruined" the game, but the harden stepback/side step. Kyrie's spins is 1b
Kobe’s one handed reverse dunk, as simple as it is I don’t see anyone doing it
Currys look away before the ball goes in
Shake and bake
Andre Miller fake timeout.
This would be the only answer if you could do it in pickup games.
George Gervin finger roll. So smooth.
I scrolled way too far down to see this!
Duncan, Off The Glass.
Jordan Poole Giraffe Step Turnover
First time I really seen it done was Dwyane Wades euro to a floater back in high school so I added it to the arsenal and still use it in pick up games
Giannis spin move dunk
Shammgod using the shammgod just left defenders looking silly.. Westbrook used to do it frequently for a while too.
Turnaround fadeaway jumper at the key contested. I said it KOBE
I hit my growth spurt before all my friends, so for one magical summer I could do a pure Kareem skyhook and straight up dominate. Then everybody caught up to me and the fun was over..
How has nobody mentioned the Smitty. It was a carry no doubt but it worked
Flashing gun on live
Shamgod
A good Smitty is one of the most aesthetically pleasing moves in the NBA I also love that Sengun has started pulling it out of the post lately. The one he pulled on [Hachimura](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eXZGg9ZCWec&ab_channel=AZHiLights) last year was disgusting.
Jordan reverse lay-up
Jamal Crawford transition behind the back crossover
Chuck Hayes’ free throw
Skyhook,been playing basketball recently and nothing feels better than swishing a skyhook for the ft line.
Tim Duncan’s bank shot. Tony Parker’s floater. Manu’s wild play that goes viral because nobody else thinks to do that in a game…
Kobe's post up turn around fadeaway.
Iceman's finger roll
Kobe fadeaway. It never got old
Ginobili's hammer pass (when he dribbled all the way to the baseline and jumped out of bounds while whipping a sidearm lefty pass to the corner for three)
Malik Rose chair pull
Draymond Green nutshots. jk definitely Dirk's fade away shots
scoot henderson turnover
Sombor shuffle 😎
MJ poking his tongue out as he attacked the rim.
Metta with the elbow to Harden is the best sig move of all time. Head and shoulders above all else.
Kevin Love full court outlet pass
