NBA's Top 10's of the Year

i think only 1 block by lebron deserved to be there and the 2 others should be replaced by the Rose block and the Maxiell block which was both sick!

Not in My House: Top 10 Blocks of 08-09 Season

Ugh, that sums up perfectly why I hate Wade. He blocks the shot, turns around facing the crowd and starts celebrating while the ball is still in play. WTF? I'd have loved it if Lopez picked up the loose ball and dunked it on the back of his head while he was congratulating himself.

Same here, but I hate the fact that he is really arrogant after winning that championship and started taunting every player he blocked more. He's been acting like a real jerk lately, especially last season where he was the scoring champ.

I would've put Allen Iverson's bounce pass as the number one assist. I also agree that LeBron is featured too prominently in the top ten blocks. Not that they aren't nice blocks in their own right, but you probably could pick just one of the three to be featured lower on the list.

Your right, Andrew. The AI pass was really difficult. Something you cannot say about every pass in this top 10. A wrap around or behind the back are things most of us can perform (although not in such a hurry, but hey we aint pros) whilst a half court bounce pass is really tough to throw.

Where does the arrogance show? And who has he taunted?

After watching all the countdowns, its looks like Philadephia gets owned alot

Shut up!

Where doesn't the arrogance show

Fixed

Thanks Jae.

Wade practically taunts everyone he blocks/dunks on except for Kobe or LeBron.

Yeah, he's the only one who does that.

Well, Wade isn't the only player who does that, but he stands out and his taunting and arrogance has been increasing constantly.

At least he is in my opinion in a position where he can allow himself to taunt players. Especially when he taunts against 7 feet Lopez who just got owned on this play.
Dont get me wrong, I dont think its cool to taunt all the time and hey I am everything but no D-Wade lover, but Im even more tired of mediocre players like Tyrus Thomas taunting just because they can dunk and block but nothing else.

That's the thing. Those other passes were nice and top ten worthy, but I think the bounce pass was punished because there was no wraparound or anything like that and the finish was a basic layup. But as you said, it's the difficulty, the way he threaded the needle over that distance and through the pack in transition was impressive.

Top 10 Alley-Opps from the 08/09 Season

FINALLY NO LEBRON!

This video was really good, imo. My favourite alley-opps were from Bobcats players and Maxiell (I'd put his dunk over Westbrook and VC).

That Top 10 alley-oop video should be filled with Sergio-to-Fernandez They had one of the most spectacular plays IMO. The only others I'd put in there are Maxiells and Carters. I love Carters alley-oop and the look on his face, like it's nothing special.

I thought Miller-to-Iguodala was pretty impressive, I'd probably put it a couple of places higher on the countdown. Still, not too many complaints about that top ten.

that was a good top ten. all quality and deserving and in the right spots.

Wallace over Oden was my favorite. Westbrook also. No Lebron was odd, I'm sure he received an alley-oop this season.

Finally a top 10 including dunks but excluding lebitch

Top 10 Circus Shots

I love big baby shot because it shows what great decision Paul Pierce made. If that was Kobe or LeBron im sure they'd take the shot theirselves

Good top ten, but number one felt a bit anti-climactic after some of the earlier entries. I would've put it a few spots lower but no big deal.

Carter and Iggy!
