These are the 10 most iconic moments in NBA history, and for number 10, we got the dunk
00:00:19.020
that created one of the most iconic NBA photos of all time.
00:00:55.880
Wait, why are you guys saying I'm going to get banned?
00:01:03.040
Now, as legendary as this pick is, it's still not as iconic as number 9, the time that
00:01:09.420
Michael Jordan got absolutely humiliated by a rookie, Allen Iverson.
00:01:18.500
And this is why Michael Jordan is not better than LeBron, because on God, AI would not do
00:01:45.400
Because in our 8th most iconic moment, he hit Ty Lue with the most disrespectful move in
00:01:56.200
Oh my god, this is actually disgusting as fuck, bro.
00:01:59.860
Wait, why are you guys all saying I'm going to get banned?
00:02:04.480
Why are you guys all saying I'm going to get banned?
00:02:20.220
I'm an idiot for listening to you guys, but I can't believe you guys are actually out there
00:02:24.320
Like, that's crazy that people in this chat generally want me to get banned.
00:02:49.540
Bro, that should actually be a technical foul if you guys think about it.
00:03:00.560
Now, if we're talking iconic moments, we gotta mention number 7.
00:03:22.520
Miami was down 3 points and were just 15 seconds away from being officially eliminated
00:03:29.040
from the playoffs when Ray Allen got the ball and hit the most clutch shot in NBA Finals
00:03:58.140
This one shot single-handedly saved the heat from...
00:04:15.600
And after winning the game in overtime, Miami went on to beat the Spurs in Game 7, securing
00:04:27.520
But it still can't compare to the insanity of number 5.
00:04:35.420
The Patriots have played a very intelligent team today.
00:04:43.880
This has potential to be serious if they don't get between.
00:04:50.840
Steven Jackson and a team Wallace trying to be peacemaker about Jackson yelling.
00:04:56.060
The problem is, if Wallace is ejected, I'm not sure.
00:04:59.140
Now our chest has jumped over the scorers table and is trying to get down to the bench!
00:05:06.240
I mean, like, why would you throw something at him, though?
00:05:16.920
Wait, chat, what was the punishment that happened after this?
00:05:26.740
Yeah, I don't think the NBA is ever going to forget Malice at the Palace.
00:05:31.240
And, uh, I don't think they're going to forget number four either.
00:05:37.580
Chas were down three games to one against the Warriors.
00:05:41.040
And one more L would have eliminated Cleveland from the playoffs.
00:05:45.660
But instead of dropping the series and crushing LeBron's dreams of winning...
00:05:49.260
LeBron had the greatest defensive play of all time.
00:06:24.280
and bring a championship to his beloved hometown.
00:06:28.560
As soon as that buzzer sounded, your emotions let loose.
00:06:35.200
Can you describe what you're feeling right now?
00:06:37.840
I set out a goal when I came back to bring a championship to the city.
00:06:48.540
I poured my heart, my blood, my sweat, my tears to this game.
00:06:54.400
They're saying, this is what he wants me to do.
00:07:01.280
The Cavs not only won their first championship in franchise history,
00:07:06.080
but they also became the first team to ever come back from a 3-1 hole in the NBA Finals.
00:07:12.060
I mean, we're probably never going to see a comeback like this again.
00:07:23.480
And what better way to start than with Shaq and Kobe?
00:07:28.640
the Lakers were taking on the Blazers in Game 7 of the Western Conference Finals.
00:07:34.480
And one more win would send Shaq and Kobe to their first ever championship series.
00:07:44.280
Shaq and Kobe put the Blazers to bed with an iconic alley-oop dunk.
00:07:58.640
Kobe Bryant's two free throws and then a jumper gave the Lakers a four-point lead.
00:08:05.000
And now his assist to Shaquille O'Neal makes it a six-point difference with 41 and 3 tenths seconds left.
00:08:12.200
Just 40 seconds later, the Lakers eliminated the Blazers.
00:08:18.100
Shaq and Kobe went on to win their first of three NBA...
00:08:32.820
Because you're about to witness the perfect ending to the NBA...
00:09:00.220
Chicago is one win away from capping off their second three-peat
00:09:18.200
and created a moment that will live on forever.
00:09:45.400
But you guys gotta look at that Jazz team, bro.
00:09:47.960
Like, y'all really can't even name who that player was.
00:10:10.740
That may have been the last shot Michael Jordan will ever take in the NBA.
00:10:24.880
This championship winning shot was the final play of Jordan's career with the Bulls.
00:10:46.920
And it features none other than the Black Mamba himself, Kobe Bryant.
00:11:05.800
and millions of fans around the world watching,
00:11:31.000
it's what he said in his farewell speech afterwards
00:11:53.600
to be standing here at center court with you guys,
00:12:04.820
I literally can't believe that he passed away, bro.
00:12:16.600
This motherfucker is literally a fucking icon, bro.
00:12:26.020
I think the most important part is that we all stayed together throughout.
00:13:08.800
you holding down the family the way that you have.
00:13:15.800
I have literal goosebumps throughout my entire body,
00:13:22.880
there's no way that I can thank you enough for that.
