The NBA regular season ended Wednesday night and who knows what’s in store for what is sure to be a wide open playoff battle. But below are the plays we’ve seen since November that look almost inhuman.
5. Khris Middleton’s Friendly Rim At The Buzzer
Middleton gets the in-bound pass and squeezes off a shot at the buzzer for the win.
4. Andrew Wiggins Posterizes Rudy Gobert
Gobert is 7-foot-2. So, ya, this is impressive.
3. Derrick Williams Poster-Dunk On Bismack Biyombo
Biyombo is 6-foot-9, but Williams’ authority on this play dropped jaws across the country and gave him the No. 1 play of the season on ESPN.
2. J.R. Smith’s Dumble-Pump Reverse Alley-oop
This is something you see in an All-Star weekend Slam Dunk Contest, not an actual regular season game.
1. Stephen Curry Goes Through The Legs, Behind Back, For Step Back 3
Have you ever seen anything like this? No one has. That’s why it’s number one.
Just look at head coach Steve Kerr’s reaction. Priceless.
Curry is the best shooter of our generation, possibly in the history of the NBA. It would be nothing short of surprising to see him and the Warriors in the NBA Finals this summer.
