    Check out the NBA's top ten plays of the year on ESPN.com. Three Rockets highlights are included with, of course, T-Mac's incredible final-minute thirteen-point blizzard to beat the Spurs. The one glaring omission, in my opinion, is Yao's behind-the-back move on SAR.

    That Yao move is the first one I thought of. Because we all know that a 7'6" 320 lbs. guy running solo on a break who does a behind-the-back dribble at full speed to evade the defender is a common site...

    That was a bit of a homer statement, which is cool, but his play wasn't even number one on ESPN for that day. Ya' gotta be realistic sometimes. ;)

    The Desmond Mason and Josh Smith dunks were nice and all, but what exactly make them top 10?

    The Josh Smith dunk was downright NASTY!!! Very reminiscent of Dr. J and Darryl Dawkins.

    I would like to see Shawn Bradley do that. Or Shaq for that matter.

    You're right, now that I took another look, he took off from further than I first thought (Damn nba.com delay).

    You've got to be kidding. Those two dunks were two of the top three. What does the delay have to do with anything? All three dunks are the most unique and vicious dunks of the year. Mason (Artistic and ferocious), T-Mac(vicious, poster, elevation, horseback), Smith(free throw line, 7 foot obstacle disregarded, power)

    Um no. I meant I didn't get to see clearly the whole thing the first time around.
