    Yep, this Brad Miller game and JLin stuff is nothing. That Stockton shot was a thousand times worse. One of the things that made it so bad is that everyone knew as soon as he caught the ball that was going in. It was just a great pass in rhythm, easy shot. As soon as he caught you knew that was it.

    A couple other plays I remember. The Boozer dunks on Yao game 7 at home. Those were demoralizing. Also, the no call foul on the Kenny Smith three against the Sonics in Seattle, game 7. That sucked. When Ralph Sampson fell in the Garden, had a bad feeling about that one.

    The end of this always was a sore spot for me. Ainge is lucky he did that at a time where retaliation would have hurt the team:

    Old hakeem trying to respond to a karl malone monster dunk but jumping too far from the rim and getting rejected by the rim.

    Othella harrington dunking it too hard and the ball goes through the rim, off his back and then back through the rim again for a no basket.

    Too many to choose from. The t-mac one really wasnt that bad

    That T-Mac play OP posted is just a missed layup. Plus T-Mac got a steal. Just imagine he didn't get that steal. It's not that bad lol

    Yes! You found it for me! Derrick Chievious' free throw face @0:18!

    I do remember the 2 half court shots as a kid.

    Terrible logic. An airball happens more frequently, in general, with even the best players.

    The first thing that came to mind for me was that time where Steve Francis dribbled the air out of the ball for 23 seconds and then threw up an off balance 30 footer with a hand in his face. And by "that time" I mean the dozen or more times he did that.

    ( fast forward towards the last minute)

    It wasn't all of his fault, but this one still hurts. Yao Ming could not get a damn defensive rebound in that final 2 minutes. If we would have beaten the Jazz that series, we would have gone to the finals.
