1996-1997 NBA Plays of the Year.

[Johnny32]

i've seen better "highlights" on SC in today's nba on a random night in january.

[Johnny32]

ftr, pretty sure it's plays of the week not year if memory serves but i'm quoting the uploader so whatever. anyway, point stands...i don't pretend to miss duh 90s because of 'muh nostalgia' like so many others.

[Reggie43]

That was actually pretty good thanks for sharing

[Johnny32]

"pretty good" if you haven't watched an nba/wnba/college/aau game in 30 yrs maybe.

oh and you're welcome.

[Reggie43]

What play would you consider exciting? A breakaway tomahawk dunk?

[Kblaze8855]

Yea that’s plays of the week. Which is odd because number 8 has been talked about for 25 years. I just saw it on tik tok last week.

Lol bruh the #2 play of the year/week was a pedestrian free throw line alley. I mean I've seen better plays watching my son's 500 population town local high school basketball team.

[Kblaze8855]

That league had Kemp, Iverson, Jordan, Shaq, Grant Hill, Penny, and so on. You think whatever some producer chose as the second play of the week means there weren’t spectacular things being done?

People were getting the Rock Bottom and dunked on within 30 seconds of game time

The 90s undeniably had more exciting plays than today's 3pt contest. Particularly the dunkers... guys actually attacked the rim hard and were creative... today they mostly flop for calls. A Shawn Kemp highlight tape alone from back then was more inspiring than anything I see today.

is the 100th best play of the 2023 season better than eddie's "still being talked about 25 yrs later" dunk from duh 90s?



debatable.

[HylianNightmare]

1 and 9 were kinda weak but the rest were pretty filthy

Uhh, no it's not.

[Johnny32]

Uhh, no it's not.

it's embarrassing watching lil mikey fangirls desperately cling to shit like a ft line dunk. clearly oblivious to the fact that half the league could do it if they wanted to but it hasn't been cool since a white guy did that shit 20 yrs ago.

Half the league could do it then. Toni Kukoc was never considered that athletic…
