Somebody better sign him. If the Mavericks didn't, somebody was going to. Oh, wait a minute. Polo Depot on skates. CJ open for three and he knocks it down. When you fall like that, you usually get put on one of the videos. High in the sky. Oh, CJ. Based assassin knocked down a triple. What a show by the Spaniard here tonight. Here come the Celtics. Kyrie Irving behind the back and then, and he hits it. That's a highlight right there. I mean, still one of the meanest handles in the league. Oh, no. Oh, Vincenzo. Tied up. Hornswoggled, befuddled. CJ McConnell a season high with 32 and the Blazers lead it. Hollis Jefferson with the crossover. Brogdon fell down and Hollis Jefferson with a nice highlight. And Craig went to Georgia too, didn't he? That's right. He did go to Georgia, boy. Oh, my goodness. He got him down and then he went up. Is that the second time we've seen that from JR tonight? Robinson and on a switch by Humphreys. Oh, puts a move on Humphreys and scores. What a play by Nate Robinson. You know, teams rely a lot on their defense shots. How about that? Trey goes between his legs, then a wraparound bounce for the dunk. And watch Brown on this play. Oh, where is he? Oh, no, he hasn't gone anywhere yet. He's at the rim. There's Dedman throwing one down. The guy is just a tremendous basketball player. Bryant gets some ooze from the Laker fans on his crossover. Kobe Bryant with 10 points.

And the guys wearing the purple uniforms. 0-4 in the first quarter, pretty spin and set up. Very nice. I don't know how he was able to see Winslow on the cart, but that was pretty. Well, they jumped out of their seats on that one. Glenn Rice trying to keep up with Kyrie Irving, but I'm not sure anybody could at that point. Ashbrook is on the bench right now. With a dance. That move is illegal in most every state except in Texas. Wow. Back up by double digits. Kyrie being on the back. Which way did he go, says Pergione. Oh, he lost him. He lost Kyrie Irving and he made him pay for three. Dance on him, young fella. Dance on him in the cube. On Ed Davis. Can you say top ten? On that station. Jackson with it. Jackson. Crossover.

Oh, boy, he puts Brooks down and scores. Wow, he dropped him. I'm telling you, he just dropped in Brooks. Started zero four shooting here in the period since they've been six of seven. Moscow with the left hand. Well, listen, we've seen broken ankle moves. That's a broken ankle assist right there. But he'll have such up and down stretches. Invisible and then dominant as we mentioned. This guy is off the charts. Derek Rose again. Oh, my goodness. A little inside out. Attack the rim. Use that rim as protection against the defender. It's a beautiful play by Simmons, getting Bellinelli a wide open shot. Oh, my. Wow. Oh, no. It's moving right in the back. Head distance. Oh, what a beautiful move to free himself. I guess Wes Matthews said, see you later. Back to middle. Oh, my goodness. What a move. It's a sledgehammer. What a play. Los Angeles shooting six of 16 here in the first quarter. Durant showing Randle every move he's got and then some. Wow. Man. You talk about slicing and dicing and how low he got. There was a lot of action on that play. Johnson on the court. Crossover from the crowd and it gets the Mets bench off their seats. Listen, Joe Johnson is a fantastic hiker. One on one guy. This place goes nuts when Jamal Crawford goes into his fancy dribble mode and he does again to take the lead up to 20. He's able to create space for that jumper, the way he shakes and hesitations. Pacers at Hawkins. Blazers at Mets. Moscow. And we got an ankle breaker out there called an ambulance. A follow high in the ballgame with nine. Uh-oh. Crossover. Fires. Fills it. Uh-oh. He almost broke a leg there. It's a 7-0 New York run. Three points in their opening. He's got six here. What a move by Durant. And he lets the big dog eat Collison with the finish. There's Kyrie Irving. Boy, he is so smooth at handling the ball. Here goes Kyrie Irving through the lane. Oh, I got to get my stuff on. If we were at Rucker Park, they'd be like, It would have been running all over the floor. Kyrie knew it, though. Like, all right, if he's going to fall down, I got to make this live. Uniform at this point to play a legend. Oh, my goodness. Pick him up. Somebody pick him up. Clean up on out three. A dazzling display as he goes to the rack. Oh, Lavert, busting ankles. Bottom, Paris Lavert with a major highlight. You think you can come off the bench with J.R. Smith and Ty Lawson. You think you have the ability to change the game. Look at this move by Steph Curry. How fun is he? But Steph Curry, like, whoop. No. Chris Anderson goes flying through the air, the bird man. Irving with the ball, left side of the circle. Fakes, fakes, dribbles on. Curry spins on. Curry, good fake, goes to the baseline, shoots a jumper. It's up and good. Tim, you don't stop that move. Nope. Nobody does. Oh, that's a sweet move from Kyrie Irving. And, Mike, you know, you said his teammates love him for loose balls. Not really. That's what they love about him. Johnson in a mismatch with Nurkic. Johnson just put Nurkic on his backside. Payne's trying to harass him. The finish, beautiful. That's Steph Curry with the shot. Razzle dazzle at its best. How do you normally say salt of the earth? Well, he's more than that. Oh, no, he didn't. Chris Paul, that is not right. ZB3, stop it. Stop it. For the ball in the hoop, he's just going to need some help. There's a good three-point shot for Jameer. I don't know if he broke Janero Pargo's ankles on that with the crossover, or Pargo just stumbled. But he went down. It's going to be a sign of him coming off that two-game losing streak. Oh, oh, oh, we can go home now. Come on, man. You know what I'm going to say. Did you see him pull the ball back away? That's nasty. How did he do it? Lillard boos as his crossover got McKinney to fall. Here's Curry again, crossing over behind the back. Now dribbles left. Curry sets a pass to Green, and he does it. Did you see the pass by Stephen Curry, folks, with his left hand off the dribble? He is just incredible. Here comes Harden in the open court. Harden behind the back, takes it to the middle. Oh, what a shot by James Harden. Oh, I couldn't describe this for you again. You just have to watch it. This is an MVP caliber move. They shoot 39 percent from three. Paul buries the jumper. A broken ankle. There is a broken ankle in the building, ladies and gentlemen. Scores on the behind the back. Flutter ball. He's got 25 tonight. Lawson and Felton both playing their college ball at the University of North Carolina. And nearly losing it was Westbrook. That says it all. Nearly lost his footing. Off balance, it spins in. Uh-oh. And a standing ovation. You don't want him to slow down. As the Warriors claw the ball. Momentum seems to be shifting just a bit here. Gives you a move with every part of his body. You look at his ball handling. And being able to finish with it now. Rose. Oh, what a move by Derrick Rose. That was a thing of beauty right there. I mean, he just froze Tyreek with that quick crossover and right to the rim. But it's really been thrilling to watch this happen ever since Chris got here. Where I come from, this is called the Shabbat Shalom. What? Boom! Shabbat Shalom! Off the glass. Wow. Make a move like that. You get the crowd on their feet. It has to fall. Oh, Chris Paul. It's got to go in, Smitty. You are the president of Smitty's Top Plays Under the Rim. Can that go as a nominee, Smitty? Yes, it can. I mean, he crossed over the entire gym. So Chris Paul's getting on the act now. And Philadelphia up by seven. Oh, a cross went behind the back. Splitting through. He split through two Philadelphia players behind the back with the dribble. And it goes through Thompson's legs. Look at that. It goes through Thompson's legs. This is game one. Western Conference Semifinals. As Curry does his magic. Can Steve Smith take note? Top Five Plays Under the Rim candidate right here. Washington erratic. Wade trying to get on the books. Boy, again, vintage Dwayne Wade there. Sending Galloway sprawling along the baseline. Watch Wade. Razzle dazzle between the legs. Galloway losing his balance. Wade just 3 of 10 from the field. That was nice. Lance just made one of his many, many crazy moves. He's close to another triple-double, my friend. Seven minute mark of the second quarter. Shot clock is down to three. Kyrie Irving doing it in on the defensive line. And Brogdon out to get three. Put that shot up and down. Oh, Kyrie masterful inside. Well, I was getting ready to say great defense, which it was by Malcolm Brogdon. How did Kyrie get out of that double team? So you don't know what Harden's going to do. Will he pull up and shoot the three? He did that right before the half. Or he could drive on you. MVP move. Out in Toyota Center loves it. Westbrook works the clock down. Now under seven. Russell. What a move to shed the defense. And he scores. My goodness. Breaking ankles. Murray and Harden. Hyde's licking his chops. He fell down. Bulls by six. Oh, my goodness. And he's got to hit the three on that one. Cross him up and sit him down. Put him to sleep. Two-two good. Kyrie Irving goes through the entire defense. One was trying to walk down the clippers here in the first half. On a 12-4 run. Curry inline shakes Paul out of his boots and hits a fallaway jump shot. Takes it out under the basket and suddenly goes two times behind his back. One-two. Paul goes down. Curry knocks down the jump shot. This guy is something special. Williams now. Return feed for Johnson. He looks at the clock. Johnson. Oh, fakes out, pierced, and hits. Splash for Joe Johnson. Wow, big time move for a 6'7 guy. How about getting it down and real low to the floor and going by Pierce, who's reaching again. Coming outside. It's crossed over Wes Johnson, and that might be the single greatest crossover in the history of the NBA. Allow me to have this dance. Down goes Johnson. Too much sauce. Curry splits the defense behind the back. Fires a three. Oh, he puts it in. What a spectacular move. That could be the greatest move I've ever seen. No, I'm being serious. Stephen Curry. Just a spectacular move here. Somehow holds on, fires up the three.
