5 Greatest Plays in NBA history
Let’s breakdown the 5 most iconic moments in the history of the 4th best professional sport.
5. Kyrie Irving Game-Winner (2016 Finals)
A spot I had originally reserved for Lebron’s chase down block on Iguodala, I decided to not count that play since Goaltending likely should’ve been called. Congrats to Kyrie Irving for carrying HIS Cleveland Cavaliers to an NBA championship.
4. Ray Allen Corner-3 (Game 6 2013 Finals)

Another iconic Finals moment belongs to the greatest shooter of all time. Ray “Chris Kyle” Allen sniped a corner 3 after gaining the offensive rebound off teammate Lebron James’ putrid shot attempt. The shot forced overtime in which the Heat were victorious, leading to a game 7 Miami would go on to win.
3.Mario Hezonja enters the game for Hassan Whiteside (19–20 POR-GS)
In what will go down as one of the sharpest coaching moves in the history of the association, Terry Stots called on Mario “European Jesus” Hezonja to resurrect the Blazers from a 12 point deficit with just 3 minutes to play.
2. Mario Hezonja makes 27-foot three point jumper (Damian Lillard assists) (19–20 POR-GS)
In one of those moments where you can look back in 30 years and remember exactly where you were, Hezonja knocks down a vital 3-point shot to cut the lead to 9 with a minute to play.
- Mario Hezonja makes 24-foot three point jumper (CJ McCollum assists) (19–20 POR-GS)
This moment solidified Hezonja as the Greatest Of All Time commonly written in short form as the GOAT. With ice in his veins, Euorpean Jesus calmly knocked down a late 3 to cut the Warriors lead to to just 6 points with 1:05 to play. Truly incredible.
