NBA 60 Greatest Playoff Moments

[ISO]

The list was compiled in 2006 for the NBA's 60th Anniversary. It was voted on by a mix of sportswriters and former players.

Which moments would you add? Which moments got snubbed? Which ones would you remove?

These is definitely in

 

[CP3.]

KD's dagger 3 in Cleveland over LeBron

 

[Flex Grossman]

Kyrie game 7 and Ray Allen game 6

 

[El Guapo]

LeBron block (I guess you can tie this with the Kyrie shot and the 3-1 comeback as one whole moment)
Kawhi shot vs. Philly
Ray Allen shot
Lillard OKC goodbye shot
Klay Game 6 vs OKC
LeBron Game 6 vs Celtics
I feel one of Dirk’s moments in his 2011 run should be in there too.

 

[Professor Emeritus]

LeBron's 25 straight against the Pistons
Dame's three against the Rockets
Dame's three against the Thunder
Kawhi's game-winner against the Sixers
Ray's three against the Spurs
CP3's Game 7 game-winner against the Spurs
The entire last 2 minutes of Cavs-Warriors 2016
LeBron's 45-15-5 game against the Celtics
Mavs' Game 2 comeback against the Heat

Those are the ones that probably have to be in-in, no questions asked. Then some borderline ones would be:

Pierce (42) and LeBron (45) Game 7 duel
Brandon Roy's comeback game against the Mavs
Draymond getting ejected for punching too many people in the nuts

KD's dagger 3 in Cleveland over LeBron

You're putting a shot where the team already is ahead in the game and is looking to go up 3-0 in the series as one of the greatest playoff moments ever?

That probably doesn't make the top-60 since 2006.

[Illuminatos]

The top 25 only had 2 moments from the 2000s.
We were definitely blessed in the 2010s. So many classic moments that you can put in the top 10.

 

[Professor Emeritus]

I'm removing:

The Toney game
The Starks dunk
Elliot's shot
Worthy's triple-double
King's steal
Warriors upset Bullets
Wilt's 1972 game
Mikan's game
Bird's triple double
Bernard King's big game
Walton's Finals MVP
Kareem's big win in 1985


I only added 11 moments and took out 12, so go ahead and leave in whichever one of those you don't want to pull.

 

[Trojan 24]

KD's dagger 3 in Cleveland over LeBron

Top 3 moment of the decade

Behind Byries 3 and GOATBE's 60

 

[Trojan 24]

I'd also add KD's game 3 in 2018, best Finals game of the past 20 years. And before you start, please watch the second half of that game before you @ me

 

[Trojan 24]

They should include the Bron bank shot against Toronto just off being so fitting for that Trash Brothers lead team

The list got made in 2006 so it could have been recency bias.

 

[Conscious Pilot]

This one will never get it’s just due... fukk man it really changed the game.. the crowd went silent and really realized at that moment, that 73-9 may not have a ring with it.

Breh, the Cavs had the lead already, then immediately after that shot the Warriors outscored the Cavs 17-10 to finish the quarter and took back the lead.

Da hell you mean "changed the game"?

LBJ's 6 straight points when the Warriors had taken a 4-point lead with 5 minutes left were far more crucial. Klay hit a layup on the next play and then no one scored again until the final minute.
