It's amazing isn't it? Dude is now almost an 80% free throw shooter, crazy how much you can improve when you dedicate your time and energy to one thing.
All these people surprised about 140 points. THIS WAS THE FUCKING PHOENIX SUNS. Back then their offense was so damn good. Anyone who watches the sport for at least 8 years should know that. The Suns offense back then was... wow. I think they averaged like 120 a game anyway that year
***** lol less than two minutes, about to end in the fourth, down by 22....... no duh lmao........ the end of laker games this past season were exactly the same lmao
Katherine Pino yea exactly. To be exact down 25 with 43.7 seconds left. The arena started clearing out 10 minutes before this clip, guaranteed there was a crowd twice that size. But a few people commenting on this can't put that together and just want to hate.
+Justin Taslak nah bro I've been going to clipper games for years. It was pretty much that empty in the years before Blake haha. It's all good though. The crowds are much better now.
@BlackSabotage100 this is the 2nd game of a 3 game streak which the '09 PHX scored 140+ points in a games; couple games later PHX scored 154 in a game at Golden State
damn dude you read my mind. i thought shaun was sooo sick, and he's makin a comeback for sure.. he's dunking again (which is huge after that kinda injury).
I felt compelled to look at Deandre Jordan's FT percentage after watching this video. 420/1000, 42% for his career. I believe that would make him the second worst FT shooter (min. 1000 shots), just slightly better than Ben Wallace at 41.4%.
***** Yes:D Well, because of their great defence their FT's are actually worth like 80%:D When a player is only bad at free throws (50% is still not that bad when you really think about it) and excels in every other category like Wilt and is awesome in scoring, rebounding and blocking, like Shaq, then you don't focuse on what they do badly when you talk about them. OK, so they are 50% FT shooters, but they own the court. Another thing, when you shoot 20 FTs and make 10 it's still 10 points on 10 possesions. Still better than making 4 out of 4 and shooting 40% from the field:) Let's face it, Shaq and Wilt wouldn't be taking as many FTs, if they were good at them. These guys also win more ball possesions than they lose with their rebounding alone. Wilt especially always made up for his misses with rebounds alone. When you count in blocks and intimidating defence it's all great at the end to have a player like this. I don't even know if Shaq or Wilt even missed real clutch free throws. Wilt who sucked at FTs was kind of known to make them when it was really important, like make or die FTs:D
You can be a Hall of Fame-caliber player despite being a bad FT shooter, but let's not kid ourselves. Shooting 50% from the line is absolutely terrible. High school teams collectively don't shoot that badly. If Shaq shot at league average from the FT line, he'd be the greatest player in the history of the game by any measure of modern day analytics.
.-. im still thinking about the suns getting 140 points in the first quarter. they used to be freaking beasts offensively not too long ago. very fun team to watch
Good ol' Suns ... when they were playing real fast pace offense with a couple of great players (Nash, Stoudemire, Shaq still good) ... 137 points just like that. Most teams today don't even score that much in an OT game lol
man he shouldve been drafted in the first round. all those people stupid for not drafting him for a big man. he is a solid PF dash Center. he can play defense and dunk.

The commentator's delightful chuckle made this even funnier
Sam Spade yea and Shaqs laughter as well
I thought it was a bit much.
Legend says that's the last free throw he ever hit
Do u mean the Legend27?
It's amazing isn't it? Dude is now almost an 80% free throw shooter, crazy how much you can improve when you dedicate your time and energy to one thing.
Adrian Yap wow old times when that was a meme

Parmpreet Gill Yep
So is SUNS this year! :D
Watching basketball now in 2023. 140 points is about average nowadays!
140 points??? Great defense by the clips in this one
lol
Usually it's the clips scoring 140 pnts
TBullets You must be new to the NBA
TBullets Yeah, if you didn't watch basketball or the Suns in the mid to late 2000's
They are playing the suns . Mike D'antoni was the coach . His whole philosophy was about offense ,not so much about defense .
btw back then jordan had a pretty good shooting form
How the hell did the suns get 140 and it's only the fourth quarter? It's not even overtime.
There was a time when the clippers were that bad, and the suns offense was amazing
Oh really wow. But the Clippers got a lot better. Wish Shaq was still in the NBA. :(
CAN YOU DIG IT?!
LOL
*cough* steve nash
lmao that free throw at the end was such a hard brick. sounded like it was going to break the rim
Wow, how do you score 115 points and lose a game?
Well, when you have to face shaq and amare as opponents I guess
When the other team scores more lol
And a younger, spryer Steve Nash.
This comment didn’t age well w/ today’s NBA
@@Channel-bj1nz which is trash btw
By the laughter of the Clippers announcers and DeAndre's impersonation, you'd think The Clippers were up 140-115. 😂
Look at that score tho.. 140pts
hAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHHASBAHSJAHSJABSBJASBJADHDSV FHVSDHDSHsn dsmd snd s
dn sdjs :0
back when the suns avg. 118 ppg damn!
Lol dat arena is more empty than Lakers worst seasons
*****
lol less than two minutes, about to end in the fourth, down by 22....... no duh lmao........ the end of laker games this past season were exactly the same lmao

the old phoenix days, good times.
DeAndre is the man
Gotta Love DeAndre. Monster dunker too.
DeAndre Jordan is a beast!
So they have a camera on shaq the whole game?
The suns had the best offense that year.
Gotta love DJ
So many points
DJ is funny like hell!
Smh back when Deandre Jordan could singlehandely take a team to the finals and win.
um what?
Herrera Feenatics Yes, that is why they had a losing season till about 2011-2012.
William Jordan I could've swore they won back to back finals in the 90s with deandre
Faze Eugene …
Herrera Feenatics W
He cant be imitating Shaq, he actually made it
Because even if you're losing you should still have fun doing what you do.
priceless reaction by shaq
dang thats a high scoring game.
@BlackSabotage100 this is the 2nd game of a 3 game streak which the '09 PHX scored 140+ points in a games; couple games later PHX scored 154 in a game at Golden State
Wow that is a high scoring game
That is a CLASSIC Laugh!!!!!
Gig'em, DJ!
he had some huge games last year when he played
Look how many people are in the stands. And when people tell me they are a die hard clippers fan, this is why i do not believe them.
This was before Chris Paul came along and when the clips were the worst team in the league
well the game is over you dumb fuck ill have left to
There was 40 seconds left in the game idiot.
Shaq's reaction is priceless
when shaq smile it make me smile lol
Nice to hear Ralph yukking it up.
Makes a free throw: checks hand
Misses a free throw: checks hand
Nice form
DeAndre Jordan players you like best
デアンドレジョーダンが一番好きです
oh man..that was a good one!
Young DJ
DeAndre Jordan has the best facial expressions
wow, look at the stands compared to today
not only the hand, he's doing the forehead rubbing and chest taps as well
DeAndre u are so funny baby.. It really got Shaq smiling Lol..
damn dude you read my mind.
i thought shaun was sooo sick, and he's makin a comeback for sure.. he's dunking again (which is huge after that kinda injury).
That was actually a good looking free throw. This was back when he was still being forced into playing garbage time.
I felt compelled to look at Deandre Jordan's FT percentage after watching this video.
420/1000, 42% for his career. I believe that would make him the second worst FT shooter (min. 1000 shots), just slightly better than Ben Wallace at 41.4%.
for the two years he has been in the nba andre drummond averages like 37% on free throws
Ty Lei At least the record will stay in Detroit if Drummond maintains this pace.
Doesn't matter:) His FG% and rebounds more than make up for his free throw misses.
***** Yes:D Well, because of their great defence their FT's are actually worth like 80%:D When a player is only bad at free throws (50% is still not that bad when you really think about it) and excels in every other category like Wilt and is awesome in scoring, rebounding and blocking, like Shaq, then you don't focuse on what they do badly when you talk about them.

It's nice to see that the Clippers can still have fun while down by 20
Damn I remember the Suns had a badass offense those days. If there's one thing D'antoni could coach it was offense.
ChicagoFan32 He wasn't the coach during this game though.
+xerxes106 Still his style of basketball.
i love that shaq is right there
The fans sitting in those seats are true Clipper fans.
he says thats lovely
Holy shit, 140? Nice D Clips!
I searched the hell out of this just now 😂
That suns team was lit
That Mike D' Antoni offense relies on running the ball 100% of the game so scoring so much usually results in allowing 100 ppg.
Damn he bulked up big time
Yep missing that second one too just like good ol 50% shaq.
the bad old days
DJ is a pretty cool guy
the score is what made me laugh
DAMN! 140 points
@ratmtbola I know right... i miss these rosters
Lol Deandre Jordan is funny as hell
even at the begining when he wipe off his sweat on his eyebrows is a imitation of shaq.
@VoorkJTV yea i know that, but even today the clippers aren't gonna get my respect until they can prove they can make the playoffs and advance
damn the score is high!
He didn't mimic Shaq. He made a free throw.
@Darthkeyblader13 dude no, it was a stretch the suns went on that season, they scored 140+ points like 5 games in a row
shaq is a good sport!
that old guy's laugh lol
.-. im still thinking about the suns getting 140 points in the first quarter. they used to be freaking beasts offensively not too long ago. very fun team to watch
ItzRushHour first quarter? It's the 4th with like a minute left
Lol he was like" Did I just make that?? I should get a reward".
lol jordan is so good now
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA... ohhhh boy.
"hahaha... oh boy"
wow look at the score
damn look at the score
the funniest thing here is the score
can't help smiling after Shaq starts smiling with Amar'e
140?! God damn!
He tried to do it again at the end but they shaked his hand
Good ol' Suns ... when they were playing real fast pace offense with a couple of great players (Nash, Stoudemire, Shaq still good) ... 137 points just like that. Most teams today don't even score that much in an OT game lol
Good ol Suns who didn't play a lick of D
LOL @ THE SCORE
Smooth Wyman Tisdale release!.......
great d in this game
the score is funny.
@purplekiller13 hell yea this year yeaaa!
i though he was going to miss or airball the freethrow due to the title
137? Holy shit I should have saw this game.
its because he want to get sweat on his fingertips so he can feel the texture of the ball...a lot of people do that
Is there a reason Triple Berry Danish Cheesecake is in the suggested videos?
"That's lovely" @ 0:35
Bro shaqs laugh is difficult not to laugh at
fooling around down 25
"CAN YOU DIG IT!!!!"
Those are true clips fans lol
LOOOOOOOOOL
Look how empty the stands were.
man he shouldve been drafted in the first round. all those people stupid for not drafting him for a big man. he is a solid PF dash Center. he can play defense and dunk.
That's the old school Suns 140 in 4th Q.
