I've watched lob city highlights for years and seen that dunk a hundred times but never saw that man run away like that lmaoooo thanks for pointing it out
4:00 Aesthetically, this has to be the most graceful dunk of all time. No floundering at all. Not on the jump or the way down. Took a bad pass and drained it so perfectly, the ball hit the ground before Vince did. He didn't go over anyone but we all know Vince could go over anyone in the NBA, we don't need to see that. I think it's the best alley oop of all time, one of the best dunks of all time.
there’s some article where they interviewed a lot of players about his career, and the reason VC doesn’t celebrate is because his teammates would purposefully throw him bad passes to see what he could do with them during practice but this one made it into a game. totally agreed though best oop of all time
It’s just me but i’ve always dubbed this dunk “The city of Angels” dunk because Vince turned into an Angel with wings in order to complete this play as gracefully as he did
The one with jr on the knicks doing the reverse is actually very underrated just for the pure fact that the pass was so low it didn’t seem to be meant for a alley and jr had to have such vertical and extension for that to be the play it was 🔥
The Carter vs Clippers oop still gives me goosebumps. The pass distance, the insane one handed catch(the slow motion clip showing just how perfectly he gets it), the height, the majestic pose, the absolute POWER. That ball flew to the top of the arena after being slammed through the hoop.
That Carter alley oop with the Raptors (4:13) is so beautiful. It might not have been the best dunk but he looks majestic floating in the air like it is no effort.
He earned the fuck out of that championship and that play was legendary. You don't have to like the bucks to appreciate his story, he got it out the mud his whole career and that play was the icing on the cake, and the staredown he was out for blood
Deandre Jordan’s Alley Oop Poster on Brandon Knight has forever been Immortalized 🤣. . One of the best if not the best Alley Oop Posters in NBA History
the Gerald Green windmill is better to me. He's half a foot shorter and got a foot higher, he could've kissed the rim. Yes, it was nasty of DeAndre, but Brandon Knight is a foot shorter and 100 lbs lighter. The Tom Chambers dunk over Mark Jackson 25 years earlier is just as crazy.
The Lebron and Giannis' two jumps over people are to be the expected answer. But that Green alley oop above the rim springboarded dunk has always been the best thing as a lob since I saw it on video.
The commentators are the best part about these highlights to me! Some of these reactions are legendary! I love the reaction to the Giannis dunk at 6:42 - Gus Johnson goes nuts and the other commentator simply says "oo!"
In the literal sense lol That's what he did in my favourite GP-Kemp lob ever, the one vs Golden State in the 1992 Playoffs. And he also exactly slid over because of the defender's push under him.
There's a lot of great alley-oops here but I'm not sure I'll ever see a more beautiful dunk than the windmill by Green at 6:15. That thing is a piece of art.
Brandon Knight was always at the unfortunate end of some notable highlights in NBA history... This one, the Kyrie crossover at the rookie-sophomore game, and the missed lay-up game-winner when he's with the Bucks lmao
Man it’s crazy how these players can understand the exact moment to jump and catch the ball especially with one hand the momentum they have in these games are phenomenal
The VC one about halfway through has long been my fav alley oop and I'm not entirely sure why. Something about the leg kick and rotation of his torso is just artistic af
We all knew how this video was gonna end. Although I will say the dunk by Lebron on Jason Terry is one of the most savage things to have ever happened to a player in the sports history.
Ngl, I'm missing the jump over John Lucas. ruclips.net/video/FQ4GA3GB3Wk/видео.html Fun fact, Lucas was an assistant coach for Lakers during the 2021-22 season.
So many components to that Jordan dunk @ the end is pure theatre, being a purist his own reaction to the dunk would not have been out of place, nice montage 👍
You can show me all the JR Smith highlights in the world but I’ll always only see him as the dude who forgot the score in the finals with 2 seconds left in the 4th quarter
3:15 goddamn I forgot Sean Kemp played for the Magic. He was so out of shape it blew people’s minds, you can see he had no joy in the game by then. His ascent and prime tho were insane, think Garnet mixed with Giannis and throw in some Ja hype every time he elevated. He was a beast and I miss those Sonics.
I love these plays for the hype and potential momentum changing energy these plays can give a team. The feeling that the players get and the fans get, no dunk contest can truly replicate. For if these same plays happened in a dunk contest, we all would be less than thrilled for some of these are basic alley-oops. Some in here could be good dunks in a contest, but the momentum gained from these plays in a real game make any dunk contest pale in comparison.
Jason Richardson's dunks seems so effortless. I read back then he used to do 1000 jump rope reps a day. I tried that when I was younger and my jump did improve by a lot, I even surprised myself how high I can jump

Can't get enough of it I swear
Bro, was literally looking at the top of the rim.
Best in game ally pwriod
Man I remember watching the game as a teenager and was in shock as how to tf someone could even jump that high
I love seeing the other players react to it lol, they be trying to hold back

Giannis straight jumping over a guy is the definition of insane.
Not as dope as Vince Carter in Olympics.
@@newagain9964 Vince did it over much taller guy but Giannis did it on alley oop play so both plays are amazing in their own way

“The lob”. Is that the reason why Clippers are call the Lob City?

Went looking for this comment the moment I saw it happen. Camera should've went Sepia filter just for the moment haha.
He literally just falls over dead. lol.
That was homicide.
This selection of dunks is excellent. This is one of my favorite NBA highlight reels I've ever seen. Great work.
@james Harden there is 2..
But the title is little bit misleading
4:02 Vince threw that down so hard that ball bounced into the stratosphere
The Gerald Green alley is immortally great
You know its good when the opposing team players get up outta their seats and then have to quickly sit back down
Which one?

I cant believe he pulled that off. Makes it way more impressive.

There's just something special about the way Vince Carter dunks. Haven't seen it in any other player
Miles Bridges comes to mind.
It's just so violent
So smooth but with so much power
His bounce, power and grace. Just pure art
Nice looking Zia bro
I love how Middleton just stands there dumbfounded by Giannis literally jumping over a dude.
Yeah, just holds his hands open palms up dumbfounded like, did I just see what my eyes said I saw

Jrue's steal on Booker then alley to Giannis is already one of the greatest plays in NBA finals history.
true... esp since giannis jumps over the defender hahaha.

What’s even crazier to me is that his block on Ayton’s alley oop attempt was the previous game, so he had 2 unreal plays in back to back games.
6:15 you know its good when the opposing bench gets up
5:50 That has to be one of the greatest sequences ever
I also love how the rim sounds when Lebron hits it. It’s like the sound silenced everyone.

The dunk at 3:05 was low key a flagrant- at least in nowadays reffing. That dude j ate it up
def, thats how people get seriously hurt and their careers ended
Yeah dirty play smh
shawn kemp moment
yeah he could have terribly hurt if he hadn't dunked
That's exactly what happened to Giannis in the finals last year.
3:07 That bounce pass was the greatest play in this entire reel. Amazing.
Mario Hezonja has a similar play with Aaron Gordon shame it's not included in here...
That giannis staredown at the camera cracks me up for some reason 😂

Vince Carter’s one hand dunk definitely should’ve been higher
I was gonna say!
Absolutely 💯
Not false.
Definitely one of the best alley oops dunks ever.
The commentators are the best part about these highlights to me! Some of these reactions are legendary! I love the reaction to the Giannis dunk at 6:42 - Gus Johnson goes nuts and the other commentator simply says "oo!"
Shawn Kemp's "I used to do that look" is priceless. Also, Jason Terry's T.O.D. is 5:56
In the literal sense lol
That's what he did in my favourite GP-Kemp lob ever, the one vs Golden State in the 1992 Playoffs.
And he also exactly slid over because of the defender's push under him.
Dawg Shawn Kemp though🤣🤣🤣🤣
Speaking of Shawn, how is it even possible he didn't a single appearance in this video?
Shawn Kemp was very talented
Your NBA highlight reels are probably my favorite ones on RUclips. The progression of craziness is really good throughout. Thank you for your work!

Gerald Green on the Nets might be the greatest lob ever. The wind up, the head above the rim, the splash of the net. Beautiful.
1:08. AND TO THIS DAY.
I have never seen this play duplicated.
Aged well

Can’t believe it’s been almost a decade and people still consider the deandre Jordan dunk on knight the best alley oop of all time
It's been decades since Dr. J's rock the baby dunk and it's still the best in-game dunk ever recorded. Some things just can't be easily surpassed.
That alley oop will forever be nasty. All was needed was to put some white roses on Knight's chest and for the eulogy to be read 🤣🤣🤣.
Gordon caught that pass flying backwards at the rim from so far out. Idk how someone can do some shit like that. Absolutely insane.
That totally got my heart racing! I don't care if you have no interest in basketball... This was truly astonishing!
Just that DeAndre Jordan dunk on Brandon Knight is still just 👌👌👌
I still fall every time I watch that deandre Jordan dunk. Took Brandon Knights soul and he was never seen again
