    Kareem's sky hook happened in slow motion yet all you could do is watch it as you knew it was going in.

    That sky hook looks devastating, unguarded. As well as Shaq in his prime. They probably have the edge, since they work closer to the rim.

    But for a perimeter player I would have to go with Jordan's fade away. There was nothing anyone could do about it.

    Probably Kareem's hook and then second Kobe's fadeaway just because its so disheartening. When Kobe starts hitting those insane shots that no one else ever makes (mostly because they aren't stupid enough to try) it just can't be fun to guard him.

    It's not really a devastating move physically but some of the shots Kobe hits can be devastating to a team's psyche, so he's gotta up there with shaqs elbow, iversons cross and of course the sky hook of kareem

    All-time give me Kareem's skyhook.


    Right now... Dirk's turnaround, elbow jumper is pretty much unstoppable.

    Iverson's crossover?
    MJ's fadeaway?
    Kareem's skyhook?
    Magic's no look passes?
    Shaq's drop step?
    Others?
