Most unstopable Signature Moves in NBA History

[DaHeezy]

I personally think Reggie Lewis had a better fadeaway than Jordan

But the question is which is THE most unstoppable shot in history. The thread should end at Kareem's sky hook.

[Kobe24Clutch]

1) Sky Hook - Kareem Abdul-Jabbar

2) Fade-away Jumper - Michael Jordan

3) Dream Shake - Hakeem Olajuwon

4) Dipper Finger Roll - Wilt Chamberlain

5) 1 Foot Fall-away - Dirk Nowitzki

6) Step-Back leaner - Larry Bird

7) Turnaround Jumper - Oscar Robertson

8) Ice Finger Roll - George Gervin

9) Black Tornado - Shaquille O'Neal

10) ???????????????????

Thoughts, I've never really put much thought into this myself.

The Jordan nut hugging reaching an all time high.

The Jordan nut hugging reaching an all time high.

why would your idol spend his entire career trying to copy it then?

Just because he happens to be my favorite player that means he's my idol?

[no pun intended]

Durant gets the whistle and shoot free throws. The ref's call is unstoppable because you can't complain. Durant's free throws are unstoppable because he makes them at a high rate and it is illegal to contest it.

If Jordan's fadeaway was better then Kobe's, it's not by much, and I'd say Kobe's was better. Either way, I wouldn't say Jordan's fadeaway is second most unstoppable, unless you just mean unblockable, lol. If you mean unstoppable as in most likely to go in, then it's not that terribly high, definitely lower then Dirk's crazy fadeaway.

Just out of curiosity how would Kobe's fadeaway be better than Jordans?

Like whats the criterium for this opinion? Bryant clearly based his fadeaway and entire move set in the post off Jordan's arsenal.

I'm pretty sure Kobe didn't know who Jordan was until this year. Thus, your logic becomes invalidated.

So because Kobe copied Jordan it's automatically worse?

No, I'm not saying it's worse. And I'm not saying Jordan's is better. I'm just asking how YOU even come to the conclusion Kobe's was better. They are the same exact move. Executed exactly the same.

LeBron's 4 step layup

Other nice shots.

Tony Parker's Floater.
Duncan's bank shot.
Nash's under the basket and go around fadeaway.
Kobe's spin and split trap at the baseline fadeaway.
Pierce's top of the key set 3 ptr.
Yao's set turnaround jumper from baseline.

Because I think Kobe's better at it, lol. As in he's more likely to make the shot, especially at longer ranges.

And that would be absolutely ridiculous. Stupid, actually. You don't do post up fadeaways from three point land. The furtherst you go is elbow extended on that move. It's not even objective, you just want to say Kobe was better at it. He's not. They execute the move the exact same way. And I'm actually more inclined to say Jordan scored more on the move, and especially in the late 90's worked out of the post much more than Kobe. So he usually was more successful at it. But in terms of the mechanics of the move, not the results ... they are the exact same.

Lol, okay. I really don't want to say Kobe is better, but he is. And I'm not just talking about post up fadeaway, but his fadeaway in general.
