LeBron Rates Dirk's Fadeaway As Second Most Unstoppable Shot In League History
May 29, 2011 3:44 PM EDT


Dirk Nowitzki's now famous fading jumper on one leg that helped the Mavs beat the Thunder impressed the Heat.

"That is something new. He has always made some awkward shots for a big guy, but that one-legged shot that is pretty much un-guardable," said Heat forward Udonis Haslem, who had success guarding Nowitzki in 2006 when the Heat beat the Mavericks to win the title.

"Probably the most unstoppable shot ever is the sky hook. I guess you put Dirk second," James said. "You have a seven-footer fading away off one leg. There is no one that can block that shot."

It is just good PR to say that.

a jk post : man there frethrow shot is unstoppable shot because if you do a guarding to free throw shot that is illegal to NBA basketball = unstoppable ok a no more jk post :

i think i agree

[chris2010]

you could probably make that argument. unless you count a shaq post-up dunk as a shot.

[Mr. Jabbar]

Lefraud is wise to place the sky hook as #1.

[STATUTORY]

Lebron is just hyping the shot so he has a ready made excuse when he gets torched by Dirk and gets extra credit if he stops Dirk sllightly.

good PR move

With the crab dribble shot being #1.

[Toni]

Pretty sure it goes;

1. Free Throw
2. Sky Hook
3. Dirk Fade

As most unstoppable shots

With the crab dribble shot being #1.

lol just about anyone that drives the lane does a crab dribble, its just that lebron is pretty much the biggest guy in the league with that kind of handles so its the most obvious on him.

you dont think ginobili or derrick rose crab dribble? i dun seen 'em do it.

[stephanieg]

you dont think ginobili or derrick rose crab dribble?

No...they travel. LeBron crab dribbles. This was settled in 2007.

[PHILA]

Right behind the "Dipper Dunk".

[inclinerator]

dunks shouldnt be count as unstoppable moves

[RoseCity07]

Most unblockable.

I think Rasheed Wallace's fade away jumper is up there. No one could stop that in his prime. It pissed me off he didn't use it every single time he got into the post.

Dirk's is very hard to stop. But he also abuses it which is great.

[Doctor K]

What about LeBron's fadeaway 3 pointer?

[andgar923]

Why the f*ck would Bron even say this sh*t?
