NBA's Best Shots: April Edition
by user David J. Cohen
These are the best "shots" of April in the NBA. I have ranked them by "best picture" in reverse order. Anyone with additional ideas feel free to comment.
10. Rafer Alston, April 12th against Minnesota
| Griffin: I’m finally gonna get a block!
Blount: Ain't no way he’s skippin his lou outta this
Alston (Skip to My Lou): (CHUCKLING) The net tickles. I got myself into one hell of a bind here. Can’t lay it in the hoop but I can sure as hell lay it in Griffin’s armpit.
Marv Albert: Alston jams it home! What a Spec-tacular move by Rafer Alston!

9. ZaZa Pachulia, April 15th against Milwaukee
| (When Pachulia gets on the break and no one is with him Ric Flair’s music/Space Odyssey theme starts playing in the arena)
NOTE: for those who do not know what this is, here’s a link to listen to it:
Flair Theme
It’ll become instantly obvious once you hear it.
ZaZa: I’m gonna do it! I’m reaching for it! I’m gonna be the first European basketball player to dunk a basketball!
Buck with Headband: he’s not trying to…oh boy.
Buck near the 3-point arc: What’s he doing?
ZaZa: (SUDDEN REALIZATION) Wait a minute. I’m on the way down.

8. Kobe, April 6th against Denver
| Kobe: I got this one. Man, this rim sure looks tasty.
Camby: For the love of God, NOOOOOOOO!
|
. Jamal Crawford, April 7th against Indiana
| Crawford: Why does Larry Brown always yell at me! Why doesn’t Starbury wanna hang out with me? Why am I about to miss this lay-up? Why do we always have to lose? WHYYYYYYY!
Pacer (TO HIMSELF) I was gonna swat it away but now I feel like I’d be taking candy from a baby. All these guys do is whine. When is this game gonna end . . .

6. Referee “On the court I’m a” Dick Bavetta, April 17th in Toronto
| Raptor: There just in warm-ups and this crock’s already looking to T someone up. I’ll show him. (Grabs Dick)
Bavetta: AAAAAAAAHHH! It’s Godzilla and he’s really ticked off! He’s turned red. (IN HIS HEAD: kinda of like Rasheed Wallace whenever I…)
Raptor: Gotcha! Oh look, a camera! Say cheese!
Bavetta: I’m hugging someone! Nooooooooooooooo!
