SMART vs DUMB Moments in NBA

**SPEAKER_1** (0:00)
The NBA has some of the smartest plays you'll ever see, but it also has some of the dumbest. These are smart vs. dumb NBA moments. And first, we got the time Tyrese Halliburton got Mrs. Siss in the smartest way possible.

**SPEAKER_2** (0:15)
Look at that, Halliburton.

**SPEAKER_3** (0:16)
Halliburton, creative.

**SPEAKER_1** (0:18)
That was two dimes, but Denzel Valentine's too reckless. Because when his team desperately needed a bucket, he took a low IQ shot from the parking lot.

**SPEAKER_4** (0:26)
Oh, my goodness, Valentine.

**SPEAKER_5** (0:28)
God, at that moment.

**SPEAKER_1** (0:31)
Dude missed everything, but the Thunder really missed James Harden, because after he blocked the player's shot, the player tried to peg James Harden with the ball, but he saw it coming and did this.

**SPEAKER_6** (0:40)
Zort for three, blocked by Harden. Zort got it back, tried to throw it off Harden, and missed him.

**SPEAKER_1** (0:46)
That's a chess move, but sometimes dumb plays are hilarious. Like the time Marcus Smart got confused by the shot clock and launched a terrible shot. Man, that's tough, but Luka Dantzsch is completely school Kevin Love.
That was a cheat code, but Eric Blesso glitched because he thought he could get away with inbounding the ball himself. But Draymond Green didn't just make a smart play, he made one that saved Clay Thompson's career.

**SPEAKER_6** (1:26)
He finds Tristan Thompson. Oh, Clay Thompson goes on top of him.

**SPEAKER_7** (1:30)
Good job by Draymond Green holding up Clay Thompson.

**SPEAKER_5** (1:32)
That's a dangerous play.

**SPEAKER_1** (1:34)
He owes Draymond a dinner for sure, but Jalen Suggs owes his team three points because he pulled up for three and did the dumbest showbo ever.

**SPEAKER_6** (1:41)
Suggs.

**SPEAKER_7** (1:43)
Suggs on a step back three.

**LeBron James** (1:44)
Oh no, he just pulled a Nick Young.

**SPEAKER_2** (1:46)
Nah, he didn't do that.

**SPEAKER_6** (1:47)
He pulled a Nick Young.

**SPEAKER_4** (1:48)
Come on, man.

**SPEAKER_9** (1:49)
Come on, man.

**SPEAKER_1** (1:50)
Listen, you gotta make it first. But Rajon Rondo makes smart plays look easy because right before he was going to get blocked, he dropped the perfect behind the back pass.

**SPEAKER_9** (1:59)
Rondo, one man to beat.

**SPEAKER_4** (2:00)
Swoops back to Allen.

**SPEAKER_6** (2:01)
Credit pass and the finish.

**SPEAKER_4** (2:03)
Rajon Rondo.

**SPEAKER_1** (2:04)
That was pretty. But this next play would have been dope if it wasn't dumb because Thomas Bryan had a put back dunk on the wrong basket.

**SPEAKER_4** (2:13)
Volts, the step back jumper.

**SPEAKER_9** (2:16)
Thomas Bryan, did he just throw that down?

**SPEAKER_1** (2:20)
You gotta bench him after that, but LeBron James should have been benched for life because his genius play destroyed Kelly Olynyx nuts.

**SPEAKER_5** (2:29)
Throws it off of Olynyx.

**LeBron James** (2:31)
I mean, he fired it off of Olynyx.

**SPEAKER_7** (2:33)
Fired it off of him is right, and LeBron went over there. Helps him up.

**SPEAKER_1** (2:37)
I don't care if it was smart. You gotta apologize after that. But some plays are so dumb, you gotta see it to believe it. At the time, PJ. Tucker completely tweaked and let the Knicks have the ball.

**SPEAKER_7** (2:46)
Yeah, but they're gonna use Nick 24

**SPEAKER_1** (2:48)
Oh, that's the ball is locked.

**SPEAKER_6** (2:51)
Tucker fell asleep on it.

**SPEAKER_1** (2:54)
Yo, dudes' brains shut off. But before we get any further, we gotta talk about Couchy, the largest prediction market in the US and the sponsor of this video. See, with NBA and NFL games happening every week, Couchy wants to take your sports experience to the next level, because they're offering you an exciting new way to get in on the action right now. All you gotta do is download the Couchy app, sign up using my promo code DIME NBA, and place a trade on anything. I mean, you can trade on the outcome of basketball, football, politics, and thousands of other events. Like if your favorite NBA player will drop 50, or which coach will be the next one out of the NFL. But Couchy makes your experience so much better, because instead of normal trades against the house, you're actually just trading a yes or no outcome on event contracts, just like you would buying or selling stocks. And not only can you participate in all 50 states, but Couchy trades on a regulated market, where you can cash out whenever you want. You heard that right. So when you're up, you can pull out whenever you want, giving users a chance to score on game day. But now it's time to talk about Lonzo Ball, because he picked up a loose ball and threw a rocket.
I have no idea what André Drummond was doing, because he made the worst layup attempt we've ever seen.
