The Absolute Chilling Masterclasses in NBA History

SPEAKER_1 (0:00)

These are the 21 coldest moments in NBA history. And coming in at number 21 on our list, the time Scottie Pippen had his nuts all up in Patrick Ewing's face.

SPEAKER_2 (0:09)

Brad, he leads the team and walks in the playoffs.

SPEAKER_3 (0:19)

Now, right there, a lot to say.

SPEAKER_1 (0:24)

Sheesh, Pippen caught a body, and so did Kyrie Irving at number 20 When he disrespected not one player, but a whole team.

SPEAKER_5 (0:31)

Down to Irving. That's up the floor in a hurry.

SPEAKER_3 (0:34)

Irving, attack mode for two.

SPEAKER_6 (0:38)

There is nothing the Bad Jumps Band can not do in transition.

SPEAKER_1 (0:42)

Oof, this man Kyrie is a savage, bro. But an even wilder moment has to be number 19, the time one NBA legend humiliated another. See, during the 2018 Western Conference Finals, Steph Curry hit one of the craziest threes. And to top it off, he decided to hit the Rockets with the shimmy. And let's just say, Chris Paul took that shit personally. Not gonna lie, the shot in the shimmy was hella epic, but Curry took it like a man.

SPEAKER_3 (1:16)

If you can shimmy on somebody else, you gotta be all right getting shimmyed on.

SPEAKER_1 (1:20)

Now, hitting a shimmy after a three is cold, but imagine getting back at your worst enemy, because that's exactly what Dwayne Wade did at number 18 See, back in 2011, during a matchup between OKC and the Miami Heat, Kendrick Perkins started with a UFC game, then fly-kicked Dwayne in the head.

SPEAKER_5 (1:36)

Nice passing from Ibaka to Perkins, who gets tied up inside.

SPEAKER_1 (1:42)

And let's just say Dwayne got his revenge in the coldest way possible.

SPEAKER_5 (1:47)

And they blind-side him from the right corner for two dunks.

SPEAKER_1 (2:00)

Well, I'll be damned. That spin in the dunk. Ridiculous, but not as ridiculous as number 17 The time LeBron James literally thought another NBA player was so trash, he said, fuck it.

SPEAKER_6 (2:10)

Pressure, the breath goes right around him.

SPEAKER_5 (2:13)

Drip go, sole of the pump tank.

SPEAKER_1 (2:20)

I mean, imagine pulling up for a three, and your defender just runs past you as if you don't even exist. That's tough. But you know what else is tough? JaVale McGee, because this dude been hitting on grannies and doing all types of weird shit over the years. But what he did against the Blazers was mind blowing. JaVale McGee was such a beautiful snatch. Who would have thought? Not me. But I mean, I wouldn't have believed number 15 either. The time Steph Curry humiliated the rookie Jalen Brown.

SPEAKER_2 (2:51)

But I think they can give him a good, a good push.

SPEAKER_1 (3:10)

Sheesh. Curry told him to shut his ass up. That's cold, dawg. But imagine the shame of getting dropped not once, but twice, and then getting scored on. But that's exactly what happened to Antonio Daniel at our 14th spot.

SPEAKER_3 (3:21)

In the Eastern Conference, he's just...

SPEAKER_6 (3:24)

Throw the cards up in the air right now. Oh, Allen Iverson.

SPEAKER_5 (3:27)

What a move! Allen Iverson.

SPEAKER_1 (3:30)

Easy. Iverson had that man breakdancing. Now, for number 13, we gotta talk about the time LeBron took things way too far. See, back in 2018, in a game between the Cavs and the Celtics, LeBron gave the ball away. But what he did afterwards was ridiculous.

SPEAKER_4 (3:46)

He's stolen by Rogier.

SPEAKER_3 (3:48)

Three-on-one break for Boston. Rogier to the basket.

SPEAKER_5 (3:50)

Oh, block by James, he did it again.

SPEAKER_1 (3:54)

Sheesh. I swear LeBron is a bully, man. How you gonna turn the ball over, block it, stare into a soul like that? But believe me, this is far from LeBron's coldest moment ever. See, during the 2014 playoffs between the Heat and the Hornets, LeBron took the GOAT debate to a whole new level, when he disrespected the GOAT, Michael Jordan.

SPEAKER_5 (4:11)

In the opening frame, here's a steal by LeBron. Here comes a show.

SPEAKER_4 (4:14)

He's not even looking at the...

SPEAKER_1 (4:21)

Oh my God. Did you see that? That shit was personal, but it's not as crazy as number 11 So we all know Steph Curry is ridiculous, hitting threes from anywhere, breaking ankles. This dude does it all. But what he did against the Mavs was out of this world.

SPEAKER_4 (4:36)

Clay Thompson, Wiggins, Looney, freeze.

SPEAKER_3 (4:42)

Oh, what a shot!

SPEAKER_7 (4:48)

10-0 Golden State Run.

SPEAKER_1 (4:50)

Man, Curry is a cheat code, bro. How you gonna make Denwitty run around like a fool, then hit him with a no-look three? But anyways, we're entering the top 10, so things are about to get even colder. It was the 2021 playoffs, Knicks vs. Hawks. Scratch that. More like Trey Young vs. the Knicks. And with less than a minute left in game three, Trey did something unimaginable.
