**SPEAKER_1** (0:00)
From insane no-look passes to faking injuries for points.

**SPEAKER_2** (0:04)
Here's McGee from Davis.

**SPEAKER_1** (0:06)
These are the greatest trick plays in NBA history. And first, we got the time Kobe Bryant got trapped. But at the last second, he used the backboard to free himself.

**SPEAKER_3** (0:15)
Here's Bryant.

**SPEAKER_4** (0:17)
Off the board to himself.

**SPEAKER_5** (0:18)
Back to Powell. Scores.

**SPEAKER_7** (0:21)
What a play. Kobe Bryant to Powell.

**SPEAKER_1** (0:24)
No one expected that. But if you sleep on Avery Bradley, he'll make you pay. Because he tricked the Hawks by looking like he was too busy tying his shoe and did this.

**SPEAKER_8** (0:32)
12 of 19 from the field and a steal.

**SPEAKER_3** (0:35)
Three on one.

**SPEAKER_8** (0:37)
Lobs it up for Hollins. And Hollins slams it home.

**SPEAKER_1** (0:41)
That was a chessman to the G League and showed he can go under the defense whatever he wants.

**SPEAKER_7** (0:47)
He goes through Tavares' legs.

**SPEAKER_9** (0:49)
You're not likely to see that very often, folks.

**SPEAKER_1** (0:52)
He made him look stupid. And LeBron James knows what that's like. Because when he took on the Clippers, LeBron lost his shoe and used it as a distraction to slam dunk.

**SPEAKER_10** (1:00)
He's got one shoe on, right?

**SPEAKER_4** (1:02)
You need your shoes to play bad.

**SPEAKER_10** (1:05)
As great as he is, he still needs two shoes.

**SPEAKER_7** (1:08)
And here he is with the throw down.

**SPEAKER_1** (1:10)
Now Victor Webinyama can trick you in multiple ways. Because if anyone tries to steal it from him, he'll wrap it around his back and dunk it on the whole team.

**SPEAKER_7** (1:20)
And puts it down!

**SPEAKER_6** (1:24)
Are you kidding me?

**SPEAKER_8** (1:25)
Come on! Unicorn!

**SPEAKER_6** (1:27)
Stop this!

**SPEAKER_1** (1:28)
But Trey Young makes him look silly, because he doesn't just trick his opponents, he plays with them through their legs.

**SPEAKER_3** (1:36)
Trey comes up with it.

**SPEAKER_13** (1:38)
And rolls it in!

**SPEAKER_14** (1:39)
Did he nutmeg? Oh yeah!

**SPEAKER_1** (1:41)
Yes, he did.

**SPEAKER_2** (1:42)
They tried to grab him to slow him down.

**SPEAKER_7** (1:45)
This guy, he's not normal.

**SPEAKER_14** (1:47)
What he does is not normal.

**SPEAKER_4** (1:49)
Everyone talks about his size and how he's small.

**SPEAKER_14** (1:51)
Look what he does with that size.

**SPEAKER_1** (1:53)
But I think he got it from Chris Paul, because he's a magician with the rock.

**SPEAKER_14** (1:57)
Oh! He's telling himself, I gotta stop this.

**SPEAKER_16** (2:05)
I mean, I'm just embarrassing people. Let me calm down. I'm giving the crowd too much.

**SPEAKER_1** (2:10)
And he's tricked so many players with this move, it's starting to look easy.

**SPEAKER_7** (2:15)
And here comes Paul. Oh, what a play by Rashul Butler.

**SPEAKER_8** (2:20)
Did he throw this through the legs?

**SPEAKER_1** (2:22)
He did.

**SPEAKER_8** (2:22)
Nice dump off to Rashul Butler for the finish.

**SPEAKER_1** (2:25)
That dude got magic powers, but not like Russell Westbrook, because in a game where he already had 21 assists, he got his 22nd with a sham guy.

**SPEAKER_7** (2:35)
Oh! Oh!

**SPEAKER_8** (2:38)
We can go home now.

**SPEAKER_3** (2:40)
Can we go home?

**SPEAKER_7** (2:40)
Oh, we got to go.

**SPEAKER_11** (2:41)
That's like, come on, man.

**SPEAKER_7** (2:43)
You know what I'm going to say.

**SPEAKER_3** (2:44)
Did you see him pull the ball back away?

**SPEAKER_11** (2:47)
That's nasty.

**SPEAKER_7** (2:48)
How did he do it?

**SPEAKER_1** (2:50)
He crossed that dude out of his shoes, but sometimes trick plays are just lucky. I mean, Trevor Booker had no clue that with 0.2 seconds left, he'd score off this.

**SPEAKER_3** (3:00)
Booker.

**SPEAKER_9** (3:00)
Got it.

**SPEAKER_3** (3:01)
Are you kidding me?

**SPEAKER_9** (3:03)
I mean, if you want to define the phrase grandma shot, that defines the phrase grandma shot.

**SPEAKER_1** (3:10)
There's no way he could do that again. And I hope Yannis doesn't do this again either, because he tricked Jalen Brown with the worst sportsmanship ever.

**SPEAKER_14** (3:17)
Nye just trying to be aggressive.

**SPEAKER_9** (3:19)
Yeah, that's going to be an offensive foul.

**SPEAKER_14** (3:22)
Coming high with the elbow.

**SPEAKER_13** (3:23)
It's something similar, I believe, against the Knicks.

**SPEAKER_6** (3:26)
This is Yannis after the offensive foul call.

**SPEAKER_1** (3:29)
How you going to elbow a man in the head, then fake help him up? And Jalen was pissed about it too. So after the game, he slamed Yannis.

**SPEAKER_11** (3:36)
Yannis is a child.

**SPEAKER_16** (3:38)
You know, I'm just focused on helping my team get a win. And that's what we did tonight.

**SPEAKER_1** (3:43)
He wasn't messing around, unlike Karan Butler, because at the end of the game, Karan decided to fake high five his opponent, just so he could score one more time.
