When the Odds Officially Glitched Out

SPEAKER_1 (0:00)

These are the 21 most impossible moments in NBA history. And coming in at number 11, Corey Drogic loses all senses of his surroundings, only to do this.

SPEAKER_2 (0:09)

Out early in the first quarter, they're able to reinsert him here at the end.

SPEAKER_1 (0:17)

Damn, save that shit for the circus next time. But Luka must have also thought he was at the circus, after attempting one of the wildest passes you'll ever see.

SPEAKER_3 (0:25)

Bacundo Campazzo in the game. Tancic.

SPEAKER_1 (0:38)

Damn, you can't even back off Luka for one second. Unreal. Now, we've come to expect that kind of BS from Luka, but never in a million years did I expect a seven-foot Robin Lopez to try this.

SPEAKER_4 (0:48)

No, he's not.

SPEAKER_2 (0:49)

Here he is again.

SPEAKER_4 (0:51)

Whoa, Lopez!

SPEAKER_1 (0:56)

Either Lopez has two eyes in the back of his head or my dog got lucky, but do you know what's almost as rare as having two eyes in the back of your head? Blocking Shaquille O'Neal. See, it was February 6, 2010, and fans were expecting just another mid-season matchup between the Knicks and the Cavs, when instead, they watched the league's smallest player, Nate Robinson, and the league's biggest player, Shaq, go toe-to-toe. Damn, Robinson may only be 5'9, but he's got the heart of a line. But if you thought that was impressive, check out what Nate Robinson did during the 2013 playoffs. Don't get me wrong, I'm not a fan of the way he plays. I've seen a lot of players play against him, and I've seen a lot of players play against him. But I don't think he's the only player who's made a heads-up play against LeBron.

Don't get me wrong, getting dunked on by LBJ isn't fun, but Henderson got the last laugh since the referees didn't count the basket. Speaking of which, James Harden can relate to LeBron James because eight years later, something very similar happened.

SPEAKER_4 (2:17)

To go.

SPEAKER_3 (2:19)

Harden to steal.

SPEAKER_4 (2:33)

Oh, wait a minute.

SPEAKER_1 (2:34)

God damn. James Harden almost became the first player to score two baskets with one shot, and the refs can't even acknowledge he made the first one. Shaking my head. But if you thought almost scoring two baskets with a dunk was impossible, you are in for a rude awakening. It was November 24th, 2010, Celtics vs. Nets. Screw it. Shaq vs. the World. Because one thing fans never expected to see was Shaq making two consecutive free throws.

SPEAKER_3 (3:07)

You're the best. You're absolutely the best.

SPEAKER_1 (3:10)

They say lightning doesn't strike twice, but if Shaq can miss over 5,000 free throws and still make two consecutive free throws, then I beg to differ. On a more serious note, even a blind squirrel finds a nut now and then. However, you know what a blind squirrel can do? This.

SPEAKER_2 (3:25)

123, 121

SPEAKER_1 (3:46)

Since when was a game between the Kings and the Magic supposed to be so entertaining? But then again, maybe they deserve each other. On the other hand, fans expect a great battle between two future Hall of Famers, Jason Kidd and Yao Ming, on November 22nd, 2010 And boy, they did not disappoint, because with only 0.4 seconds remaining, the Rockets held a narrow one point lead over the Mavericks. That was until this happened.

If you told me 12 years ago that Jason Kidd would inbound a game-winning Oluwup over 7-6 Yao Ming, I'd call you crazy. Yet, legendary players have a way of making the impossible seem normal. Just ask the Wayne Wade.

SPEAKER_4 (4:30)

That was official. Rubio turns it over. Wayne Waheven is good and it goes, and it does go.

Wayne Wade.

SPEAKER_1 (4:42)

Never did I expect to hear, steals the ball, 360 spin, and a half-court shot all in the same sentence. Give this man his flowers. But anyways, now that we've reached the top 10 most impossible moments, we're about to turn one in a thousand moments into one in a million moments. And it starts with the Black Mamba on April 4th, 2006, because against the Suns, Kobe Bryant had one of the most legendary performances ever. On this night, Kobe hit not one, but two game-altering shots. First, he hits a game-time shot in regulation.

SPEAKER_4 (5:12)

Charge to Kobe Bryant. Bryant inside. It's good.

SPEAKER_1 (5:16)

And then, if that wasn't enough, Kobe took clutch to another level in overtime.

SPEAKER_4 (5:21)

Final seconds. Bryant for the win.

SPEAKER_1 (5:29)

It's one thing to hit a game-altering shot, but hitting two, that's how legends are born. But it's still not as earth-shattering as number nine, because one time, Nick Van Exel did the unthinkable with two defenders draped all over him.
