Top 10 NBA WTF Moments in Recent Memory (with Links!)

10)Gilbert Arenas Trampoline at ASG
I’ll let Gilbert himself explain how this crazy moment came to be:
We were sitting there in the timeout watching them Elvis guys dunk, and my big mouth, I was like, “Man, I can do that better than them.” And then they missed a couple so I was like, “When they finish up, I’m going to go do it.”
Shaq was like, “Yeah, right.” He said, “I’ll put $100,000 in your foundation.”
I was like, $100,000 or get in trouble by David Stern?
$100,000 or get in trouble by David Stern?
Oh man, I’ll take that fine. So I did it for my Zer0 2 Her0 charity.
It was great though. Between the legs…Yea-ahhh!
I used to practice those trampoline dunks back at Golden State. I can flip and everything. But I didn’t want to flip and crack my neck.
9)Karl Malone Fighting Dennis Rodman on WCW
Karl Malone and Dennis Rodman had their fair share of arguments on the court, but no one expected them to take it to the next level - on a fake wrestling show!
Chris “The BirdMan” Andersen Dunk Attempt
This is one of those things that you don’t know whether to boo, to laugh at, or just to sit there cringing and hoping the ball goes through the hoop. The fast forward in the youtube video, helps make this top 10 worthy.
Not many people knew Qyntel Woods, but one thing about him was certain - he wasnt normal. Fortunately for us, before he was kicked from the League for being involved in Dog Fighting, he left us with one crazy moment that had everyone watching go “What the %$#@”.
6)Morris Peterson’s Buzzer Beater
Washington actually ended up losing this game. I can’t imagine what his teammates must have said to him in the locker room. Oh wait I can: “WTF MAN!?”
What are we talkin’ about?
4)Rasheed Wallace throws a towel at the face of legendary teammate Sabonis
Well if you went ahead and pressed my fake link, then I sincerely apologize. My blogging credibility, if I ever had one, is now in complete shambles. Fact is, I searched for a video for a good 10 minutes (10 minutes on the internet is like 2 hours in real life)! Anyways the title does justice to what an outrageous and unexpected moment this was. Reason for Rasheed’s actions (not that HE ever needs one): Sabonis accidentally elbowed him on the court.
3)Reggie Evans Grabbing Chris Kaman’s Balls
Seriously, WTF.
Couple of seconds left in the game, you have the ball on your side of the court and you are one rebound shy of a triple-double. What do you do? What Ricky did of course. People might not agree with this choice but this is one of those WTFs that made sense. In fact, call me crazy but he became one of my favorite players after this incident.
The king of craziness. Responsible for many WTF moments including the massive Brawl in Detroit. Dennis Rodman looks like the Pope next to this guy.
oytun is loving the game.
