Ok so some of these posts I clearly wasn’t old enough to witness and in this case even alive, so I had to do my homework. Â NBA throwbacks aren’t complete without showing a crazy dunk by the man himself Julius Erving also known as Dr. J. Â When I came across this one it just had to be included. Â The pure creativity and finesse of this dunk over Michael Cooper leaves a lasting memory. Â Check the video out after the jump. @Shay_Marie x @gametimegirl
(Video) NBA Throwback: Chris Childs Hits Kobe With a Two Piece Combo
Kobe fans usually get convenient amnesia when this fight is mentioned but Knicks fans will never forget. Â The two got in each other’s faces and Childs hit Kobe with a lil headbutt and in return Kobe threw an elbow. Â Then it got REAL, Childs hit Kobe with a two piece combo, Kobe then swung and missed before the two were broken up and separated. Â Check the video out after the jump. @Shay_Marie x @gametimegirl
(Video) NBA Throwback: Kobe Bryant “More Than Just ‘The Shot'” Buzzerbeater
Game 4 of the series between the Los Angeles Lakers and the Phoenix Suns. Â It looks to me like Nash was fouled by Lamar Odom or Luke Walton but ref called a jump ball. Â Walton wins the jump ball and tips it out to Kobe. Â Kobe then hit the jumper over two defenders at the buzzer to give the Lakers the 99-98 win over the Suns. Â He put the Lakers up 3-1 in the series later eliminating them from the playoffs and more to come. Â Check the video out after the jump. @Shay_Marie x @gametimegirl
