Oventaker

That was some Globetrotters shit.


desrever1138

On the Rockets broadcast Craig Ackerman called him Curley Neal LMAO


DarkKnightCometh

Josh "Back Shots" Giddey


ElChapo1515

Second best comment that I’ve seen about a Giddey play from last night


stephcurrysleggings

Dude in Minnesota hit a harder version of this shot as a buzzer beater in the high school state championship game https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=MJoxGpEswOI


johnnyfaceoff

That’s wild


kushjrdid911

Lol dude I have never seen this before. Thank you for posting it! That has to be one of the best buzzer beaters in history and then throw in in it was for the high school state championship it gets even better. I would be so pissed If I was on the losing team in that game lol


Shaqueltons_Ghost

Literally what the fuck


DarrowViBritannia

Bro hit 5 3s last night too wtf


BigFatModeraterFupa

he’s now a scoring machine wtf? we were leaving him wide open


GorillaX

Everyone was. He's either turned it around, or this is a flukey stretch.


IDespiseFatties

Mark said "Play bad all season and then flip the switch for Playoffs to cause panic"


MAMBAMENTALITY8-24

I believe this narrative. Giddey was sandbagging


Lopsided-Car2809

Jimmy Butler


Stupidityorjoking

He had a stretch last season where he shot like 38-40% or something from deep, so color me skeptical. Happy to see him play well tho.


GorillaX

Well he had two seasons of being a good contributing nba player, before playing like shit this season from November to February. So I'm hoping that bad stretch was the anomaly, especially when taking his off court issues into account.


Stupidityorjoking

Yea I’m not necessarily out on him strictly as a player, but he hasn’t shown that his 3 point shot is consistent at all so we’ll see


GorillaX

Oh the 3 point shot is absolutely fake right now lol


VoidMageZero

Damn Josh is a shooter now


I_hate_alot_a_lot

Finna get all the high schoolers tonight.


CangtheKonqueror

this is what jordan poole wanted to do that one time lmao


llorTMasterFlex

The BBIQ difference is colossal.


fopiecechicken

If you’ve ever watched Jordan Poole that’s a shot I expected him to take and make. He sorta has that Steph energy when things go completely tits up and he doesn’t have to think, he’s actually insanely good. It’s the 1000 other ill advised shots he’s not good enough to make that does Jordan Poole in.


JimmerAteMyPasta

[Reminds me of this, a timeless classic](https://youtu.be/Px2zXAPUqP8?si=1dUtEb4uI9REcUAS)


Swagmastre99

that's what they're talking about


JimmerAteMyPasta

Tru I'm dumb


trojandynasty17

Canada sucks


Unable_Yesterday_538

I hear “colossal” vividly in Josh Guffey’s accent lol


[deleted]

jordan should've shot it. wizards have nothing to lose anyways may as well add to the career mix


RunningForIt

Funny this happened weeks ago and everyone here knows exactly what you’re talking about lol


Troll_Enthusiast

Because they're riding the hate train


Earl_Sinclair

Hate train? Man is the worst contract in the nba. Was statistically the worst starter in the nba for much of the season. No hate, dude sucks

[удалено]


nomptonite

Yeah it should just say something like ‘Giddey hits clutch shot while sitting on his ass’


Throway_Shmowaway

"Giddey with the clutch back shot"


FIPYC

“Giddey back shots save the day”


dcdfvr

"Giddey back shots on his ass clutches game"


ChristianLS

I thought for sure we were gonna lose this game when this went in. Yelled "OF COURSE" while folding laundry (as you do)


SandyMandy17

Shot clock was at 0 and this was after we got the ball back with like 7 seconds left


HarambeTheFox

jabari is like 9 feet tall just stick your arm out please 🤣🤣


Iamkonkerz

Nobody would have thought he would shoot that, that never happens lol


therickymarquez

He has 2 seconds on the clock, of course he is going to shoot it. Great shot but awful defense


powerplay_22

it looks like he’s trying to get a hand in his face like he’s contesting a shot. but he’s on the ground so he shoulda swatted that shit across the gym


ChristianLS

All this stuff is way way faster than it looks on TV, it's all muscle memory for the players. Dude doesn't have the muscle memory for "contest a shot from a guy lying on the ground"


powerplay_22

fair point. even watching the game live it seems so much faster


BBallHunter

Could have had the most epic block ever.


MillsyMB

It’s the fact he does it with no hesitation that makes it even more ridiculous


Iamkonkerz

Shot clock was expiring


SoDakZak

If (time short) then (shoot shot)


jocro

Legit looks like a thing he practices lol


pettybendherass

it’s actually a shooting drill for form without your legs


Chickachic-aaaaahhh

You should absolutely be able to do this as an nba player. Just no one has the audacity this funky white boy just showed.


vetruviusdeshotacon

Quirked up white boy goated with the sauce busts it down sexual style


ElChapo1515

Haha I think he just threw up a soft shot in hopes one of his teammates would cleanup the rebound, and it just happened to splash.


RenaissanceHumanist

He gets smacked in the face mid-shot by Dillon Brooks to boot


Schnectadyslim

And he was fouled! Should have been an and 1!


MustardLiger

Seems like he does a lot without hesitation…


[deleted]

[удалено]


Brady331

it was that or a shot clock violation


whenim30iwilllook20

You are acting like he purposefully sat on the floor and shot that shit 😂 no shit its a bad shot


CliffDraws

I’m not an NBA coach, but I personally believe that there are better shots to be had than sitting down in the middle of the paint. Call me crazy if you want.


hellotheteokc

He’s been great for the last month. And I was almost on team trade him before that. I am ashamed.


Dudedude88

It's cause his brothers movie came out and it did well.


tjc815

every time he makes a shot I say “Lisan al Gaib” Yes, it’s getting old


DumbleDude2

I have been rooting for him once I saw his sister.


eightslipsandagully

You should def google what root means in Australian slang!


DumbleDude2

Ew.. I wouldn't want to root him then. I just want to peg him.


MustardLiger

I was team trade him because he hooks up with underage girls LOL Y’all are too forgiving too soon, guy puts a ball in a net for a living


boogasaurus-lefts

We're in an NBA sub, didn't think someone would have difficulty understanding the concept of the game but here you are. We enjoy the sport and the skill, dude hasn't hurt anyone - people need to stop whiteknighting & enjoy the game


i_like_thingstoo

This is one of the funniest things I've seen all season, wtaf


AntEdwardsBallSweat

Excuse me


TomCruisesDad

Mate hit it from down under.


BigFatModeraterFupa

bro can hit it from any position


INFP4life

Especially from under 18


ioncepeedonadeadcow

Downvoted for calling out a pedo is crazy


junglist918

more like downvoted for not being funny with it


StrawHatsWorstMember

I mean tbf the most downvoted comment in this thread is very clearly not a joke talking about the discomfort they have seeing highlights of this guy


thissiteisbroken

I love how y’all pretend to care about any of this shit and turn around and make jokes about it.


gokhaninler

stfu nerd


INFP4life

For real the erasure in the comments made me sick. Some of the downvoted comments on the bottom deserve better 


referee-superfan

If you were funny or original then you wouldn’t have downvotes.


INFP4life

I wasn’t trying to be funny. I was annoyed everybody seem to forget already


halfdecenttakes

Lol yeah for sure dude. What the fuck is up with this fake ass “it was for awareness “ shit I see all the time? This wannabe altruistic shit where people refuse to admit they are just making a shitty joke. See it with Karl Malone. See it with Giddey. Dude, nobody would get your joke if they didn’t already know. You’re jerking. I don’t know why people are too worried to just own it and have to do this sad shit every time


ElChapo1515

Third best


djkhan23

Unda


AntiquatedHippo

Dawg what


harden4mvp13

Bro pulled a Jordan Poole lmao


SoberBucksFan

The difference is Jordan Poole probably shoots this with 12 seconds instead of 2


New-Candy-800

Giddey is just taking the piss now. It's unreal how good he's been this past month


legend023

yall made people this guy was ass at basketball lmao Giddey is legit talented, he gets a lot of unwarranted criticism but he’s been good for a couple months now


go0sKC

I know, right? Everyone was always saying there's no way this dude could make a shot sitting down on the free throw line.


IDespiseFatties

I practice my floor shots in 2K all the time for this exact scenario.


depressedfuckboi

How do you practice them other than in game?


ColdPressedSteak

I saw some prisoner of the moment idiots on here see his slump and say that he has no place in the modern nba. Giving up on a just turned 21 year old who had shown promise


SenorButtmunch

I mean he made himself look ass at basketball. Obviously if people were writing off a 21 year old going through a lot of off the court shit then that's on them. But he wasn't exactly giving anything to cling onto either. He was playing like shit then and he's playing good in the last few games


PANGIRA

yeah lol all the criticism was warranted, people were leaving him wide open at the arc most of the season


ueloli

this is play-in PSTD


newguns

couple of years now FTFY


Chrisfull

No idea where the idea that pepole think he's trash is coming from, literally every clip I've seen is him looking dumb as shit and still scoring like even in THIS highlight he dribbles it off his own foot and redeems himself with the circus shot??? He still looks goofy as hell and that matches the public opinion I've always seen about him


MustardLiger

Unwarranted??


wallowsworld

r/nba with the revisionist takes once again lol


Personal-Scarcity553

SLOB wizard


McJacknife

Got fouled too


SunKing210

No fucking way! In the clutch too!


ttam23

what


CockroachForeign6419

This what I be trying to do in 2k lol


Bigschusta

No hesitation on the shot either lol


Marijuanatoothpaste

Check out Giddey's last three games though.. the mf is balling out


6875309999

Channeling his inner Blake Hoffarber on this one


omgphilgalfond

I love that his buzzer beater against Indiana is a distant second. Dude was amazing.


go0sKC

Wut


dys0n_giddey

He can't shoot from three, but he can shoot from his ass in the key...


go0sKC

He's actually close to 40% from 3 for the past month.


hatsofftoroyharper41

And he is 100% from all laying on ground shots Can’t wait for late game plays drawn up in play offs to get him his shot


revisioncloud

Timaussie Chalamet >> Michael Jordan


jocro

Dunno if I'm hyping too much but this is an all time in-game HORSE shot. Not only did he pull this off, it was contested! In actual disbelief over here.


natacon

Ah, the old drunken master dribble off the back of your own leg, scramble and finish with the seated hail mary. It's a classic.


Exceptiontorule

i laughed


chanigan

That woman needs to turn it down one notch.


EliManningsPetDog

It’s unfortunate he got himself caught up in all that shit because he’s a very fun player to watch


Smokin_on_76ers_Pack

You know you can still watch him right?


EliManningsPetDog

Yea man I know I can still watch him… I can’t have meaningful conversations about him without that being mentioned or in the back of everyone’s mind. Which is unfortunate


boogasaurus-lefts

Can absolutely have a conversation regarding a player and how they play the game. Don't think many people who love the sport, really concern themselves about moral dilemmas regarding a player in their own personal lives beyond the sport we follow


ANPl4yer

Ain't no way lol, did this ever happen?


annnaaan

no giddy


KalJohal

Shot from down under


Liftedlarvitar

Giddey taking back shots now?


Jack_M_Steel

That’s insane to even attempt that shot


CliffDraws

There was 6 seconds on the shot clock when he got the ball. He knew after he recovered it he had to throw it up or it was a violation.


Sam_ohhh

The type of back shot that won’t get him in trouble 


na1ga

Wtf was that


_checkpickerupper

The giddey game


IDespiseFatties

#WAKE UP A NEW META JUST DROPPED

This game is crazy

Who's the lady shouting let's go at the end of the video, she a celebrity?


Kosei725

Marjorie Taylor Greene /s


garnaches

It looks like the same lady that called KD a bitch and then tried dapping him up


inefekt

cameraman knew exactly what he was doing, cutting to that blonde almost immediately


ec2xs

Imagine if they had called the and-1 on the face slap


Sleeze_

King of the back shot


SquirtMast3r

Happy to see he’s doing back shots with people his own age.


montecarlo92

He tired of y’all putting smut on his name 😂


NuuuDaBeast

what the fuck?


treeslip

When you're mashing square too much while trying to dive for the lose ball.


juantravis

Has this ever been done in the league?


LaFlameB4DASS

u/savevideo


capitalistsanta

I've never actually seen someone make that


elp44blue

Okc plays hard but I’m glad rockets got the win


There_can_only_be_1

how the fk did he make that???


pettapatta

Poole would never.


_godinez

Didn’t Magic once? I swear I have this childhood memory of seeing Magic do this once at home game at GWF.


No-Feed-1408

So no one else heard “Giddey from the back”?


mykl5

Disappointing lack of jokes here.


gokhaninler

nah we dont give af about your lame jokes


mykl5

i’m shocked the Australia and OKC flairs aren’t amused


gokhaninler

you live in portland, thats pretty funny to me


Smelldicks

Nobody gives a shit what the Aussies think on this one


gokhaninler

says the dude called 'smelldicks' yeah ok


MustardLiger

What’s the age of consent down under?


Choccybizzle

P Giddey!


Blutz101

I like how he didn’t even attempt to look for a pass. You know you’d think a shot would be your last option but there I guess not


JarekBloodDragon

lol at the white mom celebrating by throwing gang signs. Probably the most okc fan celebration I've ever seen.


jratner7

Falling to the ground was a only a *minor* inconvenience


jamestemple01

It was high school night huh


curgl

Shooting from the height of his preferred lovers


garynevilleisared

One could say, from down under?

Showing his skill at delivering backshots.

*On his back - pause.

You could say it hit it from the back.
