It was a nice play, but certainly not one that should go down as one of the greatest of all time. Plus he could have just dunked the ball to begin with, Perkins didn't even jump.

Re: Greatest NBA Shots/Moves/Runs
The LJ 4 point play is my favorite. We got some good ones in the playoffs two years ago. There was that infamous Lakers/Spurs game where Kobe hit a go ahead jumper with <15 seconds left, Duncan hit a shot while he was nearly horizontal with <1 second left, and Derek Fisher got all the credit for his .4 second heave. I was yelling so much during that game. Then the very next night the Nets and Pistons went to triple overtime, Chauncey Billups hit a halfcourt buzzer beater to tie the game at the end of one of them. Porbably the best weekend of basketball I've ever experienced.

I remember there was this one dunk in the olympics where Vince Carter dunked over this one guy and jumped over his head!

Allan Houston runner against Miami in Game 5. One of my top three moments as a sports fan.
