Ben Wallace's Afro-Swaying Goaltend of Shaquille O'Neal's Jump Hook (2004 Finals)

I know this footage still isn't perfect, but it was deemed a significant enough upgrade over my original upload almost 10 years ago to warrant another contribution. June 15, 2004 - On the verge of closing out the Los Angeles Lakers in Game 5 of the 2004 NBA Finals, Detroit Pistons center Ben Wallace emerged from the weakside to rise for a symbolically emphatic rejection of Shaquille O'Neal's jump hook attempt. Wallace finished with 18 points and 22 rebounds in his team's championship clincher.

Grant Hill Styles on the Knicks on National TV, Pushes Pistons to 19-4 (1996)
Grant Hill Styles on the Knicks on National TV, Pushes Pistons to 19-4 (1996)

December 18, 1996 - Some context: 1. Budding all-star guard Allan Houston, drafted by the Pistons in 1993, spurned the team to sign a free agent deal with the New York Knicks during the 1996 offseason. This December 18th matchup served as his first return to the Palace of Auburn Hills, where he was met with relentless jeers and boos. Houston attempted just four shots (hitting one) and committed five turnovers in 20 minutes. 2. The Pistons were the surprise of the NBA up to this point of the 1996-97 season, entering their matchup with the Knicks with an 18-4 record and running neck and neck with Michael Jordan's Chicago Bulls. 3. This was one of the Pistons' first national television looks of the year, as a part of the NBA on TBS Wednesday showcase. 4. As a part of the celebration of the NBA's 50th anniversary, the Pistons and Knicks both wore throwback jerseys representing the pioneering iterations of each franchise (the Pistons initially got their start in Ft. Wayne, Indiana). The results: The Pistons dominated from start to finish, winning 112-78. Hill achieved his first triple-double of the season, electrifying the Palace crowd with a poster over John Starks and John Wallace and a mind-bending spin and scoop past Allan Houston. He finished with 17 points, 11 rebounds, 10 assists, and 5 steals. The 34-point win likely served as the Pistons' high water mark. A late-season rift between head coach Doug Collins and power forward Otis Thorpe led to an end-of-year slide and a 54-win finish that tucked the Pistons into fourth seed/fifth seed matchup with the Atlanta Hawks. The series went the distance with the Pistons wilting in the do-or-die Game 5 (this was six years prior to the NBA's move to a seven-game opening series).

Philadelphia 76ers Draft Shawn Bradley (No. 2 Overall 1993)
Philadelphia 76ers Draft Shawn Bradley (No. 2 Overall 1993)

June 30, 1993 - Shawn Bradley took a circuitous path to the NBA. After averaging 25 points, 17 rebounds, and 9 blocks as a high school senior, the 7-foot-6 center enrolled at Brigham Young University (BYU) in Provo, Utah. There, he averaged 14.8 points and 7.7 rebounds while setting the NCAA freshman record for blocks (177) and blocks per game (5.2). Following his freshman year (the 1990-91 college season), Bradley stepped away from collegiate basketball and instead embarked on a two-year mission trip to Australia. So it was with that knowledge—that he hadn't played competitively at a high level in two years—that the 76ers snagged Bradley with the second overall pick in '93. While never achieving stardom on the level of fellow top-5 picks Chris Webber, Penny Hardaway, and Jamal Mashburn, Bradley was still able to carve out a 12-year NBA career that saw him rack up 2,119 blocks, good for 14th all-time in NBA history (just 18 blocks behind Ben Wallace). After retiring in 2005, Bradley returned to Utah, his home state, where he once had his giant, oversized mountain bike stolen off his property. But then it was found. https://www.deseret.com/2011/11/10/20389469/dumbfounded-shawn-bradley-wonders-why-anyone-would-steal-custom-made-bike#shawn-bradley-shown-here-riding-his-custom-made-bicycle-that-was-stolen-during-a-recent-burglary



Shaquille O'Neal - Rookie All-Star Game Highlights (14 Points, 3 Dunks, 1 Jumper)
Shaquille O'Neal - Rookie All-Star Game Highlights (14 Points, 3 Dunks, 1 Jumper)

February 21, 1993 - Midway through a first year campaign that saw him post averages of 23.4 points, 13.9 rebounds, and 3.5 blocked shots, Orlando Magic rookie Shaquille O'Neal made his presence felt in the 1993 NBA All-Star Game with a 14-point, 7-rebound performance as the East's starting center. Contrary to his latter years in the league, there are some oddities to be observed in O'Neal's performance. Namely, he connects on a free throw line jumper at 1:25 and has two of his dunks turned away at the rim (though the first block, by Charles Barkley, was technically whistled a foul). O'Neal would go on to be selected to 15 All-Star games altogether. Box Score: https://www.basketball-reference.com/allstar/NBA_1993.html
