He pointed at the bench before the shot had barely left Beasleys hand lol

[–] BrandingtheMavericks@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

All these “assist[s] of the year” are all things I would expect Luka to regularly do

[–] alex_zz9@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

So many hitters on the floor tonight!

[–] gustavokh@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Perfectly calculated

[–] dianabr0@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Street ball pass lol

[–] lolwtferic@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

this is peak human athleticism

[–] ShotClockCheeeese@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

This is just unfair man

[–] The_Sign_of_Zeta@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

This was some globetrotter shit.

[–] sirvey23@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

lmao thats pretty funny, even did the goggle thing

[–] JD1337@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

The ol' stepback into a fake shot behind the head assist, gets 'em every time.

[–] Guwop25@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

That's a Luka pass

[–] PicaroKaguya@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

he didn't wanna let derozen get one on him.

[–] leftysarepeople2@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

What did they say about Dua Lipa after?

[–] starmiesan@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

He’s just too moist

[–] Necessary_Initial350@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Sheeeeeeeeeeeesh

[–] ChancIas@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Better than Demare?

[–] the4uto@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (3 children)

It almost looks intentional... to the point where I'm still questioning it.

[–] Exodus100@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Luka does this a fair bit so I’m primed to think it’s intentional. In this position and knowing there isn’t a defender behind you this pass really isn’t hard to make given that it’s slow and high

[–] materics@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

You can see on the replay his expression looks like he fucked up

[–] visual_clarity@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

It was intentional. Globetrotter shiet

Dont listen to the announcers, Kris was clowning around, hornets weren’t playing any defense saw an opportunity when is shooter is right behind him with no one pulling up.

Youtube compilation makers salivating

The announcer screaming OH NO is so funny

[–] youarenut@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

This and Demar’s spin cancel are definitely up there. Also I saw this live but looked away at the exact moment so I just thought he missed a shot but was so confused how Beasley had it in a split second. Now it makes sense haha

[–] youarenut@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

This was so smooth it looked accidental.

[–] The-Pharcyde@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

all part of the plan

[–] dragonrider5555@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

First time you watch it on ya phone it looks planned

[–] Arkham14@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Great assist, but Demar's was sick.

[–] turtle_figurine@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Pretty sure if the shooter points at someone afterwards it count an assist, right? ..right?

Right.

People don't actually think he did this on purpose...do they? The ball slipped out of his hand lol

[–] Csalbertcs@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Khris used tricknology to make it appear as if the ball slipped out of his hand to fool the defender, and us viewers, making this assist twice as impressive. The smoothness, accuracy, and the ball iq of the pass are top tier, but we've seen assists like this before. It is the Oscar worthy performance of Middleton to make it appear as if the ball had slipped out of his hands, to fool his opponent while in the middle of an NBA game, that truly makes this assist of the decade worthy.

[–] BackendSpecialist@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Saw the title and came in ready to go to war bout the title after what Derozan just did

[–] ChannelNeo@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Trae Young taking notes. You just know he's going to get it a couple times this season

[–] mathieforlife@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Nice

But I think Demar has assist of the year locked (come up with a new title cmon OP)

[–] theinvaderzimm@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

By far my favorite.

[–] fawkesmulder@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Derozan is the ast of the year, cool play though intentional or not

[–] weirdworksagain@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

This was cool and all but Demar had the best assist I can remember just a couple days ago. Might be the best assist of all time in my opinion.

[–] German_Irish_chicken@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Demar's was better

[–] Desperate-Sport-3713@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

That was 100% intentional, I see some of you have never played in a real streetball game

[–] Js_On_My_Yeet@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

I just don't get how Beasley suddenly started draining 3s effortlessly after leaving the Lakers. Wtf is this shit?!
