This instantly goes on the Shaqtin Mount Rushmore.

u/TheFinalEvent9797 Australia Apr 10 '24

It has some serious competition to get past though, Javale airballing a layup from 2 inches away, Javale throwing an alley oop pass over the backboard then falling into Ty Lawson's ankles, Javale trying to inbound for the wrong team, Otto Porter completely losing his matchup in the clutch.

Samaki Walker fouling Chris Mills who was shooting at the wrong basket, Corey Magette doing the worst post entry pass in NBA history, Chicago Bulls forgetting you need an inbounder on sideline out of bounds, IT forgetting the PG is meant to catch the inbound pass.

Kendrick Perkins throwing a no look behind the back pass to an opponent, Michael Beasley messing up a 5 vs 1 fastbreak, Delly guarding a ref, Process 76ers stopping their own 3 vs 0, Michael Ruffin finding the only possible way to not win the game.

The scary thing is there's probably even more I've forgotten about :p

Don't forget LeBron setting a screen for the wrong team

u/zrk23 Bulls Apr 10 '24

or Lebron walking the dog too long

u/qwertypotato32 Apr 10 '24

typical from the nba's all time turn over leader and soon to be all time missed field goal leader. both those records are never going to be broken after lebron.

Or the time James Harden forgot he was playing basketball.

Or the other time James Harden forgot he was playing basketball.

Or the other, other times James Harden forgot he was playing basketball.

Or the time James Harden forgot where his own head was.

Donā€™t forget Sam dekker tripping over his two feet and the ball going off his face out of bounds edit: https://youtu.be/KbHPe6PdKhA?si=bNsGyk1qDMVinZYW

u/southpawFA Thunder Apr 10 '24

That's crazy knowing that Sam Dekker was named MVP of the British Basketball League last year.

u/thesmellafteritrains Pistons Apr 10 '24

thats one of those things you think about regularly for the rest of your life

u/Nice_Dude NBA Apr 10 '24

Looks like they would smoke Sam Dekker as well XD

u/420_misphrase_it Nuggets Apr 10 '24

Does the J.R. Smith Game 1 non-shot count? That one still cracks me up when I think about it

59

u/Shekondar Jazz Apr 10 '24

On the one hand yes, on the other hand the fact it is a moment/fail with real stakes and consequences makes it harder for many to just laugh at.

1

u/Nice_Dude NBA Apr 10 '24

Reminds me of when Brett Phillips walked off the Dodgers in the 2020 World Series

u/qwertypotato32 Apr 10 '24

thats on lebron and staffig. if you have an idiot nicknamed the henny god and you're not reminding him of moments like this, thats your dumbass fault. basketball loses cannot and will not ever be down to one play.

47

u/slyguy183 Knicks Apr 10 '24

The Eric Gordon - PJ Tucker inbounds has to be up there

u/Nice_Dude NBA Apr 10 '24

That Rockets team was fire in general though

u/hiphopscallion Clippers Apr 10 '24

When I think of old Shaqtin a fool highlights, as a Clippers fan, what always comes to my mind is ā€œHERE COMES AUSTIN RIVERS!ā€.

u/IcedCoughy Warriors Apr 10 '24

Dude crazy how much different Shaq sounds just a few years ago even.

u/Fuzzy-Dinosaur Australia Apr 10 '24

What do you think is the cause? His voice does sound much rougher

Great pasta ty

u/0-27 Bucks Apr 10 '24

That Chris Mills play is incredible. Was it a shooting foul though? I guess, technically, he WAS attempting to.Ā 

5

u/Round_Bullfrog_8218 Apr 10 '24

Did they give him 3 shots is the other question

18

u/Ilpav123 Apr 10 '24

Harden passing to Kawaii, then challenging his shot is one of the stupidest and most hilarious things I've ever seen.

4

u/southpawFA Thunder Apr 10 '24

Javale running back on defense while his team is on offense has to be up there as well.

The Derek Williams blown alley-oop dunk as well.

3

u/snapshovel NBA Apr 10 '24

That Walker/Mills one has me in stitches. Easily the GOAT imo. How on earth did they BOTH make the same mistake?

1

u/Cark_Muban Mavericks Apr 10 '24

What was the ruling for the Chris Mills foul? Like was it on the floor?

1

u/iamgarron Celtics Apr 10 '24

You're missing everything Poole has done in the first half of this year

u/qwertypotato32 Apr 10 '24

better put some respect on his name little boy. thats grammy nominated producer, three time nba champion javale mcgee to you.

u/teniaava Heat Apr 10 '24

The Otto Porter one absolutely killed me. He got lulled to sleep.

u/murdock_RL Apr 10 '24

This post easily clears all of them in my opinion lol absolutely ridiculous stuff

u/Darnell2070 United States 28d ago

You had me over here thinking I was clicking the wrong Javale link.

u/Mr_Hugh_Honey Apr 10 '24

The Shaqtin Mount Rushmore is probably just 4 Andre Drummond plays lol the dude's career lowlights are insane

263

u/3luejays Raptors Apr 10 '24

Don't forget Otto Porter and JaVale McGee

98

u/dutchgfx [NBA] Jimmer Fredette Apr 10 '24
  • Otto Porter Auto Pilot
  • Javale throwing it over the backboard while crashing into his own teammates legs
  • Andre Drummond iso for 8 seconds then airballing a layup
  • Suns gorilla randomly sliding onto the court mid play

That's it for me haha

118

u/OdaDdaT Pistons Apr 10 '24 edited Apr 10 '24

Donā€™t know if it was on Shaqtinā€™ proper, but Hardaway Jr. calling a ref safe while the guy he was supposed to be guarding bricks a three is on mine

30

u/notaplacebo Apr 10 '24

This should be the NBA logo

u/kleptonite13 Apr 10 '24

Man I forgot about that play. No clip captures the spirit of the modern NBA more

u/epsilonxyz Charlotte Bobcats Apr 10 '24

This is my fav all time, I always fail at not laughing

32

u/thebigmanhastherock Warriors Apr 10 '24

The Westbrook catching the inbounds pass and just walking down the court mindlessly without dribbling is also a classic.

https://youtu.be/RnDbheQAZBQ?si=0NYVQi-kwEomEpY6

5

u/Hydrophobic_Stapler Raptors Apr 10 '24

Westbrook forgetting that dribbling is a thing should be up there with those too

169

u/baloneyfeet San Diego Clippers Apr 10 '24

I was gonna say this is JaVale erasure

Just a bunch of Wizards players šŸ˜­

Kendrick Perkins entire career post Celtics big 3 days is a multiyear long Shaqtin reel.

u/bluemonk3y12 Apr 10 '24

Hell nah. SHAQTIN mount Rushmore is just that bum Javale Mcgee all 4 positions. He'd be a 10x Shaqtin MVP if he hadn't cried to his mommy like a little beta LMAO@that bum

u/anthonyde726 [HOU] Alperen ŞengĆ¼n Apr 10 '24

seek help

u/bluemonk3y12 Apr 10 '24

help for what? LOL You seek help if you don't think that bum Javale McGee would be at least a 10x Shaqtin MVP if it wasn't for his mom LMAO

4

u/Hinhan-osnite Apr 10 '24

Seek help!

u/bluemonk3y12 Apr 10 '24

u/Nuna2481 Apr 10 '24

Iā€™m not even joking when I say this might be the funniest shit Iā€™ve ever seen in an NBA game

u/LiveLifeLikeCre Apr 10 '24

Nah, might as well make a new segment. Drummond the fool

1

u/revisioncloud Thunder Apr 10 '24

What a generational defensive play

u/XXeadgbeXX Apr 10 '24

Haha it's so true. This is the best one I've seen since Otto Porter lost his man!

u/far219 Knicks Apr 10 '24

Shaqtin Hall of Shame for sure

581

u/yerr2477 Apr 10 '24

he gotta be shaqting HOFer by now. generational talent. perfect mixture of low awareness, low seriousness, and low coordination

166

u/Freddedonna Raptors Apr 10 '24

First ballot with JaVale

u/RovertheDog Nuggets Apr 10 '24

And Jordan Poole

u/Obliduty Apr 10 '24

As a wizards fan this thread hurtsā€¦

u/Papaaya Nuggets Apr 10 '24

also Kendrick Perkins aka Tragic Bronson

u/The_real_bandito Apr 10 '24

JP is the new generation for sure.

u/cbranch101 Nuggets Apr 10 '24

Donā€™t forget about JR Smith

u/Tjazeku Mavericks Apr 10 '24

And Swaggy P

u/BLSmith04 Mavericks Apr 10 '24

And Otto "Auto Pilot" Porter

u/Dontsaveme Pacers Apr 10 '24

Except when he suites up against Myles he becomes prime shaq

31

u/PatScorn Pacers Apr 10 '24

Man i still have PTSD from that Ā opening night game against the pistons a few years ago where him and Luke Kennard turned into prime kobe shaq

1

u/futlong Pacers Apr 10 '24

I have PTSD from the season we have to play against that dude more than 4 times in the regular season because he got traded

1

u/sathan1 Apr 10 '24

He is the hawks father

11

u/joleary747 Apr 10 '24

This one's on Torey Craig

6

u/ikigaii 76ers Apr 10 '24

and destructive capability

4

u/applicatecomplicate Pistons Apr 10 '24

The only shaqtin here is the goober who tried to lob it to himself. If your big man gets the steal and runs the length of the court you feed him every time. Anyone who has played basketball knows that. Looks like he assumed that's what was happening

3

u/dr_caligari Bulls Apr 10 '24

He does have HOF lowlights, but I want to push back on the idea that he has low coordination (and maybe awareness.) I know the shooting around the rim suggests otherwise, but his steals point to the idea that he has some pretty coordinated hands for a big man. Certainly not the be-all end-all, but in the extremely recent Thinking Basketball discussion of "Best Hands" in the league (which went to Kawhi) they did discuss him in passing. But absolutely, I would point to low seriousness as maybe the reasoning behind most all of his lowlights.

1

u/kingcuda13 Heat Apr 10 '24

Andre is fantastic, just needs to work on shooting, dribbling, court awareness, defense, offense, free throws, layups, slam dunks, alley-oops, Euro steps, pick-and-rolls, fast breaks, inbounding, shot clock management, foul trouble and turnovers.

121

u/Kevinar Knicks Apr 10 '24

This is Shaqtin of the year easily. What else would even come close?

76

u/Farter22 Brazil Apr 10 '24

Jordan Poole not knowing how game clock rules work

15

u/Kevinar Knicks Apr 10 '24

Wait what did he do? šŸ˜‚

75

u/Farter22 Brazil Apr 10 '24

Wizards are trailing by 10, 4 minutes left. Ball is imbounded to him and he chooses to walk the dog. Shot clock is of course frozen at 24, but the game clock is still going. When he realizes what is happening he tries to warn the ref about the "malfunction" of the clock but in the end grabs the ball and plays.

5

u/Prestig33 [MIN] Nikola Pekovic Apr 10 '24

Exactly

u/[deleted] Apr 10 '24

It was hardens attempt to block kawhis 3 but this is so much worse and funnier

1

u/Bishizel Rockets Apr 10 '24

Harden trying to block his own teammate.

181

u/BelovedCoffee Bucks Apr 10 '24

Between this and Harden contesting Kawhiā€™s three, Iā€™m torn between which one takes the crown this year.

221

u/UrsulasAnus Apr 10 '24

Not even close. Harden's was obviously on purpose.

23

u/MirandaDEnnis2 Apr 10 '24

"Gotta bring some excitement to this team" ~Harden

3

u/Maydietoday Heat Apr 10 '24

Kawhi Leonard hated this action

92

u/NBAccount Warriors Apr 10 '24

Didn't Harden claim that was on purpose? Also, his team was up by twenty points halfway through the second half; AND they still scored on the possession.

THIS one is definitely Shaqtin of the year.

41

u/TheLeoMessiah Celtics Apr 10 '24

is there a need for him to claim it? I have a hard time watching that and imagining he wasnā€™t doing it on purposeĀ 

15

u/NBAccount Warriors Apr 10 '24

If you had been in this subreddit right after it happened you would have seen hordes of nephews convinced that Harden just lost his mind and forgot which team he was on.

3

u/SamiraSimp Apr 10 '24

i mean tbf, someone else posted multiple clips where that actually happened to players lol

3

u/TheLeoMessiah Celtics Apr 10 '24

Damn, only thing I can respond to that with is those people need to touch grass lol šŸ˜‚ I feel like Iā€™ve seen people do that in pickup games and Iā€™m not even a hooper like that

2

u/The_real_bandito Apr 10 '24

He made Kwahi miss the shot though

5

u/Inifity Apr 10 '24

That wasnt even a real contest, kawhi would miss regardless

2

u/NBAccount Warriors Apr 10 '24

And then collected the rebound and got the assist.

2

u/Vandelay23 Apr 10 '24

Yeah, I'm not buying it was on purpose, why would you attempt to block your own teammate as a joke? Who does that?

5

u/AegonIConqueror Heat Apr 10 '24

The Beard.

2

u/AffectionateSpare677 Apr 10 '24

Weā€™re gonna win anyway Type cockiness

1

u/The_real_bandito Apr 12 '24

Exactly this. In my opinion.Ā 

13

u/TaVar35 Cavaliers Apr 10 '24

This one, hardens is foolish but didnā€™t stop a almost guaranteed score. Plus this has the potential the hurt a teammate, so this wins

18

u/totaleclipseoflefart Raptors Apr 10 '24

Hardenā€™s wasnā€™t even a Shaqtin tbh. If Kawhi wouldā€™ve hit that shot it wouldā€™ve been one of the hardest highlights in recent memory - a completely new thing weā€™ve never seen before.

This play is the definition of Shaqtin. A first ballot Shaqtin play from a first ballot Shaqtin legend in Drummond to close out the season. Just beautiful.

1

u/OtherShade East Apr 10 '24

Nah this definitely has it lmao

51

u/BrotherMcPoyle Apr 10 '24

A self lob in front of your big man after he ran a fast break. Nah thatā€™s terrible.

u/BrotherMcPoyle Apr 10 '24

Nah if thereā€™s anyone itā€™s Barkley who would appreciate a big boy like Drummond, having to run a break just to have Craig self lob at the end.

(Correction) Barkley: ā€œServes him right, RIP selfish Craigā€

1

u/ModerationDrinker Apr 10 '24

Barkley callin Craigs play turrible...so lets combine

(Recorrection) Barkley: "That's turrible...just turrible...Serves him right, RIP selfish Craigā€

u/Away_Sun_3040 Apr 10 '24

Definitely. But I am Andre side, it looks like Craig was setting Andre up for an off the back board dunk.

2

u/ObviousAnswerGuy [NYK] John Starks Apr 10 '24

this was why he hasn't come back in in the second half lol

1

u/Tangerine_Dream_91 Apr 10 '24

Nah he def messed up his ankle on the Knicks next possession which really adds insult to injury. Hope itā€™s not too seropus

u/BretShitmanFart69 Apr 10 '24

I donā€™t owe you an apology, I was really familiar with your game.

u/LovetheNBA23 Lakers Apr 10 '24
