    Guys, check the top10 amazing plays of january on nba.com.
    Number 2 holds D-Wade with nice reverse.
    Though, is it just me or he hits himself with another arm on the shooting one for a whistle?

    I don't think so. A lot of people I've played with in the past would hit themselves on the wrist when throwing up a blind reverse layup. I guess I never understood why they did it, but I've always thought of it as pretty normal.

    Tracy does it a lot too.

    I never understood. It's probably to control momentum of the ball so that it doesn't go over the rim.

    BTW Stackhouse traveled on that play. I hate the mavericks.
