    I saw that unbelievable shot by Yao (my jaw dropped). Amazing shot.

    Less amazing and more lucky. It was his left hand too...but yes. Mostly luck.

    It can be lucky and still amazing. And yes, it was luck.

    It wasn't really luck. Luck is when an opponent accidentally tips in a shot for you, or when you're throwing an alley-oop, but it goes straight in the basket for three points. I mean he was close to the basket and knew he just had to get the ball up on the rim for it to have a chance to go in. He did that, and it did. Sure, it was a good bounce, but it was good awareness by Yao, and it was a pretty quick and accurate reaction. It was a good play.

    On the top ten video, the commentator says that Yao's basket didn't count. You would think they have people watching these games.

    technically where shot that goes in can be called a lucky shot. If not lucky, it will bounce out. :D

    the top ten assumed it count. it was in the recap where the commentator said it didnt count. looks like they corrected otherwise it would be a top 10 shot.

    I can't get the videos to play on the nba website? Do I need to update Flash player or something to watch them? I can watch youtube videos no problem so I dunno what the problem is.

    They work for me in Firefox and Chrome. Chrome is still beta, so make sure you have the latest beta version.
