Greatest crossover ever by a PF

bjjs · 01-12-2010, 09:10 AM

I can't find a clip of it, but that crossover Bosh laid down on AJ Price, was maybe the greatest crossover ever by a big man.

A PF, completely shaking a PG on a ankle high dribble.

It was disgusting.

**'trane** · 01-12-2010, 09:12 AM

agreed. i scared the crap out of my dog and woke up my baby hollering after that play. i've never seen anything like that from a big man.

**fancylad** · 01-12-2010, 09:13 AM

just pisses me off that the rest of team couldn't do that crossover justice - the justice it deserved.

**Belsius** · 01-12-2010, 09:15 AM

It was awesome, if he had scored in that play it would have a top 10 play of the year.

are you kidding me?

YouTube - Matt Bonner crosses Madsen

obviously Bosh comes in 2nd

btw the alley oop from Turk to DeMar is pretty you tube worthy as well

As nice as it was, it was a bit of a fluke. He was bobbling the ball and was desperately slapping at it to regain control.
It looked great, but I doubt it's something he'll be adding to his arsenal.

**INSIDER** · 01-12-2010, 09:20 AM

am i the only one who thought it was flooky... it just seemed like a lucky move to me, like Bosh just panicked because he was losing control of his dribble - and just slapped the ball back over to his other hand - and without planning that move ended up blowing by Price. And when he regained control he realized he blew by him and had an open path to the basket.
but thats just me.

while that may indeed be true, few big men have the hands to make a play like that happen. still remarkable, imo.

I didn't see much of the game, but I though he crossed over Watson.

bjjs · 01-12-2010, 09:30 AM

From what I remember he was fighting for a loose ball in the corner, which probably helped him fake out AJ Price, since the situation went from loose ball, to ankle breaking crossover in the blink of an eye.

Yeah. I think Watson was involved in the play. But I think Watson was the one who fouled him on the attempt at the dunk.

The European crossover is good once in a blue moon, but try it more than once in a game and it's a turnover.

I yelled my head off too when Bosh did that. lol.

As much as the last 2 games have hurt Bosh has provided 2 "Highlight of the Year" plays....

1) His dunk over Shelden Williams

2) That crossover last night

The last time I saw a baseline crossover like that (from a big player) it was 1998 and Grant Hill was in his prime.

**INSIDER** · 01-12-2010, 04:15 PM

i made more noise when Wright hit that 3/4 court buzzer beater.
that was cool.

i think i would have went bananas had Bosh slammed that over watson though.
how did he not?

Bosh always misses his dunks even if he draws the smallest bit of contact.

he did a pretty nice cross over against boston too:

ps - dunk of the night, Raptors >

Makes him even more of a versatile forward.

Who has the better arsenal of skills? Duncan, Dirk, Marion or Bosh?
