4) Javale McGee

Javale “Mr. Shaqtin a Fool” McGee was one of the craziest personalities to ever step foot on any basketball court. If you take a look at his NBA basketball resume you will see the following accomplishments. He has a triple double in which he purposely shot on his own basket to earn a triple-double. He took a jump-shot that was followed by an offensive rebound, but he sprinted down the court to get back on defense. He has more goal-tending shot blocks than Draymond Green has technical fouls! Javale McGee was and is a walking SportsCenter Not Top 10 highlight reel.

One of my favorite (yet extremely frustrating) McGee trademarks was the Javale McGee fast break.

One play in particular occurred against the Indiana Pacers. McGee gathered control of the ball and made a smooth wrap around dribble behind his back. As he made his way across half-court, he noticeably begins to stumble. As he falls he tries to throw an alley-oop to Kenneth Faried, and the ball sails into the crowd.

Sadly, most of Nuggets Nation became used to these bonehead plays, hoping the great plays would outweigh these ones.
