10 greatest signature moves in NBA history

#1 Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's Skyhook

The single most unstoppable (almost) move in NBA history. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar used the skyhook to devastating effect during his 20 years in the league. Virtually unblockable, the Skyhook enabled Jabbar to reach the top of the scoring charts in NBA history. Almost fittingly, the basket he scored to surpass Wilt Chamberlain's then record was with his signature move.

A lot of players use the hook shot, but Kareem's combination of size and technique was second to none. Standing at 7'2, with a 7'5 wingspan, he shot it at quite a distance from the defender and unlike some of the other bigs, Jabbar was more than capable of hitting it from mid-range.

While Kareem claims that no one has ever blocked the Skyhook, there are a couple of occasions when it has been, by Chamberlain and a few others. Blocking the Skyhook required precise timing, as if the defender was slightly early, he could just fake it and score with ease and if a little late, the ball would have gone past them before they could react. In 2 decades there are only like 4 occasions when the shot has been blocked which is just ridiculous.
