No. 7: Lob for Jeff Green against the Suns (Dec. 6, 2015)

It’s time to leave your Jeff Green hate at the door for at least a few brief moments.

To be completely honest, this was a pretty meaningless game in the grand scheme of things. After all, the Grizzlies were playing a team whose best player was Eric Bledsoe. The Grizzlies are supposed to win games like this by ten points, not by two.

Nevertheless, it takes a special brand of athleticism and heroics to be able to pull off a play like this. Nothing brings strong emotion quite like an alley-oop dunk for the win at the buzzer.

It’s plays like this that make you remember them for a long time, even if they were not in extremely important games.
