Im from New Zealand, this is an old old clip from the New Zealand basketball league in the
80's, I think its the greatest play in NZ basketball history.

Every young player should watch this, because it shows heart and commitment.

One of the players is the dad of Kendrick Perkins.

Fast forward to 20 seconds in for the play.

1. Where?

What am I missing? I saw nothing special.

2. The red team made a bunch of diving plays on defense to steal the ball

When they took possession they moved up court for a big shot is what it looks like to me. The effort on defense is probably what's notable about it.

3. Scramble

I saw a bunch of guys going for a loose ball. Happens every game.

I saw a pull up 3 pointer. KD did that twice in the playoffs. Over the King even.

4. There isn't a lot of variety that is why the slam dunk contest is boring when it used to be exciting

Situational basketball usually makes something a big play. To me it possibly looked like it was a end game situation but I really don't know.

5. I was at that game

The teams are the biggest rivals in NZ basketball history.

The red team (the home team) was down 26 points in the second half if I
remember correctly.

The play it self was incredible, players throwing their bodies on the floor
for a loose ball.

This was a regular season game.

The team in red went on to win the championship.

I guess I am bias because its my team and one of my great basketball memories.
