Arguably the best move in D.Wade's bag of tricks. Dudes have been biting on his pump fake for over a decade now despite the fact that it's circled and underlined on the scouting report.

Wade's Eurostep had defenders looking silly back in his prime. It's a treat whenever he uses it in transition.

The Produnova

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Produnova

it's a gymnastics vault jump in the women's event performed for the first time by Elena Produnova in 1999 (that's the one in the gif)and only a handful of girls have managed to land it and when they fail in competition, you think "you were this near of being chained to a wheel chair for the rest if your life".

when asked if she'd work on it, olympic champion Simon Biles said "are you mad? I don't wanna die!". very dangerous

I'm pretty sure that's the Screw Attack.

The Philippe Candeloro backflip (also performed by Surya Bonaly) was banned because it was too dangerous

Some of these are so slick, there's several good ones in a row at this timestamp but the whole clip is full of good ones.

Barry Sanders Swivel Hips - there's no cooldown, but a permanent -5 debuff to your offensive line.

Martial Arts the thread. I mean, that is fighting games IRL.

But all throw some hockey terms at you.

Open ice hit (because I want a Scott Stevens gif in here, and in his case could also be in the category of headshot, elbowing...)
