I hate to say it, but a lot of these publicity stills and dunk contest shots just don't do it for me as classic basketball photos. Game time is where classic hoops happens.

Holy shit this goddamn fucking iPad has now swallowed two posts of varying lengths where I rhapsodize about the red paint background VC pic, complain that more nba photogs should use off camera flashes, and shame the op for not using this extra classic Oscar photo to start things off (68):

That's only classic if you know that it is a photo of a three-pointer taken with under 0.9 seconds left, to decide a super-close playoff series, and it went in, making the final score 99-98, thus taking the series 4-2. Otherwise, it's only a middling interesting photo.

I think the lillard shot is cool as shit even without the context. I like the composition a lot, the way the figures are positioned/space, there's an intensity and tension to it, and I like how the most important action is in the corner and understated. I'm sure I'm reading into it, but something about the photo itself *feels* like photo of a potentially gamewinning shot.
