Last nights highlights could have been doubled with the amount of NBA action around the league. The Timberwolves' Jerryd Bayless starts of the countdown with a rim-rocking windmill dunk, followed by a get-that-out-here block from fellow teammate Ed Bavis in the same game...

The Denver Nuggets managed to retain their winning streak and extend it to 12 straight with last nights victory in Chicago against the Bulls in a controversial overtime battle. Although the Nuggets lead for the majority of the game, a poor defensive show out from the starting 5 and awful charity strip shooting allowed Chicago to stay in the game right down the finish...

The NBA Top 10 features the Atlanta Hawks, the Miami Heat & Lob City (the Los Angeles Clippers) taking 60% of the countdown. Miami's D-Wade had a slick behind-the-back post move into a beautiful floater, as well as a big stuff down from an alley oop pass. ...

With only 2 NBA games last night, the daily highlight reel is back down to 5. It begins with the New York Knicks' JR Smith lob to Kenyon Martin (who is currently on his 2nd 10-day contract with the Knicks, but with New York being down 3 big men, including Carmelo Anthony, he could be a full-fledged addition soon enough)...

For Carmelo Anthony's homecoming to the Pepsi Center last night, there were a mix of emotions... most of which, by the sound of the crowd, were negative. Anthony's trade caused quite the stir in the NBA,especially in Denver, the city where he was drafted to as the 3rd pick in round 1 in 2003...

Thursday's addition of the top 10 spotlights the much smaller Jrue Holiday of the Sixers' dunking on the ever present LeBron James. Other highlights include the Atlanta Hawks' Al Horford putting one down over LA Lakers' big man Antawn Jamison and Clippers' all-star guard Chris Paul grabbing a steal, barely staying inbound and finishing with the assist to fellow all-star teammate, Blake Griffin...

The Timberwolves' Chris Johnson owned the top 10 with 3 plays on the highlight reel. Johnson had a steal, a block and a monster dunk to master the NBA's top plays. Other highlights include the Brooklyn Nets' Brook Lopez dunking over his twin brother, Robin Lopez of the New Orleans' Hornets...

The top 10 today has a little something for everyone. Brooklyn Nets' Deron Williams hits his 10,000 point mark as well as adding a nice to the rack move on the Sixers. The Phoenix Suns' center Hamed Haddadi gets a nice dunk on the Denver Nuggets, who returned the favor with a Kenneth Faried block and a beautiful alley-oop dunk...

The Nuggets got a little payback on the Suns last night with a 108 - 93 victory in Phoenix. The Suns are 1 of 3 teams this season that have handed the Nuggets a loss at home. Starting center Kosta Koufos led the Nuggets out the gate by scoring the first 13 points...

The Miami Heat took charge of the daily top plays scoring 3 highlights. Dwayne Wade picked pockets at will, or so it seemed throughout the game as they defeat the Pacers 105-81. The Black Mamba, Kobe Bryant does what he does best as he helps propel the Lakers into playoff contendership as the current #8 seed on the west...

The Denver Nuggets are destroying teams left and right, especially at home in the Pepsi Center. With last nights 111-88 victory over the Minnesota Timberwolves, the mile high crew further extend their winning streak to 8 games, while simultaneously sharing the best home game winning record with the Miami Heat (28-3) so far this season...

Some very nice acrobatic feats on the this addition of the highlight reel. The Denver Nuggets make up 2 of the top 10, one coming from a great steal from Andre Miller and behind the back feed to Corey Brewer. Monta Ellis from the Milwaukee Bucks has a beautiful mid-air move, as does Jeff Teague of the Atlanta Hawks ...
