My favorite part is how many of these players are complete hypocrites. They have no problem doing it themself but if somebody does it to their team then it’s disrespectful and uncalled for

The easiest solution to not feeling disrespected by a score when you're down 15 is to not be down 15.

I think the flashy dunks probably add more insult to injury than like a lazy meaningless layup or a three, but I understand them more. It's an entertainment sport. Fans came to watch a good game. If they get a windmill dunk out of a blowout, that's a good thing. There might be some kid at the only basketball game they'll ever see in their life and they might get to see something spectacular.

It’s the other way around for me: I feel respected when an enemy team plays their hardest until the game ends even if I’m losing by a lot. I feel disrespected when someone goes easy on me because they are winning by a lot.

“I love it but this is manufactured anger” truer words have never been spoken

the Lance Stephenson one is always so hilarious... bro scores a wide open layup and proceeds to get mauled by five other emotional grown men

*"Classless act...."* 2:53 Uh no.... THIS IS LITERALLY HIS CLASS. He is paid to do this, nobody paid to see a 10 minute 4th quarter just because we already know who won. Play the freaking game. It's the same problem in every sport. Why have regulation if you aren't allowed to play the same way during the whole game (including up to the end)!?

The way Lance handled that will always be my favorite. Bro was trolling them so hard.

Not shooting before the game ends is the worst unspoken rule Also I do play basketball competitively

Never understood why the rule of not scoring in the final minute evolved. Just play to the final whistle like every other sport.

2:20 I don't get it? *What did they do wrong?* You played bad defense, the game is still going, you're getting paid millions. What a bunch of grown up babies!

The more "unwritten" rules your sport has, the more emotionally stunted your players are.

imagine getting physically violent because somebody took a shot at the end of a basketball game 😂

Dame doin it to Chicago (2:05) is okay but then he gets salty when CP3 does it to him (3:43)💀

The one with D Wade was the perfect way to handle this. Otherwise, I really have no problem with playing till the buzzer sounds regardless if it's a blowout or not

I love the NBA but this is the only part that sucks about the sport - they all give up on the game sometimes 10 minutes before it's all over - in other sports they will fight tooth and nail until the last second, even if there's no chance they will make a chance, they will drag themselves closer. And it's so dumb because all it takes is a couple of stops and a few 3's to drop and a lead can be erased - and these players all know this from experience.

Acting tough at the end of the game Hahaha Where was that energy in the 4th Qtr my guys?

Clyde Frazier summed it up perfectly at the end "You're here to play the Game!". As long as there's time on the clock I'm shooting at the Basket. Especially if I'm winning a blowout at home I'm getting out the fancy stuff to celebrate. NBA is about entertainment just as much as it is about the Sport. Give the Fans what they paid for.

7:20 Jeff Teague slowly entering the frame is just hilarious after hearing the story on his podcast

I love how CP3 gets mad at Zion when he scores at the end of the game but did the same thing 😂

Ok the Zion dunk is the CLEANEST windmill you’ve ever seen

I actually love when players take a shot before time runs out, even if the game is a blowout

You can see turner saying “I’m sorry I feel bad I’m sorry” 😂

I love when unwritten rules get broken. Do one for football, baseball, etc.

Someone should have told Reggie Miller this. How dare he score 8 points in ten seconds to win the game at the end of a game that was finished...

Is it just me or does getting upset at the opposing team scoring when they already won just seems like a hurt-ego tantrum? The only people getting upset are the losing team. They likely wouldn’t care if they were winning. And the game doesn’t end until the clock runs out. It’s like they’re trying to put people down for winning, which is the definition of a sore loser

That shove by Morris was Ja’s villain origin story

They not mad that they took a shot... they mad that they got their ass beat

Imagine literally any other sports like soccer if you scored at the end of a blow out and the losing team tried to fight you because of it imagine how stupid that would look

Most of these are just guys being sore losers lol, kyrie throwing the ball into the stands was hilarious

Love the ref hightailing it over at 2:34 cuz he knows some shit might go down

3:53 “No more State Farm commercials for those two” 🤣🤣🤣

Eric Collins sounded like his $200k student loan debt was all forgiven when Lamelo hit that three😂😂😂

Its crazy to me how the Losing team has all this energy after the game but didnt use it to prevent a blow out smh

the way Jamal Murray looked at Kyrie! Like Ky, u should have converted that energy into point, prolly would have won 😂

4:18 that dribble is so clean, very reminiscent of how a soccer defender would act if the same happened to him. No unwritten rule broken especially not in the 3rd quarter, get mixed Ariza.

6:55 Tf was that goofy ass square up 💀 Bro had no intention to go for a punch but still felt he needed to "act tough"

If you can't guard them for 47:30 don't get mad at during the last 30 seconds

Just wanted to say you have the best basketball edits on UKposts, thank you!

1:30 bruh the hornets announcer shouldn’t be THAT excited to win one game😂

man that ricky davis one at 5:28 to get the triple double always has me howling 🤣🤣🤣

the moment Ja knew he needed a gun 7:36 💀

Whenever D Wade get his statue outside of Miami stadium, it should be him standing on the ball just like that @3:13 💯💯

Was at the Jazz/Timberwolves game. Jazz fans were cheering for Rudy most the night even when we was scoring points against the Jazz but ended the night booing him and only him

Great video, my favorite is when bell on the warriors dunks it. Kd and Steph are utterly flabbergasted about it lol.

I wish I knew what these unwritten rules were. I just see people playing the game while there is time on the clock while a bunch of people stand around expecting it to be over when it's not.

Lmaooo dame embarrassed tf out of hisself at 3:45

Respect to Steph at 4:55

I like how the refs didn’t even call wade for the kick ball violation they were just like “Yea, for Sacramento’s sake we’re letting the clock run out.”

0:58 I’m so confused on what he did wrong lol. The game still had over 2 minutes left it wasn’t like he did it when there was 5 seconds left

Man Morris Sr Pushed Ja Morant So Hard Lil Dude Ran And Got Behind His Team😂😂

The last clip - minute remaining. Commentator “the game is over”. What should they have done? Made 3 24 sec fouls? 😂😂

Giannis just wanted his triple double 😂

Honestly, if you’re that mad, don’t get blown out, I know it happens to the best but it happens less to the better teams. Use that unreleased emotion to land some shots and play better defense and maybe you wouldn’t be on the losing end, every time I got mad at a winner I remembered this. I understand there’s an unwritten rule but the only reason they're acting on it is embarrassment, hence why there’s a lot of hypocrisy.

In the immortal words of some Russian hockey player: "Is only game! Why you haf be mad?"

If this were to happen and I'm in it, I'll just lie on the floor laughing my ass lmfao

“Jared Dudley does just the right thing by clobbering this guy” 😂😂😂

Game isn't over until it's over

3:22 d Wade did the exact right thing there

Love how these guys INSTANTLY get mad at someone else for the same thing they already did lol.

5:58 zion's greatest ever play to date

There are a lot of “unwritten rules” in certain sports. Still, I would rather deal with an NBA player making an extra basket that CAN’T HURT anyone than the STUPID ones in baseball. Deliberately throwing at a batter if it was done by the opposing pitcher, benches emptying to “protect” a player and other stuff.

It’s the fact Evans missed it😂😂😂

Okay that Evan Turner dunk was lowkey 🔥🔥

Rivalries but they get increasingly more violent.

day 3 of asking for travels but they get increasingly more outrageous

The worst of these by far is pretending to shake someone’s hand and then stealing the ball

If you can't score in the remaining minutes because your lead is "too large", what is the point of being on the court? To stand around like a bunch of clowns? Either the rules need to be changed so the captain of the opposition team can call the game over early (and accept the loss) or teams play properly until the game is over.

It hilarious that the sun's were trying to score even though the game was over and they missed it but got mad at zion when he 360 dunked

As an athlete you're taught your ENTIRE LIFE to play till the whistle. Why would the highest league be any different? Bunch of Karen's 😂😂😂

It’s so funny seeing dame do it then get mad at cp3 for doing it later in the video lmfao

I watch Lebron tossing the water bottle in the air and to the playing floor and remember his “I never cheat the game” . Wtf!

That dunk by Zion was hard

Unwritten rules are so petty in thr NBA. Like the game is over when the time is up, I don't care if your team is up 100 with 5 secs left, shoot the damn shot. I paid to see basketball, play until the end.

Coach always says "Play til the whistle" /"The game aint over til its over". Somehow that goes out the window at the professional level?

I remember Bird nailing his 4th 3 pointer with no time left to end the game. And walked off the court

My man, Jerry Sloan! Keepin’ it old school and real. RIP.

Stevenson got balls for that. Couldn’t have done it against a scarier lineup (derozan, tucker, ibaka, demarre carrol)

''16 str8 loses on the road, HISTORY'' Lmaooo im sooooo dead

5:30 Jerry Sloan had been coaching basketball for 40 years but that left his mouth gaping

Love how Ja thought he was bout to do something when Jae got pushed but didn’t do anything when you did at 7:39

The Caron Butler one is hilarious 😂😂

"no more state farm commercials for those two" 😂😂😂

Someone explain to me how taking an extra shot at the end of the 4th is classless? It shouldn't matter if you're up by a HUNDRED - if you still have time on the clock, you can still shoot. If the other team WANTS to be demoralized by you instead of stopping you, then LET them feel ashamed. It's not your fault that you're good.

i love at 5:05 when saric hits the layup/dunk at the buzzer and JJ and Joel simultaneously toss up their hands like "dude, what are you thinking?"

NBA Coach Ejections but they get increasingly more crazier

Mannnn, T-Mac scored like 13pts in 10secs one game. Damn that rule! It's over when the buzzer goes off. The fans LOVE this shit...That Zion dunk was LIT TF UP

Also, I "sort of" understand why a losing team may feel disrespected when their opponents attempt to score in the final seconds, but for the life of me I cannot comprehend why a WINNING TEAM would give a fuck if their opponents try to make one more basket. I mean, seriously, what the fuck was that shit in the Houston-Utah game at 06:34???

This "unspoken rule" doesn't sit right with me. If I saw my that opponents stopped trying I would get way more mad, being treated like a sensitive child while being at the top of any league woud really be like stepping an insult towards my pride as a player.

my philosophy on this has always been if you don't want the score run up, play better. the winning team earned the right to run it up.

Every other sport: Play to the bell/whistle/the ref shoves you off the guy Baseball/basketball: Literal fistfights if you try to score when you're ahead late.

That Zion dunk on PHX was fully justified.

All these “unwritten” rules are nothing more than grown men being babies and not being able to emotionally handle the fact that they lost.

6:53 My life would've flashed before my eyes if I saw him swinging at me like that

Nah that Caron Butler one was hilarious 😂

Lamelo is that kind of 13yo kid on the playground playing against 6yo children laughing at them for being bad.

Good way to start a Saturday morning! 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾

Y'all should go see "Titanic Submarine Memes But They Get Increasingly More Offensive" 😂 You're welcome

The game is over when the clock reads 0.00

350 is the best announcer line in this video
