Gary Payton to Shawn Kemp may have been the greatest alley-oop combination ever.
There are combos who will make a run at them (Chris Paul and Blake Griffin) but Payton to Kemp is the gold standard. With Payton going into the Hall of Fame this weekend, NBA.com put together a video of the 10 best Payton to Kemp alley-oops.
Enjoy.
