August. About two months after the 2015-2015 basketball season ended and about two months until the 2016-2017 season begins. Sure, we get a few Olympic games to tie us over this year. (A record 46 NBA players will be taking part in the Rio Games. 12 for the US, including Kevin Durant, Carmelo Anthony, DeMarcus Cousins, Kyle Lowry an Draymond Green.)

In this basketball doldrum, it is the perfect time to look back on this past season and celebrate just a few moments that are, frankly, awesome! (Special thanks to DunkStorm2K)

Here are ten of the most amazing shots of the past year!
