WOW!!!!!!!!!!!

(used up my quota of Whoa's)



That is just ridiculous... I don't think a Dunk has ever caused my jaw to drop... this one did.

It's just not as exciting when a guy almost 7 foot dunks on a hoop. He's a great athlete but when Vince Carter used to do things like that there was more of a wow factor for me.

This one probably bumped one of the other 800 dunks from last night from the Sportcenter highlights.

This will be the top play on sportscenter top 10 which is ridiculous. This was so much easier than a lot of the top plays that usually come in behind it. Like Lebron's dunk being the top play yesterday over a guy who did a front flip on a snowmobile. I am sorry but there is nothing you could do on a basketball court that deserves being ahead of a guy flipping a snowmobile. Just another reason I dislike basketaball, these guys do things that you should expect out of tall people and get praised for it.

hahaha I'm with you. I am a hockey guy so I always see these ridiculous plays as like #9 or something and then somebody dunking over somebody else is always #'s 2 and 1. If it happens that often, why is it considered special?

I'm with you for the most part... but, IMO, that one was pretty damn impressive, mostly because he threw the ball through with the velocity of a Randy Johnson fastball... the whole thing just sounded violent.

Yea this was better than most, but it still doesn't diminish my frustration

My twitter exploded last night.

This would be impressive if he actually dunked it. The ball was already through the hoop by the time his finger grazed the rim. I'll take a jumper at the buzzer with a hand in the face over this every day.

After he had already thrown the ball. Look at the 27 second mark. The ball is already coming out of his hand and he isn't anywhere near the hoop.

To me, this is the equivalent of an NFL player trying to make a 1 handed catch when they can easily get both hands to the ball. It looks good, but when he drops the pass or throws the ball off the back of the rim, you realize it was an unnecessary risk to try and make a play look better than it was.

I guess you were hoping for one of the many "one-timers" to make the list?

One upped Blake Griffin...

That player was in the perfect position to take a charge only move his left foot for no reason at all. Now he has a highlight dunk against him instead.

In the defender's defense... who the hell expects to have someone throw down a MJ Space Jam stretch dunk on them?

A person who keeps their feet steady as a good defenseman would in that situation. It would end the "attack" early.

They play defense in the NBA?

It wasn't the NBA.

Blake Griffin is an unathletic version of Shawn Kemp. That just tells you what an amazing athlete Shawn Kemp was.

One of the best dunks ever!! Over 7 foot Alton Lister in a playoff game. The finger point at the end is fantastic!

Yes, I'd rather see the play that requires the most skill to execute.

Does NBC Sports have something similar to SportsCenter? - Or maybe you are going to have to watch the NHL channel, but you might be in the minority on that one.

I am not sure I would categorize Blake Griffin as an "unathletic version" of anything. He may be less dependent on his athletism, but I just wouldn't use that word to help describe Griffin.

No argument from me that I am in the minority, just layin the facts out there.
