'11-'12 Dunk Thread

Postby Doobie on Mon Dec 26, 2011 6:07 am

My favorite thread ever, we should add a poll at the end of the season to vote for dunk of the year. No highlight dunks from the Knicks/ Celts, but Shumpert also threw a facial down on Garnett. Posts any dunks that happen through the day!

From Pre-seaon and called for charge, but still a real superman style dunk

I still say he got screwed over by the NBA's sketchy charging foul rules. It's consistent with other charging calls but I don't care for defenders being rewarded for getting there at the last minute, especially when they're still moving into position while the offensive player is already in the air. Should've been an and one and it's something I'd like to see cleaned up in the rules, but it still makes for a cool clip at least.

You kinda have to call that a charge if you're going to insist on having the no-charge arc come halfway up the lane. They need to either adopt the college one, or adopt the FIBA rule.

That too, though if there are some conditions for defensive position established in the rules it would help a bit as well.

More from the last couple of days. First, a very unusual one and an unlucky break for LeBron.

Very nice. (Y) Weak technical on Wall though, that's no worse than what Larry Johnson was doing in the early 90s and the league even kind of celebrated it on one of their home videos at the time.

A few more from the past couple of days:

On a side note, apparently DeAndre Jordan was the only player to score all of his points in the paint last season. Can't argue with the results, I guess.

Bosh seems to be going to the rim a lot more this year, I like it.

Shawn Marion and Roddy B have good dunks today. Can't find it though, and it seems it's not on the NBA YT channel :(
