Meh, he stayed flat going for the charge - no big deal.

that could be the dunk of the year

That's a joke, right? What was good about it? Literally the only thing positive was the distance, which you can find a dozen farther/better dunks easily. Someone trying to take a charge underneath adds very little for me.

he went down after the dunk. The dude basically jumped over a 7 footer. Look at the bulls bench reaction and that will tell you the story

What dunk are you watching? His waist doesn't get above Markkanen's neck. This happens all the time, someone goes for a big dunk and the defender tries to slide in for the charge. The defender gets knocked down by the dunk. Also, literally no one moves on the Bulls bench, so I'm not sure what you mean by that. But even if they did, I don't judge dunks on bench reactions. They react all the time, and the difference between a really good and truly great dunk aren't noticeable.

I'm just remembering that you're a big Nets fan, so I'll forgive your terrible take on this one.

yes I am a nets fan which is the only reason I was watching the game, but I watch tons of NBA and this is up there with any dunk this year. I dont know how in tuned you are with NBA social media but everyone (not just nets fans) is going crazy from this dunk not just me.

You can put anything you want on a tshirt. Doesn't make it a great dunk.

That's all you got? There are countless dunks that get both team's benches out of there seat. An open mouthed stare is nothing.

OK I had to google the dunk to see what all the noise is about. Anyone that thinks is the dunk of the year I got a bridge to sell them.

Don't watch much basketball lately. Pretty soon they are all going to be wearing skirts instead of shorts.

I guess you haven't seen much NFL recently either?

Nowhere near the same. Hockey the same way but not on the same level as the NBA.

Wow I think the cavs can beat the west this year! They played awesome tonight! And it looks like they're gonna get the #1 pick too. And Jordan is one of the worst players ever (Mike, not Clarkson)

Mike was in a different era, players back then just weren't as talented as today. He was good, for his era...
