A nice dunk [video]

The title of this video is “White Guy Dunks ALL OVER Two People!!!” which is pretty comical by itself.

Good to see Brandon Jennings is spending the lockout playing on the “And1″ tour.

Somebody please stop the ball.

Yes, he steps out of bounds, but still…

Top 10 Dunkers of the Class of 2011 [video]

With the NBA in a lockout, it’s not a bad time to look at the incoming college freshman. These 10 guys can dunk. I hope they can, you know, shoot, dribble, pass, rebound and play defense too. Those things are also important.

Shaquille Johnson’s highlight reel [video]

Shaquille Johnson is heading into his senior year, but he’s dunking like a pro. Let’s hope the rest of his game is just as good…

Taj Gibson’s dunk on Wade in super slo mo [video]

This is pretty awesome, outside of the failed chest bump/high five with Omer Asik after the dunk.

Taj Gibson throws down…twice. [video]

John Paulsen — Mon, 16 May 2011 13:55:06 +0000

I’ve seen dunks as good or better than what Taj Gibson had against the Heat, but I’m not sure I’ve seen a single player have TWO dunks of this magnitude in a single game before. I’m sure it has happened — but maybe not in a game of this magnitude.

First, Gibson posterized Dwyane Wade:

Then he followed up a C.J. Watson missed to hammer home his point:

Granted, that second dunk came when the game was basically over and both teams had cleared their benches…but still.

At what point does Gibson’s play (nine points, seven rebounds, two assists and two blocks) make the Bulls regret signing Carlos Boozer to a huge contract?
