this thread is past due. i suspect it will quickly emerge as the most popular thread in wtf history and soon "official dunk appreciation thread" appreciation threads will spring up all over the internet.

this one got me laughing pretty good.

BieL_YOzQkI


do you think this was the night that convinced him to abuse drugs? hmmm, poor taste by me.

I thought it was in poor taste to invite him.

4bAkaSw_sYY

the dunk comes 10 seconds in, from dr. dunkenstein himself.

I thought it was in poor taste to invite him.

just because your addicted to narcotics doesnt mean your not more than welcome in the official dunk thread.

I meant to the Dunk Contest.

i know the announcer is speaking turkish on that second clip, but its from a regular season game last year. The fans in the stadium got so excited over his dunk that the game was immidiatly ended. the jazz got credited for two wins.

Of all the dumb statistics out there, people actually keep count of who's leading the NBA in dunks.

by popular demand, a flip murray tribute.

uhhh, i set up links, but for some reason those dip shits at youtue only have 2flip murray dunks. so the next 2 are emerson murray, and the last one, the white guy, is some dude named garreth murray. gareth murray is not flip murray, and i dont think emerson is either.

diddy, I gots a request for you:

since you love dunks and all, go find Tayshaun's dunk in '04 to beat the Bobcats (the game right after the brawl).

some of you clowns might need a reminder

you might also note when all those dunks occurred (hint, not some meaningless january game).

funny, while i was putting together a dunk shrine for TP, you posted this. im not sure i can find that dunk, but ill give it my best.

Actually, I believe that move on LeBron was in a meaningless late season game.

Either way...

XOA5OsP36YU

this one?

Nope, the one I'm talking about was in '04. They were down like 1 I think, and he just ran right down the middle and flushed it home.

Is that the one where Blaha yells, "HE TOMAHAWKS IT!"?

Of all the dumb statistics out there, people actually keep count of who's leading the NBA in dunks.

Is there a "missed dunks" stat?

Max has to be right there at the top.

Maybe Darko, too.

And Rudy Gay.

You know, I'm not a big Gay guy...

Is that the one where Blaha yells, "HE TOMAHAWKS IT!"?

I think the game was on FSN, so it was Fred creaming himself over it.

But speaking of Blaha, I like Kelser and all...but does anyone else miss Blaha/Laimbeer? If you say no, I hate you.

I don't miss Laimbeer one bit.

Terrordome, The Mailman?

Sure. I feel like making fun of Zekyl some more.

I'll use this as the place to say that Dwight Howard still has the most underrated Dunk ever.

i know hill go posterized, but you gotta give him credit for being willing to get his nose dirty and play some blue collar old school defense. most guys would have been running in the other direction in that situation. hill forced the refs to make a tough call.

i like this one because john "how come i never got a nickname?" stockton breaks it down before hand.

ps: not to derail my own thread, but how come stockton never got a nickname? couldnt he atleast have been something like john "the guy who puts together the mail at the post office so the mailman can deliver it" stockton?

2 Reasons:

1) Because there are no good "assist" nicknames.
2) Mormons are uncreative.

qf4H3OR-7IE

How in the hell is his dunk in the olympics over the French dude NOT in there?

Kemp - Man, its amazing what drugs can do to derail your career when you rely entirely on athleticism.

People forget how sick Kemp used to be.

I thought

For like 3 days I've been trying to post something like "kemp's 9, 8, and 7 dunks are just sick" but everytime I keep watching and am like "damn, 5's pretty good too....and 4...etc, etc...". His entire top ten is just unreal.

Payton's hair in 8 is great though, I must say.

Top 10 dunks on Ben Wallace:

^lol at ty chandler #8. he cant dunk a donut in coffee and he made ben's list as a rookie?

i stole that dunk a donut in coffee line.

Kobe's should've been #1.

vince carter is a golden god.

Not only does LBJ dunk over 3-4 people, he elbows Dirk in the face on the way down.

lF7h3VZ3ZFI

That highlight should have ended with him throwing it off his own backboard for a rebound.

lol, Bob Sura did that once.

The music is horrible but the look on jerry sloan's face makes up for it.

What the hell is that crap at the end?

Insert LeBron dunk off the West lob in game 1 here.

http://www.detroitbadboys.com/images/freeamir-180.gif

Oh hell yes!!!

Would you mind if I claimed that as my avatar?

Knock yourself out! I just saw it somewhere else, and make no personal claim to it.

It looked cool as hell and had a dunk, and that was enough for me to post here.

A play on the "Free Darko" thing it appears.

I'm waiting for the "Free Samb" movement.

Not NBA.
