Just watched the Golden State-Utah Game 4. Baron Davis had one of the nastiest dunks I have ever seen. Turned the corner, went straight at AK-47, rose, cocked the ball and just stuffed it in the basket right over his head. Oooo, it was nasty!
Golden State is fun to watch. Their crowd is way into it, and they play a very entertaining style - with four guards on the court most of the time just running and gunning. Plus they have Jason Richardson. J-Rich, the two time NBA dunk champion, said this about Davis’s posterizing of Kirilenko:
“That would have to be the greatest dunk I’ve ever seen with my eyes in person. It was like he put his whole body in the rim”.
I agree. Golden State is now officially my team out West - I actually dislike most of the West teams and I hate how everyone thinks they’re somehow far superior to the East.
The Pistons are peaking right now. It looks like they’ll finish the sweep on Sunday against the Bulls and then play the Cavs. LeBron always scares me, but I think he just doesn’t have enough help yet to compete for a title. I think they’ll win in five or six and then face San Antonio for a rematch of ‘05. And the Spurs are the one team that the Pistons don’t want. I’d much rather see the Suns. The good thing is that the West will beat each other up while the Pistons will coast, be rested and confident.
Oh that dunk was nasty!
Watch it here. Forget about records for a second. I don’t care if you’re not a basketball fan. Just watch.
