people talk about the dunk of death, but then they're like but what if it happened in an nba game, then it happened in an nba game and no one cared
also sort of happened 50 years ago when bill russell did it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JWelUNrJUMM
well one was a 6-6 guy jumping over a 7 footer and this is a 7 footer jumping over a 6-4 guy
Honestly, that's just as impressive. Imagine saying that 30 years ago. 7 footers doing that is just crazy
Let's see Giannis baptize Wemby into the league with this.
I mean He jumped over a guy 2ho is 6 ft 6....took about 4 strides from half court.
We have lost objectivety.
do you think lebron jumping over john lucas was on the same level as VC?
idk how you think this is similar to VC
Facts brother
Yeah, Vince's is way more impressive. He made the decision to dunk over a 7 footer. Giannis himself said he didn't see the defender, he was just going up for a normal alley-oop.
Fr I feel like even then, the reaction to this was pretty tame. Like he jumped over a 6’4”-6’5” man in a game. I get Giannis is tall but this is nuts
Of an oop no less
That's what Tim said.
Even happened in MSG of all places
Of course it happens on MSG against the Knicks
Vince Carter jumped over someone trying to guard him. He made the decision to go over a 7 footer.
Giannis himself said he didn't even see the defender, he just went up for a normal alley-oop.
