Shout-out Knicks bench for lack of reaction. Held together so well, minus that hand drop, that one of them started looking around to make sure this was reality

[–] DontBanMe_IWasJoking@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (5 children)

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

[–] PlumAccomplished2509@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Even happened in MSG of all places

[–] itsahmemario@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Of course it happens on MSG against the Knicks

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

also sort of happened 50 years ago when bill russell did it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JWelUNrJUMM

[–] MoooonRiverrrr@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

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

[–] Briggity_Brak@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

this is nuts

That's what Tim said.

It’s been more than 5 years brother

[–] mankls3@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

fuck the announcers for not even mentioning that a grown ass man just got jumped over like he was a toad from mario. that hurts people from remembering this

[–] attackanddominate@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Woah what Gus Johnson? Does he still call any local nba games?

[–] BobbbyLight@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I think he did a handful of local Bucks games 2 years in a row but it's been some years since he's done that.

Giannis jump over Tim Hrdaway Jr. for dunk, underrated as hell.

[–] Noveltypocket@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (14 children)

He cleared him so easily that I’m not even sure people fully processed what they witnessed in the moment.

[–] v0yev0da@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (6 children)

Giannis buffs literally broke him dude clips through players now his nuts hit box needs to be adjusted

I remember watching this live. I was laying down on got up and was like did that giannis jump over someone mid oop?!

[–] cuhman1cuhman2@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Going to miss this man so much once he leaves. Hes a funny guy, has amazing highlights, super likeable, humble story, and raises his game in important games.

My fav nonLaker for since 2017ish probs

[–] S13pointFIVE@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Was a great time to be a Bucks fan

[–] Echoplanar_Reticulum@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Holy shit, that's me in the red hat!

[–] molcomtitman@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Pretty sure Giannis asked the Bucks to stop selling tshirts with this on it cuz he felt bad for hardaway

The filthiest move in the history of mankind, the tea-bag dunk

[–] mysterysackerfice@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

HE'S A ~~GENETIC~~ GREEK FREAK AND HE'S NOT NORMAL!

[–] YeMyIdol@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

“Underrated” stfu

[–] HOFredditor@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

the most underrated dunk of the 2010s imo.

[–] jwlmkr@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

“You cannot be serious.”

[–] Legitimate-Angle9861@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Is this not dangerous play? Like if he mistimed it it's a kneww to that guys head. Still hella awesome tho.

[–] 08legacygt@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Do the bucks still wear these jerseys? I have a Gianni’s jersey with that design and can’t recall the last time they wore them

[–] MntEverest77@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

McEnroe "You can't be serious"

[–] NewspaperConfident16@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Idk about underrated, I think this is one of his more talked about dunks

[–] Ok-Smoke-1230@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Dope clip. Makes me wonder what's the 2nd best dunk to follow up the Vince Carter Legacy?

[–] 0PFRICH@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago
