This alley oop from Gasol to Shannon Brown last night was a thing of awesome beauty.

Can't do YouTube from work or I'd look for a video. The facial delivered to Allen on the play was pretty special too.

Why the question mark in the thread title? Was video replay required to confirm dude cleared it?

It was rhetorical.

He did stuff like that every game at Michigan State. It's nice to see the rest of the world catching on.

He had a few eye-popping dunks during the regular season, too. Dude can definitely get some altitude? (Rhetorical "?" included for added effect)

Who gives a fuck? Two points are two points, style or not. Brown's just another two-bit bench warmer like Jason Richardson who's only recognized for his dunk abilities.

And it's not like JR led the league in three pointers one season, or anything.

And it's not like JR is much better known as a 3 point threat than for winning a Dunk Contest.


Yeah, you're an idiot.

Yeah, the Jason Richardson take (the REAL JR is and always will be Jeremy Roenick) was a bit of a reach, I can admit that much.

Good god, you're an idiot.

Anyway, Brown's best highlight isn't even a dunk, imo. It was this block...

Let's see -- one JR's league plays its finals on Versus network, the other's league plays their finals on ABC.

One of his best highlights is a missed dunk.

JR will more than likely make the hockey HOF. Will the poor excuse for a basketball league's JR?

...which matters to a total of around, uh, 20 people below about (aboot?) 49 deg north.

Best one-handed catch and throwdown you'll probably ever see (second dunk on this clip):
