By now many of you have seen the video posted below. It is a play that we will see 1000 times next season and has probably happened to LeBron about 100 times in his career. For those of you that haven't seen it, without further ado -
That's it.
Now don't get me wrong. I can't dunk, so any who can gets a level of my respect. Thing is, basketball is about much more than dunks, like baseball is about more than home runs. LeBron James isn't one of, if not THE BEST player on the planet because he can dunk, or stop someone from dunking on him. There's alot more that goes into it.
The fact that there has been such hooplah over this only to see the actual event live is a major disappointment. Some "fish stories" are better when the fish is 6 feet long, weighing 50 pounds. Not much fun when we find out it was actually a minnow.
