Yes, Yes he can. This is why I was so pissed he didn't make it to the 2nd round of that contest...

Bluesky · by **Andrew** on Wed Apr 09, 2008 9:27 am

Awesome shot, but I'm surprised it counted.

I'm pretty sure its fake. The Lakers would get so pissed. Look at Radmanovic.

by **Fcuk Orlando** on Fri Apr 11, 2008 1:23 pm

imagine if he fell flat faced on that car.

by **Gundy** on Fri Apr 11, 2008 3:00 pm

Gotta be fake. He looks and moves like an animation in the air.

They just don't make NBA videos/DVDs like this anymore:

I love the score on the 1984, 1986 and 1988 dunk contests, particularly "In the Hall of the Mountain King" over the 1984 contest. They used that in a few NBA videos in the 80s and 90s, always very effectively.

That skinny kid in the dunk contest with the gold necklace looks cocky to me, good thing he lost.

haha, nice post Andrew - I used to have those on VHS :-)

Some of the segments were admittedly corny but I still think they were better than the Street series. They certainly did a better job of putting together clips in the form of highlight reels. The Dunks and Ankle Breakers DVDs of recent years spend too much time profiling players rather than serving as collections of memorable clips from the entire league, no matter if they involved superstars or not.

Speaking of bloopers:

I had no idea Tony Allen tore his ACL last year on a play that didn't even count :roll:

by **Fcuk Orlando** on Fri Apr 18, 2008 3:50 pm

rofl, not the best way to go out...

Bluesky · by **Andrew** on Fri Apr 18, 2008 7:03 pm

I remember seeing that during an ESPN halftime show last year. Highly unnecessary in retrospect, but it's not out of the ordinary for players at any level to go ahead and attempt the shot/finish the play knowing that the whistle has already rendered the ball dead. He'll probably think twice about it though.

Mario from the official NBA Live forums gave me the heads up on this one, Michael Jordan breaking a backboard circa 1986.

Nicely done, though they were beaten to the punch by the parodies on YouTube.

It's a pretty good send up of The Six Million Dollar Man.
