How many times will Zo get dunked on?

Postby Matt on Tue Nov 08, 2005 11:26 pm

This was a first for Alonzo Mourning. He was dunked on four times — three times by Vince Carter and once by Richard Jefferson. And both lived to talk about it.
"That is the first time in my career I've been dunked on in a game four times," said Mourning. "Four times is a lot. The last one is going to be on Vince's highlight reel for a long time."


He got totally owned, even though he blocked 5, by VC & RJ. My bet is Zo will be the most dunked on player this season (now that Bradley is out). Even before this game he got dunked on hard!

I predict as the season goes on, he'll get much better defensively and he'll either commit fouls , or block dunks

ouch- i want to see him do that verse shaq. But I doubt he would be able to move shaq in the air, he'd probably just get injuried

I don't think Shaq would have made any difference, Vince's damn armpit was at the rim. And RJ was a rebounding machine out there even as a SF.

Nets are 1 quality big man away from being contenders. If they make a big move before the trade deadline, they're legit to take any team out in a 7 game series.

Assuming everyone's knees hold out :P

He blocked 5 and won the game though...As you stated. So it evens out I guess. Not like Mourning has that much ego left anyhow.

It is becoming clearer to me that no one here has ever played basketball. If you are soeone who challenges every shot that is taken then you will ultimately get dunked on every so often. With that said he will also deflect more balls than the average rebounder, non-agressive shot blocking stiff. Darko looks to be an agressive blocker and he will get dunked on plenty, not just because he is white.

How I see it... Zo is way past his prime, after the kidney ailments and his age, AND HE STILL managed to block them 5 times. What if it was Mourning in his prime against those 2? I'd think they would probably only get 1 or 2 dunks, but get the rest blocked :lol:

That just plain mad me laugh. Who brought up Darko, let alone him being white?
