I understand the magnitude of the D.Wizzle dunk.
In my opinion, the best elements:
1) Anderson Varejao exploding, with the padded post preventing from him doing 3 complete backwards rolls.
2) D. Wizzle stepping over his corpse, a la Iverson 2001 NBA Finals over Lue, and giving The Wade Face, followed by him screaming "THATS HOW YOU DO IT.... THATS HOW YOU MOTHERFUCKING DO IT!!!" to the electric Miami crowd.
3) Full-court sprint, the cut-step, the elevation, followed by a malicious tomahawk.
4) LeBron James even calling it "Top 10 Facial of All-Time" after the game, and it happened to his OWN TEAMMATE!!!
But is this dunk better than this....
THIS might be the dunk of the year.
Heres why (in Boy Genius's opinion):
1) ITS OPENING NIGHT OF THE NBA SEASON! Home opener, on national TV, at the Pepsi Center in Denver (one of the loudest arenas in the Association).
2) Carmelo's leap to steal, leading into a power-dribble drop step, then explosion... he didnt get a running start like Wizzle.
3) Mike Tirico's play-by-play call TRUMPS Marv's (uber-rare!). Shit, even old man cracka-ass-cracka Hubie Brown trumps Reggie Millers call.
4) Melo's maniacal face as soon as he lands, not to mention the fierce fist pounding on his chest, followed by the even fiercer chest-slapping, screaming "I'M BACK!! I'M BACK!!!" to the world (indicating his recovery from injury).
5) Kenyon Martin. U know he did something crazy in reaction, a shame ESPN only showed you his back, but you know he made some murderous face, judging from his kicking motion
but after thinking about it, Milsap took it like a man. Varejao exploded like the pussy that he is.
