I was thinking the same thing about Moon but who knows he may surprise some people. So what he hasnt pulled out a 360 or anything like that but those oppurtunities in games are rare. And he's hardly caught any alley oops this year either (maybe because no one can really throw a good one on the team? maybe when TJ comes back) which may be why Arenas is saying that but really who cares what gilbert arenas says. he should give that blog up already.

True that all we've seen from Moon are high flying dunks, but nothing fancy.

However, he's been on the Globetrotters... :)

Honestly, it seems like Gilbert's a bit starved for attention.

Well he jumps high but I haven't seen anything really creative from him ... yet.

He played for the Globetrotters, so I'd have to guess he's got a bit of a showman in him, but Sam may have scared it out of him for trying anything in games.

What do you think? Personallly I can't wait to see what he writes after Moon shuts him up. hopefully.


I think that you're more than a tad bit sensitive about Gilbert's comments.

It's pretty much the reason why LeBron has never been in it.

The difference is that Moon has been in a ton a dunk comps. If arenas wants to talk about a one dimensional dunker it's dwight. The only reason ppl think he got robbed is cus the judges didn't see the "gimick" the sticker. Either way he wouldn't of beat green.

Also dwight is just big, his dunk he was saving was his head touching the rim and then dunking...big whoopie

Moon will show Arenas wrong.

LOL!
what a funny day!
:rofl: :rofl:

Anyways...He could be right he could be wrong knowing the smitch he probably scared the heck out of Moon telling him no acrobatic dunks.
Also one other thing i guarantee Rudy Gay will win the slam dunk contest. Book It

Won't be the first time Gilbert has backtracked on his words.

More ammo for Jamario, somebody send this to Chuck and ask him to pass it off to Moon.

he's missed a lot of dunks already, which worries me for the comp. and i don't know if he has the hands to palm the ball and any complicated in the air...but here's hoping he kills it!!
