the kids name is jordan, maybe that's the reason it was such a big deal, ironic, other than that who cares? nice power dunk though.

Unlike Bron, that didn't live up to the hype..

I don't see why it's a big deal at all. Nice dunk nevertheless... It wasn't as bad as people had envisioned.

the way everyone made it seem i thought it was gonna be a earth shattering dunk. i was expecteding it to be alot better then it was. it was pretty basic if you ask me its just the dunk was on somebody who has a name for himself. lebron got dunkd on thats cool, but lebron has also dunkd ON some of the best players in the league. he straight merked tim duncan coming up the court a few years ago.

This is a much better view / quality video in it you can see Lebron clearly going straight up trying to block King Crawford but to no avail.

In the grand scheme of things it doesn't mean anything, but why Lebron couldn't be like his buddy Devin Harris and handle the event with class is beyond me...

It's a nice dunk, but it's not the dunk that's the big deal. The big deal was Lebron and/or his people trying to keep it out of public view, which only feeds the perception that he's a textbook narcissist. Hopefully this summer he has learned the lesson that everyone gets dunked on, loses, and fails sometimes -- how you handle that is what determines what kind of person you are.

There is so much wrong with your post that I shouldn't have to even explain why your getting a warning.

Oh no Lebron at 24 yrs old is not as humble as we would like him to be! In fact, he might even be, *gasp*, cocky and conceited! Oh no! :roll:

Hey, I'm more than happy to admit he's he best player in the world if you'll concede he's an a-hole. Look at that, common ground between Wiz and Cavs fans. Hope all is well in C-bus. I used to live in Grandview.

dont understand what the hype around was about the dunk. Give Jordan Crawford some props, and who knows if Lebron told nike officials either way **** nike and there overprotective ways. I'm sure they did the same kind of media control when MJ was in his prime, I don't blame Lebron but the slimey nike executives that try to protect the images of the great players trying to make them look like there gods so kids will buy there sneakers.
