This dunk was actually put down in mid-August, but it’s new to me as of five minutes ago. Once you hit the 12 second mark you’ll see why it’s more deserving of a special summertime Poster of the Day edition than any dunk thrown down since the NBA went on vacation.
First of all, let me give this dunk the nasty faces it deserves…
Dunk rating on the Starbury Nastiness Scale:
8/10 Starbury Nasty Faces.
Excellent dunk by Nicolas Batum. High elevation, very nice extension. As for Ronny Turiaf’s celebration… I don’t even know where to begin. I mean, nothing I’m capable of writing could possibly add anything to that. It’s one of those rare moments that is simply so epic that any attempt by me to try to glorify it would only take away from it’s greatness. I’m just gonna let it be. Enjoy.
