POTD 12/5/12: Andre Iguodala on Josh Smith

Well, I had an awfully tough decision to make today.  Between Andre Iguodala and Caron Butler, it was almost a tossup.  What ultimately swung my vote in favor of Iguodala is the last replay angle in the video below.  As you watch, notice how far Iggy has to reach in order to dunk the ball as he’s falling to the floor.  We’re talking about a real degree of difficulty here, even considering the blatant offensive foul that went uncalled.  Butler’s dunk looks beautiful, but Chris Kaman didn’t make it overly challenging.

Remarkable focus exhibited by Andre.  Most players probably bail out on this dunk attempt when they realize that they’re about to hit the deck.

Dunk rating on the Starbury Nastiness Scale:


8.5/10
