The day is quickly progressing from late afternoon to early evening, so let’s just knock these two posters out before tonight’s games begin, shall we? Alright! First up is Moe Harkless, who threw down a pair of third-quarter jams over the oft-yammed-on Chris Kaman on Sunday. While neither two-handed mash is overly spectacular (and only one really constitutes what I consider a “poster”), both are indeed two-handed mashes in the vicinity of Chris Kaman, which is a thing of note because Kaman was yet to appear on the posterized list this season. Needless to say, I’m shocked that he was able to make it nearly halfway through the campaign — that’s got to be a personal best.
No honorable mentions, obviously, as Harkless basically won by default.

Monday’s winning poster was significantly more exciting. With just a minute left in Portland’s latest attempt to pull off a miracle, Damian Lillard nearly helped the Blazers do just that by driving past John Wall and destroying Nene. Unfortunately, Lillard turned the ball over on the ensuing possession, but that doesn’t make his one-handed smash any less ridiculous. Take a look at the little guy…
He’s got those sneaky ups! Honorable mentions to Kawhi Leonard, DeMarcus Cousins, Al Horford, and Al Horford.
