The video doesn't lie
Any athlete, or non-athlete for that matter, has sustained a bruised ego at least one time in their lives, if not a dozen. For athletes (namely basketball players for the purpose of this blog), finding yourself featured on your opponent's highlight reel can certainly take you down a peg or two. You can be the best in your sport, but at the end of the day, no one is infallible.
Some pop song I heard the other day -- that I may or may not have been singing along to -- quoted “even the best fall down sometimes,“ giving cheesy reassurance to every player out there that they’re still human, and humans make mistakes. Unfortunately for them, I am about to exploit their misfortunes so everyone can get a good laugh at their expense. Don’t worry, it balances out when I cry at the sight of their salaries.
If I didn’t include this video in my blog, it just wouldn’t be fair. Not to mention my co-workers would likely yell at me and call me biased or a homer because of my obsession with LeBron James. This is the infamous video in which Jordan Crawford, a college player, “dunks” on LeBron. It happens around the 33-second mark.
In 1991, Boston’s Reggie Lewis decided he has had enough of Michael Jordan making all his shots and takes matters into his own hands – four times.
Kobe
Kobe Bryant goes up for what he thinks is going to be an easy two points to win the game, but Hedo Turkoglu makes sure that doesn’t happen.
Rajon Rondo wasreminded why they call Dwight Howard Superman.
There are few players in the league that make stealing the ball look as pretty as Dwyane Wade does. They don’t call him "The Flash" for nothing. I'd venture to say Steve Nash didn't intend on passing to Wade.
