I know this is a Warriors site but since we're all hoops fans, just wanted to point this out as just ridiculous. Lebron James dunks from (just inside) the free throw line... in a real game, on a fast break, getting chased by the defense. Just ridiculous. Here's another link of the live action but farther away.

He should be in a dunk contest. The NBA should put up a $1 million purse. Winner take all.

Found out from JE Skeets at the NBA Hoops Blog, Ball Don't Lie.

Huh?

People have dunked from behind the FT line, many times, in the dunk contest. Please explain why this one is different. It’s sick that he executed it so well during a game, but… it’s not anything new.

I agree.

I appreciate all of Lebron’s monster dunks including this one, but people should go extra nuts if he jumped from behind the 3 point line and crushed it or something.

I think he is capable of doing it with him being 6’8-6’9 and his head being way above the rim everytime he dunks.

So yo Lebron…you read GSoM right? You gonna do the 3PT Line Dunk? WeLLL?!! i’m waiting for it!

Go warriors still.

maybe

GSwarrior is talking about having people chasing you down the court while in a dunk contest? That would be interesting. You get a head start but you have Brandan Wright and Anthony Randolph trailing you trying to block your shot, all the while you have to do some crazy dunk contest slam.

In-game =/= dunk contest

All those people travelled and were alone out there. Jordan, Vince, Dr. J, Barry, etc never did off a steal, fastbreak.

I just don’t understand why there isn’t real footage of the dunk from the side. The video is a picture slideshow.
