    As awesome as the dunk was, how incredibly quick did he get there? 2 dribbles, amazing

  • logues Posted: Mar.4 at 11:39 am
    damn.. with the left. that last angle was is the best. but, what about leslie’s dunk? that guy can fly too

  • logues Posted: Mar.4 at 11:41 am
    Randy: great point. only 2 dribbles from half court and a dunk off the opposite foot with opposite hand is pretty amazing

  • Laumol Posted: Mar.4 at 12:04 pm
    Got to work on the landing though

  • Raul the Hawk Posted: Mar.4 at 12:04 pm
    Speed speed speed, kid is a demon…almost out of control

  • Tzvi Twersky Posted: Mar.4 at 12:14 pm
    Damn…

    Stanley Robinson oop he caught over the two Notre Dame cats was pretty impressive aswell but, John Wall did that! Leslie got to be continued hops but that was a case of when keeping it real goes wrong, he should have never jumped! Lastnight in College bssketball cat’s where getting posterised all evening though so J. Wall dunk was deffinately on the menu!

    If I were him I’d stay in college another year to minimize my chances of having to go to New Jersey.

  • Ree Roe Posted: Mar.4 at 1:04 pm
    I was at the game & honestly Travis’s dunk >>Wall’s. Go Dawgs

  • Yesse Posted: Mar.4 at 2:37 pm
    No foul?

  • JoeMaMa Posted: Mar.4 at 2:58 pm
    In other news, the fattest man in the world decided to attend the game. Either that or a team of little people snuck in to wreak havoc on the Georgia fans.

    It was aight, but not ‘ridiculous’. Come on y’all, tighten up.

  • andrew Posted: Mar.4 at 6:26 pm
    I think what was more impressive than the dunk on this play was walls speed and ability to get to the hole off two dribbles from half court. The dunk was average the play spectacular

  • andre anglais Posted: Mar.4 at 8:32 pm
    the adjective that comes to mind is “fast”. Insanely fast. The pick off was nice, its not like it was a lazy pass or anything, John’s just better than anyone around him. He probably saw that coming from a mile away. What impressed me was how he got back up so quick and ran down the court – he hit the ground HARD on that. New Jersey might be stinky, but this kid needs to be in the NBA.

    Two outrageous athletes right here. I’d love to see them in a dunk contest.

  • Teddy-the-Bear Posted: Mar.5 at 2:29 am
    Anything is better than “Kevin Durant goes around Andrew Bynum.”

  • Teddy-the-Bear Posted: Mar.5 at 2:30 am
    I can’t really tell, but was that a travel? He didn’t have complete grasp on the ball before he took two steps. I’ve always wondered about that: Anybody know the exact rulebook criteria for a travel?

  • Anton Posted: Mar.5 at 3:09 am
    LOL @ the fat guy

  • Hursty Posted: Mar.5 at 5:03 am
    No Anton, it’s
    LMAO @ the fat guy.
    Yeah, I went there with the fat joke.

  • A. Posted: Mar.5 at 5:35 am
    John Wall dunks very often with the left. It’s not the first time…

  • nastierthanu Posted: Mar.5 at 8:16 am
    I don’t ever see him dunk of his left foot with his right hand. He’s one of those weird cats. Check the highlights from the rucker same thing

  • Sporting-Lisbon-Blazers Posted: Mar.5 at 10:05 am
    lololol at teddy, that kid in the open court is unfair!

  • Sporting-Lisbon-Blazers Posted: Mar.5 at 10:10 am
    “Durant goes around Bynum” hahahhaa, cant stop laughing, that was a sh1thy slamadaday! Wall will be a great in game dunker in da Assossiation from the look of it!

  • A. Posted: Mar.5 at 10:39 am
    @nastierthanu: He got Stackhouse with the right hand. But he does dunk with the left more often.

  • Logues Posted: Mar.5 at 11:42 am
    rashad mccants always jumps off his right foot too

  • therighttoremainsalient Posted: Mar.5 at 5:56 pm
    @teddy- I’ve just gone and read the rules for the NBA on travelling and dribbling: nba.com/101 interestingly enough it doesn’t say anything about steps PER dribble. BUT the description of the way he stepped repeatedly through 2 dribbles could be defined as a carry ball. It was a spectacular play and he’s fortunate he didn’t get hurt on the landing (foul?) but at the end of the day…

  • str8 from samoa Posted: Mar.5 at 8:30 pm
    dam landing on the floor like that is soldier.

  • The Seed Posted: Mar.6 at 8:31 am
    Representing us North Carolina ballers we got game, WHAT!!!

  • Teddy-the-Bear Posted: Mar.6 at 8:52 pm
    Thanks trtrs. It looked suspect from both a traveling and a carrying perspective. It’s a little vague and usually the refs allow anything to go when it’s going to result in a highlight reel. But I’m still not sure what that was lol.

  • therighttoremainsalient Posted: Mar.7 at 7:20 am
    yeah it was pretty loose looking…

  • GetOVERit Posted: Mar.7 at 7:26 am
    Teddy, Not sure what it was? It was a dam nice play, stop nitpicking, you are probably a georgia fan who is bitter!!

  • GametimeWeezy Posted: Mar.8 at 4:07 pm
    where was the foul call? wall is cold

  • Joseph Posted: Mar.9 at 11:59 am
    Ouch, that fall looked hard.

  • Dallas Posted: Mar.9 at 10:21 pm
    When i first saw this i thought Wall was gonna be injured, looks like he hit the floor pretty hard.
