Contest: Win a Meister x B. Jennings Watch

Our friends at Meister Watches recently teamed with Brandon Jennings of the Milwaukee Bucks to make this fresh black/Bucks themed version of Meister’s Prodigy series. They sent one to SLAM to give away to a lucky reader. Since Jennings is one of the fastest cats in the league and has been known to break ankles here and there, tell us your favorite ankle breaking moment in the comments section below. Our editors in the SLAM Dome will deliberate tirelessly in picking the winner next Tuesday. For more details on the watch, click here.

*UPDATE: Congrats to burnt_chicken for winning this fly watch!

    Iverson breaks Jordan.

  • burnt_chicken

    I think that the breaking of Steph Curry’s ankles was the best for a few reasons:
    1. Curry fell down. A prerequisite.
    2. They are from the same draft class, so Money had something to prove. Which he did. When he made Curry fall down.
    3. Jennings revealed his heart, his inner drive, by sticking with the play after he missed the initial shot. Offensive rebound! Off battling the behemoths. And was subsequently rewarded with foul shots.
    4. As he is walking to the foul line, his face says it all: determination. I earned this, and I’ll earn much much more.
    Young Money indeed!

    The Young Buck’s best ankle breaker was on Steph curry. He crossed him over so raw then missed the shot and it still made highlights reels

  • matt604

    Usually contests ask you to describe “TOPIC HERE” about yourself, so wouldn’t this contest be about your personal favorite ankle braking moment not Brandon Jennings’? I mean, dude might have all of maybe 5 so far in the NBA, how many people can describe that in different and unique ways..?

  • Bruno

    don’t know if it really is an ankle breaker but I will always remember the move Jason Williams put on Gary Payton

  • http://www.runninglikwidworks.com MrRLW

    Damn, just one… I’m like put on a tape from Oak Hill and call it a day, lol.

    Bucks v. Cavs last season, Jennings was on the wing against Mo… went in & out dribble, right to left, then behind his back all done at full speed. Fuhgettaboutit… Williams was dazed and confused lol. Lebron crushed the layup attempt, but the move was the business.

  • Migs

    I can’t say I watch much of Brandon Jennings, but my vote for the best ankle breaker moment in the NBA has to be DWade on Eric Snow. Dwade basically crosses Snow over twice in succession, first a simple hard left to right cross, and while Snow is trying to recover, Wade pulls it back under his right leg back to the left hand, all while Snow is stumbling from the 3pt line down to the key.

  • burnt_chicken

    oh, all time? anybody?

    Jordan on Byron Russell, 1998, for the CHIP.
    Push off? The NBA is a man’s league. Deal with it.

    Easy: AI crossing MJ — http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y3X274lz3wY.

    He didn’t break his ankles, but it was when you knew the Answer was for real and MJ was a great defender.

  • http://www.double-technical.blogspot.com Zee!

    1997 NCAA Tourney. Providence vs Arizon. God Shammgod calls for the clear out against eventual champion Arizona. Seemed like everyone on Arizona ran away from Shammgod, including Mike Bibby, who had gotten broken a few times that game already. Once the clear out happened, the only person standing between the God and the hoop, was Michael Dickerson….one Shammgod later, he was hugging Mile Simon, while Shammgod was headed toward the cup.

    brandon jenning breaks kemba walker’s ankles at 2008 McDonalds. Damn, it was the first time I saw him and I would never ever see anything more eyecatching!

  • Kevin

    DWade against the Jazz. DWade not only makes the defender fly into the stands (NOW thats a crossover when the defender loses complete and utter control like a girl in the middle of Hello Kitty store) but he also gets the most call to potentially tie up the game and send the game to OT. When its all said and done, winning the game is the MOST important thing.

    Iverson breaking Antonio Daniels down and then driving past him, hold up, then breaking Antonio Daniels down to the ground again and then driving past him for the finger roll as the 76ers bench goes crazy.

  • http://www.doktahsoose.wordpress.com/ Ryan Baker

    March 3rd, 2006. From the right to the left to the right again, the YouTube video title says it all, “Allen Iverson breaks both of Antonio Daniels’ ankles.” AI brought the ball up, faked left but slashed right. He left Daniels stumbling backwards, using his hands to bounce back up before being crossed-over again. Iverson cut to the basket, while the Wizards watched in awe, and dropped the easy bucket. The Answer finished with 47 points & 12 assists in the win over the Wiz that night.

    Jordan Brand Classic, splits 2 guys with a behind the back and between the legs at half court, fakes out another defender at the free throw line with a fake behind the back pass and goes in for the lay up. just an unstoppable sequence that shows the speed and handles that he has.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4wXJvsWEmcw

    Derrick Rose Crossing Over Tyreke Evans
    It made Tyreke Evans look like he was standing In cement then just crumble to the floor.
    He turned around and was where did HE GO????

  • http://www.slamonline.com Mojtaba Reza

    My greatest anklebreaker moment ever is still to this day Allen Iverson on basically the whole LA Lakers squad well to be honest just Ty.Lue and yes not a full anklebreaker but dude was out of balance and he tried to jump and just fell. ”Imma just walk over you if you gonna fall down”, true story.
    AI the Answer to all little man’s dreams
    Bring him back to the league!!!

  • Henry Paulk III

    Favorite cross over moment?? surely my favorite was Derrick Rose crossing up on Andre Miller when they played the 76ers his rookie year. I mean I’ve seen some bad ones even Brandon Jennings had a good one against Stephon Curry. But this was ridicolous Rose just broke Miller down to the ground literally and the crossover was so good no one even cared that he missed the lay up!

  • http://www.diimemag.com Royal

    Honestly, my favorite ankle breaking moment did not occur in the NBA or College ranks, but rather in a Sport & Health Gym, even more surprisingly by my own father. My dad gave his defender the SLOWEST in-and out, between the legs, spin crossover which left the defender limping as if he actually broke his ankle. And my dad, being the total D-Bag that he is, started pointing at the poor guy like Shawn Kemp did after he dunked on Alton Lister…… Good times

  • rob stewart

    Better yet, how about when Randolph Childress(wake forest) crossed Jeff Mcginnis(UNC) to the ground, motioned at him to get up, and then calmly stuck a long range dagger. Classic!

  • http://kb24.com Bigi

    I really don’t have a favorite, but everytime a guy trips or falls to the floor is funny, cool and embarrassing all in the same time. So without further ado…A.I. and A. Daniels ladies and gents.”The Turkish Delight” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5PKa42S1vj4

  • v15

    back in grade 7, my team had a game, and one of our players who was’t exactly up to par with basketball lingo absolutely crosses this kid and drops him, later on when the kid was sitting on the bench i tell him “shit, you broke his ankles man!” and the most terrified look came over my friends face, thinking he actually broke his ankle, he even said that he has to go over and say sorry until we told him what we meant.

    fav nba moment: starbury droppin the great wall of china.

  • Jamie Rillay

    Seen BJ at rucker a few years back and seems a humble guy and chosen a path to the league that not many have done so respect to him!, as for my fav anklebreaker, its me a few years back doing this kid something bad ;) enjoy

    My favorite Brandon Jennings Crossover? Thats easy. The one that has defined his entire career. This crossover shook the whole basketball world upside down and opened up a whole new world to the possibilities that are available for a kid with a tight handle. Still dont follow? This crossover jumped to the top of the headlines on the home-front as well as across the pond. Brandon jennings broke all of our ankles when he skipped on David Stern’s rules and the Arizona Wildcats and took his flash to Rome. Our Ankles have never been the same.

  • http://www.kwapt.blogspot.com KobeWearsAPurpleThong

    Ok, this one is my favorite and I’m so glad I could actually find it. This is Randolph Childress absolutely ABUSING Jeff McInnis in the 1995 ACC title game. He makes McInnis look like he’s breakdancing or something. By the way, Childress scored 107 pts in 3 games and that record still stands. He dropped 40 on the Dukies, 30 on Virginia & 37 on Antawn Jamison, VC & and NC in this game. Ballin’.

  • MadJewel

    Even though he does not have much of a name as of these days, I would have to tip my hat to Randolph Childress on a UNC TarHeel. Not only breaking down the player, he even taunts the player to get up, and then shoots the shot. Only players of great confidence (even swagger) can do that. To top it off, he made the shot. Brandon Jennings definitely got swagger, but he’s also got class.

  • HEHATEME

    I like how Jason Kidd took Brandon Jennings out to dinner this past Sunday to give him advice on becoming a better player. Then on Monday Brandon Helps take out the red hot Mavs and their 12 game winning streak.

  • Michael Bevers

    My favorite ankle breaking moment was when Allen Iverson was a rookie going up against the best player ever to play basketball Michael Jordan. Crossing over MJ and hitting the jumper in his face was priceless.

    I get to go to all bucks home games and I think my favorite ankle breaker was when he shut down Steph Curry a few months ago.

  • dc

    Skip to my Lou in rucker park ebc Vs b.diddy. All the corss over from that game needed instant reply. Its like everyone know skip is about to do a cross over, but he it so good still make everyone stand up from their seat and go brizzzzeee!

  • Brandon

    One of the most underrated ball handlers of all time: Jamal Crawford making Ray Allen look 40 years old with this ankle breaker when he played for the dubs.

    Kenny Anderson on Bobby Hurley during 90s ACC tournament(?) where he gets outlet and one on one vs. Hurley. Shakes hurley off with the dribble and leave him behind for the layup

  • R lo

    not the greatest crossover, but I enjoyed a stranded Yao at the top of the key and getting crossed by Marbury. The tallest trees topple hardest.
