    I didn't mean "what's your point?" in a combative way, I meant it in a "tell me more..." kind of way.......

    Damn internet......It's almost impossible to gauge someone's intentions any more. Letters on the screen just don't say enough.

    Anyway......I get what you guys are saying, and I agree.

    And Rudy isn't? How many guys in the NBA can do what Rudy did tonight?

    yes the ppl in the blazer forum who have never met u in person, know u really well. im just reduced to my speculations and i assume your a 27 year old virgin, living in your mothers basement hooked on the blazers and fox news.

    dude u need to separate journalism from what the boyz at tnt do. the objective of the tnt broadcast is to entertain and thats why they attract a large, non basketball fan base. if they offend ppl in the process, so be it. and what u conveniently ignore is that daquen cook and lebron james were the biggest victims of the tnt verbal assault. lebron was called a coward and the cook kid was written off before he ever took a shot.

    You're right. Dunking off a 3 foot platform is way harder than catching a ball off the back of the glass and reverse dunking it. I apologize.

    I don't think that's about race either. Russell Westbrook is one of the most athletic players in the NBA. He's definitely top 10.

    Check out some of his UCLA highlights.

    Rudy is athletic, but is definitely not on Westbrook's level.

    Seriously, what Nate did is more impressive than what Rudy was trying to do. Take off the rose sunglasses.

    Ever seen Russell in college at UCLA? He's a freak of nature. Rudy is very impressive, but in my opinion, Russell is a better athlete and probably a better showman, however, since he wasn't there, it's hard for my point to be proven.

    Re: Official Rudy Got Screwed Thread

    And here is where you are wrong, good sir, because most people on this forum already know that I covered the Blazers for three seasons. I worked for ESPN Insider for five years. I did sports journalism in Portland for about seven years total, so try again big man.

    Remember when Greg Oden played in a 24 Hour Fitness last season? Yeah... that was me breaking that story :devilwink:

    The human is not a 'platform'. There's a reason this idea was used in the NBA dunk contest, because its a lot harder to get footing off a human body and its lot harder to get a good vertical off a human body.

    I don't care that Rudy didn't win, but that "back" dunk was pathetic -- if you were impressed by that then you have very low expectations.
