    well, for starters, he didn't use his forearm to push himself OVER the player (and therefore, nothing like Nate Robinson), but also he didn't really dunk "over" the defender.

    He's 5'6" tall and was going to get creamed on the play. Christ, everybody is a critic.

    not being critical (as the first part was obviously humor based), but if the defender is coming from behind, that's not "over".

    over means exactly that. Over.

    Not around, not in front of, not a game, not a game, not a game....

    Well, in that case, I've never seen Nate Robinson dunk over anyone, either. :)

    well, being offered a college scholarship doesn't mean much BUT the point of my comment was how Nate Robinson used his forearm to elevate himself over Dwight Howard when he dunked "over" him.

    Quit pulling a Kingspeed here, PapaG.

    This isn't bad for an in-game dunk.

    Agree.
    Regardless... impressive dunk for a 5'6'' kid.

    He dunked over him the same as Rudy dunked over Dwight Howard in the Olympics, and most of us Blazer fans were creaming in our shorts over that dunk.

    I still cream in my pants over that dunk. Then, after about 2 minutes, I realize a dunk didn't mean a career, nor is it a good predictor of career performance. Thanks Rudy.

    Sweet dunk. But I'll leave "creaming in your shorts" over basketball plays to others.
