    C'mon man... You've never seen that play before in an NBA game. Just give credit where it's due...

    I think the fact that he had the presence of mind to pass it when the lane got cut off is what made it impressive. Had no one been there and he just dunked it, its still impressive but I could see the arguement of, he’s like 6’8 bouncing it off the backboard and dunking isnt seen often but its been done. I dont know Ive ever seen someone do that where they tip passed it to cutter.
    I mean you could definitely question what the defense was trying to accomplish but thats still a really good play in my opinion.

    God it’s great to see basketball again. Watching this Cs/hornets game. Weird to see Tony Parker in the teal uni.

    Right. He has 2-on-2, then 3-on-2 advantage. There's no display of quickness, dribbling, or shooting. It's like All-Star game situations with no defense. Such show-off moves are harder than necessary, and too inefficient to do in real games.

    Oddly enough I hated Durants decision, but in boogies case.... If no ones offering you than ok. Like what was he supposed to do sit out all year and not get paid?
    Call up Sacremento?
    Id rather he fired his agent and came here but whatever... I blame all the other gm’s for not asking if he’d come over on a short deal and play for them. All the stories Ive read basically said NO ONE even called...

    Absolutely, but OTOH, the fact that an NBA ballhandler didn't even consider shooting the ball when unguarded at the top of the key is definitely a big strike against him.
