Shannon Brown Does it Again

Saying Shannon Brown can jump is like saying Tiger Woods is a good golfer. He has to be one of the top 5-10 athletes in the NBA, and he proves it time after time with his aerobatic display. Now a fixture on the Lakers after re-signing in the offseason, expect a big season out of Shannon (maybe surpassing the NBA's greatest current Jewish basketball player as Derek Fisher's backup?). 

And Shannon's not the type of dunker who will dazzle the crowd with creativity. It's power over style. Remember his throwdown over Birdman during the playoffs last season? A nasty dunk, plus I'll give him bonus points for a clutch playoff performance. 



Last night, in a preseason (yes I know, preseason) game v. the Warriors, Shannon Brown took flight, up, and over old Mikki Moore (poor Mikki). Even though it is a preseason game and honestly no one gives a rat's turd about the outcome of the game, there's no contest...Moore got posterized worse than Birdman. Watch the video a few times and take a look at how far away Brown takes off from, how high he has to get to get over a pretty tall and lanky (and scary looking) Mikki Moore, and then how much strength and hangtime he needs to still stuff the ball through the net. The one over Birdman was nice, but come on, who hasn't dunked on Birdman? 


So the dunk over Moore wins in my book...Which do you think is the nastier dunk?
