Yeea, what up!? It's your boy SOHH Ballsy back at it and still tucking under Craftmatics, ya dig!?
Every Friday we're going to FlashBack to a memorable sports moment and then we're going Back to the Future with a look ahead to the weekend's slate of games. Let's not waste any time.
My boys and I frequently debate on the greatest dunk of all time. Let me clarify...not a game dunk because if it's a game dunk, it's this... hands down:
That had to feel better than an orgasm. But we're talking greatest Dunk Contest dunk of all time. Whenever the topic comes up, 'Nique's windmill and Jordan's free-throw line jam are right up there on the list, but with me, the choice is clear. I would have to give the nod to Vinsanity for his opening dunk of the 2000 contest.
Y'all remember this!?
Jesus Christ. There were a lot of great dunks, but for what's it's worth I don't think anything comes close to this one when it comes to creativity, degree of difficulty, power and flare. This dunk takes it. I mean, this dude came from the elbow, jumped with his back against the grain, windmilled the rock on the way to his apex and finished with power waay above the rim. I remember Shaq with the 'Ohhhh' written all over him and KG showing the stink face, like he just caught a whiff of Superhead's vagina. Oooh Weee! The best dunk of all time!
But you tell me - Who had the best dunk contest dunk of all time!? There's no right or wrong answer here, but if you say Dee Brown or Cedric Ceballos, I'm going to find and slap you. I promise!
Now, back to the future... Week 8's notable NFL matchups:
Dolphins-Giants
The location of this game makes it one to watch. I'm talking bloody Wembley Stadium in London ya blokes! I expect more Osi and Strahan to introduce themselves to Miami QB Cleo Lemon. Who's Cleo Lemon you ask? Exactly why Giants win.
Patriots-Redskins
It's come to the point that you gotta watch the Pats to see Tom Brady and Randy Moss do their thing... seemingly effortless. Dudes are on a tear.
Vikings-Eagles
So, who the F**k is Adrian Peterson? Is he the back who ran for 361 all-purpose yards against the Bears in Week 6 or the dude that was held to 63 yards rushing at Dallas last week? A-Pete will show he's the truth this weekend and return to his 'Body 'em form.
Your Boy,
SOHH Ballsy
With the 15th pick of the 1999 NBA DRAFT, The New York Knickerbockers select Frederick Weiss, 7-1, 240 pound center from France.
The Knicks had the chance to draft the dun from QB, or the Russian AK47, but nahhh...
This is the best Dunk contest dunk of all time, but it didn't have more flare that MJ's free throw line dunk. MJ had his legs and arms cocked back...come on!
Yall remember when Brent Barry won the slam dunk contest in 96 doin the MJ?
What a joke that was...
That was dope, but remember when Tracey Mcgrady threw thew ball off the backboard and then poked it? That fact that he did it in the all-star game made it that much iller.
What up Boston we runnin' thangs!!!!!!
Gotta agree with Bixby. Vince is the best ever. And hell, I'm from Chicago. But the level of difficulty in his dunks was off the charts.
WHEN VINCE DUNKS THAT SHIT IS BANANAS....VINCE IS A COMBO BETWEEN JORDAN AND NIQUE, WHEN HE DUNKED OVER THE 7 FOOTER THAT WAS THE BEST SHIT I EVER SEEN IN LIFE....VINCE BUSTED 50 NUTTS, AND KG WENT BIZZZERK AND BUSTED 100 NUTTS OFF THAT SHIT ...THE REST OF THE PEOPLE WERE JUST STUNNED OUTTA THEIR MINDS...LIKE WTFJH?!!!

The illest dunk Vince Carter has ever done, in my opinion, is the leap over the 7'2" Frenchman in the Olympics
If ya'll get the chance to see vince in the mcdonalds all americam dunk contest when he was in it back in 95 or 96 you will see him do that same dunk which is that first dunk from the 200 dunk contest.
its about time u bitch ass niggas make a blog bout sports instead of all the hatin on jay and 50 that goes on in here fuckin faggots
yo that name ballsy is kinda suspect u need to change that shit ho

GRIND OR DIE
the best play off dunk was that jordan on ewing, when he shook off oakley and starks (2 great defenders) and then put ewing's head in the rim.
"Kobe(and the rest) will do good things against good players, but MJ did great things against legends"

Patrick Ewing is an All Time Defensive Center 6 Inches taller than Mike, ya boy Mike had his head above Pat's head his hand a good 2 inches above the rim, there is no greater in game dunk than that.......i agree with Vincent being number 1 dunk contest playa
Yo, I'm with JJ, the best dunk ever was that 720 dude from the And 1 Tour did. I know it's not the NBA, but damn, have you ever seen one before OR after? Did you even think it was possible? Didn't think so.
Don't forget about the boy James White, he did some of the illest shit ever in the College dunk contest a year or so ago, he play for the Spurs now if they let him in the dunk contest its ova
Jordan dunking on Ewing was a great in-game dunk but not the greatest. What about Starks dunking on Jordan and Pippen or Kevin Johnson dunking on the Dream
the 720 by "the air up there" is the most CRAZY the best nba dunk is either starks or tom chambers
720 the best! who?they!yes!the best! best in game TOM CHAMBERS!! knee in the chest.nice!
Carter is cool but it seems like when your the best, the natural human instinct is to hate. Therefore we wont say Michael Jordan. Trying to match anybodys dunks to Jordans is silly. Jordan looks much cooler dunking a basketball than anybody. Like and eagle with its feather spread, Jordans legs, arms and tounge were all involved in the dunk. Carter dunks and there nothing going on with his legs or anything..just an unfinnesed hard dunk. Jordans "Kiss the Rim" dunk, where his body was damn near horizontal with the rim kills anything Vince has done or ever will attemp. Hell, a Jordan layup is more exciting than any slam by any player. Come on man, please.
dr. j.'s cradle dunk over micheal cooper and kareem the best in game dunk all time but vince's is up there maybe a close second jordan got a few, dominique got a few, lebron had one last yr. def. in top 10. In game dunks and all star slam dunk contest dunks are apples and oranges can't really compare.
Dat dude from And1 name is boomerang/Air up there who did that 720. Dig this, the nigga only like 6'1. He stay injured though but pound4pound he da best to do it! i never seen footage of earl da goat or none of dem cats. Find dat shit on youtube That's da coldest in the game dunk.
