Yeah. Well I didn't either when it first happened. I was looking at the ball. I'm sure many others were as well, it was a crazy play and and the alley oop came out of no where.

[BGriffin's Dad]

it wasn't bad

http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/.a/6a00d8341c630a53ef0148c7517b49970c-800wi

I'm pretty sure LeBron has a higher vertical than Blake. Blake gets more attention for his ability to easily posterize opposing players, rather than his hops. Don't get me wrong, but Blake does have insane hops but LeBron has better.

[HB40TheNextStar]

What?^

A week ago, Blake had his head above the rim.

[madmax]

A week ago, Blake had his head above the rim.

Lebron has his chin on the rim plenty of times in his career LOL

[tmacattack33]

Lebron does that all time. Blake has height over Lebron. Lebron has the vertical over Blake...I'm 99% sure of it.

[PrimeJohnnyDepp]

if you don't like that, you will die a virgin.

Lebron does that all time. Blake has height over Lebron. Lebron has the vertical over Blake...I'm 99% sure of it.

How useful is pure vertical? There are plenty of 5'5 guys with verts higher than all these guys. Blake can get higher up than LeBron lol.

[lilgodfather1]

LeBron's clearly lost his hops. In Cleveland he easily would have hit his head off of the top of the backboard.

[Ronin]

:applause:

[lilgodfather1]

Can anyone in the NBA do this, oter than the King of course. Well and the White Mamba, maybe the Vanilla Gorilla? Rubio could likely do it if his athletecism was directly taken from his hype that is.

Wow. Put that in LeBron's highlight Reel. Dunk of the Year.

[step_back]

At first I was like big deal. Lucas is only 6ft anyone could dunk on him. Then I saw the replay and immediately http://img.memecenter.com/uploaded/3c52a326217779fe656dac8a9e15f137.jpg

When Wade threw that lob I was just watching the ball and didn't even see that Lebron jumped over him.

I have watched several videos,blake even with his height(lebron 6'8 blake 6'10) and weight(lebron 266lbs blake 255lbs)advantage doesnt get as high as lebron. BTW that dunk,i think,should be the dunk of the year till now

Nah Blake gots him beat, keep it real

He certainly doesnt.Try watching objectively.There is no way.Blake vertical is easily 2' short off james'

[Tenchi Ryu]

Lucas deserves to get fired after that play. And you all wonder why we came into the game talking about Watson being absent. Watson would have at least moved out the way
:facepalm :facepalm

[rodman91]

Lucas will not forgetten. Good Job.

[Nash]

I've always told people that think Lebron lost athletism that you can't really do that when you're only 27 and a freak of nature like Bron.

[Alamo]

Man, that was weak. Even I could do that

nah lol that was pretty nasty

I gotta give him that one, that dunk was just OMG Sick!!!!!!!

It is right up there for me... Lebron did it in the NBA aswell...

has anybody in NBA history literally jumped over somebody like that in the NBA? I dont think so....

Just look at the timing, the degree of difficulty for gods sake... he sprints, jumps outside the painted area and literally over John Lucas, head at the rim, catches the ball perfectly grazing the rim as he smashes it while moving his ankles to avoid hitting Lucas nose as he flies over him ....

I think we might have witnessed one of the greatest dunks of ALL TIME today.

ALL TIME.

[Tenchi Ryu]

Hmm avoiding him is what makes it not THAT great. VC not only jumped over the 7 foot dude, but put his balls all on his head. No respect for human life.

It was no alley oop tho... plus VC split his legs and pressed down the defenders head with the left arm, pushing himself over him (if he didnt do that it would have been a charge)... but lebron freakin cleared Lucas, just literally flying over him NBA JAM style... its still my #1 dunk of all time... but its not an NBA dunk... so it cant be my or yours #1 NBA dunk of all time...

[ThatsGame]

Looks like VC used the 7 footer to get up higher to me tho. I just look at where his head is at the rim. LeBron just cleared the dude and picked up an alley oop in mid air..

5'11 though, and that's him listed, John lucas doesn't look 5'11 in person. It would have been a disappointment if Lebron DIDN'T jump over him.

You're so right. We see players clear 5'11" players all the time and actually complete the dunk all the time. What Lebron did was so normal and routine, and I guess I should have been disappointed if Lebron didn't do what the average NBA player does all of the time.

Yea, and Lebron James is an average player, and not regarded as one of the most (if not THE most) athletically gifted athletes of all time. So we shouldn't expect stuff like this at all. (More Sarcasm)

[donald_trump]

it doesnt have to be. just a better combination of events in my opinion. an oop will never go down as the greatest dunk for me. just because its somewhat of a quick blow instead of dribbling it in yourself and going over the defense when they know what you're going to do.
i liked his dunk over walker better than this one today.

I like dunks with higher degrees of difficulty myself. Clearing a dude to catch a ball in mid air for the slam is...well.. impossible for most people. Great pass by Wade too..the entire play is ridiculous. LeBron didn't just blow by the "defender" he jumped over that nikka :lol

Running up to someone with the ball in your hand and jumping over them isn't as hard...imo. Because you are in more control of everything.

[32Dayz]

I honestly cant ever remember seeing a player jump over another player to catch an alley-oop before.

Is this the first time in history its happened?

Oh... OH MY GOD!!! SHUT IT DOWN!!!!! LETS GO HOME!!!!

I was reallyooking forward to this game, unfortunately it confirmed my worst fears, that the Bulls aren't on Miamis level just yet.

[MooseJuiceBowen]

Oh... OH MY GOD!!! SHUT IT DOWN!!!!! LETS GO HOME!!!!

man dirk has gotta be a commentator for the mavs when hes done lmao

[senelcoolidge]

Had Lucas moved just a little to his left, lebron would have probably had a nasty fall and ended his career. Luckily everything went right.

[All Net]

John Lucas's twitter was going nuts last night :lol

[royalbluecosby]

here's some different angles of the dunk and better quality

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SufDjQFGSfk

[entropy35]

If refs were consistent then that should have been a technical foul. He stared at him for a second just like john wall against the Celtics.

[Go Getter]

If it was Boozer who feel asleep on D resulting in a franchise embarassing dunk the board would be on fire. As it were the "golden boy savior" Rip Hamilton was the culprit so it's not a big deal.

[Lebron23]

The basketball God is now on LeBron's side. I love to see him join the dunk contest, and dethrone Blake Griffin.

[miller-time]

is it me or is lebron getting up higher this season? i swear last year he had lost some of that height he was getting, but now he looks like lebron from the cavs again.

[SacJB Shady]

Lebron has dunked from the free throw line and now he has dunked OVER somebody. And it was clearly over him, not like Vince where the guy had to duck. Plus it was an alley oop. Very very filthy.

[Pointguard]

Yeah, that's just sick. Alley oops feel dangerous like crazy when you get really high and are moving really fast (you're compromised cause your co-ordination is preoccuppied with getting the ball) but to have total disregard for your landing or the human life under you, is totally wild. His clearance was all that as well. Dangerous, great co-ordination, height, speed, grace, flow, follow thru, pretty much spontaneous perfection!

[DuMa]

it wasnt perfection. it looked way too easy for him.... i wish he used 2 hands for some style

[Pointguard]

The Guy Vince dunked on was 7'2. :facepalm

It was an amazing dunk, one of the best of all time, but lets not act like it was better than VC's over the frenchman.

[chazzy]

Dunk of the year for sure. The commentators didn't even realize what happened at first :oldlol: Here's another overlooked dunk where someone gets cleared: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sQGa4aGvFpo&

[andgar923]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JYSqmfWLBUE

That's different tho.

He didn't jump over him for the dunk, he cleared him AFTER he dunked it and the defender ducked under him. Different than jumping over him WHILE in the air going for the dunk.

He should have lowbridged him. No way Bron would ever jump over me and dunk. Everyone gets dunked on, everyone doesnt get jumped over. It wouldnt have been me. Dirty play, bitchassness whatever you name. I'll be everything and above, you're not going to dunk over me then stare me down like a herb.

My only wish is that he did this as a member of the Cavs.
