Who remembers Josh Smith epically missing a between the legs dunk attempt in the playoffs? Against Boston I believe, then the commentator put him on blast for it even though ATL was up big. :oldlol:

It would have been spectacular. And you're right, I recall the color man (perhaps Mike Fratello) saying something along the lines of, "Sometimes you wonder if he's ever going to get it."

I think Atlanta was up 20 with 4 to go. If there was ever a time to go for it, that was it. Would have been legendary.

no pun intended

Lots of guys could probably pull it off on a fast break- but they want the sure 2... cuz they are focused on winning the game... not looking good for one dunk.

Yeah I remember I literally jumped out of my seat when I saw him go for it. Very disappointing outcome though, and since it was Josh Smith who's not exactly known for his bball IQ, it is just considered another blunder of his to laugh about in hindsight. Ultimate risk for reward factor, crowd would have went nuts and that might be considered one of the greatest playoff dunks ever had he made it.

I'm not shocked that this happened, because Smith missed a shitload of dunk attempts in the dunk contest before.

Here is a failed attempt by Ricky Davis as a Celtic. But the defense is nowhere to be found, so he is able to grab his own rebound and then do a windmill. :oldlol:

I believe he made all of his dunks on the first attempt during his victory in '05 then missed just two attempts in '06 (two-handed alley-oop 360 over a leaning teammate). In comparison to the Nate Robinsons of the world, Smith has done pretty well in regards to making his dunks.

That said, perhaps you were just thinking of his 2006 tape dunk, where he placed a piece of tape well behind the free throw line and proceded to complete a dunk that had absolutely nothing to do with the tape itself, leaving people disappointed and shaking their heads (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ute5oKE2GUo).

That would have been the dunk of my entire life but for Ricky, it's merely a backup plan.

Yep, just wanted to say the same, that after missing between the legs and opposing defender quickly approaching he goes and does a windmill like it's nothing. Takes some balls to do that in a game, imagine if he would miss the windmill aswell, that would be so emarassing.

I wish players did more of this stuff these days! You hardly ever see somebody do a 360 dunk or a real nice windmill anymore. Damn I miss Vince Carter...
