ESPN Dunk of the Night ... on Camby??

by NickPDX on Apr 7, 2011 11:55 PM PDT

ESPN.com has posted their "Dunk of the Night" and the title reads: "Derrick Favors goes in strong for the dunk on Marcus Camby". How the heck does Camby get dunked on when he didn't even play ... was he even in Utah?!? I love that they put so much effort into this video post ... did they even watch it?!? Good old ESPN ... can we see some classic highlights of Bo Outlaw before he got traded to the Clips?

that sounds better than a dunk near Chris Johnson

to which most people would reply, “who?”

Agreed … but I think that a lot of people would say the same thing about the name Derrick Favors. Hopefully Chris Johnson’s name will get some recognition in the years to come … and in a Blazers jersey.

More like he dunked on his own teammate

Who set a semi legal pick.

Team Aldridge

That's why I said Johnson was near the pick

a moving screen pushed him away of the play/hoop removing fault from Johnson

I missed ...

the near in your comment earlier too. I hate it that big men always get the “posterized” label when they weren’t guarding the guy and were often just doing their best after the defense broke down up top. I know the paint is theirs to guard but they can’t be standing alone on an island 100% of the time.

I love the comments at the bottom of their page.

They are getting reamed.

My favorite teams are the Blazers and any team that is playing the Lakers.

That was quite a pick from the Utah player.

Nice dunk I guess, but the Blazers win.

Yes to the comments above. ESPN looks silly here

But the dunk—and Favors’ overall performance—was still pretty impressive. Maybe the Jazz weren’t complete idiots for trading Deron Williams. He might never have lived down his “Sloan Killer” handle, and the Jazz probably needed to build for the future anyway. They’ve got some pretty good pieces now.

I still believe in Greg Oden. The Blazers' medical staff? Not so much.

I'd change my handle to "bringback'09," but I'm too lazy.
