dirk nowitzki, dallas mavericks2010-11 nba playoffs (thunder v. mavericks)
12 for 15 from the field and 24 for 24 from the line…those stat lines might not sound that impressive if your name is shaquille o’neal or dwight howard and buckets consist of dunks and lay-ins (minus the free throws, of course).
this man actually “shot” the ball…game 1 to the mavs

“How do we explain it? We can’t. This isn’t rock bottom for us. Crazy thing is, we could lose every game and still make the playoffs in the Eastern Conference.

(apparently, he signed with the heat, JUST to MAKE the playoffs, oh….we get it…)

mo williams + blake griffin, los angeles clippers
2010-11 nba regular season (clippers v. bobcats)

we know mo williams has missed dishing these tasty alley-oops since lebron headed south to miami, but he sure hasn’t lost his touch - we think blake agrees…

kobe bryant, los angeles lakers
2011 nba all-star game - staples center, los angeles, california

they say that a team takes on the identity of its leader.
so if anyone out there is wondering if the lakers are ready to compete for a 3rd consecutive ring…just take a look at kobe doin’ work at the all-star game…

and by the way, he also pulled down 10 offensive boards in a glorified pick-up game…
if the rest of the lakers need to remember how the game is to be played -> #24

2011 nba all-star slam dunk contest - staples center, los angeles, california

top 3 dunks of the night…
blake’s 360 tomahawk, demar’s up-and-under 180 and serge from the free throw line.

while we’re all for creativity…biting stuffed animals and trying to dunk as many balls at once just wasn’t for us.

ability, artistry and execution - not props, gimmicks and never-ending missed attempts (see: nate robinson).
