    can't see the video, but the king of snatching the ball with one hand out of mid air was otis thorpe.

    I'm more impressed by the layups than the dunks. Maybe the NBA should have a layup contest next year.

    That Hawks layup was highly thought of actually. It was made as Jordan's "special shot" in the old Lakers vs Celtics video game lol.

    Lot of layup-love in this thread. I remember long ago talking to a girl that played on her junior high bball team, she said when they watched ball they were more impressed by the nifty layups than the dunks. They liked the switching and double clutches in mid air and thought that was "cool looking". Consider that its girls and they generally cant dunk...
