    yeah...that was a great dunk. Did you see the look on Vince's face ... like ... goddammit.

    That's a called play though for an alley oop. You have to admit that Vince straight down the middle was pretty awesome.

    It reminded me of Dream's block on KJ.

    Both of them made a bad pass, then recovered for SWEET revenge.

    I actually scared a friend of mine that was reading while I was watching the game!


    I seen Corliss driving and all of a sudden Steve leaps in the air and creams the ball off the backboard and I yelled"oooooooh"

    Then my friend jumped and said what happened and I said you only missed the best block ever!

    He also missed the alley Steve got from Walt!

    He is a Spurs fan,he doesent like excitng BBall I guess!

    I loved the Way "HALF MAN HALF HYPE" looked when Francis posterized Williamson on that alley. And the block shot was so bad that it went almost to halfcourt after it hit the backboard [​IMG]

    Yes.. that was a great block.
    that block was selected for CNN's 'Play of the Day'
    Bill & calvin talked to steve about that bock after the game and steve said something like...he was very mad that he lost the ball and wanted to do some thing .
