Steve Blake Is More of a Baller Than a Dunker
In this life, there are highs and there are lows. For Steve Blake, scoring 25 points for his new team while beating his old team represents a peak, while getting rejected by the rim on a fast break is a valley. The guy is one of my favorite all-time Terps for sure, but for a 6'3", future NBA player to not even be close to getting it over the rim is just embarrassing. Even J.J. Redick threw it down once upon a time.
This clip comes courtesy of Ryan Wilson at NCAA Basketball FanHouse who has started a series called Dunks From the Day, which includes Shaq at LSU, Penny at Memphis, Rex Chapman at Kentucky and MJ vs. Maryland so far. MJD has even co-opted over at NBA FanHouse (see: 'Nique hammering Bird).
Also, much respect to Hoops Addict for their original Dunk of the Day series. They've been at this much longer than FanHouse, but there's enough above-the-rim gold on YouTube for us all.
