RJ dunk..

[HarlemHeat37]

ewwwww..

so I guess he can still do that..now Pop just has to figure out how to get him more of those looks..

[Udokafan05]

Great Dunk

[slick'81]

fckn skywalked on that shit

[exstatic]

I just wonder if Oden has coughed up RJ's nuts yet, because they went all the way in.

:lmao

[DMX7]

I'm just glad someone out there is showing heart.

[angelbelow]

incredible dunk.. he was pretty heated

[SCdac]

Sick dunk. Damn.

[Fpoonsie]

And that's game. Fuck.

[spurtech09]

that was a heated dunk

[KidCongo]

incredible dunk.. he was pretty heated

When someone is showing that fire, he's becoming comfortable and proving himself to his teammates.

[Spurologist]

That's RJ's official spurs welcome

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

I just wonder if Oden has coughed up RJ's nuts yet, because they went all the way in.

:lmao

lol

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

That was pretty awesome...he better do that at home.

[ezau]

Want to see more of that in the coming games. When you look at the game, Spurs won the last three quarters. The team just started slow and that's to be expected in a back-to-back. Still, POP is coaching like a retard out there

[jag]

I agree. It was nice to see that outa him.

[jdev82]

it was a sick dunk. someone get a vid or even a gif. preferably a video.

[VivaPopovich]

hahahaha that dunk was sick

it sucks we lost but we had fun

they gave an effort we could live with

[bigdog]

Sick dunk. RJ looked pretty pissed. Besides those first couple of minutes I was very pleased with Jefferson tonight.

[AFBlue]

I am encouraged by the way RJ responded after an early benching from Pop...he seemed to play with a fire and intensity when he was re-inserted and that lasted the whole game.

He was aggressive on offense and active on defense. His response has to be one of the few silver linings in this game and I hope he carries this through to the future.

I think the dunk was just icing on the cake...but it was some unbelievable icing!

[completely deck]

Does anyone have a gif of it yet?

[DPG21920]

Nothing about tonight can make me happy.

[NewJerSpur]

Can someone please post the dunk at some point, I missed it trying to get back to my computer, LOL....seriously. What happened?

We made a push without the guy in your avatar to help out, got to take something away from that. Defense was solid in the latter half, when it really needs to tighten up and we got turnovers and rebounds. The losing sucks, but we played better the second night on a back-to-back. Hopefully this trend of improvement continues.

[xellos88330]

nice

[AFBlue]

I cant believe it gets its own thread.

Spurs fans desperate for a silver lining. I figure there are about a million threads overreacting negatively, might as well have at least one that overreacts positively.

:toast to the OP

Dude, Dunks like that happen on the Spurs once every 3 years.

He was also the leading scorer. Other Spurs players had just as many and they weren't scoring.

He played VERY well after his struggles early in the first quarter. I saw very few defensive lapses from the team as a whole down the stretch. In fact, the only ones I saw were the Manu gambles that didn't pay off and left his teammates stranded.

[SequSpur]

that is the best dunk a spur has done since 2003 Ginobili in the playoffs

[NewJerSpur]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4XjDjpHpwJY

Thanks. He should've gotten an "and-1" for that. That was a cheap pushoff by Oden. Nevertheless, two thumbs up on the jam.

Hey, I know why others may be encouraged. Me personally, I could give two sh*ts about those things, at least right now. I understand you have to evaluate in chunks of games, not individual games. But the fan side of me is bothered by some of these unknown variables popping up.

There have been moments in every single game that are good. That is because they are a good team.

Not in the Chicago or Utah game there weren't, but in the others, yes. Pop does worry me at times, but the decision to play Bogans more overall did payoff...he just pulled the chord to early. Still very early and guys honestly are finding their way. If they begin to put defense at the forefront, especially on the boards, again we may very well have something

[jdev82]

it aint only texans who're quick on the draw mi amigo.
btw, nice speed on the upload. howd you capture it? lpb and screen cap? anyway, damn, jefferson went ahead and made my day there

ok im done

[sammy]

Sweet! That was an awesome dunk!

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

you know...he played last whole season at a team where defense meant NOTHING and it would be really nice to see him pick up the slack on defense now that defense is the key :ihit

Best part in the whole game

The first 6 minutes of the Utah game were good. That was a silver lining in that game. The Bulls FG% was good from a defensive standpoint, that was a silver lining there.

You can find them in every game if you look hard enough.

[AFBlue]

I also think his coach didn't really light a fire under his ass, but he's in Pop's world now! Seriously, the way he responded to the ass-chewing and benching early in the first has to be an encouraging sign...

[NewJerSpur]

Perhaps, but in that Utah game that's a very small silver lining compared to what they were able to establish the rest of the game. I just think in this game for a good stretch we put more positives together on whole and gave more of a complete effort down the stretch. Had a few rays developing.

[DPG21920]

Surely. I was pleased with many things that I saw. I am just not happy about things overall.

As I have said before, I was fully prepared for a rocky start. I knew it would take time to gel. I knew the schedule was tough to start. What I thought would instantly be better was the energy level. Last year I came up with excuse after excuse on why when the Spurs would lose, they would be embarrassed. I blamed it on injuries, age, talent...if there was an excuse I tried to apply that to it.

When the Spurs brought in RJ, Hill, Blair, McDyess, Bogans and the rest, I thought that long gone were the days of low energy blowouts. Now that they have happened 3 out of the 5 games, I don't have an excuse for that.

That is what has caught me off guard the most. I don't mind the W/L. I mind the way they are losing.

Understood. They'll have to put forth the same effort they put forth tonight consistently to have a shot, but it's possible.

[jdev82]

i think he did well at the big forward spot in the fourth.

I definitely think the team can turn it around. I have not even really began to evaluate the team yet. Too early imo. Point was that I am a little surprised at certain things, even though I prepared myself for a rocky start.

[Chomag]

I gotta say it. RJ just pisssed all his PT away.:lol

Pop needs to start Dice or Blair and bench Bonner to have a good start and pump the energy level of the team. Problem is pop, When is he going to realize that starting Bonner is a waste of time?

[Ditty]

nice dunk and a stupid foul after that from ginobili im not that mad about this game lets get back on track next game only 5 games into the season big deal...portland cant beat us on our best night just a couple fluke shots by roy at the end and blake making a lucky 3 pointer thats all this blazers team is not good at all I think the spurs may have found there weakness but was a little too late :)

[baseline bum]

Shit, I didn't know he could still do that. I don't think I've seen Richard throw a dunk like that down since the one he plastered on Kevin Willis back in the 03 Finals.

You can tell that the Spurs announcers aren't used to seeing a vicious dunk like that from a Spurs player. They were speechless.

wat was odens hands doing on RJ crotch?

[peacemaker885]

RJ really played hard tonight. I thought that he really wanted to carry the load, but I think he's getting juiced out playing both ends of the court.

[Blackjack]

I cant believe it gets its own thread.

What he just did in a Spurs uniform was pretty much the equivalent of a leprechaun giving fellatio to a unicorn..

It deserves it's own thread.

yeah shit yeah that was a goooood dunk

[Spurs Brazil]

RJ was very bad in the 1st quarter but after that I think he played very well. His defense improved and he was very agressive on offense.

Play Bogans in the starting 5 will only help RJ

[ThaiFanofSpurs]

He made me smile to see that dunk even though I was upset about the game. He looked pissed and that was like the message from him. Welcome RJ... to be our big 4.

[ThaiFanofSpurs]

I agree that RJ and Bogan played well together. Hopefully, everyone will play well together as a team soon.

[#2!]

good to see RJ so intense and angry. He saw Manu get blocked 2-4 times by Greg Oden and decided that layups from 6 inches off the ground weren't going to cut it.

For some reason when I watch that dunk I hear "LETS BURN THIS MOTHER FUCKER DOWN POOKIE!"...probably timmy

[SenorSpur]

Ouch! As sweet a dunk as any Spur player has thrown down in about 5 years. I honestly started to think that RJ no longer had the hops to execute a dunk like that. He's looked a little "heavy legged" around the rim in these first few games.

It happened so quickly and was so unexpected. It was also the perfect way to neutralize a shotblocking fiend like Oden because there's no way he can get off the ground as quickly to challenge the dunk.

A play like that can usually ignite a team (i.e. Malik Rose's facial on Dikembe Mutombo in the 2003 NBA Finals). I only wished that play could've "spurred" the team to a victory.

Still it was goddamn sweet, that's for sure. I hope to see more of this out-and-out aggression from RJ.

[EmptyMan]

You can tell that the Spurs announcers aren't used to seeing a vicious dunk like that from a Spurs player. They were speechless.

"What....was that? It's almost as if his hand made contact with the rim on that layup. Is that legal? Lucky for us the refs missed that offensive goal-tending call."

[crc21209]

RJ had a very pissed off look on him in the 2nd quarter, and I knew his play was going to improve....but DAMN....I wasnt expecting that AT ALL. :tu Big-time dunk!

[Interrohater]

[spurs1990]

Reminscient of Derek Anderson circa 2001.

Surprised Juwan Howard didn't come off the bench to undercut Jefferson.

[Manu20]

That is one of the strongest layups I have seen out of a Spur in a long time........

[CGD]

That dunk was a statement: You may have one this round, but I'm the new kid in town and this is far from over.

RJ is officially the best dunker I've seen wearing the silver and black. But keep in mind I've only been a fan since '06, so I did not see DRob (except for the Finals wins and youtube clips) play. I never thought I'd see a facial that could compete with Manu's stellar highlights, but that is up there.:hat

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

RJ he's gna be the guy on the court who yells all the time lol

he does yells all the time i.e. when he get fouled/he think he got fouled :hat

Big Dave was a very prolific dunker during this time. He was the absolute king of the two-handed, tomahawk flush. If teams kept such a stat, I'm sure Big Dave would be the club's all-time leader in dunks. :lol

I don't know if even Sean Elliott ever managed to serve up such a vicious facial against a shotblocker like Oden. Many times, I saw Sean elevate unexpectedly and attempt to go "top shelf" on a bigman and he usually got fouled, lost the ball, missed the dunk or all three. I'm sure he pulled off such a feat in his day, I just can't remember.

Still that RJ dunk was the best and nastiest I've seen since the Malik facial on Mt. Mutombo.

[JustinJDW]

That's fucking beautiful. Now that's the type of shit RJ should be doing every game. If Pop doesn't like it, then he can suck my 10 inch cock.

:toast

[raspsa]

Just a glimpse folks of what he's still capable of.. he's not the sort of guy to come into a new team and make waves. He's getting more comfortable by the day, paying his dues with his defense.. when he gets into sync with the rest of the team, specially the Big 3 then it will be fun to watch.

[crc21209]

Finley's hop-step then dunks were some of the best..

The 2 on Dampier in the 06' series were pretty damn good :tu

[DBMethos]

Sweet dunk. Easily the best one since Manu on Hilton Armstrong last year. Too bad we didn't get the W, but Jefferson played with some fire and the team showed some grit during the 2nd half for once.

[Ice009]

I liked seeing some anger and aggression out of RJ. He said he doesn't normally do that, well I think he's going to have to do that and Pop needs to keep riding him, because that will help him get his game to the next level.

[Muser]

All this talk about huge dunks and no speak of Horry?

[lefty]

Breaking news:

Greg Oden will miss 3 weeks because his ego was hurt; doctors say that Jefferson's dunk may have something to do with it.

[Blackjack]

Finley's hop-step then dunks were some of the best..

I'll never forget that hammer he dropped on the Admiral when he played with Phoenix; just filthy..
