Foto of the Year

[MaNuMaNiAc]

Anybody seen the photos that are competeing? Horry's dunk is one of them, and I don't think it can be beaten! I mean, its matrix material! LOL Take a look at Hamilton... and Horry is just flying! I hope that one wins!

Horry's is either #1 or #2. McGrady's dunk over Bradley will be tough to beat.

I can't believe they couldn't find a better picture of one of Amare's dunks.

Lebron's dunk on Damon Jones was the nastiest of the year, but the picture of it isn't that good.

[Banks91]

ive noticed year after year , the photos they bring out arent the best ones.

The angles on the best dunks are horrible, especially the Lebron on damon one.

The winner this year will be the mcgrady one, i have no doubt about that.

[BillsCarnage]

Amare's looks lame. Too bad they didn't have the one he did against Memphis(Posey?) in the PO's

[sa_butta]

I dont like the angle on Horry's dunk either, but we also got the Ginobili dunk in there as well.

I disagree on Lebron's Dunk...


He barely touched the rim...

He didn't slam it, so it really was nothing special..

I think Kobe's Dunk, Horrys, or Smith's will win..

[ObiwanGinobili]

That Ginobili dunk is sick.
thats one of the most awesome dunk photos of all time, IMO.
and I'm not biased, even if my name is ObiwanGinolbili.



I also like Allen's dunk. wow. I voted for him vs. Lebron casue Lebron's pic wasn't that great.. and it is a photo contest.

[Manu20]

Kobe's dunk on Howard is nasty and I think he will win.

[tlongII]

Josh Smith has the best picture dunk.

:lol That's what you call posterization.

[NZHayden]

mcgradys dunk looks awesom

[NZHayden]

the picture of manu looks pretty good as well

[HB22inSA]

I like Kobe's the best...

[Horry For 3!]

I think I saw this in another thread on the site somewhere.

No, I think there was one thread that asked when they were going to post the pictures, but never about the actual pictures. I think.

Tis ok, I forgot to make it on this forum aswell..



It usually goes like that... one for nba forum on for spurs forum.



:spin

[xcoriate]

Posterizing Damon Jones is nothing special.

T-Macs and Kobes are much much better, and Kobes the better of those 2.

[baseline bum]

TMac's wins hands down. Rob and the Rapist are easily 2 & 3, although I don't know in which order.

[Sense]

BTW did you mispell Photo on purpose?

Or was that the plan? :/

I believe he got lost in translation, because Foto is the Spanish for Photo.

[MaNuMaNiAc]

I believe he got lost in translation, because Foto is the Spanish for Photo. Didn't exactly get lost, but yeah, it was a mistake due to translation. I speak both languages fluently to a point that I also think in both languages. This can be a problem when typing words that are spelled similarly and are phonetically similar as well. Plus I was typing somewhat fast and didn't take notice of the mistake. My bad.

That's what I ment...



I think I know a thing or two about Spanish....

[TheTruth]

slomo wins

[Notorious H.O.P.]

Of course, we get Horry and Manu in there but if each image gets past the first round, they have to go head-to-head the next. Why couldn't they put one of them in another bracket?

[ShoogarBear]

Sweet, Slomo.

I'm assuming that's actually the same image of Horry duplicated over again. If you had the video, could you put the actual stop frames in there?

[Jelly]

Slomo,
that is an awesome shot of Horry. Great plays like that make basketball look like ballet.

[Slomo]

You are correct Sir!

But it would have to be a decent size (resolution) so that I could extract Horry from the background.

[tlongII]

This is the best picture...hands down.

I still think this picture should have been a candidate...

I think they only choose 1 picture per player?


Plus the other one is better.

You think so??? The other one is elegant, graceful and makes it appear as though Ginobili gliding through the air.

Yeah, but the other one shows a part of ginobili's dunk you never see..


He wanted to dunk that one..

and he shows the impact he felt..
