Josh Smith Drops 53

Josh Smith is four years removed from his high school days, but we figured we’d take a walk down memory lane. Smith was a beast at Oak Hill Academy (VA), and probably cost Indiana’s coach at the time, Mike Davis, his job by deciding to make the jump straight to the pros.

Derrick Rose, Dime #32Derrick Rose has officially been a pro for a few months now since being selected by his hometown Chicago Bulls with the first overall pick in the 2008 NBA Draft.

Air Canada

There are a million videos of dunks — good and bad, NBA to backyard — posted on YouTube and other sites. But this one caught our attention for obvious reasons. The dunker’s name is Henry Bekkering, he plays at the University of Calgary in Canada, and dude’s got hops. Take notes, Billy Hoyle.

Tim Hardaway Had the Best Crossover Ever

Nothing excites fans like an ankle breaking crossover. When executed correctly, a proper cross leaves a defender helpless, looking foolish. You remember when the Glove tried to trip Jason Williams after he hit him with a one-two on the sideline? White Chocolate has some great moves, but for my money, Tim Hardaway had arguably the […]
