Message: [QUOTE="bballnut90, post: 3781410, member: 2117"] I always find it comical how fans go out of their way to post on threads like this and shame players for dunking. Let the girl have her moment and if you feel the need to chime in,, celebrate a rare athletic achievement that hasn't happened in almost 8 years and recognize that it brings more positive attention and publicity to the game. No reason to make condescending statements like: 1. how certain players can allegedly dunk at will but are 'above that' and choose not to 2. that dunking doesn't help the team (which is not true....it hypes up and energizes players and teammates far more than a layup does) 3. That it's somehow selfish and showboating. Compare that to players who make a flashy no look or behind the back pass, or those who announce their top 15 schools on social media, tweet out how honored they are to receive a scholarship offer from X school, or players that hold press conferences to announce where they're going to college or where they're transferring to. 4. Trashing her stats and claiming her starting spot is at risk. I mean really?? This is just petty [USER=7492]@DefenseBB[/USER] . [/QUOTE]
