I seriously think this is a difference in cultures. A lot of my white coworkers look at trash talking and clowning on somebody as it being personal. We all know none of the shyt talking is that serious or an indictment on Knight as a player. Everybody knows the rule, you get dunk on you get clowned. Woj's stuffy ass takes it as if people really think it means Knight is a shytty player or something for getting dunked on or as if this dunk being celebrated means people view Jordan as something more than he is.
Same fools that'll be quick to hit you with the dunk is still only two points line.

WENT LEGIT
sounds like another jealous whiteboy...keep it moving nothing to see here folks
the little dude who got dunked on is taller than most of the people on this site.
but that isnt even the point. b knight isnt rudy or some random talentless bench rider. this dude is one of the best players in the world thats why he is in the nba. dunking on him is no small feat regardless of how big you are.
i cant even dunk over a teddy bear and i bet the writer of the article and all the people defending it cant either.

You can tell he's never dunked in a game, not even on 8 foot rims.
I fail to understand precisely WHY you cats always badmouth this fakkit and others, yet inexplicably CONTINUE to read them such that you're posting their articles on here.
Because when he's not whining about something he has the best inside sources in the game.
I see.
Anyway, for the sake of the thread I read the article and this stood out (also, I haven't read this whole thread yet):
So he's "standing up for the little guy", is that it?
....and people actually READ this dude's shyts regularly?
The comment section fukking killed me:
A play like this one exactly why the NBA needs to be renamed the National Dunkingball Association.
Brandon Knight is to be commended.
More players in the league should defend attention seeking dunkers exactly this way.
Stern should issue the guy a Commisioner's Award and give him a Bonus Check for making the play.
and
Think he could have done that against a Russell, Chamberlain, Gilmore, Abdul-Jabbar, Walton, O'neal, McHale, Lambeer?
and
The dunk was nice, but fundamentals win you championships... If DeAndre Jordan can hit two clutch free throws to win a game with a second left, it will be much more impressive than this dunk...
I fukking hate contrived white-people-sentiments. You can't even enjoy a phenomenal dunk without it amounting to condoning a wayward value system. Sometimes I think the goal of a lot of sports viewers is to strip every bit of joy out of sports, so everyone will understand the pain of what it feels like not to be able to dunk or contest a dunk with success. It's like old school nuns and priests who want to bring people to righteousness through fear, intimidation, and judgment. GET THE fukk OUT OF HERE. It's downright embarrassing to see a player make an amazing fukking play and be vilified for it because... because it caused someone great suffering? HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Bobby McKinley has been doing slides and suicide sprints all summer to enhance his defense. His coaches rave about his dedication to improving all facets of his game. He lost his uncle Stewart in June, delivered a moving speech at the wake, and the next day did 3 hours of defensive drills with ankle weights strapped to him like the very shackles of mankind's original martyrs. But you won't read about any of that in a mainstream media poisoned by highlight fever, drunk from the filthy gin of a me-first culture that produces and celebrates Schadenfreude like a pagan holiday. What you'll see instead is the crossover that planted McKinley on his backside, as a flashy point guard with limited range on his jumpshot and prone to turnovers blows by for a layup that counts just the same as two foul shots, or a spot-up jumper. Yet the memes began popping up seemingly before McKinley hit the floor, and twitter is ablaze with merciless jokes from people who viewed the play and have the gall to reward loose, fancy play over sincere desire to defend.
Is this what we've sunk to? We praise a player who has an advantage in quickness and ballhandling over a gutsy guy who buried his uncle, practices hard, and tries to play the game as it was meant to be played? If that's what captures your hearts and minds, I guess we diverge: I prefer to watch a defender try his heart out to a ballhandler crossing over in an attempt to embarrass a slower opponent instead of working on his jumper from 15-18 feet.
