In The Face x 2: Conference Tourney Facials

Dunk Score: 9.8

Share/Bookmark

In case you’re unfamiliar with the Big West and more specifically Cal State Fullerton’s senior guard Gerard Anderson, then you should know that the dude is a beast. Anderson is the definition of a leaper and has already been featured previously in an ITF, after banging on UCLA’s Nikola Dragovic in an (sorta) upset win over the Bruins at Pauley Pavilion earlier this season. During the Titans Big West Tourney first round game against CSUN, Anderson took advantage of a little guy during a fast break, nearly jumping over Vinnie McGhee. Coincidentally McGhee now knows what “Chin Nuts” really are.

In The Face: High School Edition

Dunk Score: 9.7

Share/Bookmark

Now what we have right here is Pierre Warren, a senior guard at Marbury High School in Alabama, banging all over the life of some unsuspecting square. Warren is a beast and at only 6′1, has a boost that you can’t help but respect. Basketball is Warren’s 2nd sport as he is more known for his exploits on the football field, committing to Jacksonville State last month where he will join his older brother Wesley, who is also a member of the football team.

This video claims that this dunk is Warren’s last high school field goal and if so, he definitely went out on top. The dude he banged on was completely demoralized, and appears to fall on his face immediately after getting sharted on. Somebody please wipe that dude’s face asap.

In The Face: Amar’e Stoudemire Is A Grown Azz Man

Dunk Score: 9.7

Share/Bookmark

It’s a good bet that Spurs guard Richard Jefferson probably got a bunch of calls, texts and bbm’s from friends and family wondering what the hell he was thinking trying to block Amar’e Stoudemire’s dunk attempt. Odds are he wasn’t thinking, “damn, this dude is about to shart all over my life,” or else he would have just done the safe thing and moved out the way. Instead Jefferson will be the subject of ridicule for the foreseeable future and should think twice next time he tries to get some heart against a freak of nature like Stoudemire.

In The Face: Ryan Hollins Bangs On Nenad Krstic

Dunk Score: 9.5

Share/Bookmark

Ryan Hollins may be something like a 7-footer, but he still gets up like a Disney/Pixar movie. Hollins has made a name for himself in the League for giving dudes facials and this was the case Friday when the T-Wolves took on the Thunder. Nenad Krstic should have knew better than to try and go chest-to-chest with Hollins, but then again Krstic is a foreigner so he already has a penchant for getting yammed on.

King James Beasts A Beast

Share/Bookmark

I know the Cavs have lost 3 straight games, and everyone wants to be quick to bash the Jamison trade, but one thing is for certain–you can’t blame King James. LeBron is doing everything he can to help his team win, like he did on this play, timing out Dwight Howard shot and not even showing him the courtesy of blocking it into the 20th row. Instead King James just grabbed snatched the ball out of the air with 2 hands and took it coast-to-coast for the bucket. Now that is what you call a beasting, but unfortunately the Magic got the last laugh, but the Cavs proverbial monkey azz in crunch time.

Even with the addition Jamison (which the team didn’t really need) the Cavs roster is essentially what you get when you lean a little bit closer to see that them roses really smell like boo boo. Big Z was playing solid and relying on Shaq to finish the season is risky, but those are decisions that Danny Ferry gets paid big cheese to make and God bless him for having the marbles to make them. But without a ring, it’s a safe bet that LeBron will make his next move his best one next season, whether that be staying in Cleveland or making a move remains to be seen.

In The Face x 2: Ray Allen Gets Best Of Both Worlds

Dunk Score: 9.1

Share/Bookmark

Ray Allen may be getting up there in age, but he still has a little be left in the tank as displayed by this fastbreak bang-out over Shannon Brown last Thursday. Ray-Ray was probably happy that he didn’t get dealt after rumors circulated that his days in Boston may be numbered. After Brown’s nasty performance in the dunk contest, preceeded by a much-hyped campaign to “Let Shannon Dunk,” it might be time for all those salty at him to join the “Watch Shannon Get Dunked On” campaign. Ray Allen would serve as the founding member.

Later on in the game Allen was a victim of the what goes around comes back around phenomenon as Lamar Odom caught him slipping and banged over him much like Derek Fisher got yammed on by Corey Brewer in the not too distant past. I’m pretty sure that if Allen could have given back his dunk on Shannon Brown, to avoid getting way more demoralized by Odom, he would.

In The Face: Ariza Sheezas All Over Okur’s Life

Dunk Score: 9.7

Share/Bookmark

Throughout his career Trevor Ariza has made a name for himself by dunking on many a dude’s grill, so this bang-out on Mehmet Okur isn’t too surprising. Ariza gets so high that he doesn’t even have to dunk, instead just throwing it through the rim, which is more embarrassing then actually getting dunked on. Okur got caught in no-man’s land, and there was really nothing that he could do to avoid the inevitable. Somebody please wipe Okur’s face.

In The Face: Gallinari Is Casspi’s Dunkbait

Dunk Score: 9.4

Share/Bookmark

After catching Danilo Gallinari slipping right before the start of the All-Star break, Kings rookie Omri Casspi got him again during the Rookie-Sophomore challenge Friday night. Casspi went chest-to-chest with Gallinari and yammed on him nicely with the left hand, somewhat similar to how he got him in Madison Square Garden a few days ago. Similar to what a prag must feel like in the pen, Gallinari has become Casspi’s dunkbait in less than a week. Mazalteezy my neezy!
