That's Affalo, KP & Melo. And the only way they are going to get open looks is with guard penetration. We are going to be the same inefficient jump shooting team, jacking up contested 3's just like we have the past 2 seasons. A ton of east/west passing behind the arc. Yuck!

Kristaps. Wow!

That used to impress me but not anymore. He's 7'3. That's what he's supposed to do. Now if that was Grant then you have something.

MEH! I disagree man. You would THINK that guys his size should do that but they don't all do that kind of thing. Let's at least acknowledge that he was moving to get a rebound off a teammates shot and was quick, agile and coordinated enough to make that play. It wasn't the most amazing thing in history but it wasn't exactly easy either. Usually guys his size aren't really agile and coordinated like that. You could almost forget just how tall he is by watching how he moves.

Did it in stride without giving it much thought (Which is impressive in itself).

I'm never impressed by dunks, anyway, unless they come at the right time and have some degree of difficulty.

The Starks' dunk vs the Bulls remains the gold standard for me.

I do like the fact that KP can do this type of thing with no effort at all...I figure there is less chance of him injuring himself.

a putback dunk can change a game's momentum and wake up the fans. Some dunks in traffic as well.

KP should have many given his size but how he gets them should be interesting. 7-3 off the dribble is impressive dunk. Off a rebound should be a good high percentage shot. Dwill had a great reverse dunk against philly that got the crowd going. I was there. We all went "OH SHYT"!!!!

I want to see him do it on opening night at The Garden vs the Hawks.

As others said, perhaps you are missing the point. He does it in stride and so effortlessly. Most guys that big (at any age no less) can't move like that.
Once he fills out and has more game, he is going to do things that we might not have seen before. He is that special a talent. Just stay healthy.

Dont remember Shawn Bradley doing much of anything effortlessly, that didnt involve standing still.
