DUNK it .. DUNK it good.
Its only the third month of the new year and already we've had seen some of the biggest NBA plays in history. I don't know about you but a personal favorite play of mine is when a key player of the team decides to take that infamous dunk. Although it is not something the player may think of during the game, I bet on spare time, a player is always hoping to make their mark. Dunks during an NBA game are always a crowd pleaser. It is the start of a high energy, pumped up release.
Yesterday's game (3/18) between the Boston Celtics and the Miami Heat was clearly a "sitting-on-the-edge" game. The classic rivalry between both teams allowed fans of both sides to scream at the top of their lungs, cheer on, bash and plead for mercy. We can only wonder what's next for Boston Celtics after a playoff-like game against the team who now has the second-longest winning streak in NBA history. Will Kevin Garnett come back in time for Playoffs? Will Miami Heat beat the 1971-72 Los Angeles Lakers record of winning 33 games straight?
BIG things coming your way ladies and gentlemen, we shall see.
Until then, here are some photos of dunks I had priceless reactions to. Some of the posters of 2013 (so far) are:

March 10, 2013. DeAndre Jordan (LA Clippers) dunking on Brandon Knight from Detroit Pistons, need I say more? The kids' reaction were priceless. Chris Paul staring at Knight after the dunk was even more priceless. Jordan's move was one for the books indeed.
