    They're making sure that they don't hype up the foreigner. Iguodala literally did the same dunk with two hands and they gave him a 50. Much harder with one hand. So disrespectful!

      I believe that if Rudy would have made the first or second attempt, it would've had a different impact. But after seeing him fail so many times it just doesn't hit the same.

      It was clearly a bad decision to do a behind-the-back pass, made the time expire even when a pass wouldn't affect the dunk. On top of which the "amateur" comment was clearly a joke, they were being over the top and sarcastic. Lighten up
