If it\u2019s not a defender getting crossed up so badly he hits the canvas, it\u2019s a rim-shattering dunk that makes folks rise up out of their seats. Sometimes it\u2019s us watching in awe as players like Stephen Curry or Damian Lillard hit dagger game-clinching threes from 40 feet.

The actual dunk itself isn\u2019t completely out of the ordinary, but the entire scene of Green going up and over Simons and coming down with such thunder is what makes this. And the part where the announcer says, \u201cOn Simons dome!\u201d That may have actually put it over the top. <\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-77igqf-0 fnnahv\">Again, it\u2019s the NBA so we see tons of dunks, but the way Green elevates and then goes up the ladder even more on Simons was a sight to behold. This was one of those situations where Simons would\u2019ve been better off not jumping. Props to him for the attempt on defense, but good lord. Luckily for Simons, posters aren\u2019t what they were 30 years ago. He still got posterized only it\u2019ll live on the internet forever instead of the bedroom walls of young boys across the country. On second thought, living in infamy on the World Wide Web is probably worse.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"flex-video widescreen\" style=\"width:100%;height:100%\"><iframe data-src=\"https:\/\/deadspin.com\/embed\/inset\/iframe?id=youtube-video-Cq7liTv01RY&amp;start=0\" data-chomp-id=\"Cq7liTv01RY\" data-recommend-id=\"youtube:\/\/Cq7liTv01RY\" id=\"youtube-Cq7liTv01RY\" data-recommended=\"false\" class=\"core-inset lazyload\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" loading=\"lazy\" allowfullscreen=\"\" webkitallowfullscreen=\"webkitAllowFullScreen\" mozallowfullscreen=\"mozallowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><span data-chomp-id=\"Cq7liTv01RY\" data-recommend-id=\"youtube:\/\/Cq7liTv01RY\" id=\"youtube-Cq7liTv01RY\" data-recommended=\"false\" class=\"js_recommend\"\/><\/span><figcaption class=\"sc-1ptbguh-0 dHvBHx caption\">Jalen Green 2nd Dunk 1st Round | 2022 NBA Slam Dunk Contest<\/figcaption><\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-77igqf-0 fnnahv\">As you can see,<span><a class=\"sc-1out364-0 dPMosf sc-145m8ut-0 hxZXQQ js_link\" data-ga=\"[[&quot;Embedded Url&quot;,&quot;Internal link&quot;,&quot;https:\/\/deadspin.com\/nba-slam-dunk-contest-zion-lebron-wemby-magic-ai-hakeem-1851312632&quot;,{&quot;metric25&quot;:1}]]\" href=\"https:\/\/deadspin.com\/nba-slam-dunk-contest-zion-lebron-wemby-magic-ai-hakeem-1851312632\"> Green has no fear as he\u2019s already competed in a slam dunk contest<\/a><\/span>, although the result wasn\u2019t what he\u2019d hoped it would be.

Because that clip is going to be replayed, analyzed and scrutinized to death just like we\u2019ve done here. It\u2019s all in good fun and happens to the best of \u2018em.
