Well, after all of the wait, that rare footage of LeBron James getting dunked on by Jordan Crawford has surfaced. TMZ.com, the purveyor of all things gossip, got their mits on the tape (for a suitable price, I’m sure).
As I’ve been tweeting today, the video is as anti-climactic and poorly filmed as you would expect.
Thanks have to go to Ben of That NBA Lottery Pick for alerting me first to the link going up. Follow him on twitter.
Almost two weeks ago when this happened, we discussed the fact that had LeBron not held back footage of “the dunk” then it wouldn’t have been such a big deal. Granted, the footage we would have seen would have been shot by professional camera men and hence would have been clearer, but it still wouldn’t have been the first time a superstar was dunked on.
Now we can all move on.
UPDATE: Thanks to Don of WithMalice, here is better quality footage from eBaum Nation
