Who Dunked It Better? Old Men Edition

Gerald Wallace spent his prime years putting on a show for a small market. Stuff like this happened every night:


What differentiated Wallace from other high flyers around the league at the time was that no one showed as little regard for their own well being as he did. His Wiki page provides adequate insight into the beating he has taken.

We can understand why Gerald isn't particularly pleased being on a rebuilding Celtics roster at this stage of his career. We are grateful however that he busted out this nasty dunk last night.



And then there is Kobe.
At yesterday's training session, Bryant was caught "elevating and detonating" like a 35 year old with one functioning Achilles. In all seriousness, it is great for the Lakers and the league to see this level of progress.


Knowing Nique successfully recovered for a torn Achilles at a similar age (he averaged close to 30ppg in his first season back), we have reason to be optimistic that Kobe will be competitive on his eventual return.
