JaVale McGee with off-the-backboard alley-oop to himself
 

alh1020: Well,I have to admit, this one was creative and didn't end up on the blooper reel.

George Karl has his moments of frustration with JaVale McGee, but he also sees the potential. McGee is a guy capable of making a highlight play every time he touches the ball — sometimes those highlights end up on “Shaqtin’ a Fool,” sometimes on the SportsCenter top 10.

This is one of the good ones — he stops on a dime, goes under Omer Asik, which creates space enough to pass off the backboard to himself for the alley-oop. (By the way, it seems to come up in a comment/email every time there is one of these off-the-backboard passes — it is legal. The NBA rulebook specifically addresses how you can pass off the backboard to yourself. Seriously. Go look it up.)

That was not a rock solid dunk though.... it nearly was Shaqtin again.

this guy kindda remindsme hanamichi sakuragui, character in slam dunk anime who has all world talent but is so stoopid to actually play good....
