While the Houston Rockets continued the Boston Celtics slide last night, not all went as well as hoped, especially for one Von Wafer. Wafer was deadly from beyond the arc against the Celtics, hitting four of six. Perhaps, however, the Houston guard should keep his game on the perimeter because when he decides to attack the rim, bad things can happen. Like so:
Last Rockets post of the day. Promise. It’s not often you get to see a 7’6″ basketball player get stuffed by the rim on a dunk attempt — until now, courtesy of Yao Ming (via Tirico Suave). It’s almost like seeing a futbol player miss a wide-open goal: It’s more shocking than it is funny. At first, anyway.
Brilliant choice of song, guys. Anyway, how in the hell did that happen? Can’t he dunk off of his tip-toes? Oh well, at least he has the excuse of getting fouled. Still. Yao, you can’t miss dunks. Not at your size.
I know spectator sports venues are all about involving the fans in their stoppage-of-play shenanigans, but sometimes, it’s better to leave these things to the trained mascots.
