seriously i wonder if he doesn't understand. Playoff time and u too busy showing out like you're freakin retarded. Thats why all the new young talent that come in the nba don't live up to be shit that they talk about. Only new young dude out here thats not showing out is Kevin Durant. That dude seem cool
considering what the score was at that point, that missed dunk didnt really mean much at all. people complaining how it was immature and all, imagine if he made it, it would be a whole different story.
@xxgtfanxx you dont do that in the playoffs, and if you attempts it, at least make sure you finish, you cant give away free points in the playoffs just because you want to show off, doesnt matter if youre up by 2 or by 50 points
@illman300 Dude it was 82-102 with 4 minutes left, I know that they can get away with some fun tricks even if they miss. He just wanted to add insult to injury and who cares anyways they got the rebound.
@Hinasil you see thats the problem, the playoffs are not about fun tricks, its about playing as hard as you can from the begining to the end...plus doing something like this can give motivation to your opponent, and in the nba where momentum is one of the most important, if not the most, that can turn the series around completely...in this case it did not happen but you do not do that in any professional sports, especially not in the playoffs
"The Magnitutde"? the "Position he's in right now". . .I think he does. . .a 20point lead with 4min left and he's trying to entertain the home crowd. Dunks are what sells so stop with the envious commentary.
Yeah.. I also watch his funny commentaries on NBA 2K11, and seriously CPU does that in the game... it modifies the game on some point..they usually run 8-0 to 12-0 run if the CPU is catching up... You are goin to experience lousy plays, every shot of yours will miss and top of that the ridiculous 3 point shots by CPU...

You are goin to experience lousy plays, every shot of yours will miss and top of that the ridiculous 3 point shots by CPU...
does anyone really care he tried this? like really, it's not a big deal. Most of these guys grew up on the street and this is what they did. Just in the back yard with some friends. Just playing ball. So why can't he just have some fun. He's just in a bigger back yard playing with bigger friends with more people watching.
this is what people want. I dont' see anything wrong with it.
I respect Josh Smith for trying this, if you never take a chance and try for greatness you can never achieve it. Sure he missed it but just think if he had made it, would have been the first between the legs ever in an NBA game. In my opinion it's about time someone had the guts to try it.
You have to wonder if he understands. You have to understand if he knows that people pay hundreds of dollars to watch him perform. You have to understand if the average NBA fan wants to see a spectacular dunk at the end of a drama-free, blowout game in the playoffs. You have to wonder if he understands.
@MrYoungprodigy24 Respect? Why should the Hawks respect a team with whom they're beating by 20+ points? The NBA is about scoring...beating the other team...and it's the playoffs...I be DAMNED if I would EVER Let up in a playoff game, regardless of score!
WTF is Mike Fratello talking about? "The magnitude, the position that he is in right now?" They're up by 20 points with less than 5 minutes remaining!
@Kidz24 ya cause obviously the crowd hasn't had anything to cheer for in a 20 point lead all night... he needs to learn how to respect the game... just because u beat a team big doesn't mean that u have the right to disrespect them... he needs to have some class cause just a few years ago his hawks were on the opposite end of this on a daily basis.
@RedDragonAirsoft yea so i guess mike fratello is a bitch in your eyes as well? He's an average player in the history of the nba. Nothing special. He needs to have some class and respect cause he hasn't done shit to earn it. This isn't the dunk contest for him to show off in so play the game properly.
@RedDragonAirsoft ha that's rich. Miami is my least favorite team in the league. If that was the 80's or 90's and he tried that in the game somebody would have rushed him from behind and knocked him on his ass. That's what i miss about the NBA.
@jaimathur STFU, they did this like crazy in the Jordan Era, Kobe would do this and still does, and VC, and T-Mac also did this on a nightly basis. J-Smith should suck a d'ck though for calling Westbrook a chump for getting that assist late in the game, but he does this to Miami. THE GAME IS STILL ON UNTIL THE FINAL BUZZER.
at first i was like damn how embarassing, then i looked at the score, then i thought, well maybe not that embarassing, and im a heat fan :( but its gonna be different next season :)
why does the commentator say that at the end?! "Sometimes you wonder if he understands?" i think he did understand that he's up by 20 in the 4th with 4 minutes to go! commentator needs to chill...
@DJFreudian He's saying he has no grace in winning and that as a role model to some kids that's not the type of sportsmanship he should be exhibiting.
@Koinuboy Where's the negative display of sportmanship though?!?! I don't see absolutely anything wrong with the dunk attempt. No grace in winning?! I think if i was a fan of the Hawks and my team was having a blow out, i would want to see something cool like that...
lebron havent made a between the legs dunk in game ?? not since high school in the rookie game there was called a foul.. only tayshaun prince and ricky davis have made it in game :)
lmfao, this man tried to put it between the legs in a playoff game!
If he made that it would have been up there in top dunks of all time, but he clearly did not have enough NRG (as 2k would say it) to even get off the ground on that one, LOL
when ur playing in the nba, ur not hurting anyone's feelings. josh smith commented on his dunk, apologizing to the miami heat... now if he did that in high school and then apologizes, that's fine. but in the nba.. ur playing a man's sport. keep doing whatever you think is right. and besides, when could he have done this? when they would be down by 5? yeah right. up by 20 was the best way.
@Harsh1514 That series was intense. The heat and hawks we're hating on each other. Your up by 20 in a heated game and you go for a 360 dunk? He was just looking to piss em off even more. Well idk if he was TRYING TO but I wouldve been pissed if your gloating when up by 20 and trying to embarrase the other team.
Look up the knicks nuggets fight. The nuggets were up by 40 in the fourth and J.R smith was on the breakaway about to do a sick dunk when he was fouled hard as hell.. Resulted in a fight
@animebrawler That is true... I wonder what would have been if he actually did make it in. That missed dunk made so much buzz... But, he's got a lot better. Over the past year he hasn't even attempted a dunk like that.
Nobody cared when lebron did it just because he made it. No one looked at lebron like "Oh, what a show off." They said "Oh, what an incredible play!" Dumb to try? Yes. Unfair that lebron makes one and everybody loves it, but J-Smoove misses and everyone hates him? Also yes.
should have just done a normal dunk instead of trying to impress the fans. they were up by a bunch anyway & they got the rebound so it doesn't really matter
first off, a player has the right to do wathever type of dunk he wishes and second. this aint no simpathy contest. you are not suppose to care what the other team thinks
Those are the playoffs, fuck runnin the score up and worrying about feelings. You're in the playoffs for a reason, and you're job is to defend me. If you can't stop me from scoring, I damn sure ain't just gonna roll over and not score just so you don't get your feelings hurt :]
If you're going to attempt it, you better make it. If you crush it, you'll be a genius. If you jack it up, you will look like an idiot. There's no middle ground...a layup may be boring, but it doesn't make you look that stupid.
I don't think its a big deal to try a between the legs dunk when up by 20 if its the regular season. But this was in the playoffs. You got atleast create the impression your taking yourself seriously during playoff basketball
Nah, but when you saw Jordan do crazy dunks no one cares. When Carter 360'd all the time, no one had to apologize. I am a Heat fan and I thought they took this completely over the edge.
Well if they didn't do them when their teams were up by 20, when else? If they do it in a different situation that could have risked an easy basket, why is Smith's dunk attempt so bad? He had nothing to risk because they had the win in the bag and instead of waiting around for 4 minutes, he gives the crowd something to see.
2 point is 2 points!!!!!! if you lay it up if you dunk it shoot it...its still 2 points. he is an entertainer, they were in front of the home crowd. they are playing the defending champions, what better way to send a statement to them. i wish everybody would give the fans they moneys worth like josh tried to do.
jcorlieon. you should invent a trick shots nba then budy.. if this kinda stuff happened every game the nba would be lame.. this kinda stuff is for all star weekend.
in his defense he just wanted to do something special for the home crowd. at the same time it was just a selfish act to get on sportscenter.... and well he succeeded
Lol Why does he gotta do that? make that a normal dunk and it's 2 points... yet a missed dunk and no points... Simple point not something that will have people laughing at you
Wow, please don't say he shouldn't of done that just because they were in a playoff game, that's complete bullshit. Sure amazing things happen but its just another game, you can go look up kobe missing wide open fastbreak dunks because he tried to add some 'flavor' to it, stop critisizing j smoov because of trying to do a dunk..please.
All of you gays who say "kid needs control", "he shouldnt have done that" etc. WTF do you know about basketball?
They are up 20 and in no chance could they lose that game. The crowd is on their feet. A dunk of any kind would send people into frenzy... and look at that!!! A fastbrak!! Smith is open!! OH NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
He missed the dunk, BIG FUCKIN DEAL. If he'd have made it it would be the best play in a couple of years. Basketball is played for fans and for fun.. DO IT J-SMOOVE you dBEST
you dont know anything about basketball. LOL this is a game of basketball dumbshit. you play the game not the crowd. people sometimes get carried away when the crowd is like that. If he makes it then yes it'd be great. But did he? NOO SO STFU AND GO WATCH SOMETHING LIKE SPONGEBOB
Man, I remember when he missed that. One of the most disappointing moments in the playoffs for me. Along with Denver's bad inbounds passes and Orlando's cutting Rafer Alston out of playing time. I love seeing highlight plays. Who cares if it's a fricken playoff game, there up by TWENTY POINTS. Playoff dunks are always more special than regular season dunks. If he made it, all the better. Try it again next year Josh.
my nigga josh smith...i hope the coach or one of the veterin players (mike bibby) told him not to do that any more.....even though it would have been hella fye...and yall please stop saying stuff (haters)..they write if kobe or lebron did it yall wouldent say anything....

If you're going to attempt it, you better make it. If you crush it, you'll be a genius. If you jack it up, you will look like an idiot. There's no middle ground...a layup may be boring, but it doesn't make you look that stupid.

I don't think its a big deal to try a between the legs dunk when up by 20 if its the regular season. But this was in the playoffs. You got atleast create the impression your taking yourself seriously during playoff basketball

WTHELL is the commentator saying?? There're up by 20 points, of course j smith can do that.

who cares, theyre winning by 20
joeyisballer 2 years ago
Nah, but when you saw Jordan do crazy dunks no one cares. When Carter 360'd all the time, no one had to apologize. I am a Heat fan and I thought they took this completely over the edge.
Beansyom 2 years ago
I doubt Jordan or VC tried to do crazy dunks when their teams were up by 20.
LakersDynasty42 2 years ago
Well if they didn't do them when their teams were up by 20, when else? If they do it in a different situation that could have risked an easy basket, why is Smith's dunk attempt so bad? He had nothing to risk because they had the win in the bag and instead of waiting around for 4 minutes, he gives the crowd something to see.
Beansyom 2 years ago
It has less to do with the score and more to do with his lack of respect for his opponents.

i dont think missing a hard dunk makes you immature if i was him id do it again there up 20 and we all know he can make that dunk
tbone072892 2 years ago
2 point is 2 points!!!!!! if you lay it up if you dunk it shoot it...its still 2 points. he is an entertainer, they were in front of the home crowd. they are playing the defending champions, what better way to send a statement to them. i wish everybody would give the fans they moneys worth like josh tried to do.

in his defense he just wanted to do something special for the home crowd. at the same time it was just a selfish act to get on sportscenter.... and well he succeeded

I have no problem with this dunk. Because Josh Smith is capable of completeing this dunk. Plus they are up by 20.

Laughfiend65 2 years ago
Wow, please don't say he shouldn't of done that just because they were in a playoff game, that's complete bullshit. Sure amazing things happen but its just another game, you can go look up kobe missing wide open fastbreak dunks because he tried to add some 'flavor' to it, stop critisizing j smoov because of trying to do a dunk..please.
nomerybuddy 2 years ago
All of you gays who say "kid needs control", "he shouldnt have done that" etc. WTF do you know about basketball?
They are up 20 and in no chance could they lose that game. The crowd is on their feet. A dunk of any kind would send people into frenzy... and look at that!!! A fastbrak!! Smith is open!! OH NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
He missed the dunk, BIG FUCKIN DEAL. If he'd have made it it would be the best play in a couple of years. Basketball is played for fans and for fun.. DO IT J-SMOOVE you dBEST

you dont know anything about basketball. LOL this is a game of basketball dumbshit. you play the game not the crowd. people sometimes get carried away when the crowd is like that. If he makes it then yes it'd be great. But did he? NOO SO STFU AND GO WATCH SOMETHING LIKE SPONGEBOB
DukeyLee714 2 years ago
Man, I remember when he missed that. One of the most disappointing moments in the playoffs for me. Along with Denver's bad inbounds passes and Orlando's cutting Rafer Alston out of playing time. I love seeing highlight plays. Who cares if it's a fricken playoff game, there up by TWENTY POINTS. Playoff dunks are always more special than regular season dunks. If he made it, all the better. Try it again next year Josh.
