This year’s playoff dunkilation can be described in one word: “underwhelming”. I think this is mostly LeBron’s fault, because LeBron was always good for five or ten sick dunks during the playoffs. I also blame the last dunkilation I did, which was combined for March and April. That one was so sick that this one…

JaVale McGee All 201 Dunks Full Highlights (2018-19 Season Dunkilation)
The pleasant sounds of an oboe concerto, played at a reasonable volume, wafted through the high-end sound system of the small, yet luxurious, apartment. The residence’s sole occupant, seated in a leather armchair by the window, occasionally looked up from his Kindle when a particularly inventive harmony graced his ears, before returning to his book…

Rudy looked up from his reading as the doorbell rang, the tinkling melody causing a frown to appear on his face. Had he not instructed Remi to meet the guests at the gate? How had they made it all the way to the front door? It was no matter, Rudy supposed. The entire facade of…

The lanky Frenchman reclined in comfort, surrounded by the peaceful sounds and enticing scents of his well-tended Victorian garden. One of the luxurious sitting-room couches had been wrestled out of its usual place to be brought to this spot among the hedges, flowers, and decorative ferns. The fine piece of furniture would have to be…
Read MoreDTB’s Best NBA Dunks of the Month (March/April 2019 Dunkilation)
Here’s the deal: March and April got a combined dunkilation because April’s would have been too short otherwise. However, this resulted in me tragically having to remove two minutes’ worth of dunks to get under YouTube’s limit. However, this leaves only the sickest and most vile dunks to remain, so it’s not all bad. It’s…

Giannis sat at the too-small table across from his teammate Ersan Ilyasova. Around him, the other patrons of the mall food court were enjoying too-salty food and talking happily about the purchases they had made or were about to make. Giannis’ topic of discussion, however, as not nearly as materialistic. He sipped his smoothie, procured…

February might be a shorter month than most but that doesn’t mean that there’s a shortage of sick whamjams to cram into this month’s dunkilation. Below you can find some commentary on the most notable/entertaining/disrespectful/jammerific dunks this month. 0:03 – I think this is what the kids call “The People’s Elbow.” 0:07 – I’m experimenting…

In lieu of a “real” video description, below you will find my thoughts on a selection of the dunks found in this “Dunkilation” (that is, a “Dunk Compilation”). Writing my thoughts free-form is way easier than trying to cram them into some kind of narrative. Let’s begin! 0:12 – Josh Hart looks like he’s ready…
Read MoreDTB’s Best NBA Dunks of the Month (December 2018 Dunkilation)
As has become tradition (doing something twice means it counts as a tradition), DTB will provide commentary on selected dunks this month instead of typing out a whole long story that taxes the reading ability of YouTube users to its absolute limit. It also taxes my “coherent storytelling” ability to its absolute limit. A description…
Read MoreDTB’s Best NBA Dunks of the Month (October/November 2018 Dunkilation)
In past years, my “Dunks of the Month” videos have been accompanied by a serialized storyline which stretches from the beginning to the end of the season. However, that process is too much like “real writing” and not enough like “regurgitating half-baked opinions” (which is how I do most of my writing), so this season…
