Jordan Crawford’s dunk on LeBron James has finally surfaced on video.
And it’s disappointing.
The initial video was confiscated by Nike officials and reports out of the LeBron James Skills Academy were that Crawford, a guard at Xavier, threw one down so hard on King James, that the superstar was sent reeling backward.
It was an urban legend in the making. Crawford did interviews on ESPN. He was a star.
Precisely because the rest of us had never seen the dunk, we imagined how spectacular it might have been.
Now that it’s here for all of us to see, it’s plainly obvious that it wasn’t as spectacular as everyone made it out to be.
