I honestly don't know why everyone is so excited about this? You've got LBJ, one of the most athletic players in the league, blocking Tiago who is extremely UNathletic. Its not like he met him at the top of the box or anything. The only impressive part is how weak Tiago is...Lebron straight up stopped his dunk motion. He should have tried to put LBJ in the rim lol!

Cliffs: Lebron is strong, TS is not. My thoughts lol

I was at the game, and perfectly in line to see the dunk at 0:30. I've followed ball for 20 years and hands down this was the most in-human looking dunk I've ever seen. Coming in sideways, and he totally had to duck to avoid serious injury. Can't even explain the energy in the gym after it. Kenyon Martin got up and started dancing, a dunking fool was in shock.

It's normal to plant and rotate around the stronger leg in a 2-leg jump in basketball. I would argue you plant first the leg that has the best hip control and strength, and that first leg will actively participate more than 50% in the actual jump, the second leg coming to stop horizontal momentum and help in the braking more (all this while the first leg continues to load up to generate power).

If you look at the best dunkers, as soon as they touch the ground with their 2nd leg they IMMEDIATELY start going up. So the 2nd leg doesn't really have time, nor position, to generate a lot of power. It's the 1st leg that is doing the vast majority of power generation.
