Don't know if u guys saw it or not. But for as much crap as people were giving him about not being able to dunk, thought I'd start the thread.

And with authority. And he looked really good doing it. In traffic. On the run. 7'1". Bright future with him ahead.

he dunked from the right side of the rim also... not from underneath.

He is cooler than that guy who with the remote control helocopters at the mall eating mac n cheese.

For some reason I believe he prefers to dunk on the move, while somewhat stationary he likes to shoot the soft hook or the jump shot he is developing. It was good to see and powerful with authority. Nobody was going to stop that DUNK.....
Was thinking the same thing.

It's not uncommon to have a strength of jumping off one foot vs. jumping off of two.

He can, the problem is he has to bring the ball down before going up which leads to him getting stripped. In those cases I would prefer he just laid it in.

The intensity of that play... is exactly what this team needs as a whole

Agreed, everyone raves on Olaseni but Woodbury was on the court for much of that run in the first half. In the minutes he played Woodbury was effective.

woody has a better low post game than gabe
the spacing in the half court is not good - too much lateral movement, rather than penetration towards the basket, by the pgs, and defenses don't go out on iowa's wings, because they lack shooters. combine this with mediocre to bad entry passes (a good chunk of turnovers this year have come from poor feeds to woody off the wing -- a Mr. Davis bounce pass clinic could do this team a world of good), and woody rarely gets the ball in his hands when he has good position, which is often. his close misses stand out, but what a lot of fans miss is all the times he has the defender on his hip in the low block and nothing comes of it. gabe gets the putbacks and the run-outs, but woody has a legit low post game.
jok and ogs need to be consistent 3 ball threats next year, and gesell needs to transfer his full-court drives to half-court situations. if those things happen and the spacing gets better, woody makes a huge scoring leap next year.

I think this is the problem (I don't think it's that big of a problem, but certain people harp on it), he can't grab a board and rise up to dunk it. In order to dunk it he needs to be set, but that allows the defense to react.
