It features in Fox's recap of the game which you can find here: FoxSports Video
Near the end of the video, watch the Kings huddle. Sav does something to Draper who responds with a playful punch to the face - haha.

I reckon Kobe would be more than happy if we just had a few dunks each night, even if we didn't win. Correct me if I am wrong, but does a dunk score the same number of points as a lay up?
well yes a dunk is the same as a layup, but a dunk is alot more demoralising for the opposition, and better to watch for the fans.. i also find that its ppl who cant dunk who say all the its only 2 points etc..

Definitely had an impact at the time - early in the fourth and the crowd only got louder as Adelaide closed to that five point margin.

Squid, ask Kendall from Sydney. After he missed his dunk on an open break Goorj ripped him off and told him in no uncertain manner. He continued for awhile after that as well. Fair enough also on BG's behalf as that basket would have sealed the game at that point in time.

Would Jordan have been the huge international marketing machine had he lay'd the ball up every time?

OK OK, I will just go along now and hope we get a few dunks, but still lose. Sure the Ballinger dunk was a beauty, but it is very hard to get really enthused when we still get beaten. It would be so much easier to be talking about it if we had won.

Would Brad Hill have had a broken arm if he'd decided to lay it up instead of taking another half second to gather himself for a two foot dunk, allowing the defender to reach him?

This would be a GREAT clip to put into the new 36ers adverts, reckon that might get a few peoples attention.
