Rudy was right to go back to Spain to play for Madrid. He earns a lot of money out there and is well respected. Good for him.
They're making sure that they don't hype up the foreigner. Iguodala literally did the same dunk with two hands and they gave him a 50. Much harder with one hand. So disrespectful!
Dude wtf that is not bad. Better than fucking Nate's hype dunks.
Fernandez was nice with it I used to love seeing him play

Kenny, "know it all", Smith 😂
Damn Kenny a hater
Kenny Smith: It’s not gonna get me out of my seat though. Zach Lavine could do the same dunk today and you would be screaming it’s over. Respect the dunk not the attempts man

He’s given more props before to a dunk that took the whole time to complete. I get what you mean but he has shown favoritism time and again is what I was pointing to

I believe that if Rudy would have made the first or second attempt, it would've had a different impact. But after seeing him fail so many times it just doesn't hit the same.

The year before Paul and Rudy won silver medals in the Olympics giving a hard time to US who gold. Bunch of bitter comentarios disrespecting Spain’s Game.
First of all if u see some highlight of Pau he is an excellent passer I think he was passing a lot in Europe, having said that the comment was very disrespectful ,telling a whole country amateur because of a fancy pass

It was clearly a bad decision to do a behind-the-back pass, made the time expire even when a pass wouldn't affect the dunk. On top of which the "amateur" comment was clearly a joke, they were being over the top and sarcastic. Lighten up
Maquina Rudy!!! ❤️💛
so underated! double standards. smh kenny
このダンク、とにかく凄かった!
Wow crazy revisiting this, Kenny would(hopefully) get destroyed for this kind of commentating now.

Um maybe because him and Pau played on the Spanish national team dummy Kenny

What a collection of non sense and disrespectful comments. Not the best night for Kenny showing how ignorant he was about every single detail of a great and more than worthy performance by Rudy
Nate Robinson was a clown of basketball. Don't know why they portrait him as a hidden superstar in video games.
That Martin comment is so embarrasing
Paul gasol bryan gahol
Kinda racist lol
How they scoring something 9 when took eight tries Of course Nat was worse in 2007 w 50 tries in Houston; Iggy true 2007 champ
