Wes JohnsonAt the end of the first half in the Lakers game against the Detroit Pistons, the Lakers had the ball with just over a second left in the half and down one. Steve Blake took the ball out from the sideline with Wes Johnson on the far side. Josh Smith was guarding Johnson, or at least he was supposed to be, and Johnson slipped behind Smith with Blake’s pass in the air and threw down an electrifying dunk to end the half and give the Lakers the lead. Check out the dunk below.
