Avery Bradley’s missed dunk is the most embarrassing moment of the NBA season

Everyone was laughing at him.

Missed dunks are embarrassing at the best of times, but what Avery Bradley did on Saturday night was special.

It’s clear what happened here: After the steal Bradley was so wide open that he went for the “casual stroll” dunk, but he was a little too casual. Bradley sacrificed so much speed that when he jumped he was totally off and couldn’t get up there. To make matters worse he then tried again, but at that point Patrick Beverley was there to block him.

You can hear the entire arena erupt in laughter, which is might be the biggest indignity in all of this. The shame.
