VIDEO: Tyson Chandler Succeeds At Finishing An Alley-Oop This Time

If at first you don't succeed, try, try again. That was the motto Tyson Chandler used on this play during the New York Knicks' season-opening game on Christmas Day against the Boston Celtics. Earlier in the game, Chandler embarrassingly missed a dunk on an alley-oop. This time, he made sure to put it down.


The pass from Carmelo Anthony was also far better than the one Chandler was given on his missed dunk. All Chandler had to do was dunk it down with two hands, and the play was made. It just goes to show that Anthony is a better passer than people realize.
