    He finally watched a replay broadcast and heard Clyde complaining.

    Asik's finishing always looks funny, but it is getting more and more effective.

    I think he makes those shots more than he misses these days. He can look incredibly dexterous some plays, and incredibly clumsy on other plays.

    "Why dunk when you can gracefully ballet reverse for style points?"..

    It's funny right now because we just won another game and in good mood.
    But sometimes I wanted to pull him out of the TV and smack him on the head
    when he does the reverse lay-ups move and miss. And I love Asik! :grin:

    He's been dunking a lot more lately. Someone on the coaching staff finally got to him.

    They are funny/frustrating, but to be fair, he's been a lot better offensively lately, and has been improving steadily all season.

    Asik should enter next year's Slam Dunk contest and do a reverse layup.

    Repped. Someone needs to document more of Asik's goofy plays. He's hilarious. Not funny when the game is on the line but when we win it's nice to reflect and laugh at it.

    "Nightmare" Asik should be his new nickname, Stacey King called him this when he was on the Bulls, and it actually fits his name and the Rockets being that Hakeem was the dream lol.

    Asik did this in purpose, so the could grab extra rebounds after his miss layups.

    Wouldn't surprise me, he gets pissed when people grab his boards. And did you see him grab that last rebound for his double double? Beastmode right there.
