The NBA Jam announcer calls the dunks of the year

Written by Matt Yoder on .

ESPNU's Unite is starting to grow on me.  First it brings Howie Schwab back into our living rooms, now it puts the best dunks of the year (pre-DeAndre Jordan) to the commentary of NBA Jam announcer Tim Kitzrow.  How has nobody thought of this before?  "BOOM SHAKA LAKA" isn't meant to be yelled by some middle aged drunk guy at a PGA Tour event looking for his five seconds of moronic fame because he's the first guy to find yelling the yelling of nonsensical words at golf shots humorous and fresh.  It's meant to be said over arcade style dunks.  Bonus points for the shaking camera effect too.  I could get used to this every night for SportsCenter's Top 10.

"Shalom Shaka Laka" was the title of the leaflet of Famous Jewish Sports Legends in the movie "Airplane!"

%s Fitting number 1, but of course it will be taken over by DeAndre Jordan's dunk over Brandon Knight. %s
