Shattered backboard from a game 12/31/09

..not even a dunk 
Very odd, did not look like an unusual amount of force, or an odd angle (before the shock-absorbing backboard stands, NBA'ers knew that a dunk from the side could break the glass because the spring-loaded rim did no good from the side) Only think I can guess is this "grab for balance" resulted in a stronger initial force (full body weight) than the typical bent-arm dunking motion

I don't know...I'd take the delay of game to see Taylor, Chris, Will or another of our guys bring one down!
