It's only a brief clip, and looks to be taken from a fan sitting in the second or third row. But as you can see here, Rudy Gay of the Memphis Grizzlies spins to beat Milwaukee Bucks rookie Yi Jianlian baseline, and then throws down a nasty two-handed facial in the rook's face. The crowd's reaction says it all.

Yi did finish with 23 points, but the Grizzlies defeated the Chinese national team, 86-77.

Why didn't you show a play from a few minutes earlier where Yi blocked a shot and then dunk on Gay.

To the racist above, you would get your sissy ass wipe on the floor if you ever step in China.

Mike striking a blow for correct English grammar everywhere.

Later in the game, Yi dunked over Gay as well, though not quite as spectacularly.

I guess you didn't see the part Rudy pushed Yi off with his left hand. It was an awesome dunk. Yi also had plenty of awesome dunks. There is no shame being dunked on in the NBA. I much rather have players who tried to challenge a play than sit around and just let the opponent do whatever they want. If you can't dunk in the NBA, then you probably don't belong there.

Also, if you watched the video in slow motion. Yi's hand got caught in the net or it would have been a monster block. Rudy is an incredible player, but he did he lucky that he was not called on the left hand push off and the block from Yi where his hand was caught by the net. I bet Buck fans were excited after the game last night. Rudy is also another major talent who will be one of the best in the NBA.
