Soldier Tries To Dunk Off Trampoline, Fails, Rips Net, Delays Game 13 Minutes

Wow what a long title.  And a non-Wizards story.  I just happened to check out NBA League Pass at the time that this happened in the Suns @ Magic game.

It was soldier night in Orlando and they had a guy come out and attempt a dunk off a trampoline.  The soldier airballed the dunk (Jan Vesely style) and instead of grabbing the rim ended up grabbing the net, which snapped out of the rim.

The game was delayed for 13 minutes as the "net guy" tried and failed to weave the net in the rim correctly so he had to start over and re-weave it.

Latest Trade Rumor: Shaq & The Phoenix Suns

A lot of good stuff in the Chad Ford article today, talking about possible trades for the #5 pick including:

"The Suns could do something with Shaq."

PG: Javaris Crittendon
SG: Gilbert Arenas
SF: Caron Butler
PF: Antawn Jamison
C: Shaq

Pretty vague statement. Not sure that this would be a good thing if it involves getting rid of Etan Thomas and upsetting Brendan Haywood. I can't see Shaq in a Wiz uniform anyway. Shaq would play limited minutes, but can still pound it inside better than anyone the Wiz currently have. He would bring in the crowds as well. Orlando, Miami, Phoenix. Warm weather. Shaq won't want to be here.
