Poster of the Day 4/12/11: Shawne Williams on Taj Gibson

Shawne Williams flies by Taj Gibson for a rather routine one-handed slam…   I’m not exactly sure why the person who uploaded this to Youtube decided to call it a “perfect dunk.”  I would’ve gone with “decent”, or maybe “solid”, or something along those lines.  It’s about four nasty faces short of perfect.
