[Maniak]

James Johnson for me.

[Rockets(T-mac)]

Johnson for sure.

Okay, first let's just get Hassan Whiteside out of the way...

...that weak sauce gets a 5/10. Now, as for today's winner...

I’ve always felt that dunking on a guy in a one-on-one situation is pretty much the ultimate form of ownage. Maybe it’s not the most jaw-dropping way to slam, but no play expresses physical dominance quite like a prolonged back down followed by a rim-rocking finish. Don’t believe me? Ask Chris Dudley. For this reason, James Johnson is your winner…

Looking at the year's Posters lists. Here are some fun facts:

The last name Johnson is tied with last name Williams for most times as Posterizers (3 players each, Johnsons lead with 4 total posters).

The last name Williams is tied with the last name Gasol for most times as Posterized (2 players, Gasols lead with 3 total posterized

Samuel Dalembert, Channing Frye, Jan Vesely, Serge Ibaka, Nene, and Rudy Gay are the only players to have been posterizers and been posterized, we can call this: the Karma effect.

Of all of the Posterizers, 39 are American-born. One is Australian (Bogut), two french (Nicolas Batum, Ian Mahinmi who is Beninese/Jamacain), one Brazilian (Nene), one Haitian-Canadian (Dalembert), one Czech (Vessely), one polish (Marcin Gortat), one British (Deng), two Congolese (Eyenga, Ibaka), one Turkish (Semih Erden) .

This took longer than I thought, I'll look for Posterized nationalities next.

[T.O.RapsJays]

From Posterized:

There are 31 American-born players, one Dominican (Horford), one Georgian (Pachulia), two Mexican (Gustavo Ayon, Earl Watson who is American-Mexican), three Spanish (Rubio, Pau and Marc Gasol), one Swedish (Jonas Jerebko), two Turkish (Ilyasova, Okur), one Haitian-Canadian (Dalembert), one American-Swedish-French (Noah), one Greek (Kosta Koufos), 1 and 1/2 French (Diaw, Noah is French from father's side), one Brazilian (Nene), one Nigerian-American (Emeka Okafor, both parents Nigerian), two Congolese (Bismack Biyombo (had to type full name for awesomeness), Ibaka), one American-German (Chris Kaveman), one Czech (Vessely),

Another fun fact: Epke Udoh's real middle name is Friday.

I'd give it a 9, nice poster but not on par with Blake or Bron's.
