Jimmy Butler Reaches Back For Pretty Alley-Oop

Jimmy Butler and Aaron Brooks hook up for a sweet alley-oop against the Rockets.

This is just a lovely alley-oop, with a little bit of nasty thrown in for good measure. Jimmy Butler cut from the top of the three-point arc and split through three flat-footed Rockets to catch this oop from Aaron Brooks, who was also hanging out behind the three-point line. The lob was just a touch behind Butler, but it didn't matter, he adjusted mid-air for a strong finish over a not-at-all-interested-in-getting-dunked-on Dwight Howard.

And this, if you haven't seen it before, is just a cool thing the Chicago broadcast does, for dunks they feel are worthy of posterization:
