The Mysterious Dunk Poster

Seemingly twice a week you’ll hear that someone got “posterized” by a slam dunk. <a href=”http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BmN-MIbvLks”>Like the dunk by Taj Gibson on D Wade.</a> “Posterized” means that someone dunked on you, and therefore you’ll be on their poster that will go on the walls of countless twelve-year-old boys across the country. However, <a href=”https://encrypted.google.com/search?q=dunk+poster&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a”>a cursory search</a> turns up no results. You can get posters of players dunking, solo, in Slam Dunk Contests, but none of them dunking making some other guy look foolish.
So, maybe we need to end the term “posterize,” unless someone actually starts printing the posters 🙂
