What could be said about 'Party Down?' So many things. It was such a good idea - a different party every week is such a slam-dunk of an idea that I couldn't believe it had not been done yet. The creators of it are my friends.
Adam Scott
When Peter Schneider first approached me about adapting 'Sister Act' for the stage, it wasn't a slam dunk to say yes.
Alan Menken
I knew I was good because I was the only 14-year-old who could dunk backward.
Amar'e Stoudemire
When I'm out there flying around, blocking shots, dunking the ball, grabbing rebounds it brings everybody's spirits up and gets them going.
Andre Drummond
As a younger guy, no one wants to be on a highlight or somebody's mix tape for their best plays of the year. For me, earlier in my career, that was something where 'I'm not sure if I should go for this,' not trying to get dunked on.
Those plays are winning plays, getting those blocks. Somebody's trying to dunk the ball and you get a block and that's demoralizing for the guy that tried to dunk the basketball.
I'm not going to put my energy into dunking every time I get the ball. That's stupid.
Andrew Bogut
It's like when someone dunks... and they scream. It's all part of the game.
Andrew Wiggins
I want to dunk on Kevin Hart.
Ansel Elgort
Don't dunk your nigiri in the soy sauce. Don't mix your wasabi in the soy sauce. If the rice is good, complement your sushi chef on the rice.
Anthony Bourdain
Getting involved with 'Black 47' was like getting involved with 'Dunkirk' for me. I learned a lot. But 'Black 47' was my own history from my own country.
Barry Keoghan
As a kid, I always idolized entrepreneurs. I thought they were cool people in the way that I thought basketball players were cool people. It's cool that some people get paid to dunk basketballs, but I'm not one of those people.
Ben Silbermann
In Salford, we had fish in our tap water. I remember, one hot summer day, running to the toilet at playtime and dunking our heads in a sink full of water. I remember putting my head in and seeing all these little fish in it.
Bernard Sumner
I wanted to be a complete player, and I felt like the dunks started to overshadow other parts of my game.
Blake Griffin
I think a lot of people have the idea that all I do is dunk and all I do is make layups.
I let the dunks speak for themselves.
When I was in the dunk contest, DeMar DeRozan actually did the dunk I was about to do before me. That was going to be my next dunk, so I was panicking when I went up for my turn.
I have a responsibility and a job as a guy who gets paid a lot of money, I'm expected to perform. And 82 games in 6-7 months is a lot, and it's hard on the body, and you're not gonna play perfect every night. Even Ray Allen misses shots, even LeBron misses dunks.
C. J. McCollum
From my first dunk at 14 years old to my second NCAA Championship at the University of Tennessee, my intense training with my dad was always to credit.
Candace Parker
I'm not a role model... Just because I dunk a basketball doesn't mean I should raise your kids.
Charles Barkley
If I weren't earning $3 million a year to dunk a basketball, most people on the street would run in the other direction if they saw me coming.
A lot of guys do the pretty things. Dunking, tattoos, earrings, sagging jeans. That's the league now. They have athletic ability, but they don't know the game.
Whether it's from the biggest, most powerful city, or from the dinkiest little podunk town, there is a certain attachment and connection, and yes, pride about where you came from.
I can dunk! I can dunk, and not just in NBA Live.
I can jump high; I can dunk - nobody really believes that I can.
No matter what you do, people are gonna try to emulate you. Whether it's a dunk by Michael Jordan or a swing by Ken Griffey Jr., kids are doing the same things.
There's discussion in athletics about how sport - where they say 'SportsCenter' has ruined the fundamentals of basketball because it's - it only applauds dunks and three point shots and blocks, and I think, you know, the cable news has done the same thing for politics.
One of my earliest memories, movie-related or otherwise, is of seeing a man dunking a man's head in a toilet on television, and my mom telling me that this is what would happen to me if I ever joined the Army. It wasn't until my senior year in high school that I would discover that this was a scene from 'The Great Santini,' starring Robert Duvall.
Oh, if I played in the All-Star game, I'm playing defense - hard for the first quarter. And I want to get a couple of dunks, too, like I do in a regular game.
I just don't want to go to the All-Star game to be in the dunk contest and go home. I want to be there competing in the game with a couple of my teammates.
I want to do for rebounds what Michael Jordan did for dunks.
I'm probably one of the most competitive people you'll ever meet. I want to dunk on my nephews. I'll block my 2-year-old's shot to make it hard on them.
I don't think the Whataburger would dunk on the In-N-Out Burger, but I never really liked Whataburger or all the other burgers. McDonald's is decent, I guess, but no, the In-N-Out Burger kills them all.
I used slam dunking as a tool for intimidation.
I only dunked maybe twice a game on average.
People came to the All-Star Game to see the dunk contest.
When I was a kid, my favorite event was the Slam Dunk Contest.
I've been a dunker for longer than I've been a basketball player.
I couldn't shoot and I couldn't score in high school. All I could do is dunk and play defense.
The sea from Dunkirk to Dover during these days of the evacuation looked like any coastal road in England on a bank holiday. It was solid with shipping.
We were all flying around up and down the coast near Dunkirk looking for enemy aircraft which seemed also to be milling around with no particular cohesion.
My parents wanted to name me Karim Hill. My aunt always liked the name Dule, from this actor Keir Dullea, who was in '2001: Space Odyssey.' That's how I got the name Karim Dule Hill. Growing up, I never liked the name Karim because people would ask me, 'Could you dunk like Kareem Abdul Jabbar?'
Much of my youth was spent in the parking lot or inside a Dunkin' Donuts.
I'm not a big sports fan, but I love it when they 'slam dunk.' That's sexy.
A dunk during the game is just to get everybody pumped up, so everybody can feel like we're going to win this game or we're going to blow this team out or whatnot.
People are fans of Dunkin' Donuts. They have a relationship with the company, they go there every day. Dunkin' Donuts is using Twitter to communicate with those people. There are people who are finding value in that. There's thousands of people, I don't know how many thousands now, following Dunkin' Donuts.
My 'Dunkirk' co-star Harry Styles deals with some crazy fan stuff, but he's a very down-to-earth, lovely, funny guy.
The spirit of Dunkirk is something everyone grew up learning about. After Dunkirk, everyone came together and it set the tone in the U.K.
I knew it was called 'Dunkirk,' Christopher Nolan was directing it, and it was a war film. That was all anyone knew.
My father was a member of the Dunkirk Veterans Association.
