Oh, you haven't heard of the NBA superstar Jeff Burton? Maybe that's because he drives a car in the NASCAR series. Though, that didn't stop Orlando guard J.J. Redick from throwing down on him in a game of "horse".
Actually, the game of "horse" was modified into a game of "DAYTONA" since it was part of a promotion(press release here) for the upcoming Pepsi 400 race at Daytona International Speedway. By all accounts Redick unsurprisingly beat Burton, though Burton did manage to give Redick a "D". However, it seems that Redick took this game pretty seriously as he was dunking as part of his shot selection.
"When Redick dunked or nailed a deep three-pointer, Burton wisely surrendered his option to Magic community-relations ambassador Nick Anderson."
Ok, I can understand shooting three-pointers, but dunking? Come on, Burton is a 5'7" NASCAR driver. You can see the difference in height between him and the 6'4" Redick in these photos of the event.
Though, with the limited minutes he played during his rookie season I guess Redick's got to showcase his skills at all times. As long as they were keeping him from drinking some white wine spritzers, and climbing behind the wheel of one of those NASCARs I would consider this promotion a success. And, as always, welcome to Orlando J.J.!

What a pussy you are dude, JJ was a beast in college and you have to act like a punk and criticize his shooting skills or the drinking incident??? what a punk ass moron you are, probably a tarhole aren't you? JJ would dunk on your scrawny white ass too and I'd love to see him do it, you pathetic tiny dicked fag.
Thanks for leaving your comment Mr. Anonymous. If you took off your Duke blinders you would see that I actually didn't criticize Redick's shooting skills at all. However, I did point out the absurdity of him using dunks in a game of "HORSE" against a NASCAR driver.
To answer your question, no, I'm not a UNC Tarheel. And in all honesty, I think that Redick has played great for Orlando this season, but there is no way that I would let him dunk on me.
