Main article: Basketball moves

This article is about the term, "slam dunk". For the manga series, see Slam Dunk (manga).

A slam dunk (or simply a dunk) is a type of basketball shot that is performed when a player jumps in the air and manually powers the ball through the basket with one or both of his hands, then grabs the rim shortly after the ball passes through the hoop. This is a standard field goal worth two points. The term "slam dunk" was first coined by former L.A. Lakers announcer Chick Hearn [citation needed].

temporada de victorias fáciles

My comment:

Slam-dunk implies two things. First, that a score is made, that there was a win or success. Secondly, that it was done easily, because only the most skilled, tallest basketball players routinely make slam-dunks. When slam-dunk is used descriptively, it describes something that is done swiftly, decisively and easily.
