Vine: Now this is what we call a trick dunk

Performed by the Golden State Warriors pre-match acrobatic squad in China today, this is slick.

With the tip-off of the NBA season not too far away, the teams are finishing up the promotional/warm-up tours. Today, in China, the LA Lakers and the Golden State Warriors had a Californian derby in Shanghai, the final game for both teams before the season starts. It wasn’t a bad game at all, with the Warriors winning 115-89, but this pre-match clip, posted by the NBA today, is our favourite basketball moment in a while. The Warriors have their own acrobatic team for pre-game entertainment, known as the Flying Dubs (it's short for ‘Ws’, not Dublin) and they performed this very cool trick dunk for the fans in China. Now that is special.
