Here’s The Taj Gibson Dunk That Inspired Reggie Miller To Quote Martin Luther King On Air

The Bulls beat the Heat by 21 points at home in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference finals this evening. Taj Gibson, who finished with nine points and seven boards off the bench for Chicago, had the two best dunks of the game. The first left Reggie Miller speechless, and presumably on top of Steve Kerr, and the second inspired him to quote Martin Luther King, Jr.: "Oh, my goodness," he said. "I have been to the mountaintop and back."
