Kevin Durant Posterizes 7-Footer Brendan Haywood

In the first quarter of Game 2 between the Mavericks and Thunder, Kevin Durant completely posterized Brendan Haywood with what was probably the best dunk of the playoffs (sorry Taj Gibson). Some have even started writing obituaries for Haywood after the dunk.

Even more surprising than the nasty flush was the technical foul KD picked up after the play for doing a little trash talking. I guess a nice dunk can get even the most humble of guys riled up.

The Thunder would go on to win Game 2, tying the series at one game each. Game 3 will be Saturday night in Oklahoma City.

Check out the video of the dunk and the poster following after the jump:
