0.76 seconds for eternity!
A period of time barely longer than two blinks of an eye. But long enough to catapult itself into the hearts of Berlin basketball fans forever.
Alba center Khalifa Koumadje (27) needed 0.76 seconds for THE dunk of the season. He hung in the air for a full 0.76 seconds before stuffing the ball into the basket with a monstrous crash.

On Tuesday evening, the bottom of the table, Alba Berlin, sold themselves more than bravely against league leaders, the Coal Croesus and Euroleague champion Real Madrid, losing 79:86. After a magical alley-oop pass from Martin Hermannsson, the 2.21m giant Koumadje managed this incredible basket: He accepted the pass in the air, hammered the ball one-handed through the ring over Vincent Poirier (2.13m) and let it go Real superstar looking like a schoolboy.

11,240 fans in the Mercedes-Benz Arena were knocked out of their seats, the TV commentators gasped and I say: Thank you Khalifa for this magical moment and sorry that I recently banned you from Berlin in my thoughts.
Dunk of the season against Real Madrid: Alba giant Koumadje with a magical moment
The other day, that was a good five weeks ago: Koumadje reached out in a different way and hit Göttingen’s Bodie Hume in the face. Consequence: four-game ban just a few days before the cup semi-final, in which the center from Chad was missing. How stupid! Some fans, including me, were a little nervous. Koumadje had behaved clumsily too often, received a lot of fouls early in the game and was of no help to his team. His learning curve is quite manageable. And then this blow. But perhaps it was a change for the better, for more continuity.

Since his suspension, the center from Chad has been turning up the heat, recording an average of almost 9 points and 5 rebounds in the last five Euroleague games and has also been a huge help to his team defensively (3 blocks against Real).
After the game, Koumdadje praised his colleague Hermannsson for the brilliant pass, grinned and said: “Yes, everyone was shocked by the dunk!”
True! Sometimes all of 0.76 seconds is enough…
