This is just a breath taking picture(posted it in the Philly thread also)

Well, i'm just buggin out over the vertical of this guy......those dudes around him are all around 6'8".....Look where his feet is! Look where his crotch region is! Holy cow.

I'm 5'10"......I was fortunate enough to dunk it twice, both on break away fast breaks with one hand. I was about 155lbs at the time and I barely got it in. I made a mistake and grabbed the rim and my momentum took me on a trip to crashville(once @ the YMCA in brooklyn and the other in a park in queens).....I also dunked it while shooting around with my friends hanging out on the block.

Now allegedly the rim on my block was 10'......also the court I was on when i dunked it was "official".

Question.....are the rims in the parks really 10'? do they purposely lower them?

What is Nate's official vertical in inches?

I'm just curious cuz, when i dunked it.....was I really that high in the air? Thats just awesome.

anyway.....post some pics and some physics on Dunkin the basketball, any stories, etc......just something to do.

Is Nate Robinson the best actual-game conditions little man dunker ever?

I think you should be 5'10" and under to qalify.

I remember Terrel Brandon trowing a couple down in real game action, but nothing like Robinson. I've never seen anyone better at his size.

Here is what I remember from Robinson:

• 2 handed putback throwdown vs. Houston
• 1 handed putback throwdown Vs. Maimi.
• Steal and 2-handed jam off the vertical Vs. Cleveland
• Really nasty backdoor alley-opp when he was in college.

I recall reading that Nate has a 48" vertical. The dude has amazing leaping ability. If he ever gets his game totally under control and improves his defense, he is going to be a solid player in this league.

I think they're only 8'-9'.

The best Under 6 Feet dunker ever.

He didn't need 20 attempts to complete dunks.
If it didn’t work in Phoenix with Nash and Stoutamire... it’s just not a winning formula. It’s an entertaining formula, but not a winning one. - Derek Harper talking about D'Antoni's System

You really need to learn how to make things bigger.

If she can't help you, I don't know what to tell you.

Sorry man, I was just messing with you.

I honestly have no clue how to do it either.

I want it to be known that Nate and I are similar in height and I used to be able to dunk like a mad man.

Anyway, that's off topic, but I just wanted people to know.
I just hope that people will like me
