720 dunk...

[shadowgrin]

I'm not impressed. I think Shaq did a 540 dunk when he was still lighter, and a lighter Shaq is still heavier compared to that guy.

[RSox]

Shaq doing a 540? I doubt it.

[shadowgrin]

I still remember the interview after the period/game. The commentators initially said it was 720, including the game reporter told it to Shaq but O'Neal corrected them and said it wasn't even 2 revolutions but 1 and a half, so it's a 540. Shaq was a pretty agile big man during his prime.

Of course Shaq needed more momentum than that guy, who just used his leaping ability.

All the figure skating comparisons are null. The jumps / spins they do have nothing or very little to do with vertical. My friend can do a triple axel or w.e (a 900) on skates, but just running in shoes she can do a 360. They use the skates to give them more momentum and the picks on them to vault them into the spin like someone else said.

Anywho, that dunk was insane, and after seeing his remix. I'm stunned. This guy is crazy.

[ThaLiveKing]

I knew it was possible!!

[Jay-Peso]

THat's crazyyy! I seen that on myspace a few days ago

[---]

people sayin they arnt that impressed are blind.
if a man does a 720 spin, dunks the ball and is short by basketball standings that is impressive no doubt.

in my opinion it is top 3 or 2 in difficulty of a dunk i have ever seen.

go outside and try this on a 8 foot rim, i bet almost everyone CANNOT do this.

That myspace description pissed me off tho "I hope that was a game winner"





....piss me off

I guess they make those comments because even though it's a very very very difficult dunk, but it isn't beautiful... Actually looks weird.

[shadowgrin]

That's your opinion but don't cram it down their throats by calling them blind.

in my opinion it is top 3 or 2 in difficulty of a dunk i have ever seen.

So what if it's in the top 3 or 2 difficulty of a dunk you've ever seen, what you've seen is different from what others have seen. It doesn't change the fact that some people might have seen other dunks more impressive than that, of which you haven't seen.

If I have the same height and vert as that guy I could probably do it.

cram it down their throat? the guy did a 720!

ive seen alot of great dunks, i dont think i havnt seen a dunk that wuldnt be top 10 of wat ive seen. so, that was my opinion, handle it.

If I have the same height and vert as that guy I could probably do it.

of course, but who else in the WORLD has exactly the ingrediants that makes him up to be able to do it? EVERYONE could do that dunk if they had the same hieght and vert as him, saying what u said makes every single dunk every done sound pathetic, because if everyone had the same height and vert as the dunker, every dunk would b able to be perfomed by every player.

I guess they make those comments because even though it's a very very very difficult dunk, but it isn't beautiful... Actually looks weird.

thankyou, i agree with u completely here, the dunk is alot more difficult than say, mjs free throw line dunk, but is ugly compared to it... i like mjs free throw line dunk better but i know for sure it is not as difficult to perform as the 720

[hammertime23]

Well today I finally watched the streetbal lshow on ESPN and it had a commercial with him doing that dunk over and over. So if other athletic guys on and1 think it was amazing and difficult then you less athletic people saying it wasn't that impressive should try it or something so you can appreciate the difficulty. Try it on a 7 foot rim. Also this guy is the best dunker when he can easily pull of 360 under the legs.

[shadowgrin]

It means don't force you opinion on others by calling them blind just because they weren't impressed by that dunk.

ive seen alot of great dunks, i dont think i havnt seen a dunk that wuldnt be top 10 of wat ive seen

I'm not doubting what you've seen are fantastimazinglicious dunks, what I said before means that people view things differently, so don't be surprised if they are not impressed by a 720? dunk (Read the previous posts, it's not technically a 720).

So what if they're not impressed? That's their opinion, handle it. It doesn't warrant them to be called blind based on your opinion.

you less athletic people saying it wasn't that impressive should try it or something so you can appreciate the difficulty

Hey, I'm not doubting it's degree of difficulty, I'm not just impressed by it, there's a difference.
Being a septic tank cleaner is a difficult job but am I impressed by it? Heck no. I respect what they do but I'm not impressed by it that it urges me to follow and do what they do.

[3P]

that is so sick i hardley believe it wasn't edited

It's not the National Dunking Association.

quite a few NBA players think it is

[---]

lol the last thing u said makes no sense.

i see what u mean, but the blind statement wasnt meant like that, it was more like wen u call sum1 say a retard wen they do sumthing stupid, it wasnt really meant.

and comparing being a septic tank cleaner and a man doing a near impossible 720 dunk is the worst comparison i have ever heard

[shadowgrin]

I get it.
I do that too, except I mean it when I call someone a retard.

the last thing u said makes no sense...

I was going for the best worst analogy (and not necessarily the most appropriate one) to emphasize what I was trying to say. Comparison by contrast or what shite it's called.

I don't think you've seen enough dunks. That's just my opinion, so I'm sure you can handle that.

So if other athletic guys on and1 think it was amazing and difficult then you less athletic people saying it wasn't that impressive should try it or something so you can appreciate the difficulty. Try it on a 7 foot rim. Also this guy is the best dunker when he can easily pull of 360 under the legs.

That's retarded. I dunked on a ten foot net when I was 16 and at 5'10" and I've played competitive ball for years. I've done between the leg dunks on a seven foot net and 360s on an 8.5 foot net, and I don't find this dunk impressive. I appreciate the difficulty, but I'm not impressed.

[---]

i can go thru the legs on a 7foot rim and do 360's on a 8.5 foot, its no big deal, btw im 5'4

also, how can u say i havnt seen enough dunks, when u dont know me or what i have experienced? but yes that is ur opinion and yes i can handle, btw this has turned into an argument... a man does a 720 dunk, i think that is impressive. get the fuck over it

[J@3]

Stop being such a wanker and you won't be getting into arguments. It's quite simple.

[---]

i dont wanna get into another argument, but can u tell me how i was being a wanker?
it just seems a few people on these forums are real sensitive

I'm 5'4" and I tried to do a Thru The Legs on a 7ft hoop and I couldn't do it.

The basket was in my grandparents driveway, so I tried coming from the garage, and still missed it. I had air and a small ball, too.

[---]

well i can jump alot higher off of 2 feet than one so it was pretty easy, but its not how high u jump wen goin thru the legs, its hw quick u do it.
anyways, talking abot dunking on a 7ft rim is pathetic lol

[J@3]

Sure...

people sayin they arnt that impressed are blind.

Enough?

i said all that except for the first one because Joey Jojo and cyanide were a bit sensitive, and had to take my half meant remark about a dunk wayyyy over the top and start an argument about it, ive seen that joey jojo guy doing this before in quite a few threads, turning a meaningless opinion into a complete argument. but then again my opinion does not count, because my post count is lower than 1000

To my knowledge, I've never seen Joey Jojo start an argument. Then again what do I know? I haven't been around in awhile.
