    Can you dunk it?

    Playing a pickup game of hoops last nite and I had a sweet ally-oop that got me props from everyone around.

    I'm 6'3 and close to 225 right now.

    Can you dunk it? Post your stats as well.

    I never could before I started doing heavy squats and deads, so I attribute them to my success in this dept.

    White, 5'8", and not much of a basketball player. I was a point guard type when I played and could dribble/pass. I can touch the rim is about all.

    It happened in transition...A teammate stole it and I was making my way up the court...He knew I could do it, so he had a nice lob that I picked out of the sky and jammed, hung on the rim for a second to stabilize, and then dropped down.

    I smiled and then pointed at my defender as I made my way back up the court. The point and stare is the ultimate "You got served" burn I think.

    I use to only be able to dunk at given times but since doing squats and other plymetrics I can do it whenever.

    i can dunk a mini-ball on a 10ft hoop. that's as good as it's gotten...the major problem with the regulation size basketballs is that my hands are too small to palm them. if i could, i might be able to get a little closer

    for a white, 6'1", 215lber...i don't consider that too bad.

    5'11 175 .. can dunk. Never have done anything flashy in a game ... and the flashiest I have ever really thrown down was a sketchy one handed 360. I need a few more inches of vert and I will be able to do some wild shit.

    yea I can throw in down, not over someone, but I can imagine what it would feel like. I also have had some pretty sweet alley oops but it was in the open court. Maybe I will get my little punk teenage neighbor out on the court later and dunk over his lanky ass..

    Dunked first when I was freshman in highschool 6-3ish then at 195-200lbs. That same night game I first dunked in warmups (against rules lol) I broken my tibia at the growth plate. Apparently my muscles were too strong for my bones to be dunking at 15.

    I had the easiest time dunking as a junior/senior in highschool 190lbs 6-4. Being Light sure helped.

    Now I'm 235lbs at 9% bf and Its a wee bit harder to dunk carrying the extra 40lbs.
