View PostNope, and I never could...In my younger days I could pretty much get up to the middle knuckle of my middle finger up there...and on two whole occasions (LOLcwm27.gif ) I was able to dunk this little rubber ball that was maybe slightly smaller than a baseballbiggrin.gif

 

 

lol...I could do a tennis ball a few times around the college years. I loved when the gymnastic team left the mini trampoline out before BBall practice. Then I could fly like Dr. J....

RIP Innis - April 9th 2012 - you always be in my heart. :)

Had me listed as 6'1" in HS when I played ball. Was really more like 6'. Anyway I could dunk with one hand but I couldn't palm the ball. I'd have to dunk using one of those smaller bballs or a tennis ball. Funny thing is I could get my wrist over the rim. Now some 30 plus years later, I am lucky if I am 5'10 1/2" tall. Some spinal compression taking place over the years.

I'm 6'10", so yeah, I can dunk. I can reach about 1/3 of the way up the net just standing there. I would do it before games in high school while I was stretching and to intimidate the other center. It gets old with everyone asking you to do it though. Matter of fact, I hate basketball. beatin.gif

Never dunked it but , I could at least touch the rim on occasion , too many injuries to my back and knees now to try and make any sort of vertical leap .

 

Years ago I had a trampoline set up for the kids .. I said what the hell and tried it out cwm40.gif .

 

I made one jump to get air and on the 2nd time getting air

I could feel all the vertebrae in my back separate and instant pain when I landed . cwm31.gif

I now know my role .
