That would be a possible theori.
It would actually make a lot more sense :)

Hah.

A lot of guys that I block are guys my height or smaller that just fire up the shot without noticing my hand in the air. I just swat it away. Its just the same thing when some tall guy does that.

That part where his brother says he has quick reflexes and then Napolean throws something at him and it hits him in the head before he can react.

Whats so shocking about that?

Sun May 29, 2005 7:43 am

I've never seen a 12 year old dunk, never mind one who's only 6 feet at 15.

Sun May 29, 2005 10:47 am

LMAO, airballed a FT. You probably felt like Shaq or Dale Davis... :P

Sun May 29, 2005 11:47 pm

@The G.O.A.T : At 12 I didn't on a School Rim. It was a bit small, but it was pretty big when I dunked on it. How big is a NBA Rim now, and I can tell you how high it was. But now, yes, I can dunk on a HS Rim.

@Drex: Yeah, you feel really dumb, especially if its during a game. :oops:

Mon May 30, 2005 1:53 am

NBA rims are 10 feet...

Mon May 30, 2005 4:05 am

Oh, then I don't know. But I knew I could dunk on some rim when I was 12. Now I can slam on the HS Rims, nothing like between my legs or anything VCarterish.

Mon May 30, 2005 4:17 am

12, under 6'0'', dunkin on 10' rim....

no fucking words...

anyways, are HS rims lower???

Mon May 30, 2005 6:46 am

I don't think so...

If it's "some rim" then that's not anything special...I can dunk on an 8 foot rim, so what?

Mon May 30, 2005 7:21 am

I dunk 9, and I'm thisclose to 9'6'' :D

Just thought I'd throw that in, you know. Boost the self-esteem.'

Name: Chris
Height:5'11"-6'0"
Age-14
Location-Ottawa,Ontario, Canada

Preferred Position- PF/C

Playing Position-C

Experience- 1st full year (i kinda just play at lunch at my high school)

Favorite NBA Player- LeBron, KG, Shaq

NBA Comparison (and why)- unathletic Shaq. Im one of the taller and stronger people in my grade so i own alot of people down low

Strengths:Strength, Post scoring, Passing from double-teams, defense, occasional mid-range jumper

Weakness-turnover prone, unathletic, inconsistent rebounder, bad ballhandler, streaky shooting, lack of range

Favorite Move- Posting up and dropping my shoulder and rushing and laying it in :D

Favorite move youve done once: people were all on me like "you suck cybulski!" and "You cant shoot for shit!" so i went and got the ball by the elbow and nailed a turnaround fadeaway jumper

Favorite place to shoot- The key

Biggest shot: me and my friends were playing against a team with 2 grade 10s on it (im grade 9) and i got hte ball in the post, then they doubled me so i kicked it out to my teammate chris, and they went after him, so he passed it back to me and i made the shot to win the game. i made 3 game-winners that lunch-hour. and one time i got it down low and there was this HUGE grade 12. i faked him off his feet, and nailed the hook over him. and once i got he ball down low in gym and pump-faked the student teacher off the ground and blew past him for the layin.

Best Game- A few times ive been just unstoppable. like scoring every possession, grabbing every rebound, forcing missed shots. so any one of those games is good.

Most Satisfying moment- that game winning shot against 2 grade 10s

Most Shameful moment- i was playing and it was just like pickup so no uniforms and this guy on the other team was like "chris, pass" and i passed it to him :(

Most regretted- sometimes i just suck. i dont have any hustle or nothing, and i cant grab a board or hit a shot. those are my regretted moments.

Most painful- i got elbowed in the ribs once, and my sides are very pain-sensitve. i also once grabbed a rebound against a grade 10, and then ried to get into post position, but he gave me a 2-handed shot to the back. OUCH

Future- i hope to make my high school team and improve my range

Age: 16
Location: Santiago, Chile

Preferred Position: SF/PF

Playing Position: Point Forward

Experience: 2 1/2 years (not organized bball)

Favorite NBA Player: McGrady, Shaq, J. O'Neal

NBA Comparison (and why): :?:

Strengths: Post scoring, defense, mid-range jumper and occasional long-range j, good rebounder, average dribble.

Weakness: streaky shooting, stamina

Name: Zac
Height: 5'11"
Weight: 167 lbs
Age: 15
Location: Melbourne

Preferred Position: PG
Playing Position: PG
Experience: 4 Years
Favourite NBA Player: LeBron James
Realistic NBA Comparison (And Why): Either LeBron or Kidd, Im not the best shooter but in my teams i fill the stats sheets and i think i have hops for my height and weight (i can dunk with ease but not flashy dunks).

Strengths: Driving/Slashing, defence and setting up team-mates.
Weaknesses: Hit 2/2 3s one game and 0/6 the next, getting fouled out!

Favourite move you can do: Fake behind the back lay-up/Dunking.

Favourite move you've done once: I did a sweet crossover and got past my man and i was open so i went for a dunk, but another guy came and tried to swat me but i twisted and threw up a wild shot that went in for a 3pnt play.

Favourite place to shoot: Baseline 2s.

Biggest shot you've made: My school team was down by 2 with around 20 secs left and the team went for the inbound to about 1/4 court and i saw it coming. I ran and as soon as the guy got the ball i stripped it before he dribble, i took a couple of steps and pulled up for the 3 which went in and we won by 1 off their miss on the buzzer.

Best game you've played: The only good stats game i remember (we do assists, rebounds and points. Occassionally blocks and steals but not always) was wen i got my only triple double. I hit 16 points 11 assists and 17 rebounds. We also only had 6 players and the 6th player played like 4mins so i played the whole game :P. I think we lost though.

Most satisfying moment: Winning the grand final for school team.

Most shameful moment: Fouled a 3 point shot on the buzzer and the guy hit all FTs to give them win by 1.

Most regretted moment: I went for a dunk once and i went to jump up for it and i slipped and screwed my back - i was out for 3 weeks!

Most painful moment: Some huge guy tried to dunk or layup on me and kneed my shoulder which almost broke my collar bone!

Basketball Goals for the future: Dunno

This guy is lying. I doubt if someone his height could even touch net.

And no, HS rims are the same as NBA and College rims.

No.... I could have sworn that HS rims are a bit lower than College rims, which are a bit lower than NBA rims. :?
