fun dunk ideas for next years contest

Fri Feb 22, 2008 8:19 pm

post what you would like to see a dunker do

1. baseline to baseline under the butt windmill
2. Between the legs twice.
3. 720
4. freethrow line between the legs
5. 360 between the legs
6. raise the rim to 12 foot and do anything, cause it would rock.
7. put the ball behind your back while doing a 360 in reverse direction
8. pull the ball off top of the backboard
9. jump over a 7 footer (vince's olympic dunk)
10. strip naked, light yourself on fire rip off you head and dunk it. i am out of ideas.

Dunk and hang on the ring. Keep hanging. A teammate throws you a pass...release, catch the ball, turn 360 or 180 and dunk again (alley hoop-thing...after 1st hanging you must not touch the ground)

One jump, two dunks.

Instead of dunking a ball, dunk a child or a midget.

Bungee jump from the ceiling of the arena, and then dunk/throw it in.

I think Fred Jones had an idea to have a friend throw an oop pass from the audience. that would be interesting.

I'd be more impressed with the passer than the dunker.

Realistically, I think a 360 while a player is horizontal in air would be something new.

Just a 540 would be nice.

Dunk the ball casually but hang on the rim and catch the ball with your feet while your momentum is still going and dunk the ball with your feet during a backflip dismount off the rim.

Roll the basketball from one hand across your arm and shoulders and other arm to the other hand while in air and dunk it.

lol this aint nba street homecourt. those double dunks were the worst thing to happen to the street series.

I think the gimmicks could get old very quickly, so I'd like to see players take dunks that have been done and put a new spin on them, much like Howard did with his first dunk in the second round. Something like performing a 360 after lobbing the ball off the board (or a 360 windmill), or catching the lob off the board and putting it behind the back before throwing it down.

Sat Feb 23, 2008 6:23 pm

Instead of doing gimmicks or any tricks, i would suggest doing a in your face dunk over a player to get the slam dunk good

Pull a Shaq, break the entire hoop. :wink:

I wanna see them invite matt scott (the guy in the nike commercial in a wheelchair, one of the current all stars in wheelchair ball) and somehow either leap over him or work him into the mix.

You hate the guy don't you illini.
Jealous at his all-star status? :wink:

Tie him and his wheel chair with the dunker, like the dunker is pulling him and the wheelchair, so when the dunker goes for the dunk Matt Scott and the wheelchair soar along at the same time.

- Tie up a large bag on your waist,
- Put a ball in it,
- Jump as high as possible,
- Take the ball out from the bag in the air,
- Dunk it.

Lol. :lol:

Like Kenny Smith said during the dunk contest: "YOU WIN, YOUNG FELLA, YOU WIN!"

That idea is absolutely hilarious. :lol:

Set up a quarter pipe next to the hoop, then have the dunker air off it on a skateboard and dunk it in.

one of my buddy's actually e-mailed chuck swirsky and asked him to tell jamario moon to have a big giant moon roll towards him, and have moon jump over and dunk it. swirsky said he'd pass the message along, but i guess jamario did not go along with it. booo

I suck at basketball, hence why i play NBA Live. Matt's actually one of the non elitist wheelchair bball players I know. Fun guy, good to talk to, even better player. Shit lets see a real superman dunk. Matt Scott, his chair, rockets, and an NBA star standing on his shoulders, ramp from across the court. That would be a winning dunk

Stuff the basketball up your ass then poop shoot into hoop.

Tue Feb 26, 2008 11:08 am

I'd like to see some of the stuff James White was doing in high school/college come into play, two handed and between-the-legs dunks from the free throw line. The free throw line dunk has been done a lot but if something new was added to it (or someone like Jamario Moon pulled off a dunk from as far back as in the teaser video) it would definitely raise the bar. Perhaps even taking off from the free throw line and dunking the ball on the side of the rim, ie while going past the basket.
