I Want to Dunk

Jump to Comments

There is nothing else in the world I would rather be able to do than dunk. Is dunking an acquirable skill? Or is it innate? Are people born dunking? If I hadn’t wasted my time on skateboard for all those years, would I be able to slam dunk? Can I learn now? I’ll buy those dumb shoes, I’ll do what it takes, as long as what it takes is not hard work. You ain’t getting this guy in a gym.

Theres thousands of these videos on youtube, I just chose this one of Vince Carter because it is amazing and it highlights the difference between American ballin and Euro ballin. I like to think that Carter made this dunk lost his mind and Team USA was down by 20. That would summarize our nation’s basketball pretty succinctly.

    i’m with you , dog.

    we should make a 100.00 bet to see who can dunk first.

    we’re the same height… or you are probably taller.

    i’ll work those quick twitch muscles and take your money.

    i propose a year long open wager. training time.

    PS: you only like that dunk because of your latent dreams of getting balls to the face.

    i’ve had this dream off and on now since high school the closest i ever came dunking was after a summer of fierce playground ball. you don’t need those stupid shoes, you just need to pick up a book on plyometrics and find yourself some stairs and a knee high platform.

    i dreamt of dunking for ages and now im finally starting to pull off some little crap ones at practice (it still felt like i was king of the world). i cant wait till the day i do one in a game. i recomend u just jump around a lot trying to touch high objects and play a lot of basketball.good luck impossible is nothing.
