    Yeah, that's hilarious...
    I can't remember all of Fred Jones' dunks, but I'm pretty sure I could do all of them when I was 18, since I don't remember anything spectacular from him that year. It was all J-Rich's dunks (as usual) that got me amped up that year.

    Yep, the only two I'm remembering off hand is that first Jones dunk and his first finals dunk, where he performed a pretty solid bounce-360 extension. It would have been a great opening round dunk, but I was still so bitter about him making the finals in the first place (then winning) that I didn't give that 360 any credit at the time.

    I dunked for my first time! I once had dunked an alley opp, but this one was legit - off 2 feet with one hand. Felt great! I was acting like Im in the post, made a spin move, then 2 quick steps and elevated for the slam. Awesome!

    Being 5'7 doesn't really help But I hope to get a late growth spurt even though I'm 19 already

    Wow, congrats. Particularly impressive that you did it seemingly without a big running start. Nicely done.

    Dunked the first time when I was 14, but it was barely and my first in game dunk was when I was 15-16.

    But I've probably played alot more than you guys which gave me an advantage and I'm now 6'7 and I was like 6'3 when I dunked the first time.

    Post a vid. I couldn't dunk off an alley oop until I could dunk with two hands with a running start.

    I was talking about those ugly alley opp's when other guy who is standing under a basket and throwing it up like a ref throws a jump ball.

    Running start doesnt give me any advantage, or I dont know proper technique. Will try something tomorrow.
