Players Top Ten Vertical Leap

[Ikill]

i just saw that!!!!! hahahahahahahaha

carmelo does NOT have a 41" vertical leap!!!! LMFAO!!!! hahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahaha

and the funniest thing is......... all over the net it says his vertical leap is 41".... WTF!!! how is that possible...........

you know what 41" means to a height of 6'8" ????? i will draw a mathematical solution of this matter........... brb!

He has a 34 inch vertical

[pauk]

Ok... i am gona prove to you why say Carmelo does NOT have a 41" inch vertical leap or Bernard King does NOT have a 46" vertical leap.............

Carmelo is 6'8" or 203 cm or 80 inches tall right....... and has a 41" inch or 104 cm vertical leap right........

so if you take his 6'8" height (80 inches)... and lift him up 41" inches..... that is a total of 121 inches (~308 cm!!!!!)!! that means his top of the head is supposed to be AT THE RIM!!

a basketball hoop... is at 10 feet (310 cm... 121-122 inches)...............

HAVE YOU SEEN CARMELO EVVVVVVVVVEERRRRRR HAVE HIS HEAD ANYWHERE NEAR AT THE RIM OR OVER THE RIM?????????? EVER????


noww........... IMAGINE BERNARD KING........ he is 6'7"....... and has a 46" inch vertical........ 1 inch shorter than CARMELO... but still makes it a 4 inch advantage ALL IN ALL............ that means when he jumps his top of the head is supposed to be 4 INCHES ABOVE THE RIM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

IM SURE WE CAN FIND A CLIP OR A GAME OR A PIC OF BERNARD LOOKING LITERALLY DOWN INTO THE RIM LIKE IN NBA JAM????????? LMFAO

Tmac and Jordan is bullshit. Funny Vince at 43 getting outjumped by almost everyone on the list. Absolute garbage list

Tmacs is 40

the only one i have seen LIVE UP to his vertical leap lately is LEBRON JAMES AND VINCE CARTER.........

he is 6'8-6'9......... and has a 44" inch vertical.........

that means his top of the head (or top of his headband if you may...) is supposed to be exactly 2-3" inches (and hell sometimes more if you have seen) ABOVE THE RIM.............

kindof LIKE THIS =




(THATS INGAME FOLKS!!! IMAGINE WHERE HE CAN TAKEOF FROM WITH PROPER SPACE.... WITH PROPER DUNKCONTEST SPACE!! DAMN U LEBRON FOR NOT ENTERING DUNKCONTEST! )

People are idiots...there is more to dunking than vert. ..Vince never had one of the greater verts, but he is a great dunker because you have to account for his wingspan, body control, and explosivness to actually get off the floor before the defender ...You can have a 50 inch vert but if you just have to find the time and and have the ability to put it to use, Its like having sniper rifle in a video game its the most powerful gun but you need to create the oppurtunity for it to be put to use....

People also get confused by the flashiness of a dunker...dont think because some1 scissor kicks they legs out or contorts theyre body that gives them a higher vert, its just body control.

One of the worst articles I've ever read. BR is the slum of sports. Just a dump.

This is hilarious to me.

Yeah that is an awesome photo of Darrell Griffith, but it appears he didn't make the block.

[PowerGlove]

I knew Iverson vertical leap was like 40 something

Could Melo really jump higher than Shawn Kemp?

This.

[verylegit]

lol@ melo having 40" vertical. wouldn't matter if he did though, he's not explosive.

@pauk

Hoop is 10 feet tall, but that's exactly 304.8 centimeters...

Spurd Webb probably has greatest vertical jump in nba history .

Btw , Bill Russell,Kareem and Wilt(also probably Ralph Sampson) have highest jump reaches in nba history .

[FKAri]

"player A may have been able to jump higher but player B could stay in the air longer"
