Re: Wilt's 12 foot rim dunk
I've seen this dunk live , it was 9yrs ago in my hometown. Javtokas would had been a beast, he was almost Spurs member already, too bad he took that moto crash after which it's a fckin miracle he can play now, docs like always said that there is no chance for him to be back.

Apparently Chamberlain's max vert was a mere 24 inches, putting him nearly 10 inches below Andrew Bogut (33.5 max) and 14 inches below Yi Jianlian (38 max). It turns out Chamberlain's max vert was inferior to the standing vert of Yao Ming (26 standing) and only 2 inches greater than Shawn Bradley's standing vert (22 standing/27 max).

I need proof of that rim being 12 feet high before anything.

Yea Dwight did that to, pretty easy it seemed. Then Lebron went on to say he can do it on a 13 foot rim.

Yeah it looked that he done that easy, but alley op is a lot easier to do.

It was an 11 foot rim that he dunked on.

It was 11 feet, not 11-6.

Get serious. That was 11 feet, not 12.

They measured it before he did it. Unlike Dwight who dunked on an 11 and claimed it was 12.
