Cujo Posted March 30, 2006 Share Posted March 30, 2006 Didn't a girl win the dunk contest last year for just being able to get the ball over the rim? What a freaking joke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dunno who the player was (nor do really I care), but just because a girl can jump high for being female and barely get the basketball to clear the rim, does not make her a slam dunk champion ... not againt the other boys who can really throw down.

floydnimrod Posted March 31, 2006 Author Share Posted March 31, 2006 It was Candace Parker then(she plays for Tennessee now)Her first two were pretty simple but her last one wasnt great but it was the best one she did.She did the "Dee Brown Cover The Face" Dunk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilgump Posted March 31, 2006 Share Posted March 31, 2006 Her two dunks in the tournament in one game, those were pretty sweet. They dunks in the compatition were not very impressive, besides that shes a girl, we are lucky if any of the girls in our school can touch the net.

slapshot Posted March 31, 2006 Share Posted March 31, 2006 Her two dunks in the tournament in one game, those were pretty sweet. They dunks in the compatition were not very impressive, besides that shes a girl, we are lucky if any of the girls in our school can touch the net. Those weren't slam dunks. They were slam lay-ins. She let go of the ball when it was over the rim, then slapped the rim on her way down. Much different from a real slam dunk, where the ball is jarred out of the hands when the wrist/hand hits the rim.Besides, she's 6'4", right? Shouldn't all people 6'4" be able to dunk?
