... the ball slipped.. :o But I didn't get hurt too bad, the asphalt is not as hard as you might think. I was up and running the next week! :D

 

Btw - I bet I could manage it if I was 5´7", and my vertical is by no means special. On top of that I have midget-like hands. My fingers are shorter than my wife's! (How embarrassing is that!)

 

But if you want to see a truly disastrous rimcheck (assuming I understood the term "rimcheck"correctly), check this out:

That was one humiliating attempt. I'm never, ever going to try it again!

 

But hey... I do occasionally manage to survive a dunk-attempt so STFU, STFD, GTFOH and...ummm.....you know; stuff. :D

Yeah, Spud should have won every dunk competition he entered on athletic ability alone. He only won once in '86. Unfortunately, he competed vs Jordan and Dominique Wilkins. 'Nique was the best to watch though. They didn't call him the human hilight film for nothing.

 

Muggsey (how the he!! do u spell that?) started out with the Bullets if I remember correctly. He and Manute Bol (7'7") made for an interesting pair. He was never a great shooter, good, but not great. He did end up a pretty good ball handler, floor leader and was pesky on D after he went to Charlotte. I think his time with the Bullets was more of a novelty until he proved he could compete.
