Dunks we haven\'t seen
When I was in middle school I lived near a playground with an 8 1/2-foot high rim (good for me, I was 5-foot-nothing) and my friends and I would have dunk contests, so I was always trying to come up with different original dunks. There were always two I'd never seen in a contest — the behind-the-back-in-midair dunk (which Josh Smith pulled off) and a 540. I can't believe no one's done a 540 yet.
Anyway, since I know there are some hoops fans on this board ... any other dunks you haven't seen yet that you'd try? |

I know that I've done it in NBA Live 2005, but has anyone in real life done the Through-the-legs-twice Dunk?

Anybody who 1) tries that, and 2) avoids going to the hospital with a torn groin, has my ultimate respect.

<-- Ish was in the process of learning a 540 dunk before he got hurt last year. He can still fly, but I don't think he has the legs for it anymore.

[/ QUOTE ] The best part of that dunk is how he holds onto the rim to clear the defender. If her just slammed it and let go he would crash to the floor in a heap with the other player, but he skillfully avoids that. |

Re: Dunks we haven\'t seen
I would still like to see the rumored pull the quarter off the top of the backboard. There are stories of: Earl "the Goat" Manigult, David Thompson, Dr. J and Michael Jordan all able to do this at one point in their playing days, but I have never seen any actual video of this being done.
I used to play alot at Run n' Shoot in Atlanta an I want to say I saw Rob Martin(aka 50 from the And1 team) pull a 540 dunk off. I would like to see any type of variant taking off from the foul line dunk, or a from the top of the key. To me distance and elevation is the sickest combo for dunks. |
