      Thank you! I've been saying this for years. Every kid who likes basketball dreams of dunking. There just needs to be a consistent, reliable way to judge winners (as reliable as skateboarding, rhythmic dancing, surfing, and breaking at least). It's also possible that women would need to keep the sports equal (which I also think would be awesome; just do it on 9 or 9.5ft). Who has the phone number for the IOC? Let's make this happen.

      @@DunkademicsOfficial It cant more simplified than that. Do you have content where dunkers are using ONE HAND palming the ball. NOT CUFFING or using gravity to hold the ball to replace not being able to palm the ball. I'm talking about palming the ball with their strong fingers and not losing control and doing something special with it. Like a Dr J, or a Michael Jordan, or a Vince Carter or a James Worthy or Larry Nance Sr. and Jr. People like that.
      Put those clips up, if you don't have them yet. Go find players who have big hands who can be creative.
      This is one of the glaring issues the NBA dunbk contest has right now. Its failing miserably.
      I guarantee you if you get a few guys that can PALM THE BALL consistently with no issues. It will be a game-changer!
      Average people cant do those things. The whole bouncing props and jumping over people is played out.
      Just being honest. Dont hate the messenger, focus on the message.

      Vince can do all of that in his sleep AND PALM THE BALL! in his hey day.
      Jason Richardson could palm the ball and do all of this too.
      He just jammed the ball over 40 years if age!
      MJ didn't have to and he could if he wanted. his aura and 48+ vert was enough.
      These guys in the video have no aura whatsoever. They can jam and dunk, not taking that away as stated previously.
      But their aura their legs the way they go about it is awkward.
