Hi, my name used to be KB4MVP or something similar. I would come around during the playoffs and talk sports and trash talk some.

I really hope you guys get this forum back up and running. I am rooting for you and I know you guys can do it!


P.S. I'm really bummed bout the lakers game tonight :(

If Cy says so it must be true.

Joey Johnson! That's the dude. As a kid I remember being surprised Dennis Johnson had a brother who could jump out of the gym. As a kid watching the NBA in the 80s, Dennis Johnson was a solid PG, but sorta thick and definitely played below the rim. Apparently in his younger days, he could really fly, however.

yup im pretty sure Dennis Johnson had a 42" vertical, Joey was measured at 52"

He definitely has springs. I doubt he's at 60", but it would be interesting to see an official measurement out of curiosity.

yeah he said 56" back in 2006, theres some pretty good evidence of it, hes got lots of footage. some say as high as 61" though.

theres also a 5'7" dude from the bahamas with gold teeth named Reggie Thompson who holds the Guinness record right now at 56", hes trained with the lakers and apparently busted a 19 year old kobe's *** he played for the Harlem Ambassadors where he showcased the ability to dunk from the free throw line without a running start...

61" is hard to believe.

he once held the world record for dunking on the highest hoop at 11-foot-7. if a 6ft 4 guy jumps that high then he should easily be able to dunk 13ft rim.

let's say his standing reach is 8ft 4. which is typical for 6ft 4 guy.

8ft 4
+
5ft 1 (61 inch)

13ft 5 inch


i have no idea what his standing reach is. i'm just assuming. trey burke's standing reach is 8ft 1 1/2. d wade who is 6ft 3 3/4 has 8ft 6 inch reach. let's say he has a 8ft 6 inch reach like wade and has 56 inch vert. his max vert reach would be 8ft 6 + 4 ft 8 inch = 13ft. very top of the backboard. something a 6ft 7 with long arm high jump athlete couldn't do.

i honestly don't even buy 52 inch vert claims by anybody except very few people(kadour ziani and few others) i need to see it to believe it. i don't believe randy moss or MJ's supposedly 48 inch vert either.
 
Alright I'm convinced darft net is just trolling fan bases for giggles this year.

Parker back up to 1
Anderson is going at 5 to the Jazz now
Cleanthony Early has made a meteoric rise to 13
