i saw the local footage and they had a baseline cam. they replayed it about 4 times. he's not above the rim but he very well might be eye-level with the rim. some angles have his shoulders over the rim!

it was sick either way.... another good shot was the cavs bench, some cameraman caught it.... they didn't cheer as much as just hang their jaws a little scared, like that scene in a movie where someone does something superhuman and you know your life has just changed forever... :-)

i think it was the highest i've ever seen anyone get on a court, in game. at least tied to anything i've seen. i think part of it was that jmac dumped off the pass low so lebron had to dip to get it then launched.

sick. i jumped off my couch and called everyone in the house to check it out. after the replay we all sat there with a happy glow that only a lifelong cavs fan could have had at that point. he's ours, mwhahahahahahaha! the only true way to cleanse the jordan/elway damage and reverse the curse is to face it head on with pure talent.

How would a dunk like this be perceived in the dunk contest...would it translate?

Deceiving angle or not, he definitely got to eye level with the rim which is incredible taking off from where he did. Wow...

BenDengGo

has he declared for slam dunk contest yet ?
if he doesnt it would be one of the biggest disapointments ever.
he'd win 100% without a doubt, just like vince in 2000.
i could imagine him doing the mj/dr.j/barry, jumping from the 3 point line.

I'm guessing it would probably get very good marks in a contest, but not exceptional. I mean, there is no creativity to it at all, so they would probably take some marks away for that. But it doesn't mean it isn't one of the greatest dunks i've ever seen.

Maybe, I missed the sarcasm?

StraylightRunner

That dunk is ridiculous. At first glance, it looks like a really good dunk, but looking harder, it is so awesome. His dunks in the HS dunk contest were all crazy high, too.

BenDengGo

no sarcasm at all !!!
that guy is so samn athletic and fast i could imagin him jumping from the 3pointline

That dunk is crazy. I just dont get how he gets so high. The way he dunks on 10 foot rims must feel like how I used to dunk when I was 13 on those little 6 foot rims. Wow!

Sometimes LeBron makes everything look smaller with his speed and leaping... he looks like he's playing on a 3/4 sized court with 8 foot baskets.

HOLY ****!!!!!!!!! THAT WAS NUTS THIS KID IS NUTS


No masked cursing please. Thanks-- hobojoe

The camera angle is very deceiving, and sorry, that dunk was nothing special. He was actually quite below rim level unless you think that he's so tall that when he's standing on the ground his eyes meet the bottom of the mesh. He still doesn't jump nearly as high as Steve Francis, J-rich or VC.

I guess the camera angle also deceived all of the other players and the coaches who remarked on that dunk after the game.

Post a pic with the line when he is standing on the ground. Like Steve smith he is the same height as LeBron you know.
