ROFL....This would be awesome Anybody ever wins the lotto set this up for everyone.... Im 6'8". Had a scholarship to George Mason...played 4 years there. My team and I had a decent run in March Madness a few years back
5'11", broke the scoring record for Oregon Hoops. J/k. just played recreationally usually...CYO leagues in high school and intramurals in college.
6'4" and when I weighed around 200 (around 1987), I could (just barely) dunk from a standing start under the hoop, and I rode the pines for the battalion-level team for a few games until I sprained an ankle. Once I hit 240 (around 1996) I could still touch the rim with a running start, but not more than a couple of times without hurting myself, lol. I learned to bang, scrap for boards, and pass out of the high post. Now, I'm lucky if I don't break my leg trying to touch the net because I have a vertical leap that makes Arvydas Sabonis look like Travis Outlaw. I get winded yelling at the referees, and I sweat when I think hard. Sigh...
6'1''. Was a decent player in high-school, first guy off the bench on a very good team kind of guy. Shattered my ankle my Senior year, was in a cast for pretty much the entire year, and whatever hopes for further play later disappeared. Have not played seriously since. Try to play recreational basketball every once in a while - but since I do not do it frequently enough - I am not a threat unless all other players are complete garbage.
That's Lamar Butler, a 6'2" guard that currently plays for the Reno Bighorns of the NBA Development League and is the cousin of Caron Butler. You never told us Caron was your cousin!
6'2 weighed around 270-300 in high school. Skilled as hell at basketball but built like a football player. Played on some for fun league teams in my early 20s when I was in decent shape. Best game was when I played a game for my friend's winless team at Lake Shore Athletic Club in the late 90s. Hit eleven threes and one layup off a pump fake towards the end of the game. Hit six straight free throws to ice it,dude on other team said "I think we fouled the wrong guy" before my fifth free throw, I said "ya sure did" and swished two more to put it out of reach. I am telling you, if you hit eleven threes in a game your man will go for the pump fake every fucking time, seriously. Today about 350-700 lbs. Who knows? I have calcium deposits on my ankles around where my achilles tendons attach to them. I could dunk when I got down to 246 at age 24 but couldn't palm a ball very well. My friend Layne called me Sabonis because I was big and could pass and shoot and rebound. Big for normal people anyway. I guess I had a quick first step despite my size because a simple pump fake got me around just about anyone. You just have to be able to shoot the ball so they can't back off of you.
5'11" played every day of my life til recently. Guarded the Gatorade and kept the bench warm while Terrell Brandon led us to a state championship at Grant!
5' 11" and played almost every day between the ages of 10-21. Then I got in to booze and women and got too out of shape to play. I hope to play again. I really miss it.
At -40 the ball don't bounce......that's why we called it the rock. Highschool 5'9". Small school in N. Dak. Yes, I know they are all small.
5'7" played basketball all my life.. haven't played it much since i went to college, but i did sign up for a competitive basketball class which should be fun and super easy
I'm 5'11" and I played PG/SG. I played three seasons of varsity. I could two-hand dunk a volleyball, but never was able to dunk the real thing. My coach called me the team's best shooter when I was a junior, and that team had a future MLB player in Jeremy Guthrie(he could also shoot it). We had a new coach my senior year and he played favorites. I ended up walking out in the middle of one of the games after an assistant who was black clamored for the head coach to put in a boy from a local boys home(correctional) who was also black. I was the only player in my senior class to play all four years and I was barely playing at all during my senior year(played far more as a junior). This kid from the boys home didn't even go to our school and didn't do anything in practice to warrant playing time. He didn't know the offense, missed practices, and had only been on the team for a few weeks. I felt majorly slighted at this seeming level of reverse racism. So I quit in the middle of a game, went down to the locker room, and grabbed my stuff. I reemerged from the locker room, walked across the sideline of the court in front of the fans, and I went up the bleachers, grabbed my beautiful girlfriend and left. The player from the boys home ended up running away and was sent back to another youth facility. It was four years of hard work that ended in huge disappointment. I really just wanted to play and I know I deserved a better chance than I was given. It wasn't, however; my first notion that life isn't fair. I also played varsity baseball for 4 years as a SS. I never played against anyone with a better infield arm. I gave up baseball in college for that beautiful girlfriend, who is now married to a lawyer. It wasn't, however; my first notion that life isn't fair.
