"You made Plumlee look silly by hanging in the air that long! We can't have that--technical foul!!" Seriously though, it looks like on the highlight that he said like two words. I can only assume he said something about the contact and the ref took umbrage, but I'd think the threshold for T-ing a player up should be significantly higher than that.
I don't think there is a camera angle that caught it. I saw a reply to a tweet of the play. Maybe whoever said it was sitting baseline?
Jordan had almost a half foot higher vertical than Vince. https://bleacherreport.com/articles...m Line: Carter's 43 inch,the top of this list!
Being chatty in high school is very different than knowing how to speak in public as as an NBA player. Young people, and also people that are new to a job (regardless of age) are less chatty while they better understand how to articulate and present themselves. Just because Kawhi is a reserved quiet guy in his 30's (not to mention all his oddities) doesn't mean 19 year old Sharpe, or any NBA rookie, will be similar for the next decade.
Anyone else notice that they had the wrong pictures for Bernard King? And instead of showing Spud Webb dunking, they showed him in another persons dunk?
If you search a bit more, you'll find entirely different lists, as well as questioning where the 48" figure for MJ actually came from, why Wilt's allegedly similar stat isn't included, max jump vs standing jump records, measurement accuracy, etc. https://www.sportskeeda.com/basketball/10-players-with-the-highest-vertical-leap-in-nba-history https://fansided.com/2020/06/12/michael-jordan-chicago-bulls-vertical-leap/ https://www.nbcsports.com/washington/wizards/keon-johnson-breaking-nba-combine-record-vertical-leap https://www.brewhoop.com/2008/6/22/543088/measurement-error-explorin
Bleacher Report... remind me of when Mike ever had his vertical measured officially. Pretty sure that like Clyde, Shaedon and others, it's just legend and we have to use our eyes. STOMP
