    The first time you dunked

    Do you guys remember the first time you dunked? And the first time you dunked during a game?

    My first dunk was after a gym class... It was the last class so I stayed at the basketball gym with the ball, all alone. I practiced dunking several times and succeeded after 2-3 tries. Never dunked during a game, though.

    So what's your story...?

    Last night, when I played 2k10, I used turbo and dunked on about 3 guys.

      haha...if dunking on a video game counts, then I first dunked when I was 10.

        When I was 8 I first dunked on a nerf goal. Does that count?

        I have never dunked on a regulation sized goal. Oh well.

          I used to be able to get up when I was in high school on the team, around 10th grade. Just barely though, never confident enough to do it in a game.

              I dunked a tennis ball on a 10ft goal once..

              There is this one 9 and 1/2 foot goal or something weird like that that I think the wheelchair basketball leagues use for practice (it is at these apartments). You cant really notice it if youre not paying attention... anyway I took my friend there one time, and about half way through a game of 21 I picked up my dribble, got two steps down, and dunked on him. The look on his face was priceless.

              9 1/2 I can mash... 10ft I cannot =(

                Dunked after lifted a year or so ago. Was about 6'2" at the time. The funny thing was we were squatting that day too and my legs were dead. I hadn't tried dunking in months and figured I'd just give it a shot.

                  I can catch an alley-oop if the throw is perfect, but at 5'8", I don't really need to dunk. I'll still rise and finish strong on you though.

                      By thw way, I was (and still) 6'2" and I was 18 back then. The thing that prevented me from dunking more, was that I could hardly hold a basketball in one hand. I could get up high enough but the ball would slip off my hand.

                        Re: The first time you dunked

                        My first and only time was when I was a young boy. I was 13 at the time, 5'8 (still there). It's a hot summer day in the hood, so you already know how it is already. Girls, music, ish talking like crazy, an all around good time. We had somebody's cousin or something from Philly beasting on dudes from my block and a couple chicks hyped it up and said their running through anybody that stepped out there (not the exact words, lol). I guess nobody informed ol' boy that was our block. Anyway we get out there and ol' boy was really doing his thing, can't even lie. But he was in for a surprise.

                        My cousin stood at 5'7 (couple years older than me though) and had dribble out this world. Never seen somebody take his cookies til this day. That whole game he was just shakin people and passing it back to me (Long Range Sniper). Eventually the dude caught on that I can shoot and started talkin that "that's alll you can do" stuff. At that time in my life And 1 was my bible but I never liked dribbling (Why dribble when I can pop a J in somebody eye?). Anyway I'm dribbling towards the left elbow, faster than the dude expected, guess I caught him by surprise because when I did the Shamgod crossover (Real streetballerz know who he is or at least those who are familiar with dudes that are famous at the Rucka) he was left tying his shoes at the top of the key. That left the whole left side open. My cousin cut to the lane. Mr. Philly was cherrypickin near the cup so I make him commit to me, he did. I throw a pass to my cousin, Mr. Philly follows the pass. I say "Got One" and my cousin throws the ball up. Mr. Philly who's mind is probably going crazy right now follows the ball once again and starts to turn to jump for the ball. Wrong Move. Mr. Philly had my "Baby Maker" all in his grill, lol.

                        I said a couple of "loving" words about Philly and walked off the court like I was Jordan or something. That was my first and only dunk in my life (broke my ankle later that week and never been able to jump since and that was 11 years ago). Greatest moment of my life.....

                          Yeah, I'm 5'9 with average jumping ability so a backboard slap was all I could ever do.

                            I'm only 5'7" (was 5'5" when I graduated high school) and not a very good jumper. I can't even reach the bottom of the net on a regulation hoop
