How Many Players on your Team can Dunk the Ball?

Agreed, it's easy when you don't have to worry about it being contested. To me, 2pts. is 2pts. Dunking doesn't make a basketball player.

Also very well conditioned, i dont remeber him coming out much vs. Estill. I remember last season when we played them, he hit like 11 out of 12 threes and not to metion windmilled on a fastbreak, as a sophamore. D1 guy IMO...



I grabbed this off another thread and it wasnt me ..lol

When I watched PCC play i wasn't impressed with him at all, the only players that showed me any talent was Noble and Maggard. I don't know if he was having an off day but I didnt see much from him at all as for D1 guy i don't think thats happening either. Yea he can throw it down but there are plenty of people who can do that but doesn't even get a shot at D1

Yeah thats true but someone that can dunk can change the momentum of a game instantly and can get the crowd into the game as well.

I totally agree!!

I agree.............During the game! Never has been a warm - up dunk that changed momentum!

I agree that it can get the crowd involved, but against a good team it won't have any effect on their overall play. Go to Lexington or Louisville and play those teams when dunking isn't an uncommon thing like it is here in EKY, it won't have any effect on their game....same thing is evident in the state tourney.

Breathitt has two players who can dunk in a game, jeremy congleton and justin taulbee.

It was awesome!!!!Big Grin
#42
I want to see someone throw it down in a game...no just warm ups
#43
BigJ Wrote:South Floyd dosent have any big guys that can really dunk the ball....Dylan is probly the only one....the others shoot lay ups and grab the rim
Dylan Langdon can dunk and Shannon Turner throws it down easy. We got a guy in PE class that can almost grab the net but he is always a bit tardy.Cool He's a dandy paintballer though.
#44
roger damron is prob. the best dunker in the 15th. he's only about 5'11 and he can sky....it's fun to watch him in warm ups...last year at breathitt co. he dunked over a kid...so imo roger is the best dunker
#45
Devan Adams has three dunks so far this season... In games. I would say that probably makes him the best dunker in the region. Has anyone else in the region even dunked in a game?
#46
king360 Wrote:lol..come on now...im not even saying tyler is the best in the mountains..thats justin jones

haha yea justin can throw down
#47
Ian Welch of JC has dunked this year.
#48
Knott Central = 6

1.)Stamper
2.)Amburgey
3.)Bartrum
4.)Ratliff
5.)Caudill

There may be more. Sorry if I left anyone out.

I remember last year when hazard was beating perry by about 20 but Deron Amis threw it down in Randy Lewis and Justin Jones face...it was NASTY!

Amburgey for sure since the 8th grade
Bartrum-maybe
not sure about any of the others

I've seen stamper throw down in warmups.
I'm tired of hearing about money, money, money, money, money. I just want to play the game, drink Pepsi, wear Reebok -Shaquille O'Neal

Who clarified this??

Didn't Justin Jones have a dunk against Manual?
#58
Dunking in warm-ups is differant than in a game,not many take the chance in games,lots have chance but just puts it in softly. Dont think many coaches like see ball pop out in stands,reather see 2 points than ball in air off back of the rim.
Breathitt County has 3-4 that can stuff it in warm ups,Congelton,Taulbee,Fugate,and Ritchie seen none do it in live game tho.Smile
#59
Justin Jones dunked on the first play in the Hazard-Manuel game on Saturday night. It was a really nice dunk and got the crowd fired up right from the start! I have seen him dunk in several games last year, as well.

Adair Co

Darrin Ballou in game. You dont see many dunks in high school games. I have watched about 6 or 7 games in the Lex Cath tournment this week, havent seen any dunks!
