    What don't you understand about reach as well.

    If I am 7 foot and have a 7 foot 5 reach, and there is a 6 foot guy with a 7 foot 8 reach, its still easier for the 6 foot guy to dunk it.

    Jordan has a 1 inch reach advantage over White.

    You have been owned. Admit you are wrong, or leave the board.

    I'm trying to put it simply for the guy. Read the last 3 pages and you will see its like explaining something to a 4 year old.

    He doesn't seem to understand that reach is more important then height in terms of dunking.

    Notice Jordan's head over rim height even on "the shot".



    Sorry you exposed yourself as a failure as a basketball fan. The "court level" views of the old school game weren't as prevalent as they are now. Jordan getting his head at rim height and higher would be most prominent in the 80's.

    Thanks for playing!

    Jordan has more space between his legs and the floor, more distance from hip to floor. You can clearly see he's higher on the long distance dunk.

    Look. I am 6 flat. I have gotten my head halfway up the rim, licking up the net off three steps. My no step vertical is 31" PERIOD. 48 is inhumane so stop making up that nonsense. i've busted my a$$ since grade school with a combo of plyometrics, fast squats, genetics, sprting, and meditation.

    Carter, Nate Rob, Gerry Green, LBJ, J-Rich, Spud Webb, Jordan Farmar, have comparable verts to MJ. Not motherphucking Michael Wilson or Kadour Ziani.

    Just answer the question bruce.

    You've always said you provide facts, yet all you have done is provide pictures and somehow between the two, amazingly come up with Jordan being higher then White. All this, by just looking at the two pictures.

    It's hard to believe you are what 30 years old? Kinda sad and pathetic that you hang onto everything that was said about your basketball hero. I understand that its hard to let go and admit that you were wrong for believing, but you are a grown man bruce and you should honestly be able to take this like one and not a 5 year old child which you are acting like.

    plowking = turns away my facts as fabrication, doesn't respond to them other than discrediting them. FAILURE

    You will not change the FACTS!

    Which are right here:

By running and lifting weights he has substantially built up his upper body and gained 12 pounds in two years, most of it in the shoulders."

    Also Jordan was on a sports special on national TV in the early 90's with Deion Sanders and he was doing sprints with Deion and Jordan ran a 4.3 40 yard dash on TV. I would love to see that again!

    Michael Jordan also had a 48 inch verical. Obviously he wasn't maxing out his jump on every play, but Michael Jordan's max jump was 48"!!

    Fun video I made of LeBron James, the current game's best athlete, and Michael Jordan, dunking:
