Yeah Datznasty told me it was called the "myopic stress reflex." Pure speed movement... a beautiful thing in rebounding. Originally Posted by Toizumi

Re: Lebron JAMES = most overrated leaper in the history of the NBA.
WTF? LeBron's the greatest 1-footed leaper to ever play this game. I don't know how anyone who has followed his career can deny this. He's pretty good off 2 feet too.

Re: Lebron JAMES = most overrated leaper in the history of the NBA.
i didnt hear anybody sayin that particualr dunk he got his head by the rim but whatevs lebron is still the best one foot dunker and best in game dunker he has like 3 dunks he does that crazy tomahawk which he and josh smith do he should break his arm and hand every time doing it idt you know how hard that is doind cocking it back that far the stupid reverse windmill and the occasional windmill it makes no sense how he gets so high off a one foot jump
and everytime he goes for a dunk its not like he tryin make out his bunnies its like a simple lil lay in for him
he has no creativity at all though he will still win the the dunk contest since ppl are on his jawn like that he will just jump as high as he can from as far out as he can and try to break his arm basicaly four times and get 50 for each one

Re: Lebron JAMES = most overrated leaper in the history of the NBA.
Is this bat $hit crazy week? If you wanna say his leaping ability is overated (wich it aint), that's one thing. But most overated ever? This post should be filed right next to the one where some dude says averaging 30/10/10 and an unknown amount of blocks and steals 5 years straight is somehow bad for your team.

He was still going up when Garnett fouled him.

Re: Lebron JAMES = most overrated leaper in the history of the NBA.
Pause this at the six-second mark. He clearly has to duck the backboard. Both hands are clearly at the top of the square. And he clearly is jumping as high as he needed to in order to execute the dunk in fear of hitting the full moon that was out that night. Originally Posted by PleezeBelieve

Re: Lebron JAMES = most overrated leaper in the history of the NBA.
why are people acting like lebron has to go all out for game-time dunks? the plain dunks you see lebron pull on a regular basis are sick as they come, could you imagine what they would be like if he put a little effort into them? Absolute madness...
calling his leaping ability overrated is terrible. thread OP should be shot. Look at his vert when he chases down blocks off the glass in transition too... overrated... pshhh lol...
his 2 legged jump isn't as impressive, but he also seldom does it
