I have seen him dunk on enough people and block enough shots to know he is a decent leaper whatever his vertical. Dirk is a superstar and so I wonder if Dirk even goes through those type of tests anymore, it's probably been years.whiteathlete33 said:I saw online that Dirk only has a 25 inch vertical. I think that's impossible. Does anyone know if there is any truth to that?
<div>Exactly!! That is part of the reason I dont buy into the Lebron Hype as a dunker. The guy is 6'8 with his great vertical and long arms how hard is it for him to jump the rest of two feet to dunk the ball? I like seeing shorter guys dunk because they have to be more athletic to do so ala Nate Robinson.</div>
Exactly! Remember Rex Chapman.
