This Basketball Player Was So Inspirational

Except for MJ of course when i was little kid and i was worried i would never be able to dunk because i wouldn't be tall enough. Im just a tad under 6'2 now. But i haven't stopped growing yet and i'll probably be 6'2 and a half when im finished growing. But anyway this guy was amazing check out Spud Webb who was 5'7 and is probably one of the best dunkers of all time truly inspirational.

I always wanted to do that throw the Basketball on the floor make it bounce to the rim then dunk it in mid air thats so awesome. I think im gonna practice doing that, i can dunk but thats just in another league totally great.

LOL he's so tiny... It looks like a kid dunking....
I remember my brother was about the same size and had pictures of Spud Webb all over his wall.... He must have been inspired as well as he worked for a long time and ended up being able to dunk it as well.... It looks freaky little people that can jump that high

Thats good that your brother had a dream and never stopped trying no matter if he had physically disadvantages have some rep.

I was looking on You tube the other day at the spudd wedd dunks from when he won the dunk contest. It really is amazing that someone his hieght could dunk like that.
A couple other guys that where really short and where in the NBA where
Muggsy Bogues who was like 5'3 and Earl Boykins I think was 5'5 and they were both pretty good also. Not sure if they could dunk though.

I used to play Basketball in school last year and i enjoyed it. For some reason basketball aint big in the UK especially compared to US. To my knowledge there aint even a proper court by my house. It's all Football, Cricket, Tennis etc, no Basketball. I'm surprised you play Basketball ICB being from UK, not many people I know play it at all. Whenever I played it last year though I always found it a good sport though.
