Re: What Odds to give my friend on a bet
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] Can this kid palm a basketball? [/ QUOTE ] No. [/ QUOTE ] Then it looks like my 20-1 are the most realistic odds so far. [/ QUOTE ] I can barely palm a basketball and can dunk no problem. Being 6'5" also helps though. I sure as hell wouldn't lay him 20-1, if he can touch the rim right now, he should be able to add that extra 6-7 inches to his vertical if he is driven like you said he was.

I have never seen a 5'10" white guy dunk.

Plenty of 6'0 varsity players at my highschool that had been playing for 10 years couldnt dunk, black or white.

Re: What Odds to give my friend on a bet
[ QUOTE ]
What kinda exercises can someone do in order to increase their vertical leap so that they can dunk? I've always been able to so I wouldn't know. [/ QUOTE ] I'm no fitness guru so don't quote me but I suppose calf raises, plyometrics such as box jumps, maybe squats would do the trick.
