Being 6'11" around the rim

[NWADawg]

I'm about 5'10" so I obviously have no idea what it is like to be 6'11". Maybe that is why I can't see myself laying a ball in when I caught the ball under the goal If I was that tall. I think I would dunk or get fouled every time. Can someone that is really tall explain this to me?

Nice when you are playing basketball, but it would suck when trying to sit on a public toilet.

Either way you should be dunking duces and not laying them on the rim.

Something has to be wrong physically. He was unstoppable under the basket earlier in the year.

Possibly not the visual while enjoying a beverage.

Dj and Tolu with 11 and 13 rebounds. Respectively. I’ll take it all day long and twice on Sunday.

Especially considering one of the announcers said Tolu and Bell had a combined 1 rebound and 0 points at the half.

It would be nice if we could figure out how to get Tolu going earlier. He seems to have become a 2nd Half guy lately. But he was damn good for most of today's 2nd half.

I just remember that 6'-4-1/2" Cameron Burns never saw a ball he didn't think he could dunk around that rim.

Or flying economy…

He was a Beast and could make 2 consecutive free throws with no time left. Talk about clutch.

Has Cameron ever been located? At one time he was a missing person.

THIS! Drives me insane having these tall guys lay sh|t in versus just power dunking. If I was that tall, I'd slam everything. Unfortunately, I am just 6'2", can barely touch the rim these days.

See Shawn Jones Jr! He got it! DJ even had one!

What does the rim feel like?

Hard and cold, like my soul.

Could be that he's getting double or triple teamed every time he touches the ball lately. Similar to Hubbard getting doubled and having trouble getting his shot off.

Regardless of what the middle-aged sofa warriors think, these things matter.

He was 2-9 from point blank range. Glad he's rebounding, but come on.
