720 degree dunk, done DURING a game....

"Taurian "Air Up There" Fontenette gained more than 15 minutes of fame when he executed what many are calling the first ever 720-degree dunk in Houston on an And1 Mixtape Tour stop June 28. That's twice around, ending with a slam. The tape became the most popular at ESPN's site earlier this week and has been shown endlessly on airwaves and downloaded continuously on websites worldwide. "

like i said i cant watch it at work ... so is it in a nba game or on a mixtape tour game

[V8ENZ]

doesnt look like a nba game

ps. that **** is easy aye

[Twe12ve]

its either an NBA or NCAA game - but BEn its during a proper basketball game..the dunk then MADE it to And1 mix tapes..it wasnt done specifically for a mix tape.

[ben351]

i follow you know :)

No it's not. My mates told me about this, it was done on an AND1 mixtape tour stop.

They are wearing AND1 uniforms (note the shorts length, prohibited in both the NBA and NCAA).

There is also 'AND1' on the court.

AND there are spectators on both baselines, also prohibited in basically ANY form of organised ball.

[Twe12ve]

LOL Detective Brockas strikes again! lemme have another look

[Twe12ve]

why are there two sets of players then? opposing teams i mean.

oh and to stem the argument..i DOUBT they would drop the ring height...these niggers are like 6'7 anyways...

[Brockas]

Haven't you seen a mixtape Brendan?

They play streetball against each other for fun, there are basically no rules, call your own fouls etc etc.

They just use it as a template to do **** that looks good.

[ben351]

its like wrestling for basketball ....

and i swear the rings are lowered ...

paul ?

[nicecar]

They arnt lowered. Saw them when they came to perth, theyre all tall + can jump high.

[iluv2moan]

id argue that thats not 720 degrees more like 540 (when ball entres hoop)....impressive nethertheless

ive seen the one at teh And1 store here..but the only one i saw was all outdoor streetball...so nah man never seen it on court..

[NVIOUS]

Also notice the lack of enthusiam from the defenders, they simply walk down the court not bothering to try and stop him. Definately an AND1 game.

Also agreed. I downloaded and watched it in slow-motion. He only does a 540 degree spin when he dunks it, after he's put the ball thru he spins the extra 180 before landing.

Nar mate, some of these guys are chosen purely on their hops. Others are chosen for their handles.

You'll notice that a lot of the times they play on college courts in the US. I've got mix tapes 1-5 here on DVD, and I think I've got 6 and 7 lying around somewhere. You can tell they are definately 10ft because you see interviews with the guys and some are 6'7" etc etc, and it's easy enough to gauge how tall the hoops are when they're under them.

[1JZNOSHIT]

geez hard crowd to please, thats a f*cken sensational effort i reckon.

[200zrrr]

Bet he has practised that move just a few times...

[Twe12ve]
