      @@abel6298 Why KJV? The NIV is more accurate, but nothing beats the original languages. In fact you're selling yourself short if you read the KJV, it didn't have all the manuscripts and used single words for many different words making it inaccurate and open to interpretation. On top of that, they didn't understand Hebrew as well, and you're going through what only a handful of scholars decided how to interpret things. As someone telling someone to read their Bible, you really should know better, going around giving false information about your religion isn't a holy thing to do.

      What if the dunk contest was part of the All-Star game? In-game dunks would be so much more entertaining, you could have judges on the sideline or just let the announcers do the judging. Any time there is a dunk during the game it gets a score and the player with the highest scoring dunk throughout the whole game wins. There will be wide open fast break dunks and maybe some dunks on defenders. A guy with a high dunk score might start defending the rim to protect his lead, and then HE gets dunked on! This would add another layer to the dunk contest and to the All-Star game itself.

      A world class triple jumper should be able to take off from center court and easily be able to dunk (with the hop/step/jump). So you dribble to center court, then throw down a dunk that literally doesn't violate the travel rules from the NBA. It would be amazing to watch.

It would show who the true dogs of the league are too. I could see Kobe jumping on this so it really depends what mentality they have. And honestly if you lose who gives a fk? At least you got the balls to showcase what you got against some of the best players on the planet. It's making it sound like these are fickle players with no confidence. These people are mentally trained to have a delusional amount of self confidence. They probably all think they are going to win 1v1.

      If I happened to want to shoot the ball underhand like in the old school era of the NBA like Brent Barry's Dad did, and swing it from the ground upwards towards the basket, and the ball goes in front of the line, but my feet are a foot behind the line when I start my shot, there is no ref that is gonna say that how I shot the ball trumps the fact that my feet were behind the line.
