Andre Jackson Inspired Thinking Basketball Video

Ben Taylor(Thinking Basketball) does great content on the NBA. Jackson’s incredible dunk awhile ago inspired an entire breakdown of how it’s possible for these guys to defy gravity. It’s worth a watch.

Jimmy thinks UConn’s the best. Jimmy likes UConn.

I think this might be a good explanation for the height BUT I wouldn't take a combine vertical as evidence of what someone's max jump is. Running forward at speed and jumping is totally different than standing still and jumping. Some players have more force/velocity from running before jumping. Think of a high jumper or a long jumper. Who knows if the verticals of either athlete are that high, and who knows if a long jumper can even get up very high at all.

I remember reading that Solo's vertical leap (combine style) was 40" so that is flying up at Andre's altitude.

Solo had some putbacks that showed it this year

I know it's wrong to laugh at the pain of others but "Jimmy has a compound fracture" slew me. Trivia: Episode not written by Larry David.

AJ almost smacked his chin on the way down a couple of weeks ago.
