David Robinson 360

[sagatful]

had bn selected in all nba team and all defensive team as well..had back 2 back season mvp...four championship rings...thats tim duncan 4 u!

[saturndual32]

Great dunk by The Admiral. I might be wrong, but i remember David doing a windmill at least once.

[1SPURFAN]

the best center ever...

[Aadonis219]

I say got damn. I knew he grew a foot in a short time span so I suppose he kept his coordination.

[weedsmoke86]

I can't even remember ever seeing a center do a 360 dunk before.

[nhojretrac]

type in youtube shaq 360

[dutyguy15]

did that . . . shaq has no 360 dunk on youtube. He has a 180 labeled as a 360. Shameful.

[nhojretrac]

he did it in the all star game u probably type some thing different

[kayytozee]

nah shaq had a fullblown 360.

this "360" by david robinson was a 180

[dutyguy15]

you have it twisted . . . Robinson does a 360 . . . Shaq does a 180. Not even close.

[SolidSnakeRules]

dude..look where he takes off, his back is to the basket. He turns around, dunks it, then lands still facing the basket. That's a 180. Shaq's was no 360 either. The only player I see who actually does a 360 then dunks the ball is Dominique Wilkins.

[dutyguy15]

David's feet planted facing the backboard . . . he ends with a forward facing dunk. One full rotation. Shaq was clearly only one half. He planted his feet facing toward the other basket and did 1/2 rotation. Anybody arguing Shaq as a great athlete needs to get their head examined. Can't tell you any other "Great" centers who cherry-picked as much as shaq. He took way too many plays off to be considered a top 5 center. He was an entertainer, no doubt. I get that attraction. But athlete?

[SolidSnakeRules]

that's a pretty amusing statement considering the fact that you can't see his feet

[dutyguy15]

That's the great thing about school . . . you learn things like physics and logical reasoning skills. You can tell that his feet planted facing the backboard because that is where he is facing . . . unless he had some crazy anatomy that allowed his feet to rotate 180º we can PRESUME his feet were planted while he was facing the backboard. The only amusing thing here is how you are able to use a computer.

[SolidSnakeRules]

You're forgetting that the backboard is to the right of the camera. He is clearly planting his feet while facing away from the rim, yet he is only facing slightly away from the camera.

[Ueki0507]

BEAST!! lol

[bayareasports5]

back when the spurs weren't boring

[brandonhansentx]

As a Spurs fan and someone living in San Antonio since 1990, I can't agree more. Tim maybe be a great all round player and brought home the championship, but we haven't bought floor tickets since the 1st championship because Tim is so not aggressive. Ginobili flops around like a fish out of water, so that's kinda fun to watch.

[onblock7]

Yep and not winning titles then as well, I will take the boring Spurs anyday. Great Dunk though from my man D Rob, he was a damn beast in his prime.

[Blackwwoolff]

"Yep and not winning titles then as well, I will take the boring Spurs anyday."

Shaq has 4 rings and he wasn't winning titles then either and playing better than Tim Duncan ever has.

[onblock7]

How the hell are Parker and Ginobili boring?  Spurs hang up 2 OTs against so called exciting teams like the Suns or even hang up high against Dallas yet they are the ones that are boring, yet seem to outscore MOST EXCITING teams in head to head matchups. Guess D is boring, but it wins titles.

[ShaneSaw83]

Next to Olajuwon and Shaq, Robinson is the greatest center of the modern era. You can't do that in five seasons.

[vidaa22]

my goodness this was a tight 360. i didnt know dave did this til recently. i like this one better than shaq's from the all star game 2000. this dunk was graceful and smooth.

[lucidbarrier]

You should check out the dunks he did in his rookie seasons (if you can find it). His arms were a lot smaller back then and he did backslams as well.

[sethmb]

I am glad to see brittyboy3 that you realize that their is a good reason to say that David played well for alot more than 5 years. The spurs did not win for along time but David was all the player that you needed he just needed more help and another leader. Guy really is almost too nice that might of been a reason also. Bo hate to you solidsnakerules just wondering if you knew those stats brittyboy 3 just gave.

[JaquanPerry]

WOW.

[samjbballguy]

ure wrong there my friend im sorry i have to disagree with you but timmy D is way overrated tony parker is the main man in san An now

[seancag7]

LOL overrated..... Tim Duncan is far from overrated, you guys kill me.

[onblock7]

LOL what idiot said Tim Duncan was overrated? Anyone who leads a team to 4 rings is a damn beast, period.

[brittyboy3]

he was far from it, but he's a long way from overated

[brittyboy3]

shaq also got hit more than anybody of all time, david wasn't overated in any way, unfortunately u just don't know very much about basketball

[brittyboy3]

so wat, that's one year of a terrific career, u don't call a players career shitty because he got schooled around one year. was duncan's career shitty because shaq tooled him in 00-01, and vice versa for 99-00

[SolidSnakeRules]

Robinson was only good for 5 years, for that 5 years he was an amazing center, one of the best ever, but he declined into a mediocre(at best) center

[brittyboy3]

would you say 18 points and 9.6 rebounds a game is mediocre? cuz that was the 11th year that he was damn good. thru the years 24.3 ppg, 12 rpg, 3.89 bpg 25.6 ppg, 13 rpg, 3.9 bpg 23.2 ppg, 12.2 rpg, 4.49 bpg 23.4 ppg, 11.7 rpg, 3.22 bpg 29.8 ppg, 10.7 rpg, 3.31 bpg 27.6 ppg, 10.8 rpg, 3.23 bpg 25 ppg, 12.2 rpg, 3.3 bpg only played six games due to injury 21.6 ppg, 10.6 rpg, 2.63 bpg 15.8 ppg, 10 rpg, 2.63 bpg 17.8 ppg, 9.6 rpg, 2.42 bpg thats 11 years. pretty solid

[dutyguy15]

you're consistently proving to the world that you are a moron. How do you come up with these assessments? Seriously. You lack ALL logic and reasoning skills necessary to make any valid argument.

[rs002]

hey itcount, why all the hate on the admiral?

[brittyboy3]

well i dont think we need to listen this bullshit about a shitty career from somebody who doesn't know the difference between ONE and WON

[ClutchCityFD]

LMAO, Barkely and Malone won a grand total of 0 rings. I never said he was better than dream either, just pointing out how you "shitty career" comment was wrong. Judging by your sophomoric ranting, i bet you weren't even old enough to watch Robinson in his prime.

[ClutchCityFD]

yeah, real shitty career, you dumbass

[dougaldrichrules]

Impressive. Not many legit 7'0", 250 pound guys can pull off 360's although I liked Shaq's a bit better. Even fewer legit 7'1", 315 pound guys can pull off 360. Both were enjoyable however and both players were true freaks of nature. I miss watching prime david Robinson and prime Shaq.

[ibiondic]

that was good for a big man!!!

[QuickSilva12]

big deal

[maxpeezaay]

Number 50 for Air Force Academy, THE MERMAID!

[maxpeezaay]

Haha David Robinson is Hakeem's buttyboy!

[zmonkey11]

This dunk is incredible and most of you don't understand that. David Robinson is still rising while he does the 360. No other big men will still rise like that. The only person in the NBA with that size that can dunk like that right now is probably Dwight Howard. Truly athletic big man Robinson was and I hate the Spurs.

[SolidSnakeRules]

that's nothing compared to Shaq's athleticism and Wilt Chamberlain's 51 inch vert

[dutyguy15]

what the fuck are you smoking?  Shaq's Athleticism and Wilt's 51" vert? Jesus and Mary you are a freaking retard.

[SolidSnakeRules]

Er..Have you ever seen young shaq? Also, Wilt's 51" vert is a fact. Don't be a dumbass.

[dutyguy15]

yes, I watched a ton of young shaq . . . and Wilt's 51" vert is made up by you. He only high jumped 6'6" . . . if he had a 51" vert then he would be able to touch a 14' rim standing without a running start.

[SolidSnakeRules]

he had a 51" vertical LEAP, not jump. A vertical leap is a jump off of one leg with a running start.

[dutyguy15]

thank you for proving your ignorance and stupidity. I like that you thought that was a valid cover for such an incredibly stupid statement. You have it twisted, I am smart and You are dumb. Don't forget that.

[SolidSnakeRules]

This is nothing more than a failure to respond. The fact that you weren't aware of that distinction shows that you are the one who is ignorant. I've nothing to 'cover', I meant his vertical leap the entire time. He also high jumped in the days before the flop, that's very high for a 7 footer.

[dutyguy15]

A "vert" is what is considered a vertical jump. There is NO distinction between a vertical "leap" and "jump". This is measured by standing and jumping straight up. NO running involved. If by leap you mean jumping outward, then that is a different matter. But in no way is his VERTICAL 51". By saying "vert" you indicated a common term of vertical jump (again no distinction between leap and jump). I called you on it & you tried to cover by saying you meat "leap" and not "jump. Pathetic.

[SolidSnakeRules]

There is a distinction between leap and jump, and I just explained it to you. All you're doing is proving that you didn't know a damn thing about it. lmao.

[dutyguy15]

no, you are trying to explain a difference b/t Vertical Jump and Vertical Leap. There is no distinction because one is real and one you made up. Considering LEAP and JUMP are synonyms, I find it amusing that you really have sold yourself on the distinction. You are really an idiot. Just sad.

[SolidSnakeRules]

I didn't make anything up. I learned of this disctinction from hubie brown's commentary on a basketball game. Lmao. I think I'll take his word over yours.

[Xadoke]

Solid Snake is right. dutyguy has no idea what he is talking about. He is making up more BS to cover his tracks.

[Force283]

Why the fuck would you want your seven foot center doing 360's.

[BballerfrankieV]

puts asses in seats lol ;p

[bball4lyph]

nearly hurt himself then :D

[Force283]

This dunk was against the Bullets you blind motherfucker!

[wickedsjsidescotts30]

man david robinson dunk it way better then jordan does on his dunks man what a great dunk by the admiral and was that on the bulls?

[jvcforce1]

it was a reverse two handed 360

[djmaxx5050]

i think aLL athletic centerz can pull dis off...evn tim duncan if he wanted 2...

[wickedsjsidescotts30]

no way not even shaq can't do it that good as david robinson made it lol go spurs go

[SolidSnakeRules]

shaq in his prime could do windmills and 360s.

[dutyguy15]

what? You are freaking retarded.

[tgan3]

shaq pull off a 360 once...and y cant athletic centers do 360s? obviously its easy since they are already so tall...

[incansables]

link?

[PoletBally]

Yeah, Shaq did a one hand 360 in the 2000 all-star game. It was overshadowed by Vince Carter's dunks the previous night though. I like David's 360 better, it was done about 5 years earlier when 360s were something truly special, by 2000, the shock value had become smaller. Plus David's is a 2 hand.

[aph83]

ROBINSON!!!

[007nites]

wow.....this guy is like 7'1" 270 pounds and he just pulled off a 360!!!

[billgatesking]

damn...never see a center could

dunk 360!

[Thuuur]

shaq can do it too

[peralez2383]

Sweet mother of Moses that Was AWESOME...then again the Admiral was the greatest center of all time no questions asked!!!!!!!!
