That reverse 360 one handed dunk was sick. WTF was wrong with those judges? smh

Clyde could jump from as far out as MJ. Forget where his foot was on that FT line dunk; it's clear from his forward momentum that he could have easily sailed another two feet through the air and still dunked it). However, I'm guessing his vertical leap was four or five inches less. At least in the dunk contests. I've seen him get up higher in games.

Juan, last time. That was a 360. A reverse 360 at that. Once you take that first step forward, the rotation begins. He didn't take a step towards the basket with his back to it. If he did, that would have been a 180. Watch VC's reverse 360 windmill dunk, and compare the two..
Don't question it dude. It is what it is, a 360.

@ThanosByNight is 180 dude because he starts to jump with his back to the basket

It wasn't a 180. A 180 would implied he did it facing away from the basket.
The inertia of going with the opposite hand of the actual motion, makes it look like the revolution was incomplete.
It's much harder than people think, which is why Vince Carters reverse 360 windmill made people go ape shit.
-
@ThanosByNight it was 180 degree

His dunks were definitely highly unappreciated by the "judges". He should have won at least one of those contests.
-
thing with drexler is he's older styled which doesn't fair well in these
That's tough to say. You can't leave out some of the old-school guys like Jerry West and Walt Frazier. He's definitely in the TOP 5 shooting guards of all time though.
