T_O_Bull Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 Back in the late 60's the NCAA did a big favor for a young man from New Yorks Power Memorial Academy. They outlawed the dunk in college ball and the then Lew Alcindor developed the 'Sky Hook' a shot that was almost unstopable. The centers in todays college game either dunk the ball or pass the ball back out for a long jump shot. If I was a college coach I'd have a lot of film of Kareem Abdul Jabbar shooting the sky hook over everyone he played against. The kids today, and yes I include Anthony Davis of Kentucky and Ohio States Sullinger just don't have what I would call a quality shot. T_O_B G>B>R Quote Link to comment

Post players, if they would understand how to perfect their game, have the potential to be literally unstoppable with the ball in their hands. Few have ever realized this. Quote Link to comment
T_O_Bull Posted March 25, 2012 Author Share Posted March 25, 2012 These big kids have no idea how to play from a position within 6 ft of the basket. How sad. T_O_B G>B>R Quote Link to comment
