BEST DUNKER in 15th REGION

[Basketball Jones]

Who are some of the best dunkers in the 15th....plus I have a question, can Allen Central's center dunk it?

[King_Kelly]

Matt Little...i seen this kid during warm ups and he was really throwing down other night at AC

[Patton19]

What school does he play for?

[King_Kelly]

Sf

[the-man]

i think this thread is crazy. i only kno of jamie mcarty dunkin it and that kid from p-burg

[rosco]

Josh Martin from AC can't dunk the ball "in game", which is pretty much useless. Not knockin him or anything, but if you can't dunk in game, you might as well not! LOL Jamie McCarty was a great dunker but I just wonder if the broken foot will change this.

[-STAT-]

yeah rosco the broken foot Mccarty suffered will affect his dunking abilities.....but i was watchin the center Martin from AC and he can get up dotnt get me wrong....but he is just a lil bit short of puttin it down....if he could get his legs stronger he will be slammin in no time!

[BeaverCreek Connection]

I saw the Patton kid throwing it down with ease during warm ups. I simply cant believe he did not play. If they dont give this kid a chance, well enough said!

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

I might be mistaking but I thought I saw Mitchell Riddle from valley dunk one in warm up's last year.

[Basketball Jones]

I saw the Patton kid throwing it down with ease during warm ups. I simply cant believe he did not play. If they dont give this kid a chance, well enough said!
I didnt know he could dunk it like that, i thought it was just like a grab the rim and hope to go in. But he showed me wrong about 20 times.

[grizzly23]

i think this thread is crazy. i only kno of jamie mcarty dunkin it and that kid from p-burg

agree 100% no one in the 15th can dunk it good ...mccarty and barnett can dunk it but its nothing spectacular

[bobcat_baller]

Matt Little...i seen this kid during warm ups and he was really throwing down other night at AC

I agree king...he dose get up pretty high

[Basketball Jones]

agree 100% no one in the 15th can dunk it good ...mccarty and barnett can dunk it but its nothing spectacular
I think that guy was talking about Patton, i saw him dunking it 2 handed , but I didnt see barnett do it, I saw him try but failed, lol poor Shawn Leslie tried .....RIMMMMM STUFFF!

[Batpuff]

What do you consider dunking in a game, someone that dunks in warm-ups or someone that throws them down in the game. because from what i have seen over the last 5 years, i can think of may 4 kids that have put them down during game play, including a kid playing jv ball

[SCHS09]

4 of sheldon clarks starters can dunk....shawn johnson, brandon may, steven goble,and juan carlos

[Get Down, Get Down, UHH!!]

Hey, I was watching a practice for the blackcats the other day and I saw the Patton kid throw a tip slam down, he was throwin it to himself off the rim but it was impressive. Next year he should be throwin it down like crazy in games too!

[You Betcha]

I saw Jamie McCarty throw down a great break-away dunk as a sophomore last year for Johnson Central! So he has to be considered.

Wes Helton for Magoffin County has been dunking in warm ups since his freshman season. This year he has gone for a dunk in a scrimmage game and in the Betsy Layne game. He was fouled both time to prevent the dunk.

Which reminds me, McCarty's dunk was without any defenders around. Still, it was a great throw down!

As far as dunking in warm ups, I'd be surprised if any team doesn't have at least one player that can do that.

[TOUGHGUY]

More than you would think don't have a single dunker. Sad but true.

[showstoppers4life]

Manae and Zach Buroton from BL candunk pretty easily also the guy from Magoffin County i watched when he played the BL he can throw down

[hornetfan]

Manae and Zach Buroton from BL candunk pretty easily also the guy from Magoffin County i watched when he played the BL he can throw down
That would be senior Wes Helton

[#_4]

i dont think that we will see Manae dunkin anytime soon...in the game against magoffin county he looked scared an like he didnt kno the plays.

[showstoppers4life]

he knows the plays and hes not scared he just trying to get use to the way we play ball here in America its a whole lot diffrent then where he played at in Serbia and he might have dunked it if he didnt get busted up during the game

[#_4]

Busted up? I watched the game an didnt see anything happen to him. I talked to a player from Besty Layne and they told me that he still doesnt know the plays yet an gets nervous playin, but in open gym an stuff he does good.

[Saleen_Insanity]

I agree with you betcha, hes tried and and was fouled to prevent it, I expect him to keep try and I believe that he will achieve quite a few dunks this season

[rosco]

Well the 15th isn't known for there dunkers, but Jamie McCarty is still the best in game dunker I have seen in the last few years in the 15th reigon...

[FATMAN]

wes helton is bound to throw down one in any of there games he came close 2 dunking it @ BL but he got fouled

[TIGER FAN]

....

[blackcatpride06]

what about nick potter from SV. I saw him throw down in the game vs. JC last year. Does he still play?

[IBleedRed]

Patton from P-burg can throw it down off a lob...next year he will be throwin it down for sure...

[TOUGHGUY]

Next year anyone might be able to dunk it. Were focusing on right now redbleeder and right now we have less than 5 dunks probably in a game in the last 2 years. Warmups don't matter, practice dont matter, no practice or warmup points count in your stats so neither does the dunks.

[bballcrazee]

Dunks in warm ups don't count on stats, but they sure get the fans involved before the game even starts.

[TOUGHGUY]

Good point, but we don't have over 5 people in the region that can actually throw a ball down consistently.

[Bob Knight]

For SC Shaun Johnson is throwing down easy as well as Juan Torrez is throwing down easy. Steven Goble is throwing down pretty good and BMay can get one down every once in a while. My boy was throwing down easy the last 2 years but did a couple too many 12 oz curl this summer and has put on 10 or 15 lbs. When he gets his extra weight offf he'll be throwing down easy again.

[Matt_Knee]

i'm gonna have to go with juan carlos torres from Sheldon Clark. He hasnt had the oppurtunity to throw it down yet, but when he does, its nasty..he's got mad hops

[Juice]

Jamie Mccarty

[billybob]

At the Lawrence vs. Paintsville game, I saw the Spradlin kid almost get one down. I also saw a kid. Didn't get the name looked to be one of the taller kids on the team put it down pretty hard.

[thetribe]

I saw some guys from Valley throwing some down last year but I think that most of them have graduated. High school dunking is just...I don't know, not many players can do it BUT if and when they do in a game then it REALLY gets the crowd into it. Pregame dunking is cool I guess and it just shows that you can do it but without doing it in the game, what's the point?

[FrAnKeE]

omg, who cares who is the best dunker in the 15th, dunkin does not win ballgames

[#_4]

omg, who cares who is the best dunker in the 15th, dunkin does not win ballgames
I agree. even if they can dunk it they usually dont get a chance to in a game so whats it matter.

[TheKiller20]

McCarty Dunks Better In Warm Ups I Think Cuz He Gets So Pumped..

[B_Baller]

Betsy Laynes forein guy can put it down awsome. He would have to be one of the best around he can really get up. Trai witt from betsy layne can put it down pretty good to but not like the forein guy.

[Sidelines]

yeah rosco the broken foot Mccarty suffered will affect his dunking abilities.....but i was watchin the center Martin from AC and he can get up dotnt get me wrong....but he is just a lil bit short of puttin it down....if he could get his legs stronger he will be slammin in no time!

Funny i saw Mccarty bowling two days after he broke his foot...:getwell:

[DNTKNME]

shawn johnson dunks tremendously, brandon may gets up pretty high, juan carlos dunks good and steven goble gets up good for a sophmore..

[blackcatpride06]

Manae, the foreign exchange student from BL can really throw down

[Tough Turf]

MCCarty

[footlocker]

Mccarty

[XxXxRebelxXxX]

juan carlos is a very good dunker hes can jump way frickin hi

[bigmike06]

the Valley kids... about everyone of them can get up./.. and trust me ive seen in game dunkage

[cheerchick]

Sorry but Matt Little from SF isn't as great as everyone thinks. Im not saying anything bad about him either I just think everyone over estimates this kid.

[ACE]

the Valley kids... about everyone of them can get up./.. and trust me ive seen in game dunkage

Against who? Were these dunks on fastbreaks? Who are some of the dunkers?

[Homer Simpson]

mccarty i dunno if his ankle has effected his jumping or not but i know he could throw it down

[B R E]

Jarrod Gibson

[Pike Central Fan]

Brad Lowe Can Trow it down

[russianman51]

jamie mccarty can really throw it down

[Batpuff]

You know this thread is going know where, how many have dunked in a game this year? I havent seen or heard of anyone Dunking in a game. You cant count Dunking in warm ups!

[bballjunky]

Mane Klokocar from Betsy Layne. Saw him throw 2 down during their practice the other day. They were tomohawks.

[rain man]

i saw Matt Little getting up other night at AC...he is the only one on the team that tries dunking it...i think someone said he got on a fast break and dunked on #21 from Knott Central other night

[TheKiller20]

NO ONE IN THE 15th CAN REALLY DUNK THAT GOOD.....

[rain man]

Matt can..he was hurt or something when they played Johnson Central

[KY BOI]

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

NO ONE IN THE 15th CAN REALLY DUNK THAT GOOD.....
I agree Killer, I mean untill You are dunking in the game or at least making attempts , you cannot be consider a good dunker and every player in the 15th falls into this category

[rain man]

matt dunked it in a game against Knot County

[Mr.Street]

Brad Lowe from pike central has been throwing it down lately

[Juice]

Mathew Little from Mud Creek?

[ACE]

McCarty from JC is prob the best i have seen in the 15th

[BasketBallonlyfan]

One reason I think that players dont really try to dunk that much around here is because if they miss, they are afraid they will get laughed at. I look at it like this, if you can dunk in layups, or dunk when you are shooting by yourself, you should try it in a game. One of two things will happen, either you will make it or miss it, same as every other shot that is taken. If a player tries to dunk, and misses, at least he had the nerve to try it. That isnt a reason to laugh at them for attempting it.

[rain man]

Matt little is not afraid...but if you are guarding him you better watch out or you will get POSTERIZED

[ACE]

I agree it will make the games more exciting. However a lay up is a def. two points, in a close game go with the lay up unless you can dunk on a consistent basis.

I agree. I love seeing dunks in games.

[bballcrazee]

If you think you can make a dunk in a close game, I think you should try it. In almost every game, someone misses a shot up under the goal or a layup when they shoot them. So what is the difference?

[ACE]

A dunk gets the fans way more excited than a lay up.

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

Yeah I saw Brad Lowe throw down a few in warm up's the other night. I also saw them giving him alley oops as well.

[rain man]

yeah...i seen it too...the kid can really get up

[bballcrazee]

So what exactly is your position on this "ACE"? Do you think they should try to dunk or not? One post, you say go for the layup, it is a sure two. The next post, you say the dunks gets the fans and players excited.

[BasketBallonlyfan]

Ok, has anyone dunked in a game this year yet? If not, then I guess the first one who does it in a game is the best untill we have someone to compair it to....I know I have not heard of anyone dunking in a game to date.

[Get Down, Get Down, UHH!!]

Hey, P-burg has a few that can throw down. Lewis Barnette throws a few down every warm-up and Trevor Patton goes crazy with those two handed dunks of his but of course, he's 6' 6''. He finally comes back from suspension tomorrow against Shelby Valley and he'll be playin JV as well. They also have Tyler Mullins who get a few down every time but they have another kid who threw down at Allen Central for the Blackcats during warm-ups and he busted the friggin rim! I don't know anything about him except that he's about 6'4'' or 6'5'' and his number is 44, thats it. I wanna know who that guy is cause he came out of nowhere on me and that usually doesn't happen.

[ACE]

I agree

[Cartman]

Nobody

[ACE]

If you dont have the nerve to dunk in a game then you might as well not be able to dunk period. Who cares who can dunk in warm ups? I would love for our region to have more dunks in games but i dont see it happening.

[BeaverCreek Connection]

Glad to hear that Patton takes the hardwood tomorrow, I have heard he is really a great kid. I saw those two handed dunks at AC in the panarama, it was awesome. Cant wait to see this kid as a senior next year. I also saw him at AC vs Pburg game and man his arms look really pumped. He is still slim, but I see him bulking up.

[numbaonestunna]

McCarty. IMO once he gets back into the swing of things he'll be able to dunk it again. If he continues to work hard and improve then he'll still be the best dunker in the region. And no he hasn't dunked it this year because he hasn't really been able to play due to his injury, but he did last year.

[IDONTEVENKNOW]

Considerind the fact not many can dunk I'll have to go with McCarty

[Falcons#23BS]

i was watchin joe tiller the other night in warm up and he was dunking pretty good off lobs from their center brandon caudill

[cardinalman90]

shawn johnson dunks with ease:theman:

[jayblackcat2006]

Until someone else throws it down in a game, McCarty is the only one.

[BasketBallonlyfan]

Which game did McCarty dunk in?

[The Retarded Frog]

SF...last year i seen him dunk on a fast break...i went nuts...i never expected it

[BasketBallonlyfan]

I gotta ask this, can McCarty or anyone else in the region stand flat footed and just jump up and dunk without taking a step or dribble?

[chicken wing]

McCarty is the only 1

[BasketBallonlyfan]

Ummm, McCarty isnt the only one who can anymore....

[Basketball Jones]

Trevor Patton can stand under the goal, no dribble, jump up and 2 handed dunk it.

[ACE]

Trevor Patton can stand under the goal, no dribble, jump up and 2 handed dunk it.

I'd like to see this.

[Basketball Jones]

Are you saying "id like to see this" because you don't think he can do it or you just wanna see somebody do it?
'

[basketballstar]

How tall is Trevor Patton?

[ACE]

Are you saying "id like to see this" because you don't think he can do it or you just wanna see somebody do it?
'

I have no clue whether he can do it or not, but i would like to see him do it.

[Sony33]

How tall is Trevor Patton?6'6

[bballmama]

until i see someone dunk IN a game this year I am gonna say no one ..as they say talk is cheap lets see some action:bounce:

[Grizzly]

Cade Riddle from SV can go straight up flat-footed and dunk it, I also saw him go straight up and reverse it. If he had a little better footwork he could dunk in games no problem.

[BeaverCreek Connection]

I have no clue whether he can do it or not, but i would like to see him do it.

I saw the Patton kid at the AC Panaroma standing flat footed two hand slamming at will. He probably did it 10-15 times.

[Bo Duke]

Quit lieing i know he cant dunk it....on a 10 foot goal.

[Patton19]

lol i saw a guy fro magoffin with the light blonde hair asnd the tattoo jump up and tomahawk it, it was crazy, this guy is only like 6 foot tall, he has mad hops.

[BasketBallonlyfan]

But as of this date, no one has dunked in a game yet, or have they? If not, we dont have a best dunker this year. McCarty did last year, I know that. But with broken foot and all, he most likely isnt the best this year.

[football player]

ethan johnson,and mason hall

[BasketBallonlyfan]

ethan johnson,and mason hall
Can they even dunk?

[football player]

yea they try in warm-ups they just dont make it

[Cya Tournament TIme]

justin slone....mad hops

[Homer Simpson]

i agree

[BasketBallonlyfan]

yea they try in warm-ups they just dont make it
Well, if they just try it and dont make it, then sorry, they are not the best....

[Homer Simpson]

i believe that its good cuz atleast they try

[chicken wing]

no homer it jus makes them look bad....go for a normal lay up if u cant dunk it i swear it counts the same ....i disagree with u homer very badly

[bruiser52]

I would be tryin 2 tear the rim down it looks a little better than a lay up

[BenchBoy]

im just posting to play games

[M.V.P.]

Josh Martin is AC's center and he can dunk it! he recently had an injury and he si not the type to show off but he can!

[TIGER FAN]

yea

[The Misfit]

dunks do look better i have to admit but these things where they throw the ball up and then grab the rim looks rediculous....what would u even call that??

[bruiser52]

I agree misfit ........dunk it if u can but if u cant dunk it clean then jus dont try

[BOBKATS4LIFE]

__________________Trai Witt________________ Junior from Betsy Layne can throw down!!!!!

[Eagle Fan 06]

All I have to say is Big Number 40 KYLE RICE Best in the 15th

[BasketBallonlyfan]

Has big number 40 Kyle Rice dunked in a game yet this year?

[TERMINATOR X]

the best dunker in the 15th is without a doubt Brandon Murray from paintsville

[jcmadman]

Josh Martin is AC's center and he can dunk it! he recently had an injury and he si not the type to show off but he can!
he tried many times during warmups of the ac-jc game and failed every time!!!

[jcmadman]

the best dunker in the 15th is without a doubt Brandon Murray from paintsville
Come on man hes lucky to get backboard!!!:insane:

[Ice man]

Everyone wants to see a dunk in a game except the opposing team. When someone tries to dunk it. The defender tries to take him out. Its not worth it.

[BasketBallonlyfan]

Well, untill someone else gets some in game dunkage, I guess the best dunker in the 15th up to this date is Deven Adams of Pikeville. He got a two handed slam against Raceland. Any others to compair to?

[Doc Holliday]

I watched him in warmups and he was jamming them down!!!!

[OU_Bruiser]

Good point, but we don't have over 5 people in the region that can actually throw a ball down consistently.i would say there is hardly any one that can consistantly in the 15th

[BasketBallonlyfan]

Out of all these names that was thrown out here. None of them have in game dunkage... only one does, so does that make him the best this year?

[bill tom]

Jamie McCarty is by far the best in the region......
I would say 8-9 players can throw it down clean for JC
There throwing it off the glass, off the lob, off the ground anyway you can think of.

[love@bball]

During warm-up's at the Belfry vs. ER game (at Belfry).. I saw #55 of ER throw down..which came out of no where.. (((((:CE_DP_Ste))))))
:dance:

[BasketBallonlyfan]

How many of them have actually dunked in games this year though?

[GoodTimeCharlie]

JAMIE MCCARTY...I Always See Him Dunking In The Gym After Practice. It's Crazy.

[BasketBallonlyfan]

JAMIE MCCARTY...I Always See Him Dunking In The Gym After Practice. It's Crazy.How many in game dunks does he havethis year?

that was eric arnett, and yes that boy can jump lol

[-XXX-]

Jamie McCarty from JC! He's one of the few that can even dunk it!

[#7]

i know chip davis can dunk it but his coack cant see wat this kid can do i warm ups he'll non-chellentley(?) just jup up and do a reverse

[billybob]

Mitch Copley from Lawrence can dunk with two hands pretty cleanly in warm-ups.

[BasketBallonlyfan]

i know chip davis can dunk it but his coack cant see wat this kid can do i warm ups he'll non-chellentley(?) just jup up and do a reverse
What do you mean his coach cant see what he can do? He was either starting or getting major minutes untill his ankle sprain. He hasnt even dressed for games sense then. Could you explain that remark?

[Jiggsaw]

my opion is jamie mccarty. but jc has a few freshmen that is close to dunkin but they have a 6'6 freshman can throw it down 2-handed but he is movin to owen co. other wise ryan fannin and kyle rice is gettin closer and closer to dunkin every day in practice.

[Waterbug5]

4 of sheldon clarks starters can dunk....shawn johnson, brandon may, steven goble,and juan carlos

What??? Spud can't dunk it?/?:BigLaugh:

[BasketBallonlyfan]

Well, big Dev got his 2nd and 3rd in game dunkage of the year against Pike County Central in a Freshman game today... Go ahead and say it, freshman games dont count or something....

[roush racing]

dont forget eric arnett from magoffin he can put em down to...i remember this year in warm ups sum of magoffins pople were dunkin n warm ups and they got a T for it
