Re: Lebron Dunks On Camper
What's wrong with that?
So LeBron get's a bit show-offy, dunks a kid and knocks him down accidently?
Nothing wrong with that.
Hell, if that were me, I'd be like "wow, I got dunked by LeBron James! And knocked over! Fuck, I'm never washing this hand again!"

Re: Lebron Dunks On Camper
Yeah but you're playing knockout with a bunch of kids. Not ones who you know, just campers. Its knockout and the kids cant dunk they can only rely on precise shooting and layups. I just think in general its a bit unfair to dunk when the kids cant.Mutant wrote:What's wrong with that?

Re: Lebron Dunks On Camper
maybe he was into the game and wanted to make the shot? I'm willing to bet he wasn't aiming for the kid and don't try to turn this into him "dunking on the camper"..its not like the kid was guarding the basket and LeBron owned him for show..the kid was in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Re: Lebron Dunks On Camper
I agree, I just think its kind of lame that hes even dunking in a game of knockout. The kids cant dunk. They have to shoot and make layups. He just has to attempt a shot, retrieve the ball and dunk. Of course, I would feel differently if these werent campers. If these were kids who were familiar with Lebron and Lebron was familiar with the kids.Pintsizedjark wrote:maybe he was into the game and wanted to make the shot?

Yeah, exactly.
In their hatred of all things LeBron, people seem to forget that the kids were having fun. They can tell their kids in 20 years time they played Knockout with the great LeBron James at summer camp.
I seriously doubt it would have got this level of attention if it had been Dwight Howard or Tim Duncan who had done it. But because it's LeBron James people are acting as if he's molested the kid rather than just play a fun game of Knockout with some kids at camp.

Re: Lebron Dunks On Camper
Yet again, I dont care that he dunked on the kid, it was probably an accident. I want to know why he is even dunking in a game of knockout. Every time I have ever played knockout, dunking hasn't been allowed.Mutant wrote:poshmidget wrote:i bet every kid there loved seeing lebron dunking on them. its a great story for the kid. i loved the video thought it was funny. i heard on espn the kid he dunked on loved it and that lebron gave him some free shoes. no harm done and it was funny.

Obviously it is wikipedia, not the best source, but it doesnt say anything about dunking in knockout.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knockout_(game)
"If a player's initial shot does not go in, he or she may rebound the basketball and attempt to make a basket from any location (most often, a layup would be attempted because it is an easier shot to make than a standard jump shot)"

No reason. He was just messing around. It's not like they were doing some sort of NBA boot Camp. Just something for the kids to do. He was just showing off.

You have to be well over 6 foot tall and a great jumper to dunk.
Maybe that's why it's not in the "rule book"? It's a playground game. It doesn't have set rules. I played this as a kid too and there was no way in hell I could have dunked. The basket was jut too far above my head.
Maybe LeBron plays a different version of Knockout since he's a pro basketball player with the height and vert needed to dunk?
Or maybe he was just showing the kids some cool moves?

Re: Lebron Dunks On Camper
Lol I hope he was missing those shots just to make it fair.
BTW, thanks for telling me that there would be a hyena in this video as well. God damn, I should have muted my sound...
