Anyone that can destroy and tear down the entire structure of a basketball rim is insane 😳

@mrboo3049 3 ай бұрын

You forgot DARYL DAWKINS was the first power DUMKER. NIQUE too. Then SHAWN KEMP and SHAQ.. I'm not impressed on the way SHAQ breaks the rim. His 7"1 300 pounds of full WEIGHT power . It's possible for him to take down almost the entire rim. While DAWKINS was 6"10 260-280 pounds but intensely shattered the backboards with his awesome ferocity and power. A natural brute STRENGHT if you ask me. Which makes me in my opinion. DAWKINS was more stronger than SHAQ. As a IMMENSE GROWN MAN BRUTE STRENGHT

@@jayelbee1111 Can you name those pro players that shatters backboards. Not in college level.. before SHAQ. DARYL was the first to have broken and shattered backboards in the pros.. I'm not even surprise that SHAQ 7"1 300 pounds can broke down backboards and took them down because of his WEIGHT combine STRENGHT which makes him a bit heavier But what surprises me is DARYL 6"10 260-280 pounds of NATURAL BRUTE GROWN MAN STRENGHT that can shattered a BACKBOARD that like you said first strike fear in the hearts of the players back in those days. Which is a bit surprise.. a POWER DUNKER that can broke backboards like DOMINIQUE and MJ was gifted by their STRENGHT and high leaping ability which is also great

@jayelbee1111 3 ай бұрын

@mrboo3049 You have to keep in mind that backboards in the NBA during the 1970s were not breakaway rims. Also, backboards in the NBA in that era were made from glass, not plexiglass. Shaquille O'Neal destroyed the backboard that had a breakaway rim and plexiglass, which is very hard to do. But the point I am getting across is that no other player in the NBA has destroyed the entire structure like the way O'Neal has. I mean, he has taken down the entire structure system to include steel frame support, cabling, shot clock, backboard, and rim. And he did it twice in the NBA to include Phoenix and New Jersey. I don't know any other player that has accomplished that. There were other players in the NBA that were bigger than Shaq, but they could not match the strength and power like him. Shaq was ferocious

Well, yes and no. Obviously it was compromised, but it still took a hard dunk to break. Just probably more like 1,000 pounds of pressure since it was compromised rather than 6,000 to break one that isn’t. He’d probably bend the rim and break his fingers before he pulled hard enough on a rim to break healthy steel.
