If you've got the time, watch a few of these.

Dunking has become such a huge status symbol. Ask any grade 10 basketball player and they will tell you how much they want to dunk. It's quite the feeling. Success in sports is euphoria - you've beaten the game, you've not cheated but you've completely dominated your opponent (if you really have time, look up some David Beckham free kicks). Sometimes, basketball seems like such a timewaster, but your whole self flourishes - has shalom - and sings praises - when you dunk. I've been doing a lot of leg presses lately.
