I'M WATCHING SLAMBALL ON YOUTUBE

relive the magic with me won't you....



my son is wearing a headband that says INCHES!!!!

who thought of this ridiculousness?

Man i remember being so excited for this as a kid

I remember telling folks I was going to be a slam Baller when I grew up if I didn't make it to the NBA. Needless to say, slam all didn't last. However i do still slam balls

Really makes me wonder how much they were paid. Also makes me wonder what the Slamball coaches were doing before and after Slamball, because I can't imagine how someone could possibly be qualified to coach Slamball.

damn i miss this, id love to give this a try

I always WISHED they's somehow open up a place to do this in Seattle back in the day.

I still love the position names "gunner" "stopper"

is that hoop higher than regulation?

only reason i ask is that if its not, these cats look like they aren't jumping much higher than those And 1 dunk contest specialists...how they are not "jumping out the gym" on trampolines is beyond me

Lmao

Why did slamball fold tho?

Someone die or get paralyzed?

The commentators taking this seriously is the best thing ever.

He really was out here coaching this nonsense 

Got himself a chip though , let that man coach the Sixers for a week just because.

Bruh was out there building a dynasty lmao

Hold up Jon starks, Kenny Anderson were coaches ? Lol

Rocket Ismail the CFL return guy was a coach?

Whatever happened to Slam Ball? I remember it being on Spike or something back in the day after RAW or whatever...

Didn't even realize it lasted to '08 lol

After one of the guys basically folded his leg in half on one of the tramps, I couldn't watch anymore. It was shortly after my ACL injury too, which didn't help either.

They should have the nba allstar game played slamball style

This and the XFL were classic

I used to think this man was the GOAT

My college teammate/roommate straight up left school in the Spring his senior year in order to tryout when it came back in 2008...He made it! 

I can't remember what team, but I think he was a reserve. Said it was the funnest sport he ever played.
