Just because someone is 6'0 tall doesn't mean they can dunk 

I know plenty of dudes 6'0 and even taller than me who can't dunk. 

And I know cars who are like 5'9 who can get well above the rim. 

THIS 
I played with a dude in HS who was 6'11 and could barely dunk. I used to Pin his *+% to the backboard daily.

I'm 6'4" so height has never really been an issue for me, but I don't really understand why dudes get so hung up over it. YOU CAN FIND A CHICK THAT'S SHORTER THAN YOU! I know that doesn't solve it all, but I feel like that would alleviate my most pressing concern. Height is hugely relative.

I look at it that way because I've been losing my hair since I was like 18, and it's not like I can go out and find a chick that's balder than me, so it's always gonna be the same. And I don't have a nicely shaped head so shaving it isn't really gonna do much for me. :/

But I wouldn't trade my height for any amount of hair though.

Well duh, lol. I can reach 2 inches above rim right now, so I can probably dunk if I were 4 or 5 inches taller.

But yeah, it's a waste when tall guys don't have hops.

Why would you wanna get taller to dunk instead of jump higher?

i'm 5'7 or 5'8 ...idrk

Do I wish I could be taller...yes...why?...girls do like men 6'0 and above...and i'd like to be able to have my head closer to the clouds.

But i've settled and came to terms long ago that this is my height and you gotta use what you have to the best of your abilities. The faster you come to terms with your skill set the closer you'll get to optimizing them.

Man being short must suck. I wish I was a little bit taller, but damn I'm happy I'm not below 5'10.

Ah ok, so you already have somewhat of a leaping ability. I thought you were just short and thought that being taller = dunking 

Honestly, just work on your legs bruh. It really works. Get those calf muscles and thigh muscles stronger, and you'll be up there.
