  1. We all know this.. we used to lower the rim and dunk on each other. After the game I’d have bruises on my wrists and my fingers would swell up sometimes. Even though it hurts, it still feels good and a good hard dunk can change the momentum of a game.

  2. It's more painful when you grab the rim and your arm automatically lifts your body. Imagine that, I was about 200 lbs at the time and I did an unwanted 1 arm pull up. 😢 😂
