Shaquille Johnson’s Hops Are Obscene

I guess when your name is Shaquille Johnson, you have to be pretty good at basketball. But no one could have predicted this… Here’s more fire from Hoopmixtape (Johnson’s committed to Auburn by the way). The next Chris Porter?

Who’s the best high school dunker you’ve ever seen?

    whoa dude can jump out the building. some of his dunks looks like they straight from a video game

  • Kobeeeee

    Crazy. Like a slam dunk contest in a game.

  • beiber newz

    he gets a 10 for most of those dunks. but with that said, i’m pretty confident in saying WE WILL NEVER HAVE ANYONE WHO CAN MATCH OR SURPASS VINCE CARTER’S ATHLETICISM. still think he could do more in the air than, yes, michael jordan.

    1:26 mark. Waited on the kid, then wrecked him…cold

    dude is crazy-good…does he have a game so we can actually see him come to the NBA (yes, I’m lookin at YOU, Flight White)? He needs to make the McD’s team to get in the contest.

    @ beiber newz

    I agree 100%. Vince wasn’t a better player than MJ but he was more athletic and a better dunker than he was.

  • hahns

    That shit is fucking RI-GOT DAMN-DICULOUS!!!!!!

    that was some old Shawn Kemp type shit.

    This kids needs a camera on him 24-7 at all his games.

    With him at Auburn and Hillman at Alabama. that game should be on ESPN for sure.

  • KnicksFan

    that last dunk was “Cold blooded”

  • (bobby) truthe revealed

    @ promoman..yessir. vince appeared to have brought an invisible trampoline on the court when he took off. if only he had better players surrounding him. we would probably look at him as more than a youtube sensation. but i respect his game. he did a lot. he could pass. he could shoot, from DISTANCE. he could break ankles. he had the capability to score 50. he wasn’t just a jumper. he knew how to use his talent, just disappeared and, sorry to say, choked at critical times. but he would be a special player had he been on teams that competed for championships.

    Can he go off one foot?

  • beiber newz

    ^as a dunker myself…i always thought it was easier to dunk off one foot. i was shocked the day i heard someone say they are used to just going off two and they have trouble going off one.

    on anutha not, i was shocked to also find out guys who write, and do pretty much everything with their left hand shoot right handed jumpers.

    That’s sick!

    “Vince appeared to have brought an invisible trampoline on the court when he took off. if only he had better players surrounding him.”
    “but he would be a special player had he been on teams that competed for championships.”

    Yeah. If only he had played with a better point guard than Jason Kidd, or a better center than Dwight Howard, or if only he was on teams that had made the Finals but were missing a key piece. Dumb comment.
    FYI, the Nets and the magic both made the Finals prior to Vince arriving there. What happened when he got to those teams? He was a let-down. He was extremely talented, and possibly one of the most naturally gifted players I’ve ever seen but don’t make it seem like Vince wasn’t in good opportunities. He jogged through everything when the league is a sprint.

    Half-ass, half-a-woman.

  • JAY

    This kid is real life NBA Jam.

  • beiber newz

    i don’t know how to respond to that. if you think having just jason kidd makes you a contender then…smh. also dwight doesn’t automatically make you a good “team”. i don’t wan tto go to deep into this. do your research on google and see what other analyst have to say about the ‘teams’ vince has been on. i dont want to argue. why call some dumb for a comment they said unless they insulted you? have some respect. if you didn’t agree simply tell me why. grow up. stop calling people names when you don’t like something. fuck off and leave me be…

  • beiber newz

    DEAR JAY,

    the sad part is you’re probably insulting me in order for OTHER PEOPLE to get a kick out of it. psychologically, that shows either you had a bad parented home or you were a dumpster baby, found in the trash by nuns. you seek attention from any medium, even if it’s online. that anger you showed toward me was not provoked. you just came out and said it. it shows low tolerance, possibly because your father couldn’t tolerate anything your mother did. perhaps her bad cooking. growing up, you probably witnessed a lot of abuse and it’s all you know. he probably used to beat her in font of you. so your aggressive nature is also displayed within that comment. so you emulate those emotions. also, growing up in such an unstable home probably led to a lack of attention like i previously stated. so you resort to the only form of appreciation you know how to obtain which is to get attention by mocking other people. you seek other men’s approval. is this because you could never get your father’s approval? did he call you a mistake? were the result of a broken condom? i’m just analyzing your comment simply from a psychological standpoint. honestly, if you want attention, you can start by saying hi. it works 90% of the time unless you are trying to talk to women who 99% of the time might be out your league. the last 1% is left for your own mother, who also must have had relationship problems of her own, which is displayed by her staying in such an abusive relationship. i wouldn’t be shocked if she expressed her love in an unconventional way toward you by sexually empowering herself on you as an adolescent. she sought you out, not for the love of a child, but for ungodly sex. this madness of a childhood could explain where your unwarranted aggression toward me emerged from. i advise you to seek out help. if you are still a prisoner of that unstable household (or trailer park) go find a church and they will help you to live among other children who also seek the love they have so often been deprived of.

    -sincerely,
    The Beib.
