Anyone been watching the Slamball on ONE HD? Thoughts? Its been reasonably entertaining for a few minutes. Some of these guys have poor fundamentals though. ie trouble catching the ball etc

Yeah its somewhat entertaining in small amounts. Saw a game the other day won on the buzzer. Starks coaching. They have some athletic ability, but it is hard to tell truly how athletic they are with the tramps assisting them.
Alot of dropped catches, generally when guys are bouncing up on the tramp trying to catch a level thrown ball - cant imagine that would be easy to do.

A lot of the guys in the league can slam with out a tramp. As far as judging the athletic ability of the guys....the tramps take a entire different athletic abilty. Being 16 fet in the air, trying to cath the ball, pass the ball, take contact and dunk the ball is a lot harder then we make it look. If you doubt that, come see us at the try outs and see how you do. We always love a new challenge.
