Yo, listen up, you young folks! Today, I gonna talk about that highest NBA vertical thing. That basketball, you know? Them boys jump so high, it’s like they got springs in their shoes. They jumpin’ real good. You know what I’m sayin’? It’s like a good vertical jump, them players, they’re just about jump over 30, 35 inches. And they can jump even higher, them boys.
Now, I seen some jumpin’ in my days, but these fellas, they somethin’ else. There’s this one fella, what’s his name? Oh yeah, Michael Jordan. That’s the one! That boy, he could jump so high, it’s like he was flyin’. They say he got the highest NBA vertical, somethin’ like 48 inches. 48 inches! That’s higher than my kitchen table! I’m not even kiddin’. He’s 6 feet 6, they say. That’s a tall boy right there. Big and tall, and jump like a grasshopper. They say he could hang in the air for almost a whole second. That’s some kinda jumpin, I tell ya.
I seen him on that TV, jumpin’ and dunkin’ that ball. Woo-wee, it was somethin’ to see! I don’t know how they do it, jumpin’ like that. Must be all that trainin’ they do. That’s how they get the highest NBA vertical, I reckon. Runnin’ and jumpin’ all day long. And eatin’ them good vegetables, I bet. That’s what my mama always said, “Eat your greens, and you’ll grow big and strong!” And jump high, I guess!
And there’s other ones too, not just that Jordan fella. There’s a whole bunch of ’em that can jump real good. They got a list, you know, of the top 12 highest NBA vertical jumps, somethin’ like that. I don’t remember all their names, but they all jump like they got rockets in their shoes! Some big jumps, some jaw-dropping thing, they said. I don’t know about the jaw-dropping part, but I seen ’em jump, and it’s pretty darn impressive.
- Michael Jordan – 48 inches!
- That’s the highest one, I think.
- He’s like a jumpin’ bean!
They say there’s even a fella who can jump 50 inches! I don’t know about that, seems kinda high to me. That’s Guinness thing, they say. But in that NBA, Jordan, he’s the king of jumpin’. They measured it and everything, these jumps. They got numbers for it all. Science and stuff, I don’t understand it all, but they know what they’re talkin’ about, I suppose. All I know is they jump high, really high.
And that Zion fella, when he jumps, it’s like watching a bird fly. He is like a big ol’ bird, soaring through the air. That boy can jump, and he’s big too. So, the highest NBA vertical thing is somethin’ else, I tell ya. It’s fun to watch, even for an old lady like me. Keeps me entertained, you know?
Back in my day, we didn’t have all this fancy basketball stuff. We just played outside, runnin’ around, jumpin’ over fences and stuff. We didn’t measure our jumps, we just jumped! But these fellas, they got it down to a science. They know exactly how high they jump, how long they hang in the air, all that stuff. It’s a whole different world now, I tell ya.
But one thing’s for sure, these fellas got some serious hops. They can jump higher than anyone I ever seen. And that Michael Jordan, he’s the king of ’em all. He’s got the highest NBA vertical, and that’s somethin’ special. So next time you see them playin’ basketball on that TV, you just remember what I said. They jumpin’ higher than you can imagine! And it’s all because they worked hard, ate their vegetables, and got springs in their shoes, I guess!
Anyway, that’s all I gotta say about that highest NBA vertical. It’s somethin’ to see, that’s for sure. And those boys, they sure can jump! I hope you young folks are payin’ attention. Maybe you’ll be jumpin’ like that someday! Just eat your vegetables and practice, practice, practice! That’s what they all do. And who knows, maybe you’ll be on that list of the highest jumpers one day!
And all these boys, they jumpin’, they jump real high. They put their heart into it. Like jumpin’ beans. They jumpin’, and they jumpin’ all the time. I don’t know how they do it, but they good. They sure are good.
Well, I gotta go now. My stories are all told. But you remember what I said about that jumpin’. It’s somethin’ else. And that Michael Jordan, he’s the best at it! You young folks keep on jumpin’, and maybe you’ll be up there with him someday! You hear?
