So... no experience with this?

Single leg dunk at 9'8 is not that bad...

Thank you for your one-leg jumps, you should do that more often. Try getting the ball with both palms the next time, see what happens (I can't, I always have this tendency to "throw" my left arm downwards when I dunk, but you might not).

 

I could come like that in my plant when I was 17-18 years old. No power, but I could use that speed. I was 67 kg in weight.

Here's a sample of my former speed, although it isn't my best by any means, at 0:09

Flip is at a point now that he won't gain too much from improving his approach. He was far away from this point in the past but improved I'd say dramatically (this is not a big word by any means - it's real) in the last week or so. You really need to "power" yourself in a two-leg jump. Obviously, you need great movement efficiency and strength to prevent your knees from collapsing if you do it though.

I could try the same thing Flip did and my knees would collapse and mess my jump up.

So at this point, besides some better approach (a bit more speed under control if anything) - he's going to be limited by maximal strength. Increase that and Flip will dunk in games on the regular rim no problems.

He trains with you Lance? Damn.

Then he is definitely dedicated (I'm not ironic by the way). I mean, to actually train with a good trainer and putting in the work it already demonstrates the guy has a different mentality now.

Like I said, if he has a different mindset (and apparently he does) - then welcome. No need to be cocky about it. I actually didn't continue to read anymore once I saw that "finding excuses blah blah blah", I felt it doesn't worth it.
