Now I gotta wait a half hour to watch the last part again
Lol
😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣
Hahahahha
Bro same
He looks like he stays In shape. Perk on the other hand would stay 10 toes down.
Edit: tf I was high asf when I wrote this, thank yall.
10 bowls down
10 rolls down
10pk hotdogs on back of his neck
10 toes down and face down
If Perk tried to jump his knees would just implode
Perk look like high school linemen coach 🤣
they all big burly n tall asf😂😭
Took the words out of my mouth
Look like the dude from the blind side 😂
Lets not forget prime Richard would put you on a poster.
Yeah he was nasty with it back in the day.
Wrd up
RJ on KD
Old man RJ put Klay on a poster
Him and Vinsanity on the same team was nice
This was 30 sec too long
Hard to believe that is 36inch vert. That would be 90cm vertical so his head would almost hit the rim🤔
Agreed!
My thoughts exactly
@@jjjyli686 do you know who he is?
That's what she said
How does this affect ESPN’s legacy
somoene gotta ask skip "How does this affect Lebron’s legacy"
Don't matter chuck beats all of them in a race to the board
Idk but maybe they can "turn back the hands of time and give a throwback performance."
@@taiwan.1 "LeBron played with the greatest role player of all time, Richard Jefferson. The 2016 Warriors really had no chance from the start. Makes the achievement less impressive. Soft era."
Lebron’s*
The difference between then and now?
Then: he could do that jump again in a couple minutes
Now: he could do that jump again in a couple weeks
He could do it again immediately back in the day
It’s true. I’m 35 now can still dunk at 6,1. But If I go hard one day on the court it takes a couple days to recover now.
Same, still can dunk. Not the best idea though. Live life under the rim when youre over 30
@@TobiTobiTobi1 say it louder!
@@TobiTobiTobi1 cap Lebron James still dunking hard at nearly 49
Vince said, in like his 40th nba season, it isn’t going up that is the problem, it is the coming down that hurts. 😶 I could not fathom jumping so high that it hurts coming down.
This is why I mainly do box jumps now.. you land at minimum velocity. Full jumps put a ton of strain on tiny little stabilizing muscles 😅
That is how it is for me. I'm 33 still have a 40 inch vertical but I'm 6ft. Going up isn't the issue for me. I have more room to travel coming down and I only give my team one good jump per game hahaha. When you get older you learn how to play below the rim so I maneuver a little more precisely now.
@@lordmarsgaming1935 what does it mean to play below the rim?
@@GrapheneOxideIsInCVVax stop trolling me lol 😂 I know I’m old jeez.
@@lordmarsgaming1935 lol it was a genuine question .. just didnt feel like googling but lmk if i should
Perk should do this lmao
You're going to need to figure out how to turn the gravity down for him.
Put a chicken wing up there
@@sterlinart if that happened perk would have the highest vertical in nba history
@@999triple4 🤣 he’d mess around and get a triple double
@@sterlinart lmao
Dude was a certified bucket on the nets, and immensely helped the cavs 2015/2016… underrated asf
RJ with the nets and b scott coaching was an exciting 2/3 year run…
I was in awe of RJ’s hops/dunks!!!
I’m a fan 🤙🏽🙏💯
and Keith Van Horn, Jason Kidd, Kenyon Martin, The Center Collins, , Kerry Kittles, Chris Gatling, and Richard Jefferson Were The Main Players From
Those Years 2000-03 They Were Very Good and Went To The. NBA Finals in 2001.But Kobe and Shaq's Lakers Were Too Much For Them.....4 - 1 They Signed
Vince Cárter in 03 or 04 and They Continue Stay Relevant For a Couples Of More Years......But Not Like That Run
From 2000 - 2005. They Were Fun To Watch, With Kidd Alley Oops Passes To Carter....as Soon The G🏀AT Michael Jordan Went To Retirement in 1998
All Those Teams Specially From The East, Like, The Knicks1999, Pacers 2000
, Sixers 2001 Were To The Finals in Consecutives Years......But All Loose
Against Kobe-Shaq's Lakers..That Both Could Have Been Won 3 or 4 More
If SHAQ Were More Commited To 🏀Basquetball and Less To Others Distracción, Like Movies, Rap Albums
and Eating Too Much....i THINK Kobe
WAS Angry With Him, When Shaq Came
Over Weight in The 04 -05 Pre-Season..and That Was His Second.
Season Coming in Bad Shape....and. I Think The Next Season. He Went To Miami. Were He Won He Last 🏆 Ship..
Just ask Klay he remembers 🤣🤣💯
You mean Shaun Livingston?
Boy what are you talkin about? Go look up the video
RJ could still come off the bench for most nba teams
he'd be out of the rotation depending on team to team
Cap
Pistons 😭😭
Yeah giving spell minutes but he wouldn’t be part of the rotation
@@CertifiedPG sorry, I didn’t realize that I said “RJ could win 6th man of the year”
We remember old Richard caught a body against klay
And kd in the same game
I want to see Perk do it
Pause
Me too.... 😂
Warriors are offering you a minimum contract.. Jefferson you taking it?
He once joked about coming out of retirement
They need that length.
This took a long time for me not to be able to fast forward it
Was just picturing Tom Segura the entire time lol
Why's that?
@@simonsantacroce1589 look at Tom Segura dunking. Might be graphic for some
You know it's real when you ask a question lmaooo "is that the rim??"
This for some reason reminds me of that old saying of Brian Scalabrine being closer to LeBron than most of us are to Brian Scalabrine.
“This is hilarious 😑”
When you are older, you don’t lose your straight line speed and hops that much, because these are power based, and power is something that you can keep very well as long as you stay in shape.
What you lose the most as you get older is your reflexes and your ability to change direction, and your ability to do anything that’s higher intensity than running straight and jumping every once in a while.
RUclips needs to add rewind and forward feature for shorts.
He flew with Vince Carter in his prime recieving passes from Kidd. Respect!
Right as a went, "Is he even in court shoes?" It went, *Regretting my shoe choice* lmao
Love coach perk!!! Miss you playing for us big man!!
🧢
I though he was gonna get like 30 😂
It’s not measured accurately. They didn’t set to vertec to his standing reach and instead the basketball rim so his vert is way over estimated
@@juha9452 wym how
@@juha9452 bro you deduct the standing reach from whatever he touched to get the vert 😂
@@juha9452 you have zero clue what you’re talking about 😂
@@YungJay216 it's ironic because he does know what he's talking about 🤣 you never played football or basketball and it shows lol so jokes on you 🤣
Him ..Kenyon martin.Martin.. jkidd on the nets omggggg what a show
Bruh i know everything hurt after that and perk knees hurt just from watching
I met him in Chicago. Real nice guy!
Since when do you get a running start to do a vertical?
Well this is a max vert measurement otherwise mj wouldn't be highest jumper in nba history (officially) so they gota do dis
Since the combine started measuring verts
Thankyou!
Bruh!! Thank u!
Running and standing vertical jumps are way different physically. Standing vertical is cool, but is kinda useless for an NBA player unless you're a big man that needs that straight up jump to defend and block shots. Almost every single jump in the NBA (AND NFL) is running or with some drop-step start. My standing vertical was bad because I had a weak posterior chain (glutes and hams) because of APT (anterior pelvic tilt). I had a 24" standing vert and a 34" running vertical as a junior in high school. It doesn't take a big run-up for me, but there's a difference. I'm also a 1 foot jumper. My VMO on my left leg (teardrop muscle on the quad) is still bigger than my right leg because my left leg is more conditioned to explode. Everybody's different. Running-one-foot and running-two-foot verticals are by far the best ways to achieve the highest vertical jump. Generally, you should be able to achieve your best jump with a running two-foot jump. Look at the best NBA leapers. Standing vertical only looks at explosion from the glutes and hips from a standing position. You don't cheat by running lmao. Then that means both Olympic lifting lifts are cheating because they rely SOLEY on technique to lock weights out.
That would actually be fun to watch. Bunch of ex players doing the draft combine and scrimmaging and having teams acting like they’d pick em in order of what they looked like in the combine.
Bro go back, Lebron needs you
Hw won 3 chips without rj hes fine lmao
@@victordelacruz4449 But the one with RJ was the most important one
He should also recruit Shaq and Vince. LeBron was on the right track last year but he just didn't go far enough. For next year, he could make sure that he has enough experience.
LeBron needs some defense
Perk has Horizontal to the kitchen instead of vertical !! 😂
“That seems high” is said by everyone who lost their hops. lol
Said that about a "low" hoop at the Y recently. I used to dunk on it easily in game situations 15 yrs ago. Now it's a smooth lay lol
@@_dboy_ lol. They both count for two!
He pulled EVERY muscle in his torso. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Impressive 🎯
Surprisingly Jefferson one of the better dunkers in gametime action back in the day
Hi vertical was definitely over 40 in his prime, dude had bounce
It says 38.5
@@357jp357 his vertical was definitely over 40 in his prime, dude had bounce
That’s not a vertical, you don’t get to run you have to stand in one spot and jump up for your vertical he’s just jumping
@@shanelasker9069 that's a vertical
@@357jp357 38.5 is pre-rookie draft numbers. They normally don't test post-draft numbers unless the person themselves do it. He definitely got stronger and more athletic inside of his career.
One of my favorite players ever
That doesn’t look like 36 inches at all, that looks like 24 MAX 💀
It isn’t 36 lol. His standing reach isn’t 8’2” so there’s no way that could be a 36 inch jump.
@@samfolkestad1726i just checked out he has a 8ft 7 standing reach on combine.
Richard, it was a pleasure watch you play!!!!!!
I was just WAITING for Vince Carter to run up from behind him while he was stalling and touch 40.
Perk you barely could touch it in your playing days. Show me. 🤣🤣🤣 love you Big Perk
"This is hilarious"😐
Jefferson had/has great athleticism. He was a beast in his hey days. Underrated.
even tho he bald, this mad impressive
Tymar?
@@edwinbennett3454 oh i’m not dissing any bald dunkers. just goofin on jefferson egg headahh 🥚🥚🥚
He baptized Klay like 3 years ago 🤣
That's easy if your lean 6'7 wit a 7 foot wing spand
A 36 inch vertical not "easy" no matter your height or wingspan🤦🏾♂️
Richard Jefferson is a beast. You can't even lie about that. Look at this man he's had lifelong asthma and still has insane athletic ability. This is coming from an asthmatic so I can really understand how difficult sports can be and basketball with its high pace is probably the worst on somebody with asthma.
perk would break the floor if he tried
Rich & perk are hilarious salute kings
“This is hilarious 😐”
It’s crazy to me that NBA guys vertical is tested off a running start.
I mean pretty much anytime they're jumping in games, its off a jog or run
@@raisschultz420 same with the NFL but they don’t use running start. If they did you’d see a lot of guys in the mid to high 40’s.
@@j.l.6008 I'd like to see that, because those are world-class numbers. Anything over 42" is the genetic elite, you have to be straight born with that ability. Even with PED's and hard work, only the genetic elite will get above 40-42".
you wouldn't. they don't test vertical anymore for a lot of players tho in the NBA, imagine Ja Morant or sum'. @@j.l.6008
It bugs me when ppl, especially white women say “this us hilarious in a monotone voice/not laughing
Ok...
It’s ok, a girl will give you their phone number someday when your attitude changes…
@@jayst9270 ok bot. Saying something is funny and sounding like a robot is me having a problem 🙄
@@Michaelengelmann Does not compute but seriously you just said you have a problem, especially with white women. Stop promoting racial strife…
@@jayst9270 say the whole quote, don’t cherry pick to fit ur pos narrative bot. I’m talking abt when ppl say “omg, this is so funny” in a monotone voice & yea more white ppl do it, my cousin does it, the kardashian family do it, ok bot? Gtfo with that racist bs
Dude Was Da Man, Make No Mistake About it... Fabulous NBA Career...
Championship with the Cavaliers
Bro hurry up
He was a great leaper even at Arizona . One of his best attributes. RJ was a good player.
He's supposed to stand still and jump. No take a running start.
can YOU do it?
U do know that there’s a standing and a running vertical right?
You do the running vertical because NBA players do that in the game
THATS NOT HOW IT WORKS FOR THE NBA. Football is the only sport that measures vertical leap without a run up. Stop it.
No he’s not 😂 You see that line he’s starting at? Since the nba combine started measuring vertical leap it’s allowed a 15’ run up, which is that circle. You really though jordan had a 48” STANDING vert? HA
I still remember his dunk on Cavs 🔥
But that's a moving vertical, not like combine... Said from a short dude who can barely touch the rim 😂
They measure it like this in the combine.
@@bustermcthundernut combine is standing, they don't get 3 steps to run up
@@Th4t_guy_ if they did, it'd be way more applicable to the games of the NFL.
@@a-a-rondavis9438 absolutely, but it's not how they do it. To be fair, standing vertical with no step shows true explosiveness
That was way higher than I expected. Losing only 2.5 inches at 41yo compared to peak is really good.
He is a Big reason why the NJ Nets made it to the finals in 2002 and 2003. Was fun to watch his career! Dominant player for sure. HOF’r
Some Grown men never left the playground
Almost broke his knees on the landing🤣🤣
2001: 38.5-inch vertical leap
2022: 36-inch horizontal leap
Honestly, that’s super-impressive.
Would kill it in back in the day with the nets
Imagine you accidentally swipe off before the jump and have to rewatch
Wow RJ looks like he’s still in very good shape
I remember reading that athletes don't necessarily lose their strength they lose fast twitch making them slower but not less strong
AJ Hawk had a 40” vertical in the combine. Never forget✊🏼
Perk looks like he retired from NBA and now works as a cafeteria lady at a local elementary school
Richard was super athletic back in the day
Like being back in high-school attempting to grab the rim for the first time 🤣
He was thinking about his knees 😂😂
Richard and Shaq are by far the funniest NBA players of all time😂🤦♂️
Didn’t realize that NBA didn’t do a standing vertical
They do both, standing and max height.
Honestly, that is REALLY impressive.
This is like me trying to jump into the pool on a cold day
Lad's going to be puffed out all day after that one.
That took all day....💯🤦🏾
...for those who don't know ...Richard Jefferson was an elite athlete coming outta Arizona. He played with Vince Carter, Kenyon Martin and Jason Kidd in New Jersey.
They say as you get older you can still move almost as fast and jump as high it’s just the landing and stopping that gets harder 🤣
I never forget when RJ and Vince Carter each threw down some vicious dunks on Alonzo Mourning in the same game!!
I still remember the Richard's dunk for Cleveland during Christmas special in 16'. That dunk made me come out of my seat and throwing fist in the air getting hyped. He still got it. 💪
Loved the chatter 🤣 And when he blew the west laugh he started stalling a little bit great video he still got it for sure
Perk looking like he whips out his AARP card at moments notice.
I love the chemistry that Big Perk and Jefferson have lol
“This is hilarious” not a shred of laughter
Who did say that?
Proof that even RUclips shorts need a good editor.
Perk vs Jeff show were they do these type of challenges...classic show
He did more In that jump than he did with my Spurs
As an athlete it always frustrates me how “vertical” is calculated. It’s not your jump it’s how much higher you reach than your standing reach. Just by lifting your hip and one side of your body / arm you can get 4-6 inches higher in reach let alone jumping on top of it.
Well it’s cheaper than using one of those force plates, and using the height of your head like some people suggest isn’t accurate either as you can throw your arms down to move your center of mass, makes your head go higher. Vertec is fine
Perk looks like Rick Ross, but instead of opening 20 wing stops he closed them down
Perk looks like he's about to go barbecue some ribs 😂
He's gonna be icing up after that. 😅
Perk look like he waiting for his husband and friends to finish hole 18 😭
They look like normal sized people here but in reality they’re giants 😂😂
had some mad hops when he was running the fast break with Jkidd
The coach looking like Rick Ross🤣
