Not to take anything away from these kids because I'm sure they're very talented players whether they can dunk or not, but that rim doesn't look ten feet. Looks like they're teaching the fundamentals of getting to the rim strong, but doing it on an adjustable backboard system. Could be an optical illusion, but something doesn't look quite right as you see them approaching in slo-mo.
