Hang Time

What makes NBA games exiting? For me I have to say it’s, mostly the high flying dunks, ankle breaking cross-over’s, long range 3 pointers and lastly the “and one” moves.
Thankfully, if I blink and miss some of the action, the instant slow motion reply will show every second of action frame by frame.
Where do you think the logo for Air Jordan came from? Yeah, it was a picture from a slow motion replay.
Check this video of ridiculous Hang Time


SCAMPER is a creative tool/ acronym I learned in my first semester at Emerson College. It stands for:
S-substitution, C-combine, A-adapt, M-modify, P-put to another use- E-eliminate, R-reverse
I find the video funny because it dehumanizes the “almighty” dunk and shows the reverse effects of a televises instant replay  by modifying the time length of a dunk, puts that time to multiple uses such as reading and answering a phone call.
I thought the video was really well planned out and filmed, I thought it was funny.
