Grabbing the rim, hanging on the rim, slapping the backboard and showing off while trying to dunk is what it's all about for a lot of these kids who attempt it during the game. Any intelligent person should be able to see that if it was allowed during warm-ups, it would only be worse.

Very true and they usually refer this to show boating and taunting the opponent.
