If dunking is so dangerous, why is it allowed during games? And I've seen all these injuries (and more) which were not the result of attempted dunks. Dunking is a part of the game, and players should be allowed to practice that part of the game during warm-ups. That said, I understand that dunking wears the rim down and you don't want your rim failing 2 minutes before game time.
College players, who don't get hurt trying to dunk, aren't allowed to dunk during pregame to protect the rims.
One more bit of sarcasm: I love this chat board.
