With breakaway rims, you really need to throw it down hard and hang on the rim for a while before you do any damage to it.

Just going up and dunking the ball will not break the rim.
Then you have players trying to do things they cannot do. And for the record about 3 years ago a kid died from my state (playing in another state during the summer) trying to dunk and he fell on his head and died. I do not think this should be legal if for no other reason players that would never be able to dunk in a real game, try to touch, hang, and dunk on the ring when they cannot get up there in the first place.

Peace
