Agreed.
At summer tournaments there's the dunk contests. You eliminate players round by round. This summer a 14 year kid stayed in for a few rounds because the MC kept saying "C'mon he's 14!" Meanwhile he's doing straight dunks, and he's eliminating guys jumping OVER people. There's always been this subjective standard- little guys get some slack compared to taller guys. Considering no WNBA players has dunked live, if she even just straight dunked, its an accomplishment, but still.
