I jump at least an inch higher off my right leg, but I'm righty. I actually prefer left handed layups for this reason.
Left Handed Lay ups a lost art in the NBA today

i don't think it's so much that they can't use their left hands...it's probably because they are moreconfident with their right.

But not complete game, meaning both offense AND defense.

Uh...Tracy McGrady...I notice dude loves finish, taking it to his left. Hell, that dunk on kobe at the beginning of the year was left handed. Peep the 1:20mark http://www.youtube.com/v/GYHGEhA8kSM&hl=en

Kinda ot. Back in the day i had a goal in my backyard, my friend's right hand was broken in a cast. We played one on one and beat me with his left. Eversince then i have been using my left. The funny part is i can't really elevate going to my right. it's like i retrained my body.

Come on dude, just because your on the left side of the bucket doesn't mean you must finish with your left hand. What about shot blockers, you have to knowwhere they might block your shot.
Of course the ability to finish with both hands gives you a distinct advantage, but you use your left and right hand is more important.

Dunking with your left hand is nothing if your hand is big enough to palm the ball, especially if you are moving without the ball and you get a nice pass -like in the McGrady vid above.
Now if you are making a play off the dribble with your left hand and your hand isn't big enough to palm the ball, it's much harder to finish. I gotsmall hands and I have never been able to finish with my left. I can dribble well enough to drive left so when I get to the basket I usually pump fake andfinish with my right.

Rasheed Wallace could shoot 3's with both his right and left hand. I believe he was doing it on the All-Star game as well. I don't really know any other player who could do it like him on a regular basis, not even Kobe.
