Greatest Dunker Ever?

Another great dunker who could do nothing else was Kenny Williams, who played with the Pacers briefly in the early 90s. (I think he was the guy who got booted out of North Carolina and played for some small school.) Incredible leaping ability, and no idea how to control it.

 

One of the best in game dunks I can recall..........Kid that went to Texas, by the name of B.J. Tyler.......6'1 Guard.

Just gets out of alcohol rehab, and if you know Penders........he'll give you a chance if you can play.....so, Texas is playing at UConn.......Tyler gets the ball on the wing on a break, goes up, and absolutely destroys Donyell Marshall.......I will see if it's on You Tube, but I doubt it.


Speaking of leaping ability, and no idea how to control it...........Michael Wilson.....formerly of U of Memphis.

53" vertical

5 3

Holds the world record for dunking on a goal of (I Think) 12'6.

6'6........

 

David Thompson before he tore up his knee was the most dynamic leaper that I ever watched.

 

A kid I covered at a D-I men's basketball program had rockets tattooed on the back of his calves he could leap so high. He once dunked over a car. Yes, you read that correctly.

Wasn't a consistent enough shooter to make the league.

 

Chuck, my man, you know I respect you, but Tracy's wasn't even close. What you maybe can't tell from the photo is that Carter actually cleared Weiss. He looked like Gerald Green going over Nate Robinson, only Weiss is about one and half feet taller and it happened in a game.

Check out the vid:

 

Oh don't get me wrong. Carter's was better. I just wanted to show a vid of Shawn Bradley getting dunked on.

 

How about some love for Shawn Kemp, perhaps the best dunking big man of his era.

 

If by dunking you mean jamming his unprotected jimmy into as many ho's as possible to father enough bastard kids to repopulate New Orleans - then yeah, he should get some love.


Oh wait ... he don't love them ho's

hawkins
jordan


then everyone else

 

I covered Kemp in the Indiana-Kentucky all-star series in high school, and he was a man among boys, before it took on its current meaning. Not that I've seen a lot of high schoolers dunk, but I can't imagine one dunking harder than Kemp did.

 

Shockey knows his hoop.

Shockey - did you at all consider David Thompson ahead of Jordan?
