Love Sam's dunks but I've seen MJ andDominique. I'd give up the dunks for 15ppg 45% shooting and 6 rebounds a game..then I would say WOW!!!!

i feel a thread title change is necessary...."Slam Thompson!"

 

[mendensa]

can we get a thread going of just Thompson dunks? Last night's baseline drive and jam was sick and the fast break lob, behind the head throw down against Neb (???) was awesome. Dude can levitate forever. He reminds me of the kid that once played for UC about 10-15 years ago, could hang in the air forever. His nickname was "the elevator".

Any help with the name???

Melvin "The Elevator" Levitt - thought they also called him the Levittator?

Youtube him - some of his dunks were literally mind boggling.

Sammy T is a Rim Rattler!! NBA should invite him to the Dunk Contest :) Lets go beat Tsun

Melvin Levett..... It's coming back to me. Back when Huggie Bear and his thugs were runnin' wild down in Cincy. Amazing ups. I do remember him being referred to as the "levitattor".

id also like to see a slam thompson highlight reel at the end of the year...(i can stream all the game replays but i dont know any programs to capture them...)


the dunks at duke...they were sick....the tv network never showed the replays of either of them...they were too busy playing mason plumlevis' dunks about 10 times over...

this kid is what the VCA needs...someone to bring the house down...thompson is one of the best

must be the shoes

Sam Thompson's existence is like a big, old middle finger to gravity.

Kid is just so entertaining when he gets vertical.

 

[Bestbuck36]

He just has to turn the corner on offense and he'll be a terror.

 

[Merih]

46" vertical? My goodness...

On that one, I thought that Thompson was going to lob one for Lenzelle so he could throw it down
