      Kemp is probably the most underrated player ever. Led the Sonics to the finals in 96 and nearly stole the finals MVP off Jordan. Best record for the league with the Sonics. Dominating rebounds, blocks and points always in the top 10. Kemp and the Sonics beat all the best teams in Western conference. Olajuwon and the Rockets, Malone and the Jazz, Barkley and the Suns, Robinson and the Spurs. In my view he should be ranked much higher than Malone in the power forward rankings.

      Not really. He was a big time player in Seattle and Cleveland. After his stints with Seattle and Cleveland, his performance and numbers declined rapidly. From what I remember, Cleveland made him their franchise player and gave him a $100M contract. He gained a ton of weight that he couldn't shed off. He also lost his passion and discipline for the sport. Became a role player and a journeyman.

The facts that they both could handle the ball like a guard in the open court, and both be legit 6'10"-plus, was something the league had NEVER seen yet. The flair and power they both brought was tremendous. Kemp is seriously underrated. LOVE KEMP's Ferocity, 8:51 #9 and #7 are amazing. The way that big man can run and contort his body was so special.

You know, Seahawks Russell Wilson has partnered up as an investor, couldn't have a better ambassador,, and all around great guy for the league.

    Never seen another dunker like this guy as far as the showmanship mid air and post dunk. Pure entertainment. Nowadays everyone just screams like something heavy fell on their foot.

    Vince is the dunking GOAT. But I’ve never seen a player attack the rim as violently and ferociously as Shawn Kemp.

    i loved watching Shawn Kemp play back in the day, his intent was to embarrass you and take your heart with every dunk.

    Shawn Kemp was a SAVAGE dunker. Between him and Vinsanity, they are imo, the 2 best dunkers ever.

    They should have added the Kemp over Rodman reverse dunk (Game 4, 96 Finals) where he spins baseline.

      Man I popped so loud watching that finals game in a truck stop in Wheeling, WV
      I was ecstatic watching him teabag Rodman on that reverse baseline.
