@Jim26D Haha..Yeah, that video game Lakers vs Celtics. Awesome game. I hadn't thought of that game in awhile. The Chambers dunk was unstoppable once it got started.
The 1987 All-Star Game really catapulted Tom Chambers. He wasn't even supposed to play, replaced injured Ralph Sampson, won the MVP, and then became a dunking machine out of nowhere. After that happened he became a regular at the all-star game and had huge numbers in Phoenix. Too bad by the time they finally made the Finals he had gone past his peak. Almost went back to the Finals the next year with the Jazz. Still the best dunk of all time without the hook breaking? I think so.
When Phoenix Suns was a real team.Mark West,Ceballos,Dan Majerle.
today we are the Phoenix Sucks!!There is only 1 way to go back to the finlas.Call Paul Westphal,Barkley,Ainge and Majerle and have then on that white Jersey again
You would expect someone like him to shoot a stepback three, set a solid pick or do an awesome pass. But you'll never expect him to dunk as if he's going up an escalator.
anyone heard of BoingVert??? Suppose to be the best jump program ever coming out... T-Dub, Golden child are going to Rucker july 6th... going to be crazy!!!!!!!!!!
@jrzy49 Yeah... but that just means that his KNEE was at Mark Jackson SHOULDER's height! Holy shit! Since Jackson is 6ft3 and Chambers is 6ft10 that means he jumped something like... i'm gonna let someone good at math answer that :P
A long time ago, that had been the highest I'd ever seen a dude get during a dunk (even though he had some help from Mark Jackson). But nowadays, LeBron and a handful of others can get this high regularly.
Its one thing to dunk in a contest with no one around playing D. Its another to dunk on someone in the NBA, in the heat of the game, and former NBA all-stars still talking about it YEARS later-Now thats a MFKN DUNK!!!
That has to be a record for highest jump by a white man. We dream about jumping half that. Wouldn't be surprised to hear that he put flubber in his shoes because that's against the laws of physics.
Tom Chambers could jump pretty good anyways and i think mark helped him stay up longer more then higher you can see how he kinda glided cause normally he would of came down a little more before slaming it when dunking from that spot
@LambadLambadLambda His knee reached Jackson's shoulder in the take off phase. Hitting Jackson in his take off, by simple rules of physics, actually slowed him down; there was no leverage at all. Had he not come in contact with Jackson in take off, he would have gotten so high that this clip would look fake. Even WITH contact, there is a point in this clip where Chambers is looking down INTO the rim and has to shorten his reach so that he doesn't get stuck in the hoop.
If he was black, he would have put flair on it.... >_>
All he did was hold it above his head and then put it through, if he'd have actually cocked it back, be it one hand or two, who have been way more epic than it actually is.
@ChocolateApocalypse1 my man! He put his knees in Mark Jackson's throat! His ELBOWS were over the rim baby. Not elbow, elbows. Sometimes just being nasty with a straight dunk is enough. You trying to kill the man dude! ;)
@ChocolateApocalypse1 if he was black he wouldn't have got as high. in case you didn't know a swede was the world's highest jumper until 92. that's right, a white man.
another thing, I could list off a ton of white dudes who never make it to the nba and they have higher verticals in high school and college than many nba blacks. joe alexander could have fucking housed anyone in the 2011 s.d.c.
@TheNewMusicNetwork And you think the highest black jumpers do track and field or make it to the NBA? Look up team flight brothers. And while youre at it, look up Mike Conley's free throw dunk and compare to James "Flight" White's free throw dunk. JW had more hang time than the former track and field triple jump champ. Btw, I went to high school with a white guy who won back to back state titles in the HJ, he had hops, but he wasnt the highest jumper at school. Technique goes a long way.
@TheOUTLAW1982 It's the best because he dunked with TWO HANDS over Jackson from about three feet inside the free throw line with PLENTY of room to spare. I've never seen anything like that before or since.
you talk about a guy who can throw it down....hand down man down!! Mamma goes that man, time and time again making plays and slappin gays... - Mark Jackson quote
Best dunk ever? Don't forget - half of Dr. J's career, most of Connie Hawkins' career and some other spectacular dunkers are not on video. Dr. J used to do some crazy shit during N.Y. Net practices.
Best dunk ever. But it was a white guy, not Vince Carter or MJ, so it doesn't get shown or talked about as much as some of their less spectacular dunks.
@rainwave23 Sure...sure. One of the all-time best dunks and he looks lame? Your possibly the only person I have ever heard say that about THAT dunk...ever.
@rainwave23 Unathletic and lame? What about practically jumping over a guy in an NBA game (not dunk contest-- a GAME) and being so hight up he was looking down at the rim? That was pretty much the most athletic and freaking awesome thing a basketball player can possibly do.
jackson helped him get even higher, but must be nice to look down into the rim. But come on this was nice but hell no is it the most devastating dunk by far. Have u seen jordan, pippen, lebron, kobe, vince carter or anyone else dunk before??
