@Mriliketofu because of Darrel Dawkins, and then Shaq. Shaq didn't break the basket, he broke the all thing. Anyway Shaq's one was way more powerfull.
i don't know if you guys know but the ability to travel constantly without being seen is quite remarkable and it isn't his fault the referees are to blind to see him travel... he uses it to his advantage idiots
@cauldrone20 actually impossible, sport science tested it, and it wasnt the rim nor the glass that break, but the arm-pit :) look it up on youtube, its pretty cool =D
not the most powerful ever. Ever seen shaq break the entire backboard and bring down the rim or breaking the hoop. He did the most powerful dunk 3 times
hands down shaq has the most powerful dunks ever in the NBA just youtube it, if your think differently but by far D howard is holding down the most powerful dunker in the NBA today
True that bro, but Shaq was kind of bad cuz his percentage for free throws or any shots were kind of bad, but overall, Shaq's pretty good cuz he was in cavs and then celtics. Celtics are pretty good and they accept him? then I guess Shaq's good after all. (btw this wasn't a like a bad thing about him if people think that this comment is stupid)
Darryl Dawkins has the most powerful dunk imo. And it's not because the rims were breakable back then. His power dunks were a perfect combo of arm and upper body strength and weight.
its no longer possible to break the rim because the rim is attached to the metal support in the back, not to the glass. If shaq or howard played back in the day every dunk would break the backboard
I BROKE A RIM ONCE (6´1, 190lbs)...you know why? cause it was a wooden backboard!
The structures back then broke from much weaker and lighter guys then Shaq, trying to break todays backboards or ripping the rim down would require SEVERAL Shaqs!
the new rings and backboards these days can even have the metal supporting the ring to the backbaord bend permenantly and not crack or break anything. they've experimented and dropped a piano on the new rings and almost nothing has happened to it
@magneto44 Ever been dunked on by a 7ft guy? it's pretty fucking intimidating. I play basketball and I got dunked on by Isaac Fotu, a guy that plays for New Zealand and he's only 17. He's 6'8 and it scared the shit out of me. BTW Dwight is 6'10
the hardest dunker in the history of the nba is no doubt lebron james. theres a difference between hanging on the rim and dunking hard. shaq dunks hard but he broke the rim because he hung on that shit and hes hella heavy
I don't thing that is the most powerful dunk..=/ I think that Shaquille's O'neal break the BASKET dunk is the most powerful dunk ever...That my opinion...
Darryl Dawkins was the original godfather of the power dunk. he broke 2 backboards, one on accident and the other on purpose. & after the 2nd time the NBA said: "don't do it again or else". He quit breaking backboards
@xrandymarsh yes, it just was my shaq day ! couldn't let this shit stand out, Shaq was scary ! it will be a long time for a POWERFUL player like that to compete again, I guess its every 20 years this phenoms appear , first chamberlain then Shaq ....
@maurixjames23 It's also because Dwight's dunks aren't as powerful. If you see the two standing next to each other, Shaq makes Dwight look like a point guard.
@zbjordan23 after shaq broke a few rims back in the day, the nba reinforced the rims. if this was back in '92 , truss me the whole damn thing woulda come down
I think the most powerful dunk ever was Shaq one or Dawkins one ; players used to breack rim... I especially love Shaq on Robinson in 96 all star game
