Those were the days. You go from Stockton, Malone and the Jazz in Round 1, to Olajuwon and the Rockets in Round 2, on to Barkley and the Suns in Round 3 and the winner plays Jordan and the Bulls in the Finals. It just isn't like that anymore.

shawn kemp in seatle was a beast.

the reign man is a top 10 power forward to ever play this game.Krazy video game dunks in every game,handles on the ball,free throws,jumpshots,blocks and boards.

a 6'10 pf,and dunking like vince and kobe.he deserves to be in the hall of fame.

.none of todays power forwards will give us highlights like the reign man did

@kinglouis81 blake griffin would be a close comparison, but shawn kemp was THE man.

Damn, I remember that year when they took on Houston in the playoffs. The Rockets came to town to play and they had to get to a place with a basketball court and so the closes place with one was our high school. I still remember me and my brother were out in P.E. class playing tennis outside and a bus stopped by and the Rockets players came out so stopped and watched.
