    Best part of the Kemp top 10 dunk video is after the #1 dunk he points at his victim without penalty.

    Today, pointing would have been a technical. lame.

    Weaknesses: Morris lacks length, which could be problematic on both sides of the ball within ten feet of the rim (only averaged .6 blocks per game) ... plays mostly under the rim, doesn't possess the explosiveness you'd hope for from a forward with his athleticism ...

    I don't know if "explosiveness" is teachable... If it is Kemp maybe a fit.

    He can dunk easily off two feet under the basket... Go 15 seconds in..

    He's got more explosion than Martin and is 2 inches taller and much stronger.. He's an athlete..

    I get the Kemp jokes but I tell you what, this guy was a BEAST in his heyday. He was the only guy that I ever saw outplay Olajuwon in a playoff series. He was the #1 reason for the Barkley trade.
