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.

Shawn Kemp and Chris Webber for me were 2 of the most savage big men of the 90's -arguably the most. 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. Literally the perfect BBall body and he KINDA looks like BIG DADDY KANE ;)

Chris Webber was my favorite player from when he was in Michigan up to his last game.one problem I had with him was at times he could be lazy or not into practice or playing the game some nights,at least that's how it seemed at times.the Kings had a great team and should have won at least one championship.kemp is another one I liked a lot.the man was just unbelievable when he was in the air never knowing what he was going to do to embarrass the defender but it was awesome to find out.he really deserved to win a championship but like Webber there was still one man playing and he had his team primed up.yes Jordan if it wasn't for him and his bulls,I'm sure both web and Kemp would have a ring each.damn it Mike

NBA - Thank you for the clip. I sure loved going to games at the Key and watching those guys. I miss the NBA, but you tore my pro-basketball heart out, when you let Clay steal the Supers. You know Sonics Arena group has all the money they need, they have let the city know they will fund it entirely on their own, don't use that as a reason to say no. 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. There are great fans in lots of cities, and Seattle is one of them. Expand, bring back the I-5 rivalry. Don't ball this up! Bring back the Seattle SuperSonics!

I based my hoop skills on Shawn Kemp's ferocity and Dennis Rodman's rebounding and I never saw anyone defy the court until Vince Carter came into the game. Those 3 were my top basketball Athletes and I no longer watch basketball. I almost cried watching these clips because I will never see these days again and it makes me so sad... but I LOVED my generation and there will NEVER be one like it ever again.
