The players played with absolute passion, dedication and desire! Their personalities were authentic! They never concentrated nor based their lives on being billionaires, or music video stars, nor movie stars! There was no "unsocial media" for them to be distracted into playing/living for: "likes", "hastags", or "follows"! Thank you so much for this video upload!

Kevin Garnett gets the credit, but Kemp was the prequel.

I don't know. For those of us who saw him, we are still here tooting his horn 25 years later. He was quiet and didn't want attention off the court, that is why people tend to forget him, until they see his highlights lol.

@@ktapreswreckd921v9 Yup, as you remember, Dunking against defenses in the early 90s was a whole lot harder. It's a spread out game today with more good shooters than good defenders on the floor, back then there were more good defenders than good shooters on the floor. The Knicks and Pistons made it a rougher league in that era too. Even Seattle had a great D with Payton, McMillan, Askew, Cage and of course, Kemp. Few guys in those days got minutes if they could only hit 3s, now it's the in thing. Kemp would dunk 15 times a game today lol.

We're seeing a lot of dunks, but Kemp was a well rounded player, with lots of skills. Even when he was out of shape, he could score 15 a game in his sleep.

Maybe the best offensive rebounder of his era too. Dude was sudden!

Kemp had one of those rare characteristics and attitude towards the game. It was never personal and never vain simply an artist painting his best on the canvas

Agree, other than his quick celebrations, never said a word. Saw him play the Knicks at the garden a few times. Oak and Mase would do their rough stuff,he paid it no mind, let his game do his talking, you would see defenders talking to themselves after a while lol.
