Shaq literally forced the NBA to reinforce the backboards 🤣🤣🤣
That’s cuz of the hang, not the slam.🌿🌸
Darryl Dawkins the reason for breakaway rims
This was beter than the dunk contest.
only cause hanging on the rim
@@Gabriel_Moline Did you even watch the video where they had way more weight hanging on the rim than Shaq ever came close to weighing and still didn't break it? Kind puts a hole in your theory. Not that I'm saying hanging didn't have an influence, but it's not just hanging.
Props to Shaq for mentioning Shawn Kemp with no hesitation, that man brought so much joy to the NBA. Him and Vince were the greatest in game dunkers imo.
I have a feeling Chuck is going to say, “Dwight Howard”
Blake Griffin not being mentioned in these comments is absurd. Him in early LA days was a beast.
ong
Best I have seen in my life
Fr fr
@@anthonymercado8126 did you just compare baron davis to blake fucking griffin? cmon man. even westbrook was levels ahead of davis
@@anthonymercado8126 KG saying he was always looking to dunk on taller players doesn't mean he thought Davis was better than anyone, just that he made effort. With Davis being 6'3" and the avg height for an NBA player being 6'5" and making almost every dunk against someone taller.😂 No hate on Baron but he isn't in Blake's category for dunking.
Shawn Kemp, Darryl Dawkins, Dominique
I agree. I'd just add Shaq, Stromile Swift, Blake Griffin, DeAndre Jordan & Tractor Traylor
@@GrizzINK🤦🏻♂️ Can’t believe I forgot Shaq
Yup
@@GrizzINK with those added that's THE list.
@@JP-jd8wr facts
I think Russel Westbrook deserves some consideration. he rarely has an acrobatic dunk, its always an explosive power dunk
If you understand physics it's diesel and it ain't close
Yea he is definitely up there
You obviously didn't watch the video before you said that
@@traviscooper2955 I understand they're doing it from like a scientific point of view. I'm just saying I think westbrook has had some of the hardest dunks of the past 10-15 years
Yea for sure
Chuck’s hilarious.. he killed Kenny and Ernie in 1.2 seconds 😂😂
Nope
This was beter than the dunk contest.
"is your beard ever gonna come all the way down" - Chuck 😁😄😀🥰😂🤣😅
Inside the NBA on TNT with Shaq, Ernie, Kenny, Chuck is ONE STOP ENTERTAINMENT
Who remembers Orlando Woolridge if the Chicago Bulls? He was a powerful dunker.
'Compromised by my strength' 😂😂😂 Shaq would be a great marvel villain
Dominique Wilkins
This the one ☝️
Wrong
@@Hondo1738 No. He is right. You are wrong Hondo Civic.
It was the guy who made the mold for Shaquille O'neal. His name is Darryl Dawkins. They called him "Chocolate Thunder". He even used to write poems about his dunks.
Dawkins averaged like 10ppg. He was nothing like Shaq
@@TheMaddBlackMann The topic is most powerful dunkers.
@@TheMaddBlackMann bruh why we going out of our way to hate? It’s true that no one is like Shaq and focuz4899 was only talking about how Chocolate Thunder made the mold for the Diesel in terms of dunking with emphasis. Shaq even said the same thing in the video.
I have to give a lot of props to Brown for signing up. We rarely see top guys doing this competition in this day and age but here he is.👏
It's lebrons fault. Everyone wanted him to join and he would never do it. He made it okay for stars to skip out on the dunk contest
@@JJ_5289 Idk why he never did it. The NBA would have gifted him the win.
@@tfredrick01cuz he a 🛎️ end
@@JJ_5289 nobody wanted to see LeBron in a dunk contest. He's an explosive dunker, not a flashy one
@@TheInfamousThey305 Im not a lebron fan and I agree he's never been a creative dunker, but having the best player in the league in it would have generated some more excitement around the dunk contest and got other stars to do it
Vince Carter!
I'm Happy Shaq mentioned Shawn Kemp. He was so fun to watch expecially his after dunk celebrations!
Jason Richardson does not get enough respect!
Jrich, Desmond Mason (remember him?) went hard as F. But yeah Jrich was a beast.
Biggg facts. He’s the best dunker of all time imo
Shawn Kemp has to get some consideration. Prime Kemp was ridiculous. Griffin was incredible too. I watched Griffin play in high school, and the dunks he was punching on those children should’ve been illegal.
Most underrated dunker of all time " DOMINIQUE WILKINS "
Nique was NEVER underrated
'Nique is a 2-time dunk contest champion, I don't think that's underrated brother 🤦🏿♂️😂
Chocolate Thunder a legend he not underrated you just typing 💩
U basically trolling
Reminds me of an old show here in the UK called "Braniac: Science Abuse". They used to do crazy science experiments like dropping a forklift from 1000 feet.
Ouch..You make it sound like a show from the 80s
@@SARYM911 Was in the 2000s
loved that show, had a banging intro theme music
shoutout to Jon Tickle
@@tharcisse7103 That's basically few years ago in my mind..Unlike the 80s which is 20 years ago
Berkeley was a pretty ferocious dunker himself
Gorilla slam was his unstoppable move in all the those OG NBA video games
back when he still had his hops: Berkeley, the man.
Yep. Check his footage from his Philadelphia years
Berkeley 😂😂😂
Shaq broke 6 backboards and 37 cervix 😂😂😂😂😂
LMAO....wasnt that a Jeff Ross roast line to Shaq?
And a Chris Dudley
@@charleybarley914 Pete Davidson said it to him at the Justin Bieber Roast
@@Tyl3rAlexander NOW I remember! ty 😆😆🤣
I must've missed it. When was this said in the video? 😂
“We even dropped a 300 pound refrigerator… on top of the 5 dudes hanging on to the rim!”
With all the stuff they did that tells me that the one shaq broke must’ve been weak for some reason.
LOL That's where my mind went 1st LOL
@@BobbyJenkothe fact that Shaq structurally damaged 2 different hoops from the 90’s is crazy tho Shaq is without a doubt the most powerful dunker ever
Shawn Kemp 🔥🔥
Stromile Swift definitely in this conversation alongside Nique and Kemp in terms of power. I’d also include Amare Stoudamire
Top 5 Dunker all time!!!
1. Vince Carter
2.Dom.Wlikins
3.Dr.J
4.S.kemp
5. MJ
Is only Vince carter
@@hedrax_soldierofchristfire9971 in terms of power kemp/wilkins>carter
11:01 😂😂😂😂 Chuck stay roasting
It's Shawn Kemp, we not tlkin bout flair, creativity or nunna that, if it's power, it's Kemp
Frfr if power frfr
Dominique wilkins if just talking about power should be in the conversation@@LoveHard-lm1se
It’s Shaq n it’s beyond stupidity to not think it’s Shaq

.....definitely forgot some legends, please add in the comments (wouldn't consider guys like MJ, LaVine, Drexler etc. as power dunkers imho)
Darvin Ham, Johnny Newman, Bill Willoughby, Sam Lacey, Jerome Lane, Kevin Johnson (gotta get a lil' love for what he did on Akeem), Billy Ray Bates, Terry Tyler (pistons - hope i got the spelling right), Chris Morris, Gus Johnson (also broke backboards), Orlando Woolridge, ...
Shawm Kemp, Dominique Wilkins & Vince Carter
You are naming some of the best dunkers, may be Vinsanity.
But no WAY do he & Wilkins rival the dramatically stronger & heavier men.
Likely Shaq is #1, as immodest as he is lol!
He said he was 395 lbs(!) eventually with the Lakers.
Bet he could have generated even more force hanging on the rim then.
But no normal weight for height man like Carter or Wikins can generate such force, not even close.
Forget that Shaq had a 39" vertical just to GET to 12'5"...
Even when "skinny" at @300 lbs. when starting out it takes far more force to get up to the same height.
@@SilverSkitterscuttlebut you can feel the power of Vince Carter's dunk everytime he tomahawk. So he's up in the convo too
It is interesting & while subjective impressions are limited arguments, you could make an argument like this:
the hardest puncher could possibly be Demotay Wilder, who has similar proportions to the 6'6" 220lb. Carter. Great force can be generated more by speed height (in dunking) & leverage than muscle power...However Shaq set a RECORD with a 12' 5" leaping reach, & destroyed the most modern & reinforced backboards...With the height & weight+ him pulling his legs up for enhanced centripetal force... I cannot see how any 100 KG man could possibly create as much Pure Force...I think weight & strength means more here than in say punching...@@andretarrobal1964
Just think that a falling refrigerator did less damage than Shaq is ABSURD
The welder did a poor job. Clearly compromised
Desmond Mason , Jason Richardson, & Steve francis will always have my vote!
Francis wasn't powerful
Darrel Dawkins hands down was the most powerful. Shaq and Shawn kemp were second only to him. Vince Carter was in the top 5 of power dunkers.
That beard comment was savage 😭 I was surprised he hadn’t mentioned it weeks earlier
😂
“”Is your beard ever gone come in”” 😂😂rko out of nowhere vibes
Daryl Dawkins... Shawn Kemp. Shaq. Vince Carter was nasty too.
Daryl "chocolate thunder" Dawkins
“Aye man, is your beard ever gonna fully come in” -Chuckster 😂😂😂
Why are they acting like Shaq has otherworldy power, instead of just assuming the rig was likely not upto snuff & just need a powerful guy to be the tipping point of breaking it, or that it wasn't setup correctly.
The dudes not generating 2,000lbs worth of force dunking a ball.
Exactly lol. It's their body weight, gravity, and force produced by their lats... that's never adding up to anything like that
It’s the fact the guy is using a brand new rig while Shaq dunked on one that was abused for seasons
Shaq is an anomaly
Shaq
Blake griffin
Dawkins
Prime Dwight Howard
Vince
SHAWN KEMP
Dominique Wilkens
You gotta start with the one who DEFINED powerful…Chocolate Thunder,D Dawkins. Then you add Shaq,Charlie B,Nique,B Griffin….
Shaq also had a 300 pound big on his shoulder, adding weight. So 600 pounds + the jumping force of each of them. Upon landing usually about 10 times the force, but in this case probably half that, so it would be 5 x 600 = 3000 pounds.... and a tired backboard.
there's a really cool video of jordan breaking a backboard
Never...never ever
Yeah there is. College i think
@@AQBPlays MJ never broke a backboard.....ever
MJ was skinny as fk until 1989.... where's the video?
There is, watched that, lemme look for it
Yes 1985 search it awesome dunk
Darrel Dawkins is unbelievably underrated.
Everybody forgets Stromile Swift
Blake griffin, Zion Williamson, Russel Westbrook, Deandre Jordan, Dwight Howard, Dominique Wilkins
Dunno about in terms of power, but Shawn Kemp dunks are my personal favourites. There's just so much passion with each of his dunks and most of the time he lands and celebrates it where it can easily get him tech-ed out of the game (at least these days)
Shaq got the pose of putting the legs up from Ron Seikaly.
Reminds me of that sports science program that espn used to do. Great stuff
Vince Carter
Vince Carter Goat 🐐 end of conversations
Facts 💯
Chuck when from talking about calling Shaq big to cooking Kenny on his beard and it came from left field that what had me dying 😂😂😂😂...!
2:44 John C. Reilly from Step Brothers is lookin' so good nowadays. My god, he has really gotten himself in shape!
Shawn Kemp, Kenyon Martin, Westrbook, Dominique
What about VC or Dr. J ETC
Is your beard ever gonna come all the way in...... LoL
Lowkey Chuck had a crazy dunk package!!!!
Without seeing the video or reading comments first : The first person to come to my mind is Dominque Wilkins. Shaq definitely is also up there. But if i'm basing it off just making it look like they are about to rip the rim down Dominque just had that look.
No dominique wilkins mention surprised me honestly
Darryl Dawkins aka Chocolate Thunder
the 1st right out of high school kid who could physically compete with the grown ass men of the league decades before Bron.
the guy who made the NBA change their rim design long before Shaq
"yeah compromised by my strength" lol i love Shaq
Shaq probably broke a damaged structure
I agree 💯
Several times.
Russell Westbrook should’ve been mentioned, the way he used to make it sound like a gun shot when he dunked at 6’3 was other worldly🔥
Shaq
Keynon martin
Dominique wilkins
Lebron
Dwight Howard
Amare stoudimire
Kemp.
Sorry if I missed anyone.
But these are the players whose dunks were powerful.
Personally, I don't think of Shaq as a power dunker. He was a lot heavier than most players that have played, and just hung on the rim with all his weight.
What Shawn Kemp, Vince Carter, and Tracy McGrady, did in the 90s was probably the best period of game time Dunks in the history of the NBA. It was beautiful to watch!🎉
Centrifigul force! Dr. Shaq says it with pride and everyone goes whoa!! Big Word!
Vinsanity ofc.
LeBron, Westbrook, Dominique, Dwight, Shaq, Wilkins, Kemp, Giannis
Wilt was probably stronger, but in terms of drama, it's hands down Shaq.
Clearly the steal frame of the basketball frame broke because it already had a issue or was not set up properly.
Shaq, Blake, LeBron, Kemp, Wilt, Dwight, I'm sure I'm forgetting some but those ones come to mind immediately.
its shaq and Shawn Kemp - vince carter is the most shocking Eric Gordon is the smoothest then Jordan the most iconic
One of my favorite dunk contest is when Spud Webb won 😊
Darvin Ham, MJ, Kevin Love and Jerome Lane have awesome backboard shattering dunks
🤣🤣🤣 uh-oh Kenny's beard is now the topic of roasting.
Vence Carter#1
The problem with this experiment is it's hard to recreate the exact same setup that Shaq broke...might have not been setup properly or had structural weaknesses that compromised it's strength...not taking anything away from the big Diesel but...
Power dunking? The names that immediately come to mind are Dominique, Shawn Kemp, and Shaq.
The nerd in me ABSOLUTELY LOVED "THE LAB" THINKPIECE!
I would have to go with Larry Johnson #2 in his prime though
I love the way Chuck is just trying to get under Shaq's skin all through the video.
3.russell westbrook
2.daryle Dawkins
1.shaquile O'Neal
Don't judge this is my opinion.
Lol
What about Giannis?
I was old enough to see Vince Carter do some insane dunks. Shaq, Blake, Vince, Gordon, Ewing, Dominique are all monsters I know I'm missing a few more.
No tf u weren’t 😭😭😭
Gotta go with Dominique that man dunked with such intensity and energy, Vince Carter carries the same energy as well.
Happy Shaq mentioned my boyThe Reignman Shawn Kemp !!!
Vince Carter… end of discussion.
The man jumped so high he didn’t realize there was a body under him..
Vince Carter end of story
Can’t believe they didn’t say the human highlight reel Dominque Wilkins
Dominique and Kemp are the top two that come to mind but all these youngens wouldn’t know!
Greatest dunk ever Vince Carter over a 7footer in the Olympics!!!
“Unlike him, he’s been dunk on a million times” 😂😂😂
By position my favorite power dunkers
PG: Westbrook
SG: Jordan, Vince Carter
SF: LeBron James, Wilkins
PF: Barkley, Giannis
C: Shaq, Dwight Howard
“Centrifical force” lmaoooo
"is your beard ever gonna come all the way in" 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
Chris morris od the nets shattered the backboard very similar time to shaq pulling it down. Think that was the last time the glass broke.
I want to see anyone block the Diesel’s dunk. Powerful!
Honorable mention…. Josh Smith, Stromile Swift, Gerald Green
Obviously, the support was compromised, and they said that back then.
Its funny how shaq and charles just stare at each other like shaqs just waiting for barkley to stir him up 😂
Stomile swift may not have been great in the nba but definitely had the most verocious dunks
Shaq did not but 3000 pounds of force on a basketball hoop 😂, the hoop was definitely compromised lmao
Oh you just don’t believe in anything according to your responses (only god) so they compromised the rim? Hmmm any other sources for that?
