:10—Since the NBA All-Star game came and went and the Slam Dunk Contest regained national respect again, here for maybe the last time is the ultimate almost final Pittsburgh City League/Connie Hawkins Summer Basketball League quite possibly greatest Slam Dunk List of all time: 1.  “Flyin” Myron Brown 2.   Nathan “Sonny” Lewis 3.   Morrie “Skylab” Cox 4.   Steve Snyder 5. Will Herndon 6.   John Farley 7.  Eugene McCay. 8. Cleveland “Shane” Bibbens 9. Dougie Johnson 10. Darrin “Big Dex” Poindexter
If anyone has a problem with this list, I’m easy to find. Call me at 412-628-4856.
:09—Speaking of All-Stars…and I was, if you would just pay attention.  While you’re lovin’ these pretenders of today’s game, just remember this, “The Big O” Oscar Robertson averaged a triple double for a career, Nate “Tiny” Archibald led the NBA in scoring and assists for a season – Kareem averaged 30 points a game at age 37 for the playoffs (Tim Duncan averaged 15 points) Connie Hawkins was the MVP in the ABL, ABA, played for years with the Globetrotters and was a four time NBA All-Star while still being called one of the greatest New York legends of all time and the blue print for Dr. J. and Michael Jordan.
