        That one too and prolly a couple other Tekele dunks...but having just said that and on second thought...Daishon's might be the second best after Tekels posterizing in Normal. Yeah I'm going with 1A and 1B. Tekele in Normal and Daishon's in Norman (whoops meant OKC).

          No. that tekele dunk on ISUr gave that guy nightmares. That has to be the nastiest dunk in school history and one of the top 50 in NCAA history. It made the SC top plays of the year, and actually was the last highlight shown. Tekele even said it shocked him and was the highest he had ever jumped. That's why he did that little jump turn. He stunned himself.

          And the Drake dunk. Oh my god. That is the most underrated dunk of his career, only because cox has a terrible angle on the replay.

          There was another dunk where his head was behind the board before he ducked back in front for the slam.

          DS was awesome but was nowhere close to TC on top dunks. He has potential but hasn't had one yet.

          1. TC on ISUr.
          2. TC on Drake
          3. DS on OU
          4. CE on UK

            Remember Tekele's windmill dunk against UNI? Outstanding!

              Tekele also had that inbounds pass dunk against ISUR (at home) when he soared high in the air, slamming it with two hands. That time it appeared that his elbows may be at rim level.

                It was a notch below but Cle's fastbreak dunk on Louisville was great. It was quite a leap, and it was the big sign to Louisville that this was no cute mid-major team that was simply happy to be at the Final Four.

                  That was my favorite Tekele dunk, over the one at the Jailbirds arena and even that ridiculous dunk against Drake. On the inbounds pass dunk I swear I saw a cape on the man.

                    Daishon's dunk is certainly in the lofty category of Tekele and Cle.

                      What really helps our Shocks is from game to game, who will be our catalysts? Mr. Smith admits he didn't have a good first half but then neither did the Shocks. The dunk was one to remember and it was so strategic in terms of timing when the Sooners were still coming at us hard, After all, they got 11 more throws than us but our D. the 2nd half was much better led by Smith's steals and huge 3-pointer late. Smith also easily led our team with assists with 6 of our 16. Nice.

                      There were other factors too in this win which points to why the Shocks are so tough, even on the road. Our bigs were led by Willis and Shaq. For them, Lattin on had 3 points, all throws, Burford had 4 points, and Doolittle had 8 points off the bench. Willis just keeps improving and had 12 pts and 7 rebounds. Shaq wanted to show folks in his old stomping grounds that he can play. 7 points, 6 rb, 2 assists and 5 of our 7 blocks. Not a bad day at his old home away from home and the Shocker fans made it loud like home.

                      Brown needs some love too. How about this. 6-6 on throws? Kewl!!!!!!!! 17 points, 2 blocks, 4 rebounds. Again, our bench has been so huge for us much of this Season
                      Shocker basketball will forever be my favorite team in all of sports.

                          Whether or not it was as good as a dunk from Tekele is one topic, but to me, the bottom line is we have a guy for the next two years who can apparently attempt to fill those shoes.

                                I was thinking the same thing.
