Thank you! I'm surprised more people aren't interest in watching these, I was amazed at how much hops I.T has especially that second dunk...perhaps most people on CB have already seen it.

Crazy stuff - I didn't even know IT could dunk, but in these clips he can do more complex dunks with relative ease. There certainly is no doubting his athleticism.

We see guys all the time not try them in games, because is it a different matter with footsteps behind you, trying to palm the ball when sweaty, or even a defender.  Sometimes too, it is a matter of conserving energy.

I completely agree, I can't fathom how hard Thomas would have to work to fight off screens, defend 6'4 + men and elevate as much as he can on floaters and jumpers...I am sure fancy dunks would be the last thing he would be thinking about in a game.

Nice. I want to see him jumping over Anthony Davis during the game tonight.
