Tony has always been a great dunker…as well as defender….as well as all-around player.
If he was on a team that didn’t feature the “Big 3″ – then you would have known that.

I was aware; I watched him do it at Gallihger-Iba Arena for 2 years. And he would get nasty with it when the game was on the line. He’d go up for a ridiculous dunk when it was completely unecessary late in close games and you’d be like, “NO TONY N…YA!!!!”
I love watching tony play.

Have you never watched Sportscenter during the NBA season before? Tony has been on dozens of times in his career for his dunks.
