Nothing can match basketball in Reynolds for getting the blood pumping! Especially David Thompson and Monte Towe with their alley-oop plays. Check this out to bring back fond memories.

Agree...imagine if DT had been able to dunk back then and Dean Smith had had a 45 sec shot clock? I hated the 4-corners and despised Phil Ford and the way Dean played his team back then....I remember when we played the Heels and Dean went into the 4-corners with 13:23 left on the 1st half clock....The score was like 13-7 Heels at that time...talk about mad then. Shame DT let the money and the fame and fortune get to him like it did....I remember his purple Merc. 450 SL convertible he drove after signing with the Hawks- beach hat, shorts, tank top, sun glasses and carrying a b-ball.....that I saw at least a dozen times. DT was a really nice person back then.
