As my old buddy Spike Barruth says when I ask him about being fair, "Every dunk in college ball is a technical foul, but does anyone call it."

I think old Leonard is pullin' your leg a bit...maybe what he means is more often than not the monster dunk ends up with the kid hanging on the rim for a second or 2 longer than needed and for no good reason.
