Originally NBA Jam dev wasn't a fan of over-the-top dunks at first

Coming from John Carlton, former Midway dev...

I was down on the monster dunks, I have to admit. I loved the NBA for what it was; I didn’t want to turn this into a clown show. . . . But within 24 hours I was converted. “O.K., let’s go crazy here!”

I'm glad Mr. Carlton eventually came around on the idea, as that's one of the best elements of the game! That mechanic, along with the announcer, is what made the series live on for so long. Even new games like NBA Playgrounds are still putting those insane dunks to good use!
