Half true, though I dont know the exact specs sampling at the highest speed your turntable allows and then pitching it back down does decrease the sample rate. Supposedly different samplers gave this effect a different character.
Think of it like this, if I'm sampling at 48htz with the record at double its normal speed and slowed it back down in the sampler the sample rate would in effect be at 24htz. Hooray.
