should be one of the greatest dunks in the history of the nba. a one one one move with a one foot take off reverse dunk over one of the best defensive players ever. It is unbelievable that I have not seen this dunk before and I have been a die hard nba fan for over 40 years.
Starks was athletic in his youth and prime. 6'4 can fly high just like Dwyane Wade 90s Version Can posterize both Olajuwon and Michael Jordan. Can hit 3s as well Such a shame that Knicks lost against Rockets back in 1994.
Even WITH the footage, some argued, he didn't dunk on Jordan. If you were at the rim and up in the air, attempting to defend the basket....you got dunked on. Lol.
Damm the only poster Dunk I knew of John Starks Was On My Favorite 90's Team Michael Jordan And The Bulls i didnt Know He Dunked On Hakeem Olajuwon, A.C. Green, Doug West & Alonzo Mourning That's Crazy
I was a bulls fan but I loved NY team so much. Everytime I see people nowaday just cruising to the hoop not being checked nor realy hit, makes me think of this team. I would love to see players that like to penetrate today do it against the NY defense, see if they would actualy try it more than once after running into Mason, Oakley, Mcdaniels or Ewing. Would love to see what would happen to Harden after trying to steal fouls like he does today. Not hating on Harden he is good enough to walk that thin line, but I think he would have to readjust after a few plays because I see no chance of him not getting laid out
Do a posterization series.....bet most of the highlights would b from the 80's........also do top 5 from Tom Chambers, Larry Johnson, Rex Chapman.......to name a few....Thnx and keep up the great work!!!!
I was a huge knicks fan until pat left. I was watching that rockets game when he banged on keem. Lotta ups and downs in them days. The spreewell and Alan Houston era was our last hoorah 🤦🏽♂️🤷🏽♂️💯
Haha that lefty on Jordan hurts the mj-groupies so much it's barely even legal!! They're trynna prove (to themselves) that the dunk wasn't on mj actually, while there is a poster of jordan slapping Starks's wrist while he dips the donut. It's a trauma for them. Starks has dunked on and blocked Jordan many times (there is a spectacular block in that very same game with 'The Dunk' as well), while Jordan has never blocked or dunked on Starks...
So i have to ask...is john starks left handed, right handed or ambidextrous? Im pretty sure he dunked on hakeen and jordan with his left, but others with his right. If thats the case, hes more underrated as a point dunker than i originally thought.
He's right handed, but he said that a lot of times the way he got off the ground made it easier to dunk with his left, so he probably propelled with his right foot.
