When he came out of college, I remember saying, hmmm.. he'll be pretty good.. Man was that an understatement by me... lol!

He was criminally underrated. Watch some college clips of him on RU-vid. Man against boys.

Don’t feel bad…not even his old teammates ate UNC and coach Dean Smith himself didn’t think he was going to dominate like he did.

that reverse cradle dunk gotta be one of the most underated dunks ever!

@mkhan8527 Год назад

I think its MJs best dunk ever.That one handed reverse cradle very last dunk. He should've received 50. He started from one side went way past the rim towards other side and did both rock the cradle and reverse. cuffed the ball and never touched it from his other hand. That is just unimitable dunk.

@d-blockceltics3696 Год назад

A few dunks on here are still unique even today (last dunk..). It's more about aesthetics when it comes to MJ's dunks. The degree of difficulty doesn't lie in the ability to go between the legs, behind the back, or 360, etc... like today's dunks. It lies more in the ability to move/place his legs and arms in an aesthetically pleasing way while smoothly flying through the air. Sounds simple but actually hard to do

@nappyheadboi48 2 года назад

Rookie mike had so much swag bro!!🥶

@Wonder2win 3 года назад

I like that he actually approaches his dunks dribbling without traveling like he's in a game. Can you imagine if actually did that last one or the free throw line dunk in-game?

@creoleDJ 10 месяцев назад

He said long ago that he likes to dribble because it makes it feel more natural with the rhythm of the game..

@chadbailey7038 Год назад

Same!🔥

@creoleDJ Год назад

Jordan’s 1st dunk is what made him so unique: He could contort his body in a way that makes the dunks he do look more difficult. Darrell Griffith & Terrance Stansbury did almost the exact same dunks earlier but as good as they were, they didn’t have the pizazz like MJ’s

@TheHaagendazs0 11 месяцев назад

That’s soo true.

@aaronflowers8881 10 месяцев назад

I agree

@tobznoobs 3 года назад

to anyone who said MJ has a foot in the ft line, well here is one where he took off before the line. his famous winning dunk in 88, sure his foot was on the line but he cocked it back, but this one, which he lost to nique, its behind the line but more of a statue of liberty.

@HailKingCeezer 3 года назад

He wasn't even full speed either. He had a hesitant slow down as he moved up. Thats crazy

@jettmorris6985 28 дней назад

@@HailKingCeezernope, that hesitation is to get his footing right so when he jumps it’s at the right place…. Anyone will do that when needing a lot of speed but has to jump at an exact spot while dribbling too.
