I love the fact that they counted both the dunks of Blake Griffin on Pau Gasol from the same game. It was like Blake had a vendetta against him or something because twice in one game is wild
That Kemp dunk and the Pippen over Ewing dunk were 2 of my favorite NBA dunks of all time. But the Vince Carter "Dunk of Death" in the 2000 Olympics is the sickest dunk in the history of mankind.
I know that Alonzo was in the receiving end of several of these. But give the dude credit, he never ran away from a dunk. He always went up attempting to block it.
@@GORILLA_PIMP True. He’s also remembered as being one of the Heat’s greatest players, a two time defensive player of the year and one of the all time great defenders. Oh, and also being a champion and instilling a culture into Miami that has since been maintained.
scottie pippen's dunk is very sensational and the subsequent events are hilarious, pippen dunks in Ewing's face, Ewing falls, pippen steps over him, ewing tries to push pippen and pick a fight, pippen turns away and immediately starts to talk trash to Spike lee in the stands. Beautiful
6:25 What they did to Terry was horrible. They stole the guy’s lunch money, bullied him, embarrassed him in front of the school n then got the guy suspended. Terry just felt so alone, get the guy to the counselor office.
There are dunks that are disrespectful by nature and there are dunks that really had ill will directed towards the person. That scottie on Ewing dunk is nothing but hatred 🤣
Bro after seeing it one more time I think it's my favorite in-game dunk .. the way he pointed the guy in the public too hilarious.. that was real men on the court back then
Shaq’s on Chris Dudley is truly the most disrespectful. He dunked on him, thrusted him, and then shoved him to the ground. Pippen’s is also an acceptable answer
@@mauricewilliams4001 ,🤣,I know, the only other dunk I thought was just as disrespectful was Shawn Kemps"aka the reign man"dunk on Chris Gatling,I think he dunked on Gatling twice in that playoff game, I believe,but Chris Gatling in my opinion saw that coming,he had too give shawn his props,on the other hand, Chris Dudley had no idea that was going to happen, Shaq literally King Kong sh*tted on Dudley,it ain't no way anybody can tell me that even the refs at the end of the game couldn't stop crying/laughing there azz off,they had to give shaq that 15 yards roughing the passer call/personal foul, shaq probably had to pay a fine/funeral for Dudley,I know that's a football penalty😭🤣
This brings up some memories. Firstly, damn Shaq is so scary up in the air. Secondly Macgrady was clearing the rim so easy. And lastly Baron Davis should have won the MVP. He was the one guy Allen Iverson said he couldn't beat in a game 1v1.
The very first dunk in this video. Shawn Kemp's savage dunk... That will always be one of my ALL TIME favourites.. also his little celebration/taunt pointing at the guy on the ground is just golden IMO.

Kemp pointed at him like that because ole dude told Kemp the last time they played against each other that he'd never dunk on him. Well, he was wrong, but at least he had a little bit of confidence, right? 🤷🏽♂️
Alonzo Mourning challenged EVERY shot at the rim and sometimes thats just how it goes. Just never forget though that 'Zo won way more of those challenges than he lost.
Yep. Every great defender will get dunked on. Every great pitcher gives up home runs. How they respond to those moments is what separates them from the rest.
Head band New Jersey Vince banging on him with that cock back tomohawk was one of the most violent things I’ve ever seen….let alone dunks…always rated that dunk higher than the Olympics Dunk
@@olubode ya know I've heard that too bro, but I don't think it's exactly true. I did some digging on that and apparently Weiss had signed with a Euro-league for much more $$ than NY was offering him. Which makes sense, because what team is going to not sign someone because they got dunked on? That would be dumb from a management perspective lol. Regardless, it made Weis famous for all the wrong reasons haha. And yes, I agree that it was a better decision than going to the poorly-managed Knicks.
@@Vscounter it's not just that. It's also how they came up. In those days, AAU wasn't as big so they players weren't so chummy by the time they got to The League. It's not so easy to develop rivalry if you're BFFs and what not.
I knew the 97 dunk of MJ on Mutumbo was going to win that year. I remember watching it during the 96-97 playoffs. Mutumbo was talking about how Jordan never dunked on him and then it happened and Jordan did Mutumbo's signature finger wave back at him. He got whistled for a technical foul after waving his finger at him, but MJ knew he would and it was worth it. It was epic Jordan.
@@ersellote yeah, same with the Edwards' one or with all the travels each and every night. How're you supposed to defend a guy that jumping towards you with his elbow against your face?
7:22 the nets bench reactions to the larry nance dunk are HILARIOUS 😂😂. Caris levert knew something nasty was about to happen he just sat back straight and clutched at his knee, trevor booker jolted with excitement, randy foye had to be held down by Dinwiddie to stop from jumping up and celebrating. Scola also went from hunching forward to sitting all the way back in amazement lool. I love how some plays completely make you unaware of what side you're on, if its a great play its a great play🤷🏾♂️😂😂
@@mastermerion Not even close. Kobe was literally about to two-hand slam on the right side of the basket and changed his mind in mid-air and reversed it with the finish on the left side. Way more complicated than Julius's lay up.
My 2 favorites were right at the beginning. The lister blister delivered by Shawn Kemp and Pippen blowing up Ewing, then telling spike to "sit yo ass down" it's like Pippen got a 2 for 1 with that.
Not a Bulls fan but it's hard to beat Scottie dunking on Ewing, giving the head slap to Ewing, then trash talking Spike. Might be the best dunk sequence ever.
If you weren't around for Mourning you don't understand... he was terrifying. Total beast mode. But the Carter on Mourning dunk was special. He had retired earlier due to kidney issues. Nets were the first team to sign him after. It...didn't work out. He was kind of a dick. He ended up going back to Miami after and balling pretty hard. Nets fans were upset with him. Then this happened lol. But they ended up winning a championship and we didn't so...
@@ahmadmahmood6986 The Dikembe Mutombo posterizer? I think technical fouls etc went overboard after Malice in the Palace. When Duncan got ejected for laughing with two techs? All down hill from there. But like the Shawn Kemp posterizer and the taunt? He would have the tech when he is coming down in to the crouch.
Watching a lot of these dunks reminds me. When Russ was absolutely feeling it that man slammed that ball so hard you felt like he was gonna rip the rim off
Hah I just commented the same thing and then scrolled down and saw this comment... I completely agree...Steve Francis wins in this video and vice Carter jumped over a guy in the Olympics...BEST DRUNK EVER
Really glad you included that Terrence Ross dunk. So underrated, mostly I think because it happens so quickly there's no time to appreciate it. But it's absolutely filthy.
Wow after all these years I didn't think jordan was mimicking him, just thought jordan had a little brain fart.lol.. but yea, Zo used to scream like that after dunks.
@@LANDCRUISERLIFE is that true? I thought so too before. It then gives this another dimension... Jordan really didn't just want to win, but go under the skin of his opponents and destroy them psychologically. Which is kind of cruel but very fascinating and impressive as well in terms of his determination.
I still recall that Baron Davis dunk on Andre Kirilenko like it was yesterday. The build up to that moment was intense considering The Warriors should have never been there in the first place. The Mavs sat Dirk Nowitzki in the last series of the regular season to let the warriors bump up to 8th seed because they were deemed as the weaker team, and the Mavs were number 1. 8th seed Warriors knocked the Mavs out. Then this dunk came in the second round and really made the fans feel like it was in the bag. It was the absolute pinnacle of the pre Steph era. I think the season before they went less than 20 wins but they still sold out. Just a fun group to watch win or lose.
Definitely missing DeAndre Jordan's dunk over Brandon Knight. The other glaring omission is Vince Carter's dunk in the Olympics when he teabagged the 7 footer from France.
In 2014 the most disrespectful dunk was by a Raptor, but not T. Ross. It was James Johnson’s “I cocked that joint back and banged on him” dunk on Drummond complete with footage of the quote
