honestly, I see how Hakeem put his arm on Mason but I don't see how that made him elevate higher. Dude boosted off the ground from the jump. It's not as if Hakeem couldn't jump high on his own anyway. This might be the sickest putback dunk ever

[GialloHorror]

Olajuwon used Anthony Mason to boost himself up for that dunk. He clearly has his left hand on Mason's shoulder

u see how high he got haha he could of put his arm down the rim

[pbireton]

Not in a million years would that be called an offensive foul...in any league, anywhere.

[teesteven]

that should be a foul on pat riley for making mason think he could defend the dream in that series

[jamesanderson26]

only player to do it on his own without any other superstar help. HAKEEM!!!!! all time favorite.

like jordan said, if it wasnt called a foul, then its not a foul. nice athletic move

[RenoAU]

Offensive foul!

[blackrob2g]

Over the back foul

[NWsideHtownBaller]

@blackrob2g...the catch with calling this an over the back foul is Hakeem would have actually had to go over his back. Please show me where that happened?

[SETCHIN]

how about a foul? Muggsy Bogues could have done the same thing if he climbed up Maseon's back like that too...

[jmpkool]

@SETCHIN nice one...on the same subject guess who else dunked like that? robinson ....in the dunk contest were he used howard the same why to get more elevation. your on the ball.

He got a little "help" from Mason on that jump. :)
