Michael Jordan 1988 Slam dunk from free throw line MJ

[ana76261]

type "short guy dunks" in the youtube search box to see a 5ft 5in guy dunking a 10ft hoop

[elisezliu]

michael jordan is the most amazing person that ever walked on the face of this planet. end of story. lol

[np216]

this was 87 buddy

[seanman1231]

I hate to do this to you, but the title is somewhat wrong, I'm not sure where this video came from, but the '88 all star game was in Chicago, not wherever this video came from, don't believe me, look it up

[y0utubemetube]

Wow,MJ can really sprint!

[darrouken]

wow michael is fast

[bd001217]

Jordan's foot was over the line when he took off. He NEVER dunked from behind the line.

[stupidkid508]

@bd001217 who gives a fuck? Big difference, he jumped 12 ft 9 in instead of 13 feet oohhhh its not impressive anymore...

[Beyondz28]

@bd001217 you should check out the 1985 dunk contest

[semajgnik]

@bd001217 look how easily he dunked it. if he didnt pump it he could easily dunk it from 1 foot behind the ft line.

[Bigtimekillr]

jdirty go get a life...why you even watch this video of you are hater of mj?and just come to argue...

[Prozone2]

If your sick of people fightin on utube give me a dam thumbs up

[0011philboy]

@Prozone2 hahaha now u got 35 thumbs up!!!!

[kelvinickable]

@0011philboy i got 1119 thumbs in a video before LOL

[kbplaya123]

@kelvinickable i got 300 thumbs up on the video "look me in the eye" the michael jordan vid

[pinoy6054708]

Hold up, I Thought Dr. J did this first?

[jdirty45]

AND he invented a basic dunk? Is that what your suggesting to me?

Well if thats the case then I guess jump shots were invented by Magic and rebounds were invented by The Worm (Dennis Rodman).

[BennyCorleone]

Doctor J didn't invent the dunk either. Because Dr. J made his mark doesn't make him the end all say all to balling. Your fighting an uphill battle trying to put Dr J's game above Jordan. What player today has surpassed Jordan's reign? NONE. You have people who think Vince Carter is better, some who think Kobe Bryant is better. But the numbers don't match up to the hype. You continue with the nonsense and I'll run you Jordans stats. Michael Jordan is the G.O.A.T ~ Period.

[thettruest]

respect to Dr. J and the first to make the FT line dunk popular but he was not as good as jordan

[VeeTwelve]

00:11 the pose that will never be forgotten

[SilkySmoofe]

ur the man caleb!!!!!!!

[mingoroadman]

NO ONE was better than Dr. J. So just shut up. NO ONE - he could jump out of the building. NO ONE was better. NO ONE. Do you hear me? NO ONE.

[jdirty45]

About time somebody with common sense tells it. As I said before, I got all respect for MJ but the Dr. Is the man, the ORIGINAL AIR.

Don't listen to these one time Bulls groupies who jumped ship from supporting the Bulls after Jordn left.

[thettruest]

you're an idiot.

[jdirty45]

MJ was great indeed but... the true king of AIR is Dr. J.

Jordan jumped from the line and "just" made it on his SECOND attempt. Dr. J had half of his foot foot over the line but had PLENTY room to spare when he dunked.

[freak51]

Yeah but jordan double clutched it.

[jdirty45]

Clutched..lol man let me tell you something, With that gangsta afro, pork chops and booty shorts, Dr.J flew like a hawk and made it look too easy. I got love for MJ but he made it on his 2nd attempt and struggled to make it.

But if you want to get ugly with it, Spud Webb was the beast.

[Milkman23]

did he pump it? no i don't think so and he didn't just make it lol. You should review Dr.J's tape its not that impressive in the world of dunking anymore

[jdirty45]

What in the hell do you mean not inpressive anymore?!

Son, I understand your a MJ fan and likewise I can't tell you shit. If you can't understand the ORIGINAL air then thats your loss.

[BennyCorleone]

lol! No ball player has a more awesome poster shot from the free throw than Jordan. I wish milkman would get a poster of Dr. J and lets compare the photos lol! lol!

[jdirty45]

Benny Benny Benny, I feel so sorry for your father. He shudda put you in ice skating cause your knowledge of Ballin is minus -4.

[BennyCorleone]

Ha ha! You can't even talk shit right, never mind getting you on the court. Jordan Revolutionalized the game of basketball. Before him the Sky Hook and Finger Roll was CLASSIC. Jordan brought style to the lay~up. Turned normal people who didn't even watch sports period in to B Ball junkies. No more throwing elbows to your opponents jaw after a rebound. No more skimpy thigh hugging shorts. Any novice such as yourself who plays the game and Imitates Jordan, plays and elevated game.

[jdirty45]

You sounded like a wounded old woman with that loong drawn out reply.

You say novice.. Boy I'll skin yo ass up on the court.

Now that your tampon is changed, what were you trying to say again?

[BennyCorleone]

Ok let me sloooow it down and put it in super rookie terms. In the 60's,70's, early 80's you could grab a rebound and purposely elbow your opponent in the jaw, that was considered a normal part of the game. You do that today you'll get shot. Jordan brought a no contact finesse to B Ball. The (Hand Check) ~sadly banned in todays NBA ~ was manifested by Jordan, where you place one hand on your opponent to feel him out, or rip his ball. 1987 the AIR pocket in the heel of Nikes debuted. Capisce!

[jdirty45]

ok let me speeed it up for you son, Your talking about street ball and regulation. Yes in regulation you can't throw bow's, slap people ect but that is not my argument.

However, Jordan was not an angel either, he threw a few bow's himself but if anyone simply bumped into Jordan, ref call a foul.

I understand your a Jordan groupie and I got love for MJ but my argument is Dr. J is the ORIGINAL and finesse has always been there. MJ didn't invent shit.

[BennyCorleone]

Ok no question about it, when you watch Dr. J you can clearly see that Jordan is a student of Dr.J. Dr. J was light years ahead of his time. Almost everything Jordan does proves he's Dr. J's kid disciple. But I can name 2 things he arguably invented. The leaning to the side dunk, and the airness when he hit clutch 3 Pointers. He'd average 30 to 35" inch vertical leaps on his 3 pointers. Still Jordans stats run like Mike Tysons rap sheet. There's no question whether MJ was the greatest

[jdirty45]

So your telling me that MJ invented a 3 point shot by jumping higher than the avg man

AND he invented a basic dunk? Is that what your suggesting to me?

Well if thats the case then I guess jump shots were invented by Magic and rebounds were invented my The Worm (Dennis Rodman).

[thettruest]

uhh yea

compare how many freethrows players shoot today with how many jordan shot

Not even close.

try again.

Dr. j wasn't the only player Jordan was inspired by btw. Try kareem as well, or oscar (who is credited with inventing the fadeaway). Mainstream kids only talk about the Dr. J and jordan connection because all they see is dunks and the style.

You ain't lookin like too much of a baller yourself either.

[thettruest]

jordan was 6'4

J played small forward and was almost 6'7

[rockyman500]

spudd is like 5'6" or something

[jdirty45]

Yes he is and he WON a dunk competition. You young cats think Im hating on MJ and that aint the case. I got mad love for MJ.

All Im saying is than He aint the ORIGINAL AIR. You groupies can't understand that. especially you BIGTIMEKILLR.

You call it like you want but it is what it is hommie.

[winner4455]

He wasn't the original air, but he made air original!

[ultramantiga320]

its call air jordan cause jordan airs too much

[chickmagnet3233]

but jordan richer than pippen so it dont mater

[BOOM136]

Why dont they just call this move air jordan ? Cuz its the air jordan logo :S

[filijifulis]

this is the 1987 dunk you idiot

[MrMojo112]

pippen actually dunked from the FT line...jordan dunked in front of it.

[thettruest]

pippen is almost 6'8.

jordan isn't even 6'5 (olympics measured him at 6'4.75... NBA hyped up stats prior to 90s)

[MrMojo112]

Pippen still dunked from the free throw line...the main point is that the NBA decided to overlook it.

[thettruest]

ah

when did it happen and how did they overlook it?

[beautifulwoodenlegs]

yup i remember pippen talking about that one night when he was commentating on a pre game show

[mid918]

fuck me

[CBFUSION94]

two bad he's not the original person to slam dunk that shit!

try "chocolate thunder", now there's talent!

[altian1011]

wow some his hangtime is unbelievable

[LakerGirl4Life]

cheyaaaaa

[iforgotwhatiwasdoin]

Jordan sucks.

[08pimp]

bro...are u retarded...seriously?

[iforgotwhatiwasdoin]

You suck, so SHUT UP!

[08pimp]

u must be a lil kid cuz u sound like one...u put three separate comments on here when u could have put them in one...ur really smart...dumbass!

[iforgotwhatiwasdoin]

Dude i'm just kidding all right? I am 16 years old and this was a joke. If you fing it offensive than I apologize.

[iforgotwhatiwasdoin]

And by the way, Jordan rocks and you don't suck.

[08pimp]

yea its all good.

[iforgotwhatiwasdoin]

All right, i'm good too.

[iforgotwhatiwasdoin]

08PIMP SUCKS!

[iforgotwhatiwasdoin]

Why don't you die?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

[cclasslarenzer]

and there goes the greatest basketball player ever

[mdogg2001]

LOL did u guys see KOBE get shut down vs HOuston for they're 22th win? Battier fuckin owned his ass. KOBE couldn't even adjust, and besides u can't compare a 'rapist' to the 'greatest.'

[rocketsfan92]

YOUR SUCH A DUM SHIT ITS NOT EVEN FUNNY

[pharry4life]

F off newbie...Jordan created the world Kobe lives in...accept that.

[SooperNeek]

mj is sick! it looks like he's walking on air!

[dembeto]

he's not walkin on the air...he is the air

[morskadeva]

uhh that made sense

[toyotas2006]

Uh....that's not the 1988 Slam Dunk, it was 1987. The video was produced in 1988.

[freemsia]

I wonder when we will ever see someone pull this in a real game. That would have been way cool, but of course, risky if you missed it.

[YoungFury20]

he's got to be from some super basketball planet or something lol.

[carsdankandchicks]

how the fuck does he do that

[seether18]

joe fraietta:thats what she said

[epetyou49ers]

J Moon already got it trus tme

[Afridi786]

yeah he took off like two feet inside the free throw line after taping a line a foot behind the line.

[nickoudumho]

the fuck you talkin bout?

[Netjack]

jamario moon is going to attempt that.

damn.........

[joefraietta]

are you serious how the hell is the free throw line overated ur a retart do you know how hard and long that is

[joefraietta]

thats insane i dont think anyone will have a shot to be better then him. Lebron James might have a chance. But MJ just had the sickest hops.

[151MP]

Amazing

[GoldenMF]

Jordans Hang Time Is Unreal! Plus He Was Nice Guy, Got All The Ladies, Had So Many Records. MJ King Of NBA.

[tdubb3]

The free throw line dunk is so overrated.

[tigeron2]

can you do it ?? ummm nooo

[tuzwol]

you're right he is

[DTdaALplayer]

This Dunk never gets old. Mj is the greatest. 6 rings, a bunch of scoring titles, 2 Slam Dunk Titles, Defensive player of the year, 50 Greatest Players list, I don't have enough space to keep telling you about my man Mike.

[sandalface]

He also has the most points in all star games and the most points scored in a playoff game. this is the dunk they use on the jumpman logo

[caso1986]

man that's not the dunk forthe jumpman...that dunk is the dunk he made with his left hand in a courtyard dressed withjordan 1 outfit...go to niketalk and ull see some pics very often

[sunshinecom]

man that's not the dunk forthe jumpman

[iankobe]

Seriously.

MJ is the best.

PERIOD.

[bushbush2]

6 rings 6 final mvps, career average 30 points,

if that's overrated...then you have to show me a player who can do better

[lad420]

jordan=six championship rings

[eighteenten]

Keep your whining to yourself, no one would buy that. He more than lived up to props people are giving him.

[0oGambleo0]

wow. i can do this on runescape. with a gnome ball

[jenjen0512]

mj sucks

[manyturk]

stfu

[shotty515]

any stupid fuck that says kobe is better then MJ deserves to be shot WTF is on yall shit

[dainknudson]

y the heck would sm1 think that kobe is better than mj!! i agree w/ CEBPTE

[pimpmastadc]

lol saying kobe is better then mj he not even close hes not even as good as lebron.

[gzatical]

lebron is over hyped i bet kobe could beat him

[cadrus]

kobe better than michael?!!!!!are u shitting me?!!!!!!!!!!MJ was better at everything:defense,assists,poi­nts,rebounds,steals,blocks,and not only the stats show it but everything you retard.Only kobe only plays for himself that's why he scores so much points and everyone think he's so great....he sucks under pressure...not like MJ who won many many games at the last second in finals vs utah and others like CLEAVLEND...and he won 6 championships...KOBE won three with shaq

[footbalplaya34]

naww kobes not better then mj

mjs way better everything about jordan is better than kobe

kobe shouldove ben MVP though i have to say

[hazem34238]

this dunk doesn't matter and kobe is better than mj.

[SadegoGG]

Is that why Kobe Bryant and the rest of the NBA all-stars cannot even beat Italy in a basketball game? Isnt Italy smaller than Texas?

[mavrick790]

Remember Croatia vs Dream Team? Cro was leading, till bout the midway of 3rd...

[CEBPTE]

So0me people say that kobe is better than M.J. But if he is so good lets see him try this dunk.

[Tom87O]

1987 is the yaer. Dam i wonder how little people who writte abut basketball actually no about it

[mladjo82]

[oneonePyoPyo]

i wish I can fly~~~

[holtsy18]

i fluff

[nafftali]

Dr. J, Brent Barry nobody else. James White did a between the legs but it was inside the line, Vince Carter did a two hand but it was inside the line.

[welsersalas]

all dunkes have big hands, but jordan was diferent he played with his heart dude

[moblackman]

Sick Dunk. He does if off the dribble, which makes it harder. Also you have to have really big hands to palm it, and conrol it like. What dunker now has hands big enough to do that.

[ChronicCommentator]

Yeah i hate clips that have awesome content and they put shit music on it or screw it some way or the other by altering something on the footage!!! Sometimes things are best left intact and the way they are. Thanks for the clip, keep up the good work.

[dor7676]

that was Cool ! MJ The King !

fuck the comment above me...

[Jacrcruz]

boring!

but cool

fuck the comments below me!

[TonyMontana1983]

[imtihouse]

hmmmm, u could make it better by showing some other of his dunks and added sum bakground music

[HilaryMKAFAN88]

[Tallbrownandhandsome]
