Dean Smith didn't see this dunk live. They had a 10 point lead with less than 10 seconds left, and he wasn't paying attention to the game. After the game MJ asked him if the dunk was a little much, to which his response was 'What dunk?'
its not about who has better stats *looking at Lebron*...its about how you earn them...Jordan earned his through awesome athleticism and a style that many young brothas try to play by
Sime23 this vid is the *, that's why I love NBA even though it has its issues. I'm following this training program that's used even by NBA players - "50-inch-vertical[dot]com" - already I'm jumping better and dominating on the court!
The back-story on this dunk is that the Maryland bench had been woofing at MJ earlier in the game, so when he got that opportunity to put an exclamation point on a double-digit win he added a little sumpin'-sumpin' to it. BTW Dean Smith privately expressed displeasure to Jordan about the showboating aspect of the play, though the coach called Jordan's play that night (and Perkins's) "special".
The above description is wrong. That Len Bias shot blocked by Perkins was not a potential game winner. This game was over long before that play. UNC won 74-62.
@nemke1990 Well Houston needed a center so picking Olajuwan is understandable, and he won 2 championships for them. But the Bucks picking Sam Bowie is one of the biggest wtf moves ever.
I dont understand why we dont see more people doing this dunk in a game in the NBA.. I know its not the easiest but its been done in the past by other dunk contest dunkers.. I think its a thing of beauty! nobody did it like MJ though.
oh my gosh tht s the len bias the mike jordan before mike jordan right he died becuase of a drug overdose ithe fact is he never really dedicated his life to the game like mike so he wouldn't of been better thn mike in his life if it wern't drugs it might of been women just feel like tht very trait would of stopped him form being great
Incredible, incredible athleticism...he glides the length of the court in a matter of seconds and then throws down a dunk contest grade slam at the end of a very physical athlete, demonstrating incredible conditioning. WHAT AN ATHLETE.
Sup Sime23, if you want to improve in basketball, you need to start following the nba training program. I used the nba a real training plan here 50inch vertical[dot]com. I haven t even told this to my college teammates yet lol
4 dribbles 10-11 steps to go from abit b4 the other teams top of the key to putting the ball through the hoop. Everyone rants about Lebron's open floor speed which is also impressive, but this is an early MJ dunk and IMO not at his greatest physical potential yet. That came in 86-87 IMO. No player had the open floor speed combined with the explosive first step of MJ. Forget about the leaping ability and able to adjust in mid air body control. The standard is so high all who follow r boring now
damn, what else can I say. If you play basketball, you need to learn how to dunk. I just recently finished the training program at - snipurl[dot]com/nbatraining – I wish I did it sooner so I could’ve started dunking my in college basketball team (I'm only 5'7!)
i keep looking back on Len Bias or Jordan college videos and just dreamed of what the NBA would have been like with the both of them....just simply amazing
Where did i say i'm a fan of a team that throws batteries ? Reading comprehension, look into it ! Here's what i said. Jordan and his team ran off the court for fear of getting hit with a battery. Why ? Because he successfully and knowingly showed up another team on their court. Seriously, do you just glance through the words without thinking about what they mean ?
I used reading comprehension to determine that you think fans should throw batteries. In turn it shows that the fans (you) of the team you root for throws batteries. Otherwise, why would you even mention it? Apparently we have a Jordan hater on our hands because I can't think of another reason why you would open your retarded mouth. Or type such idiotic words...whatever you want to say. You aren't a fan of NC State, so your input of this matter means nothing. Therefore, you should shut up.
up side his head? You are talking about class and you suggest that your fans would throw a battery at someone? How stupid are you? It's 2 points. It's not like we kept scoring and scoring as a total insult. Quite down and don't act like NC State has never scored on a team when they were up by quite a bit.
where the fuck are you getting the hint that i'm a nc state fan ? fucking retard. how stupid am i ? smart enough not to spell quiet quite, and use country shit like "quite a bit" ! get off the computer and go clean the outhouse for ma and pa.
Up by 10, games over, hauling ass down court for a useless dunk before time runs out in an opposing teams gym ? why would he do that ?
That was obviously a typo and if you aren't smart enough to realize that then I rest my case. Quite a bit is country? Ok and being country means you aren't smart. That shows just how stupid you really are. I believe this conversation is over because you clearly know nothing, but I will go ahead and say this. Why wouldn't he? Is there any reason not to? If your players weren't good enough to stop him from doing that then they are the ones that you should be mad at. Dumbass.
How is saying "quite a bit" a country thing? I'm from Chicago and I say it. You're an asshole. And so what if he showed the other team up? You're a loser to get all worked up about it 25 years after the fact
whoa, you said chicago streets are dirty, that really hurts my feelings there guy. nice comeback. anyway, my point was about your idiotic statement that "quite a bit" is a country thing to say.
This was easily one of the greatest dunks in a game of Jordan's career -- NBA or college. I grew up a Carolina fan and watched that game live. I was in ninth grade at the time and had never seen anything like it. Watched every news show that I could over the course of the next day hoping to see the highlight again and again.
what's with people including kobe in their comments
kobe is a great player but why bother mentioning his name here..even to those who say "kobe who?" i mean who the fuck cares you're just grabbing attention and when a kobe fan comes in to rant about it that's the time you start an "e-fight" LoL so it's you guys who start ...not the kobe fans
Mike not only wanted to win every game..he wanted to win every battle, every highlight..thats what made him so good..he was like Tiger Woods..he refused to lose anything..it was never about the money..
The dunk was sick but it isn't an original. Larry Nance, Ralph Sampson and Dr J all did this dunk before Jordan he just made it look better and took off further away
Yup and its a Trademark and if u ever do it everyone will say your a copycat~ ~They live by upon us. without us they would not shine under the spotlight. :D peace~
Even the best NBA players today can't pull off the energy Jordan did in his infancy in the sport. Once in the NBA he redefined what basket ball could be, should be and what it is today. Today's NBA players mimic Jordan but haven't taken the sport to the next level like he did. Keep in mind he was still in College when a long time ago when he was dropping these bombs.
great clip but, come on, change the description. as stated below UNC was up by 10 points - so to say Bias got blocked on a game-winner is totally false. that's the kind of wrong info that leads to bar fights.
Bias wasn't trying to hit a game winner, N.C was up by 10 points. Jordans dunk was nothing more than a chump move at the end of a great game. Much closer than the final score indicates. He was running off the court because he was scared of getting a battery up side the head.
Wow, bitter after all these years? Lets see, someone as pathetic as you can only be an NC State fan. Maybe Maryland, but I'm thinking you're a Fudge Pack, oops, i mean 'wolf pack' fan for sure.
Not bitter, just recognize no class when i see it. Someone as pathetic as you must be a Hop-A-Long Tarheel fan. "But the baby blue is soooo pretty". I doubt you read this, i'm thinking you jumped off the nearest bridge midway thru the 1st half of that ass-whipping Kansas put on them.
Lol, how about your pathetic game against UNC. You know...the game where you scored 13 points in the first half and in the second we had to let off so that we wouldn't embarrass you? If you are too much of a baby that you can't handle a dunk then you should really quit watching basketball. A NC State fan really has no right to say anything as you are not on the same level as UNC. Hell, no one even considers you a worthy rival anymore. It's all about Duke and UNC now. Oh and a battery
Are you an idiot or something? That's like saying if they'd never let black people in the league, NBA history would be very different. Both are true, and you're a retard.
what's so tight about it, is after he dunk, he immediately landed and started running off the court like he knew he dropped a bomb....that was all energy, that he would unleash throughout the NBA for the next 15 years...the fury
and what makes this so special, it was still regulation time! the stadium was still PACKED! and at Maryland too! and UNC had already won it, and MJ just! just! just! what can i say at the end of this game!!!! when he did the slam you saw everyone then got up to leave! they were all stunned at what they just saw!
this is still my most favorite MJ moment! because the commentator was off the chain with his reaction to MJ's exclamation point at the end of this game! thanks for the post Sime23

Words in Websters Dictionary just don't describe Jordan well enough. Imagine eyes about to pop out, an astonished face and drool pouring out of his or her mouth. Jordan with the signature move that him famous FTW!!!
It wasn't a message, according to David Halberstam's biography about Jordan, to Bias but Adrian Branch who was also on Maryland in this game, who won the McDonald's High School All-Star game MVP over Jordan.
I was about 12 when he hit that dunk, and immediately afterward, all of us, even those who hated Carolina, were out on the 7 foot goals at the elementary school, trying to recreate it.
That would have been the goldenest era of the NBA the from 1986-2000 (Bias would have retired in 2000, if he played0 btwn. Bias and Jordan. It might been more titles for the celtics. It's good to dream .... peace be with you and your brother Mr. Bias.

Wow, bitter after all these years? Lets see, someone as pathetic as you can only be an NC State fan. Maybe Maryland, but I'm thinking you're a Fudge Pack, oops, i mean 'wolf pack' fan for sure.

Not bitter, just recognize no class when i see it. Someone as pathetic as you must be a Hop-A-Long Tarheel fan. "But the baby blue is soooo pretty". I doubt you read this, i'm thinking you jumped off the nearest bridge midway thru the 1st half of that ass-whipping Kansas put on them.

Lol, how about your pathetic game against UNC. You know...the game where you scored 13 points in the first half and in the second we had to let off so that we wouldn't embarrass you? If you are too much of a baby that you can't handle a dunk then you should really quit watching basketball. A NC State fan really has no right to say anything as you are not on the same level as UNC. Hell, no one even considers you a worthy rival anymore. It's all about Duke and UNC now. Oh and a battery

If Len Bias hadnt used coke/crack and died as a result, NBA history would be very different.

Are you an idiot or something? That's like saying if they'd never let black people in the league, NBA history would be very different. Both are true, and you're a retard.

what's so tight about it, is after he dunk, he immediately landed and started running off the court like he knew he dropped a bomb....that was all energy, that he would unleash throughout the NBA for the next 15 years...the fury

Words in Websters Dictionary just don't describe Jordan well enough. Imagine eyes about to pop out, an astonished face and drool pouring out of his or her mouth. Jordan with the signature move that him famous FTW!!!

You can't tell me, knowing what we know about Jordan's competitiveness, that he didn't do that to send a message to Bias.
That's another reason why his death was so tragic: Jordan always responded to challenges, and there weren't enough people who could challenge him.

It wasn't a message, according to David Halberstam's biography about Jordan, to Bias but Adrian Branch who was also on Maryland in this game, who won the McDonald's High School All-Star game MVP over Jordan.

I was about 12 when he hit that dunk, and immediately afterward, all of us, even those who hated Carolina, were out on the 7 foot goals at the elementary school, trying to recreate it.

That would have been the goldenest era of the NBA the from 1986-2000 (Bias would have retired in 2000, if he played0 btwn. Bias and Jordan. It might been more titles for the celtics. It's good to dream .... peace be with you and your brother Mr. Bias.
