1988 Slam Dunk Contest

[Regal07]

lets see who would win the slam dunk contest out of them two now. lol

[RoofR2Ent]

Nah the winner won!!! To everyone saying Wilkins should've he basically did the same thing twice. What's the big difference between a windmill and a double handle windmill, an extra hand and the judges seen that so on his last dunk that's why he got the 45. cause he just added an extra hand to the dunk he just did

[bigtallguy10]

Wilkins is more powerful player and i would favor him in one on one vs jordan

[Danks4z0]

Jordan's dunk at 2:14 fucking sucked I would've gave him a 40 at most... Then the crowd gets pissed off that he got a 47... lol WOW!!!!

[Regal07]

hello there in chicago so yes there gonna get pissed

[msclgns]

2 classy guys all the way. Too bad the NBA doesn't keep too many of them around anymore...

[NoOneCanDefeatKB24]

Kobe Bryant!

[baddog7676]

Dominique Wilikins should've won this one.

His dunks were much more amazing and powerful!

The Human Highlight film Nique was the man!!!

[Hibbs4Prez]

Should have been Dominique's.

[rufusbaron]

Jordan's "Lean-In" is the greatest dunk of all time.

[SpeedPastYou]

come on. no one dunk can be called "the greatest". there's just been too many.

[peoplecracy]

jordan stepped over the line quite a bit tho

[harm2007]

Yup, Nique had the same ol' dunks, Jordan kept coming up with some new creativity!

[BGSH]

Yeah, Nique has power and his dunks are thunder, but like someone said before, he kept doing the same dunk over and over. lack of MJ's creativity, so winner was clear.

[ThEiLLeZT]

I always see Nique doing the same old windmill or of the glass dunk.

[deltanaija]

wilkins got robbed

[w1ktor]

anyone knows the any music in that video?

[bigdaddy31313]

if Spud Webb was there he'd have done it again.

[eldoryazdee]

@bigdaddy31313

he was there... lost during the elimination...

[kiddmike]

Jordan and Dominique go hard at it how come we dont get to see those classics dunks no more in the nba now.

[stevenliu415]

u kown that wilkins always do same windmill and 360 dunk

[gemstar77]

buddy it was a make up call. They gave jordan a bad score on a great dunk and they were just making up for it. a figure 8 dunk should have been 50....so they made a mistake and made a make up call

[Sampson678]

It didn't hurt Jordan that his final dunk was one of the most famously replayed in all of televised sports, but to give 'Nique a 45 on his final dunk was just lunacy; reminds me of Ali vs Doug Jones back in '63. To his credit as Wilkins was as classy as they come, and hopefully he finds solace in the fact that anyone who watched this knows he won it.

[Dubby5]

I never knew MJ missed his first attempt

[KALANI12017]

Personally I think D. Wilkins did the windmill slam like 5 times in this competition. He kept doing the same dunk over and over. No wonder he got a 45 on the last one

[will434usmc]

I agree. This should have been a draw. MJ got some home-cooking.

[scoutie101]

Come on...did anybody really expect that Jordan would be even ALLOWED to lose in Chicago? Personally, I think they tied. I don't see how one could be judged as "better" than the other.

[smoothALOE]

A 45! What kind of bush league, partisan judging is that?

[eldoryazdee]

@smoothALOE

its called homecooking...
