@hordanpaypen The guy is 7'4, with a 8 foot wing span... all he has to do is lift the arms to block a shot, jump for what? Just enjoy MJ going over him, and stop trying to take away from what Jordan did!
Momma, there goes that MAN!! Ridiculous to see a man dunk with two hands while double-clutching the ball and gliding sideways on a player who is nearly a foot taller... But when that man is MJ, I guess it's understandable.
he had to watch out for the two bulls next to him. if he tried to block jordan, jordan could have passed it to someone or had the slight chance of getting called for a foul.
dunking on eaton is something everybody did ??? lets take it down, there have been made some big dunks on Eaton, but he is still the best shot blocker of all time on stats.. so its hard to call him bad, he average 3.54 BPG in his career . so he is one damn expert on shot blocking.
this kinda height doesnt make him expert dude.. i would say mutombo & hakeem are much better .. guys like eaton/manute bol shouldnt get so easily credits.. its like comparing on vertical jump howard with nate...howard indeed jumps higher but whose the freak of nature?? :P

Mark Eaton was garbage. Imagine if Yao or Dwight on any of those bigs could just camp out in the paint a wait? Dunking on Eaton was something everybody did.
Everyone talks about his dunk on ewing on the baseline. that was a great move by getting rid of sharks and OAK but this dunk is just more abusive..plus Mark Eaton was a wayyy better shot blocker than Ewing which makes this more impressive. poor Mark. MJ comes to town once a year and this is what happens to you in front of all your friends and family. posterized by a guy a foot shorter LMAO
He' s been officially measured at 7-4 barefoot although I agree he looks a lot taller than he actually is. He's high shoulders and a slim built that's why he looks taller than he actually is.
@Repunza well that's how he got the most blocks of any player in his rockie season I believe. Making a lot of blocked shots usually means better defensive abilities.
was this the dunk that followed the jam on stockton, in which a heckler yelled "pick on someone your own size!""...to which jordan replied after going over eaton: "how about that?" I think I remember that dunk being on a fast break, but I could be wrong
No, that dunk you're talking about was in the 1987-1988 season. This video comes from the 1986-1987 season. The guy Jordan dunked on, according to your post, was Mel Turpin.
These were two different instances in which the Bulls visited Salt Lake.
Dr J dunked on Eaton too. You might be able to find it on here. Mark Eaton talked about that when they asked the players what was the best NBA dunk they ever saw. Mark's favorite was the highlight dunk that Doc put on him.
yeah Eaton wasn't much of an offensive powerhouse, but defensively he was just a nightmare! he clogged up a ton of space just by standing in the lane with his arms out stretched.
Isn't this the famous story where Jordan just dunked on John Stockton and a fan yelled "why don't you pick on someone your own size." After Jordan dunked on Eaton he said "big enough?"
I meant to add, the game you're thinking about was in December 1987, about a year after the game in this video (Dec 1986). The man Jordan dunked over in 1987 was Mel Turpin.
At 0:04, there was a player wide open, all alone and they dodn't give him the ball, but instead they gave it to Jordan...ass kissing pass...
