John Starks' amazing acrobatic move to the basket.

Here is an amazing move by John Starks in the late stages of the 4th period of game 3 of the 1996 Eastern Conference Semi. Finals. The Knicks were up 84-80 and the Knicks had the ball. Starks had it near the 3-point arc and he drove to basket and did a 360 move in the air to score.

his leaping ability was so underrated he's the type of player we need now in NY

[Emanuelknicks]

You are absolutely right!!!

[DL212]

thanks man. i really do enjoy watching the classic games from the 90's hopefully they can turn it around

[InfraaVerdaggens]

Jordan can't do that.

He never turned around in the air like that, he would only shot it backwards.

@omnivorous65 yea u right but i said that cuz not many people say starks when the great knick leapers are talked about. and yea his love of the 3pt shot coupled with the fact he was a streaky shooter killed the knicks in big games e.g. 2-18 in game 7 94 finals

@DL212 A player who delivered "the dunk" is probably NOT underrated for his leaping ability. It's just that the was in love with the 3 point shot too much instead of driving to the hoop more often.
