John Starks-The Dunk

The Garden faithful had watched this scene unfold too many times, especially at the hands of Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls. The clock showed 1:26 remaining and the Knicks had already blown a 14-point third quarter lead when John Starks instantly became a part of New York sports lore. Flashing around a Patrick Ewing screen, Starks drove baseline and exploded to the rim. Horace Grant and Jordan be damned, Starks rose to the rafters inhabited by past Knick greats and threw down a vicious, lefty tomahawk jam over both. An incredulous Garden crowd erupted at the sight as Starks bounded down the court forever a legend.

Jordan fans have many rings to talk about...

BUT KNICK FANS HAVE THIS DUNK TO APPRECIATE. Any Bulls/Jordan fan that tries to take away the greatness of this dunk is just pathetic. Starks ROSE TO THE OCCASION and put a facial on Horace and MJ. Nuff said...

I was 13 y/o when I saw this game, how old were you? Not even born yet? I hate these younging BS Jordan worshipers that weren't even around to watch him play on the Bulls.

How's MJ's penis taste? Starks didn't actually dunk on Jordan, but to say that dunk is no big deal and then to bring up irrelevant things out of context like is truly idiotic. Just appreciate the dunk for what it is and stop defending your billionaire boy friend.

KNICKS 2013 GOGOGOGO

Has nothing to do with it. Grant was there to contest it, not MJ who was too late to contest.

[gwynedd1]

Cept that he basically dunked on Grant. Jordan was on the dotted circle when Stark was already going up. Not a dunk on MJ. Good dunk though.

Did this dude just did this?

Big deal ...what about being 2 for 18 in the playoffs vs Houston ..what about giving up 54 points to MJ in the playoffs...please he wasn't all that good ...that was a so so dunk ..I don't know why is such a big deal...MJ shouldn't even try on it ..he was late coming over
