I'm sure some of you have seen them, but I found 5 of them that aren't commonly shown.

:roll: I"ve never seen that one before. Jordan was so great, the glass waited until he was far enough away from it to start shattering.

wtf.

It doesn't even looked like he jumped on the last one you linked. It looks like he just floats off the ground.

Air Jordan make the game look easy. He jump effortlessly like Dr. J and VC:applause:

:oldlol: The last one I've talked about for awhile he's done that another time this one isn't have been as impressive but both times the guy gets caled for a foul it's hilarious he doesn't even know what happen cuz he closed his eyes..

That's not Manute in the fourth vid. The guy's not even close to be as tall as Manute was, and Manute never played for the Knicks. Still a great dunk though.

Oh and check this one out. Its funny cause Barkley's about to try and block it and then he's just like "f*** it".

All those dunks were nice. The one at the Magic Johnson charity game is really underrated, and that was after his athletic prime.

I remember you talking about this on the old board, and I always thought that you meant thedunk posted above. You're saying you've seen MJ jump nearly over a guy's shoulders another time? Any idea what game/year?

I do know there are tons of MJ moves/dunks that people have never seen because highlight videos always recycle the same footage. There are about 20 people posting Jordan games on youtube, so I try to keep up with that (in addition to my own 280+ game library :D).

One thing I noticed about watching some all-star game highlights is that from the way Isiah and MJ played with each other, it really doesn't seem like they hated each other as much people say. I mean Isiah and Jordan have had some of the greatest All-Star game plays ever. It never really seemed like they had a problem sharing that spotlight together.

Breakaway on Manute (I think?)

That wasn't Manute, it was NY's SF at the time (Johnny Newman maybe?). Here's an actual dunk on/around Manute:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-YknelEu_rg&feature=related

Jordan's dunked on Manute 4 times that I know of: this one, the famous reverse that's on his "top 10 dunks" (which is a joke, really, since there are so many better dunks MJ did), another less famous reverse, and once when Manute was on Golden State.

By the way, all of the dunks in this thread that say "RARE" on the video title, I originally uploaded them for my compilation video (search for "Michael Jordan Compilation" and you'll see all of these clips in there) and then this dude stole them from me. I edited the clips from my game collection. I don't mind, though, but it's funny that he refuses to give credit. :oldlol:

Yeah, Jordan had some nice dunks during those Magic charity games and dunk contests. He had what I feel to be his most impressive FT line dunk in the 1991 event, seen here:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I6ZH386DwZA

He takes off legit behind the line and easily dunks it while giving a pump and leg flail. Here's another couple of nice dunks from a Magic charity event in this video:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u1e7JT2cHQI (at the 7 second mark where he's damn near horizontal and the 23 and 45 second marks)


As for rare Jordan dunks, here are a few:

vs. Phoenix, 1989; sick elevation and power at the 4:45-4:46 mark: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f6iG-TKZE38

vs. Detroit, 1989 playoffs; Jordan sh!ts on Laimbeer from sick distance: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pzzNa6Fzcr8

(look how far he takes off from; his foot is nearly outside the lane well past the hash mark; if you extend this in an arc to the center of the lane it's basically a near FT line dunk THROUGH someone. Insane. Too bad we never got to see it from the normal game angle due to stupid-ass camera men)


Jordan sh*ts on Cliff Robinson at the 4:32-4:40 mark here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8_sIaA0hUBk (they replay it afterwards)


There are so many dunks he's done that you never see in highlight videos. It's not like today where every move/play/dunk is chronicled on youtube. You actually have to dig into the original games to find these.

Video was too unclear for me to decipher what team it was, let alone the stadium, the jerseys, and the specific player he dunked on. Sorry, I didn't know.:confusedshrug:

edit: but Jordan has dunked on quite a few people "Jordan on Manute" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-YknelEu_rg
