Ky I love them both but they just over power they Giannis especially lebron does have occasional pump fakes and back scratches in traffic but Dominique has double pumps into back scratches from almost the the free throw line and this was in the 80s!
Still my favorite in game dunker of all time. Vince had more versatility and maybe more grace. Kemp might've had more raw power. Nobody combined those qualities like him, though. And he was the CLEANEST dunker ever. No thrunks, no ball rattling around the rim before going through. He straight up SPIKED that shit through the rim straight to the floor like a volleyball.
I´m not sure Vince has more versatility... watch videos of him, the variety is not so big. Also Vince didn´t have the power that Nique had. I will also add that MJ had the ability to stay in the air "suspended" and Nique has a little bit of that quality. Modern dunkers doesn´t have that ability, they can jump really high, but the dunks are performed so fast...
@@robertot.m.8747 Nique attacked the rim, if you were in the way, so be it. It didn't matter how tall the opponent was, he and and the rim were going to get a dose of it.
absolutely agree. He dunked against half court defenses, not just on the break. His rebound slams were quick as a cobra strike.(and just as deadly powerful)
@@jasonlommen4769 well I think doc has to be the best dunker. Was the first one to dunk from the free throw line and got famous just because of his dunks. He posterized anybody he wanted oh and a lot of players like Kobe and Jordan and Lebron copied off of his style. I’ll say that Nique was one of the greatest dunkers not the greatest dunker
So true. He wasn't much of a passer but he developed into a great scorer. Unfortunately in his prime he had Mike Fraternity as a coach, who never really instituted a real offense. His last season with the Hawks thought, Nique was on fire, Jordan was playing baseball, the Pistons and Celtics were old and the Hawks had a 14 game winning streak and were tied for 1st in the East. But it was Nique's last season under contract and the Hawks traded him to the Clippers. Tragic but true.
Nique was a beast, and the '87-'88 squad that took the Celtics to the wire in the playoffs remains one of the most entertaining teams in any sport that I've had the joy of cheering for, that season included the overtime win over the Stockton-Malone Jazz that remains the most thrilling sporting event I've attended in person. Starters were Nique, Kevin Willis, Doc Rivers at point, Tree Rollins blocking everything at center and Randy Wittman at SG. A great bench with Spud, John Battle, Cliff Levingston and Antoine Carr. I doubt I know any other roster by heart like that and I doubt I will again - such a great season to be a Hawks fan.
Man I miss watching this guy play!! The most flamboyant and exciting player to watch play. I stopped watching basketball after the 50 list came out. He should have been top 15 imo.
Rather watch highlights like these on repeat than this new era of B-ball. I almost forgot that players checked their ego at the door (back then) and would contest everything!
That dunk on Bird is an atomic bomb of epicness. The fact that it is Larry Bird and that he goes all in for a block makes it the most underrated in your face dunks ever conceived. Nique the God!
This dude didn't care who you were! You was getting dunked on! Plain and Simple! Being from Atlanta, I saw a lot of these games in real time! Nique was A Monster! The human highlight indeed! Thanks for this!
Back in the day if Atlanta hawks were going to play I got ready to enjoy because with Dominique on board it was simply special. One of my favorite players of all time.
Dominique is one of my favorite all time dunkers !!! He was a beast under the hoop and yet he got a nice style dunking the ball with his trademark the windmill dunk.
If Dominique played in the current era, they would say he is better than Michael Jordan because his stats would be off the charts and they would say that it's due to advanced science and technology that he is as athletic as he is.
Nique was the most powerful in game dunkers ever. His put back dunks were savage he didnt care who he put his nuts on, opposing team his own team didnt matter. His signature 2 footed take off contact in the air double pump to the side and beat the rim up slam.. the sound of the rim was like getting hit with a log. Yes he also had the signature windmill.
It’s crazy how durable this man was. The only man to suffer an Achilles tear and come back even better than he was before. Not to mention you don’t see any dunkers in our game today do these kind of in-game dunks, these were layups to Nique.
I never paid any attention to basketball until the Raptors entered the league when I was 9. Around then, I started seeing these Dominique highlights for the first time, and I remember thinking at first that he was 7 feet tall. He just took up so much space posterizing people at only 6'8".
New millennials don't realize how talented players were back then.Jordan the G.O.A.T but there was people like Dominique Wilkens,Magic,Bird,James Worthy,Sean Kemp,Claude Drexler, Karl Malone,Charles Barkley, Hakeem,Shaq,C Webb,Penny Hardaway,Alonzo Morning,the list goes on and on.
Dunking all over Hall Of Famers left and right. Way too underrated. You can almost see the resignation in the Chief, Robert Parrish’s face, going up for the block.
@Taeindior It’s not Dominique , but here are links to some other videos of that you may enjoy watching, since you enjoy watching how the game once was once played... I also included one of Bird. Magic and Bird are forever linked and intertwined. Here’s a link to Bird’s mixtape: th-cam.com/video/hcXv0JtzNQA/w-d-xo.html Also, here are some other videos that you’ll probably appreciate and enjoy, since you already mentioned his highlights are jaw dropping to you... Check these additional videos out to see what Showtime Lakers, led by Magic, were all about... Here’s a few other videos that are very good watches for fans of Magic, or for people who may not know much about Magic but want to learn more about him as a player, or for people who seem to underestimate his greatness and may need some extra convincing and evidence of it. All are very entertaining and compelling to watch. Check them out to see exactly why he was called Magic... th-cam.com/video/q8Qbo0WqvOI/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/so8R3NTbnEw/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/axbIoHqFaa8/w-d-xo.html The first video is another very well-done highlight video, not just of his amazing passes, but also of his very underrated offensive abilities as a scorer (right and left handed hook shots, countless half-full court buzzer beaters, (as if he practiced those shots hundreds of times), demonstrating his clutchness). Showtime Lakers on full display...fast break after fast break after fast break. Just constantly running up and down the floor, like a track meet... The second video is actual game footage that shows Magic and Showtime Lakers in an actual game, rather than just highlights, to demonstrate that they really played that way throughout entire games, and that it’s not just a series of highlights inflating them up. Showtime Lakers were so much fun and very exciting to watch... The last video is an HBO documentary that is one of the best documentaries I’ve ever seen. (Many clips from it were spliced into this video above). It highlights the Magic vs. Bird rivalry, which still to this day was one of the best rivalries in all of sports. It gives insight into not just their NBA careers, but also their lives, early careers, and childhoods. A very compelling story to watch... If you’re a fan of basketball in general, you’ll definitely enjoy watching these videos...
Other players dunked the ball like they're dunking the basketball. This man slammed like he was swinging a f**kin' DOUBLE-SIDED AXE. I've never seen that in other dunkers and that's why he's my GOAT of dunks.
Power and finesse, unbelievable body control and had a 2nd gear when he saw the hoop. He literally did dunks like this every game. So many dunks with the Spurs, from the Hawks 87' video, NBA Superstars 2, NBA Superstars 1 that weren't on this great video but all those other dunks could be
Blessings from Taiwan ! 🇹🇼😇🤗 Wow! The 1st dunk is already a foul and scored on Legendary Larry Bird ?! 🤯😱🤩 This film is AWESOME !🥰 I miss the "Human Highlight Film😭 " ...DW was FANTASTIC 🥳and humble as well! 😉
@David KinderTeacher Yes - for as many of these posterizing dunks you see him doing, at most, he’ll act excited and high five his teammates, or do nothing at all and just run back on defense. Nothing like today, where a player screams and pounds his chest and flexes after each ordinary play.
He has to be the fanciest dunker of all time. Most would only do these types of dunks in dunking competitions, but Nique was doing it regularly in real games. He is one of my favorite players, along with Drexler and Jordan because they were athletic, physical and drove hard to the basket for a power dunk - usually bulling the big guys on the dunk during an era when big men were supposed to rule.
@@joelvance4969 You're kidding right he was a better jump shorter than LeBron or Kawhi, he could create any shot he wanted vs anyone. He's the only person not name Jordan to drop 30 a game in the 90, he's a better pure scorer than any of them.

Mamma mia!!! He must in the list of 10 best of in-game dunkers ever! His madness on the dunk reminds me of Westbrook, although their styles are totally different. That burst though seems like a common feature!
Dominique was suffering from “normal dunk deficiency “ !!! Just loved his dunks ! Even in traffic he was choosing to go for a double pump one !!! None of the current All Star players are doing so.
The dunks he was able to do in traffic are stupid insane

And while in first place, and with Jordan playing baseball.
