That dunk will go down in nba history as one of the best ever...John starks will never be forgotten on that dunk alone.. and it was awesome....I still keep watching cause it was spectacular...
One of my favorite new york knicks of all time, john starks was the perfect knick because he had heart, gritty and he loved the game of basketball, the exact kind of player knicks fans love, the nba nowadays needs more players like john starks
The guy was bagging groceries at a Oklahoma supermarket just a few years prior to playing in the NBA. Really a remarkable story, although game 7 still haunts me. But it definitely wasn't all on him
NBA ratings have never gone back to this level that they were in the 90's, the intensity was amazing. The rivalry between these big cities like NYC, Chicago, and Detroit can't be matched.
There was no med ground for John starks either he was on or he was notta factor but he made that one all star team when the east was the east he could be summed up as a guy that was really good he played against all the greatest in the toughest media market in the world and lasted several seasons even got checked by the great Patrick Ewing he even heard butted the great the flopper hofamer Reggie Miller he was nbc basketball when they went triple headers erysunday
Not a Knicks fan. Not a Starks fan. But this is one if not the best in your face dunk in NBA history. The power, the gracefulness, the atmosphere, the left hand…the everything.
look where he takes off from and get so high in the air to throw it down, Starks is not a big dude with monkey arms, he's maybe 6'4 and his arms are more proportional to his height
they just cant seem to reproduce the tension and excitement these days that those games had. specially if you were a knick fan during the 93, 94 finals series. unbelievable.
Yea well I watched Wilt Chamberlain on TV a few times if that will tell you anything LOL...............Plus watched on TV the 72 Dolphins go undefeated
Wide World of Trains this was hands down THE BEST era of basketball idgaf what nobody sais, we remember these games and Chips like it was yesterday, now a days you have to scratch your head to remember who won the chip in 2003-4 and exactly what events played out.. i miss this too!
@@FiasaPower yes he would. Oakley played at 225 and couldn't move like James, Ewing played at 240 and LeBron would take him out past the perimeter and make him defend 18 and Mason couldn't get up and down the court. 6'7 250 with speed. Humans evolve. LeBron is more evolved. Also those Knicks teams won exactly 0 with all their intimidating nonsense. The Bulls dominated them every single time Jordan was upright and it wasn't because some false bravado hard foul nonsense they tried to pull. LeBron would run through Ewing, around Oakley, and Mason....he just sucked.
Switching the ball from right to left, flying above Grant and through Jordan. This is one of the greatest dunks I have ever seen. I've met Starks. Humble, super nice guy. He's 6 feet tall on a very good day. Makes this flying leap and sky dunk even more spectacular. A great moment to watch.
I Googled "the dunk"and this popped up. I remember watching this as a kid. I hated the Knicks but I liked Starks for some reason I think he always seemed like an underdog to me
yes and this is a small guy, I'm 6ft and I took off from there to do a reverse layup, you gotta be a decent leaper to make that work, I can't imagine taking off from there and dunking. Dude is explosive
@@JohnWalsh2019 and Michael Jordan is literally putting the team on his back for another win 😂 I remember that. Calling any NBA finals team clowns just showed you know nothing about the game.
@@edwardmitchell7 I am calling them clowns just because I didn't like the Knicks. I really disliked Starks and Ewing I am not disputing that MJ carried the Bulls to a win against the Knicks. Being a Bulls fan there were just a few teams we hated the NY Knicks was one of them and the Pistons was the other. I loved nothing more than seeing the Knicks shut down. Starks had one good dunk but every game Jordan had amazing dunks. MJ was the best ever! Pippen also had a lot of good dunks. I never claimed to be a basketball expert but I was a fan. And I know enough to understand the Bulls all around were the better team, as history shows. :)
One of my favorite dunks of all time! That boy got up there and came down with the leaning left hand on the bulls for the exclamation mark!!!! That was his moment!!
You dumb Bro. FACT: Starks was only allowed past his defender because of a missed call. Ewing buttraped BJ Armstrong and got away with it. FACT: Jordan would have smacked that weak sh!t out of the stadium if his own teammate had not prevented it. FACT: The "WHOLE TEAM"?!? There was literally only 2 players near him, and they blocked each other, Grant didn't even try to stop Starks.
Win, loose, or draw these guys gave it they’re all!!!! Thanks for the good times. 🧡💙 Couldn’t wait for the Knicks to play the Bulls, Pacers, and Heat!!! If you can’t beat him, then just make sure you play hard and get some good fouls in!!!!
John Starks is NYC…and still is I saw him 3 times in my life .. even tho he wasn’t raised with us in nyc .. this will forever be his city yep..more than any ny athlete.. what starks did for the youth in nyc was amazing .. he showed hart and courage I mean teams hated to face us we was NYC feared and respected … I mean players were afraid to play in nyc wow crazy …that number 3 is the reason I love the ny knicks today ..and to this day at 38 I tell my son curry would of hate Starks just ask miller and jordan
@@istsu2026 , no need for foul language. You are probably too young and jealous that couldn't witness what real basketball is all about. Enjoy watching the so called NBA today.
@@gogalevus You aren't doing anything except proving my point. Why would I be jealous? Because I couldn't watch the worst era of basketball, where fouls weren't called because that was thought of as weak? Where the talent in the NBA was so sparse that the good players seemed like gods? Put Jordan in today's basketball and see what happens. Put his entire team in actually. They would get smoked from three point range, and they would have trouble playing their normal midrange/inside game with all the all star bigs in today's league.
The NBA today is a joke compared to the 80s and 90s. You can't even touch someone now without a foul being called. Your NBA sucks and is a pussy league.
the 90s is the best era of everything. i dont care whatever it is. it was best in the 90s. cartoons, food, nba, boxin, education, dancin, women, quality of life.....the 90s!
Chris Nata Yes, Russell was one of the greatest defenders ever, was a trailblazer for black basketball players, and won a lot of titles. But that doesn't make him the greatest basketball player of all time. Top 10 for sure, but you can't be THE greatest when you spend most of your career as the #3 or #4 scoring option - you just can't compare that to the pressure of being the single guy carrying the load on both ends night in and night out.
Statalyzer Russell revolutionized the sport. If it was not for him, there would have been no Jordan, Magic, Jabbar, James, etc etc etc. What he did for the sport, that alone, should make him the greatest of all time. And if your greatness is judged by the number of championships, then once again, that makes him the greatest of all time.
Oak, Mase and Ewing... Now THAT'S one bad ass front court. Enjoyed watching them their whole careers. Great time to be a Knicks fan even though there was always Michael, Larry or Magic standing in our way. Regardless, Today's NBA can NOT compare to this era of basketball. No way, no how. It was a rough game back then. No ticky tack fouls. If you couldnt cut it, you couldn't make it...
You people needa chill lol, yeah he didn't posterize Jordan but Jordan DID contest, therefore he did get dunked on. Now what if Jordan had blocked the dunk from the position he was in. It would've been a block right? So this is considered being "dunked on"
the best games were always the Knicks Vs Bulls, the only thing that had a chance at stopping the Bulls to a ring, the best days of the NBA, will never forget this dunk, and I got to watched it live, privileged ;) watch a few you'd be impressed

This was the one and only game I attended with my dad before he died in ‘97. I couldn’t talk for a week. One of the great times we ever had together.
was last game i saw with my dad as well ... rip dad..
Cherish the moments fellas. 💪🏿
@221_b_baker2 I ALWAYS ASK PEOPLE IF THEYVE SEEN A MJ GAME IN PERSON HOW ELECTRIFYING
That’s a great memory to have with your father, my condolences for your lost

It’s a good dunk but no
@Rob Tancredi lol he didn’t dunk on Jordan
😅Bruh.....Calm TF down.
Chicago stand up ♥️
I remember watching it thinking that Jordan was the only one who could perform dunks like this. I was a fan of Starks after this. Lol
Yes John Starks will be forever known for this dunk and his terrible game 7 at the finals 🤦🏽♂️
One of my favorite new york knicks of all time, john starks was the perfect knick because he had heart, gritty and he loved the game of basketball, the exact kind of player knicks fans love, the nba nowadays needs more players like john starks
I hear u and loved him but that Game 7 against Houston was a Hard Pill to Swallow...
Yes, They need more players like Starks and more 1990s basketball, too. Those days are missed.

The Knicks Were so close. They had size over the Bulls, and still lost. Kinda of a Knick thing really.
Bulls versus Knicks and The Pacers were the greatest games I’ve ever seen.
I was 11 I still remember that game as well
Straight gangster dunk by starks from the good ole days of the nba
The whole world jumped up for that one! Still get goose bumps watching Starks get busy. Epic!
Goose Bumps is the Hives you are experiencing to the Herpes outbreak you regularly get.
i watched this on live TV back then...to this day i consider this John Stark's move "THE DUNK" of all times....he was a special that night....
There was no med ground for John starks either he was on or he was notta factor but he made that one all star team when the east was the east he could be summed up as a guy that was really good he played against all the greatest in the toughest media market in the world and lasted several seasons even got checked by the great Patrick Ewing he even heard butted the great the flopper hofamer Reggie Miller he was nbc basketball when they went triple headers erysunday
Right. One night stand. And forgotten into obscurity.

.. and the spin and stumble that John does adds to the coolness of it
If you want the all time in your face dunk, look no further than Pippen on Ewing.
@@charlesm7589no it’s 100% the point dunk by Shawn kemp
When they traded Starks, they traded the heart of the team. Oakley was the soul. The 90's were great years.
Sprewell had arguably a bigger heart and unarguably more talent than Starks, though. We don't make that miracle run in 99 without him.
For sure! Great times for the Knicks they had so much heart then. I grew up in New York and loved them.

Beautiful move by Starks. I've always been a big fan of his.
John Starks climbed the ladder on that 1.
Still remember watching this back in the day. It's still one of the greatest dunks I've seen.

It is amazing how these dunk lists dont have this visage dunk it them. Starks served up a serious facial to about 3 guys in that dunk.
Didn't even get to finish writing my search, it already knew what I was looking for.
This was so legendary 🙌
I remember this one as a kid John Starks made me appreciate more players who didn't make the all star game
That was a beautiful move by starks. He was so good.
That is one of the greatest moments in NBA Knicks History my friends. Damn that was a great play.

Agreed. Must have been batshit after that dunk, most incredible in game dunk I've ever seen.
This sums up the New York Knick fan experience - glimmers of brilliance followed by crushing defeat.
You summed that up so perfectly for any true NY Knick fan.
The 93' was the best NBA season of all time hands down
...hard to disagree with you... The playoffs that year were filled with dramatic twists in almost every series
Them years were awesome! Love them years of basketball!
This dunk SHOOK America for a few days. Then MJ finally had enough and dropped 54 on Starks.

I think he jumped over Grant but then he moved out of the way and Jordan moved in the way so he got dunked on.
Can you see? Michael Jordan didn't get there quick enough because Grant was in the way. John Starks didn't dunk on Jordan, he dunk on Grant.
Nathan H22 Well, let's be honest, Jordan's hand is definetly near the ring as well as Sparks hand. He dunked on both,
Speaking of rings, at least Jordan has one.
Kenan Nabulsi that's irrelevant to the conversation
