Like Kenny say you don't need the name... u need the game. Jason Richardson was a guy that ppl didnt know he could dunk like crazy like that until the dunk contest.
He wasn't as good IN-GAME dunker than VC. He is a great break away dunker, but Vince dunks on great defenders. Probably has best in-game dunks (arguably) of all time. J-Rich did some but not as much as VC. Besides VC got the total package as a player. Thats why casual fans are more familiar with VC rather than J-Rich. Personally, J-Rich is a better SLAM DUNK CONTEST dunker. Those he made before the final dunk were more spectacular than what VC did. Combine those from what he also did in 2003. Especially the inbetween the legs finale. Best one to date.
abprepboy33 And you making my case. Thank you. Nobody knows because his in game wasnt elite and being showing on TV alot. Not even on SportCenter Top 10
This was 20 yrs ago already!? Damn I'm getting old. Looking back at this, we didn't appreciate him as much because after the Vince Carter phenomenon, the standard was set and they would compare the dunkers to how they're sub-par compared to VC. We forget that this man won it multiple times too. The way he cocked those dunks with speed and power. Damn! He's the original J-Rich. I hate that they call Josh Richardson the same way. He's one of the few players I liked because he could dunk it well and shoot the 3. Guys like Carter, Finley, Stackhouse, T-Mac etc. I enjoyed them on NBA live 00-05 they all got the dunker and 3pt icons. Classic
For me what really sets him apart from the group is ... nobody else just be chillin talkin mess to his boys one second, then all of a sudden spin around and pull off a classic dunk the next. Much Respect J Rich Spartan Dawg!!!
Chuck: "Im still trynna figure out why you got to be a judge. You over there with some hall of famers" Jet: "Naw, just a couple guys with some rings." DAMN.
I like that how only runs for 2-3 steps on some of his dunks. Almost like he's just bs around, and all of the sudden he's pulling out all kinds of magical shit in the middle of the air.
Nah. Vince only competed in one dunk contest to J-Rich's 3. J-Rich spent all year planing what dunks he would do, while Vince made his up on the spot. If Vince lived for the dunk contest and planed all year, and if Vince was in three dunk contests, Vince would have made J-Rich look stupid.
I agree. The fuckin dumbest idea in the history of the allstar weekend. I hated this one. It’s like the dunkers are forced to showcase their worse. We wanna see their best.
4:20 Barkley: "I'm still tryna figure it why you a jude, you over there with some hall of famers" Kenny: "Naw just some guys with a couple rings" lmaooooo
I went to school with jason richardson at Nouvel catholic central high school in saginaw. When the classes competed the only Competition, the freshman won was the dunk contest. He did a three sixty double pump reverse slam. It was epic All of us freshmen got on our feet and flicked off the seniors. I had a few classes with him too he was a really awesome Person.
Jordan and richardson are the only dunkers who really struck a pose while dunking, which gave their dunks a certain accent. They are also the only ones that understood the illusion given when the body is twisted a certain way and at a certain time in the air. Carter lavigne and the other guy who ppl say got robbed didnt have this quality even though they are all amazing dunkers. Richardsons last dunk is one of the best and most beautiful dunks i have ever seen from any dunker, nba or outside the nba, and its never really mentioned.
J rich one of the greatest to ever play the game it's sad to see him retire he was a beast I was just thinking bout him until I got a notification off bleacher report that he retired still unbelievable he is still young
Who is here after the 24 dunk contest? Look at how simple it was back then 22 years ago. But the dunks and dunkers were all way better. I love that spinning wheel to get the next dunk feature.
i was in a tournament with a bunch of great players, including lebron james, he was a senior i was a junior, and my team watched this at the hotel, a lot of fun that night, one of the best dunkers for sure.
Vince Carter - G.O.A.T NBA Dunker Dominique Wilkins - Best Power NBA Dunker Michael Jordan - Most Graceful NBA Dunker Zach Lavine - Best One Legged NBA Dunker Jason Richardson - Best Technical NBA Dunker Dr. J - Best to ever start Dunk creativity in the NBA Spudd Webb - Best Shortest NBA Dunker Aaron Gordon - Best bigman dunker to ever do one of the best dunks in a contest
Very underrated dunker him jsmoove, hakim warrick, jrich,kmart,demsnd mason, gerald wallace, ste francis, the matrix, amare,baron davis,maggete, dmiles, stromile swift.in the 2000s
I'm a diehard Warriors fan, i'm so disappointed . Jason Richardson still my favorite Warrior ever. He's the entire reason I am a Warriors fan. I get so mad when I talk to other Warriors "fans" and they have no idea who this guy or Monta, Baron, Al Harrington Matt Barnes, etc. I will probably never be able to afford good tickets again only the rich kids of Silicon Valley CEO and the Apple /Google tech firm workers and their family will be able to go see games...
The most underrated dunker ever!!
Not really
Underrated? *laughs*
How can be underrated, he is 2x champs
Chag Channel he is. A lot of people don’t put him in the top 5
@@ht82smash42 nobody never talk about it
Most underrated dunker in NBA history IMO. J-Rich could flat out throw down the hammer.
Like Kenny say you don't need the name... u need the game. Jason Richardson was a guy that ppl didnt know he could dunk like crazy like that until the dunk contest.
Jay Anderson anybody who watched j rich at michigan state knew he could do some stuff

oneyedthing One thing about J richs performance is that it didnt had the surprise factor needed but i agree he is up there

Savage Kenny Smith
Burning chuck since 2003 😂😂😂
+Ralph North It was 2002 when he said that. 😐
HAHAHAHAA
His performance was and is still underrated. Him Vs Carter would have been insane.
too bad it was derailed by vince's unfortunate 'jumper's knee'
Last dunk was ridiculous, seemed to torqued his body out of nowhere midair
For me what really sets him apart from the group is ...
nobody else just be chillin talkin mess to his boys one second, then all of a sudden spin around and pull off a classic dunk the next.
Much Respect J Rich Spartan Dawg!!!
Underrated AF dunker. Top 5 Dunk contest dunkers imo.
Seeing agent zero in that GSW gear gave me shivers.
For some reason never knew he was a warrior
Chuck: "Im still trynna figure out why you got to be a judge. You over there with some hall of famers"
Jet: "Naw, just a couple guys with some rings."
DAMN.
I love their jerseys...and that Reebok ATR, just classic.
I like that how only runs for 2-3 steps on some of his dunks. Almost like he's just bs around, and all of the sudden he's pulling out all kinds of magical shit in the middle of the air.
to this day, the absolute most underrated dunker. Everything Jrich did was effortless..
the cleanest dunker with straight legs and sticks this landing....superb!
Throwing down those nasty windmills in the Reebok X-beams just takes me back to a time and place.
5:57 Kenny: he can do it off of 2 then”
Charles: “From the free throw line?!?!”
🤣🤣🤣🤣
the nba used to be so hood
@@Shiftnlift lmfaoooo
Long have I WAITED 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@Shiftnlift dayum bro his boyfriend gonna come get you for that
@@Shiftnlift savage bro😂😂
IG and Twitter ruined it all
The two dunks that J-Rich did for his final dunks in 2002 and 2003 are two of the all time best in the competition.
Yes, his last dunk here has never been attempted by another dunker, that's so insane and original.
The most underrated dunker in the NBA. I was always amazed of how he executed his dunks.
He isn’t underrated dummie
Came back to see this again. Thanks for your great memories J-Rich
Jason Richardson slam dunk is underrated.....
"That dunk had the flu" lmaooo omg
This was 20 years ago yet still better than this year's dunk contest.
One of the best dunk hands down
That last dunk should be 60
Agreed !
fightnight14 this is 2002 dude that shit was unheard of back then
Vince Carter was the best dunker of all time, but J rich was the best Slam dunk contestant ever period
Nah. Vince only competed in one dunk contest to J-Rich's 3. J-Rich spent all year planing what dunks he would do, while Vince made his up on the spot. If Vince lived for the dunk contest and planed all year, and if Vince was in three dunk contests, Vince would have made J-Rich look stupid.
ben1ben2ben1 Vince is better
Dont listen to those trolls at the top of this comment^ "J rich spend all year planning"...."Vince made up his on the spot"... LOLL
@@TNMUSlC 'Made his up on the spot" 😂😂😂😂😂
Best and smoothest windmill dunker ever in dunk contest
Wilkins is number one.
Rip Craig didn’t expect to shed a tear when I clicked on this
whenever chuck orders chicken, he orders 2 legs. he's just not comfortable eating 1 leg
😂😂😂
one of the most beautiful 360s
First dunk was so clean
That wheel was the stupidest idea ever. Every year they do something stupid that messes with the formula of the dunk contest.
i like the wheel
realm316 How about the internet giving him a 9?
the internet is stupid...
I agree. The fuckin dumbest idea in the history of the allstar weekend. I hated this one. It’s like the dunkers are forced to showcase their worse. We wanna see their best.
The Wheel would work better now. Come on, stop criticizing and appreciate.
"he's just not comfortable jumping off one leg" ... LOL how many times did chuck say that
Say what?
true,,,not comfortable jumping off 1 leg
thats why vince is the best....not everybody can dunk on both leg and one leg
🤣🤣🤣🤣
it is even in an interview j rich said that
4:20
Barkley: "I'm still tryna figure it why you a jude, you over there with some hall of famers"
Kenny: "Naw just some guys with a couple rings" lmaooooo
They. Probably took it in the parking lot 😂
The last dunk was crazy. I can't stop lookin at it
How is that windmill not as good as Dominique's? I think it's better! There seemed to be more extension which makes it tougher
8:58 "what did bugs bunny say? Ughhhhhh that's all folks" LMFAO Shit had me crying haha, Chuck is too damn funny
You hear Kenny say " nah just some guys with some rings" to chuck???!!?!?!?!?! LMAO
Damn That's Savage Hold This L Barkley You Fucked Up
Soon as I saw Craig Sager my heart dropped 😢😞😔 R.I.P. ☝🏼 SagerStrong

21 years old and he looks like the same this year
Vince Carter gets a lot of praise, as he should, but JR was that dude too for multiple years
the winning dunk is so underrated, defies gravity, and looks painful like fight night 2004 ragdoll physics
Jordan and richardson are the only dunkers who really struck a pose while dunking, which gave their dunks a certain accent.

Vince Carter would like a word with you
Oaktowns finest ,,JR - most underrated player period .
that windmill reverse dunk tho....
Love the old format. Entertaining.
Kenny Smith commentary is legendary 😂.
The most underrated dunker in the NBA....dude was up there with Vince Carter. J-Rich’s dunks were beyond it’s time
Most entertaining dunker
2020 and bow wow is still left hangin'
J rich one of the greatest to ever play the game it's sad to see him retire he was a beast I was just thinking bout him until I got a notification off bleacher report that he retired still unbelievable he is still young
You drunk
Juan Sean Vince Carter Vince Carter UFC Vince Carter dunk contest
I love the NBA
This format was kinda dope. All the dunks have been done, so you then you do it.
kenny "he can do it off of two" chuck from the free throw line lol classic
That wheel .....wtf. I remember watching this live, dam im getting old :\
anyone notice bow wow, he has on the like mike jersey at 8:49 lmao i think they were filming
yep lol
did you guys notice him trying to get a high five from Jrich but he didn't respond? poor bow D:
Yup, cuz they used footage from this dunk contest, which his character was in. :D
was that part scripted though? lol
LIKE MIKE.. LA KNIGHTS LOL.
Man he was cold
last dunk was sick
Who is here after the 24 dunk contest?
Look at how simple it was back then 22 years ago. But the dunks and dunkers were all way better. I love that spinning wheel to get the next dunk feature.
VC is the god of dunks
The dunk contest would've been awesome if all the JRs would've been able to compete against each other. JR Rider, JR Richardson & JR Smith.
J Rich my favourite Dunker at the Time, actually of all time Period ,
10:40 - that moment Kawhi Leonard took notes on how to laugh
The goat dunker
The insanity after vence held it down for 2 dunk contests that brought that feel back might be the last pure ones his last 2
2000,2001,2002 2005 are the best slam dunk contests for me
Really Used To Do All These Dunks Jumping Off Both Feet
Great Athlete ❤
i was in a tournament with a bunch of great players, including lebron james, he was a senior i was a junior, and my team watched this at the hotel, a lot of fun that night, one of the best dunkers for sure.
I was at an orgy with dennis Rodman watching this
"and Gilbert is such a funny guy" ........ (brings guns into the locker room 2 months later) :D
steve peterson haha
Wrong
Wasn't 2 months later, stupid.

Very underrated dunker him jsmoove, hakim warrick, jrich,kmart,demsnd mason, gerald wallace, ste francis, the matrix, amare,baron davis,maggete, dmiles, stromile swift.in the 2000s
Jason Richardson has aesthetic dunks.
ave to agree with you completely my 2 favorite dunkers off all time vince carter and Josh smith
One of the nastiest Dunkers of all time J-Rich!!
Go Golden State Warriors.
most creative dunker ever
+goolizap VC is :D
Oohwee I almost forgot how cold J-Rich was
Honestly, i have never seen Jason Richardson's face PROPERLY.
2002? More like 1982 with that quality.. Look so retro i think i just aged backwards.
Best dunk contest dunker ever
Goat dunker.
Sick style
The freethrow line dunk is embarrassing
However the final dunk is something that well deserved winning a dunk contest
He's the Goat
I'm a diehard Warriors fan, i'm so disappointed . Jason Richardson still my favorite Warrior ever. He's the entire reason I am a Warriors fan. I get so mad when I talk to other Warriors "fans" and they have no idea who this guy or Monta, Baron, Al Harrington Matt Barnes, etc. I will probably never be able to afford good tickets again only the rich kids of Silicon Valley CEO and the Apple /Google tech firm workers and their family will be able to go see games...
Yugi Motou And heck, even a young Curry. Not the showoff Curry we see today. Young Curry was crazy
Yeah true 2007 Warriors were fun. Would've been fun to see them in the WCF.
Charles Barkley been hating on the Warriors since forever haha
Richardson was a beast!
