Nique was a beast. They're showing a lot of dunks from him, but he was all around a great scorer including midrange shots and some 3s. If you watch some of his games or highlights, you'll see he was very versatile as a scorer - not just dunks. The Hawks were a good team but the thing is that period was so talent-rich that the competition was fierce. Magic and Larry had 5 and 3 rings respectively and those two were the superstars of the 80s. Here's a brief list of some of Dominque's competition: Jordan, Dr J, Magic, James Worthy, Kareem, Larry Bird, Kevin McHale, Charles Barkley, Moses Malone, Isaiah Thomas, and Hakeem Olajuwon.
I watched him live many times in the Omni. He could leap out of the gym, but what made him deadly was quickness. You put a hand and him anywhere and he spins and is gone.
Remember the guys who he is dunking is 7ft and up! Both he and Jordan was dunking on 7footers! And the entire front line was 6’10 and up. It ain’t no 7 no more! That what made them the greatest

I'm Glad They Got These Videos Because Nobody Will Remember How Great Dominique Wilkins We're. Better Than Jordan 1984-88 Era
He was such an explosive dunker, I don’t think any one had more put back dunks

He’s still going up when he dunks most of these..that’s what’s scary.
He really makes it look so easy. Crazy he never won a ring. Also, thx for watching, please consider subbing. It means a lot to me 😁
Those Hawks teams of the '80s were consistent 50 game winners...they just couldn't get by the Celtics or Pistons
Nobody dunked with the same ferocity as 'Nique. Shawn Kemp came closest.
@TonyMenino. Please react to Michael Jordan’s Historic Bulls Mixtape (the Jordan Vault)
dont we have enough Jordan coverage?
