this shit is crazy, how many years has MJ been retired and he still never ceases to amaze me
I remember watching him in 96' and saying to myself, he is the greatest ever
@@robertwieczorek5838 I said exactly the same in 1988...and started to play basketball for the next 30 years
imagine this type of aggression in todays league....
@@robertwieczorek5838
I was born in 96 and i say he is the greatest.
@@joshuajack9209 I remember 96' watching Jordan. I remember 1988 as a kid hearing about Jordan. Then kobe, then lebron, now giannis
He played basketball like he was a super hero
He was a superhero... He really was.
As teammate John Paxson said "I imagine him playing with us is like us playing with high school kids."
Pax nailed it.
He was mine for sure 💯 🏀
Look where jordan takes off with 2feet compare to other 2feet dunkers
Jordan best all around athlete in NBA history.
Not all around, He is a two way player. A defensive beast and a offensive machine on both ends of the court.
that would be wilt
Wilt
High school players doing these dunks, best 2 foot dunkers are Domonique Wilkins and Vince Carter.
Lebron is a better athlete, not a better player but a better athlete
Jordan was incredible. His combination of incredible athletic ability, great fundamentals, anticipation, hard work ethic, sheer will and determination is what allowed him to sustain such success over a long period of time. And we can't forget that he took 2 years off during peak years of athletic ability.
H me had the perfect basketball body...good muscle mass ....shoulder width...stride length....hand size.....nobody was made more perfect than him..also his hardwork
90% of the two foot jumps are poster dunks. WOW! This video should shut a lot of people up. GOAT.
Excellent analysis of MJ's jumping ability. From personal experience I was great off one leg, and average off two. This is definitely part of what makes him the G.O.A.T.
The truly full package... even his landing after a dunk was smooth ...
So glad you posted this, BIF. I was always amazed at how well MJ could take off effortlessly in either jump mode. Dude is not from this planet, fuh rill! Additionally, MJ was a true basketball innovator. His kiss the rim dunk allowed him to go both horizontal and vertical off 2-feet. I never observed any other dedicated 2-feet jumpers execute from that side angle like MJ. He was a master of propioception and kinesiology. Much like the way he would dip the shoulder of his dribbling hand to elude his defender. I mean, MJ was already lightning quick (he ran the 40 in 4.3 secs). That little shoulder dip made him even faster and more elusive. MJ also perfected that reverse lay up where he would slap the wrist of the hand holding the ball to give enough momentum to make the shot. Who else even does this today?! Dude is not from this planet, fuh rill!
also what some people fail to realize is he could also jump pretty far out for 2 ft dunks as well. Just look as some on this video, he is outside the paint and jumping off both feet and soaring as if it was off one. The GOAT forever
Still feel so thankful for pointing out and analyzing how special Jordan's athleticism was, is and probably will be.
Seen all the dunks from all the players in this video and what I noticed is Mike's 1 or 2 foot leaper dunks are just so beautiful. He looks like he's flying gracefully. Mesmerizing. 😳 On top of that, he's fast like a cat and light as a feather.
Jordan's two foot leap is almost a two foot/one foot hybrid. He almost always turned his body, touched his right foot and then quickly transitioned his weight and momentum to his left foot out in front to lean into the jump. His feet were rarely side by side when he jumped like a true two foot vertical leaper.
3:56 insane
There was nothing he couldn't do. Truly amazing. GOAT...
never will there be another athlete like him
at long last somebody put this video this is one of many reason why mj is a great leaper but few people realize this thanks for posting this ball is life a big thumbs up this is one of many reason why most of us can't really understand this kids today why they are still comparing today's player to mj i will say this again mj and wilt is on another planet as basketball players i hope you can find a video of mj shooting fadeaway using his left hand i swear to god i saw mj do that. again ball is life thanks for posting this
Andrei Donato lebron just made two left handed shots game 3 against Toronto. One was from the foul line. Watch the highlights
hyfyre lebron is 3-5 making a left handed shot won’t save his legacy
Great video and explanation, although I'd like to add one more thing. He's also great at leaping off either leg. This is perhaps more significant because he doesn't have to gather himself to jump. This allows him to jump of any position, angle, move, etc. There's been instances in which Bron had to gather himself after a move, and this allows the defense to contest him, or messes up his rhythm/timing. MJ would be able to finish strong because he could jump off either foot at an elite level, along with what the video presented.
Great vids, keep em coming.
yes i agree he can do it with either Leg
Da G.o.a.t
i like to call it the speed of leaping. he basically has extra springs on his feet that it doesnt matter how and where he start the jump, he would have enough lift to finish the basket. he simply doesn't need to bend his knees much ( gathering in your word). this ability is then combined with his huge hand to allow jordan to be able to dunk over big men in traffic much more efficiently than kobe and lebron can ever do.
Pippen is the one who inspired him to jump off the opposite leg. He learned that from Pippen
000lowkey opposite leg Kobe has Mj faded
LeBron is an average at best two foot jumper.
CLEARLY the greatest ever!!!
Greatest ever. Fan boys are delusional.
Wow really great video, I watched MJ play growing up and he was absolutely amazing as a basketball player and as an athlete. I mean two times three peat and countless records that he broke and this was back when players could hand check without and so on!
Good comments.
THE GREATEST ATHLETE IN THE WORLD. HANDS DOWN!!!G.O.A.T!!!!
Nope.i Love MJ but the greatest athlete was Bo Jackson!!
Bill
Jose Zuniga He means greatest "player" to play any sport. He's not necessarily referring to "athlete". In summary, Jordan was better at basketball than Bo Jackson was at football and baseball.
In addition to being the best combo 1 or 2-foot leaper, Jordan was also easily - EASILY - the best leaper off a quick hop step in history. He barely needed to even flex his legs to get major vertical and jam on people, and he could do it off a hop step in any direction (forwards, sideways etc.). Just a super explosive leaper.
Excellent point. He probably had the GOAT natural explosion. He could explode off very little knee bend.
My thoughts exactly, for years i have been said that, thank you!
Excellent. I always understood that this ability was one of the many things that made Michael special; nice to see someone really break it down. Salute!
~ Michael forever
3:05 Jordan traveled while in mid-air. Signed, Lebron fan.
Great video dude. Jordan is all I can think about whenever I see basketball being played, or just hearing a ball bouncing. It's like someone took everything b-ball related, compressed it into one folder & labeled it JORDAN! Thanks for the new insite.
Just some of the MJ'S in your face Dunks!... And I love it!
The Legacy of MICHAEL JORDAN that who never end👑👑👑👑👑👑🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆
ON MY KNEES...HANDS DOWN.....nothing more to say..its an honor....truly the GOAT
those dunks gives me goosebumps. 2 foot leaping far and leaning in the air!
I get teary eyed watching. I was lucky enough to grow up in Illinois during the Jordan reign. I was in college. I didn't realize how good he was at the time--- aka, we'll never see another like him.
And to hear some "fans" disparage this guy unnecessarily ..... Sour Grapes! Yeah you too, Scottie!
Good Video. Everytime someone upload a video of the GOAT MJ, I need to watch it. The perfect basketball player. Able to do whatever he want on the court. He will never be forgotten.
What people never seemed to mentioned was that mike jumped very ..VERY QUICKLY..Kobe is not a particularly quick jumper...he has a lot of wind in his jump in his movements;very linear...with mike you blink and he jumped so quickly along with jumping very high...impossible to deal with. Mike had one of the most explosive jumping abilities I've ever seen...not only did he jump very high...but MOST IMPORTANTLY THE MAN JUMPED VERY ....VERY QUICKLY. ...his fast twitch muscles are phenomenal..that's why he could just stand in front of defenders and dunk right in their face...he jumps like a cat...very quick...they blink ...too late...no time to react to him. It will be along long time before we see anyone with the physical gifts skill level and mental mastery of the game like mike.
Excellent points. MJ could explode off the floor with little knee bend/wind up. I plan on doing a vid of such examples. MJ definitely was a mutant in terms of quick twitch muscle fibers.
Always lands with perfect balance too.
this is what make him so special and gifted.. nobody has this kind of special.. only MJ.. he also has the handsize advantage.. mentality,, footwork,, and his airness,, many players might want to copy him but they can't copy MJ's mentality, footwork, airness, handsize and a team leader.. that's why he is the goat
I agree 100% Actions speaks louder than words.5🌟
And this is what makes him the greatest dunker, in addition to being the greatest player of all time.
This video is just amazing, I just stopped to say this, a big reason MJ was so special dunking, he was one of the most unique player who could do both sooooooo soooo well, so beautifull... we will always love u Mj. Thanks for this HUGE AMAZING VIDEO, THANKS BROOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
This is a very good explanation of showing the difference between one foot and two feet, because alot of young people don't understand
Jordan 1st to perfect the left foot lead 2 ft takeoff. Dunking with the right hand it's basically a jump hook: your body is between the ball and defender, and you are protected from being pancaked by defense.
Huge hands helped that as well
He did perfect volleyball spike take off with last two steps.
Jordan has made we couldnt MOVE ON...every a new raising star...a new icon..always compared by him...Jordan has made his own standard!!
Once again Jordan is the 🐐
I've always said this very thing to people but no one seems to understand. I'll be sharing this video to provide examples. Growing up and watching MJ play, I like every kid, I
emulated him. As I learned the game and got really good at basketball, I switched from my default off 1 foot leaping to 2 foot leaping thanks to MJ, Kemp, and McDyess. In my prime I was getting just as high off two feet as I was with 1, and could dunk 10' rim at 14 years old, despite only being 5'8.5. This always gave me a huge advantage when rebounding, blocking, and driving to the hole. To me, this is a technique I'll be teaching my son so he can dominate street ball like his dad did.
Thanks for making videos like this one showcasing & distinguishing mJ's greatness above the other great leapers in NBA history. Yes , above Vince ...sorry Vince lol. There's a alley oop he caught during his rookie season against the bucks where he didn't have much of a running start , went up with two hands and he's near chin level with the rim. Incomparable Freakish athletic ability to say the least. I still think his vertical leap was over "48....and that was in the mid 80's. 🙌🏽😎
I think Zach lavine is actually a great example of a dude who is ELITE at jumping off both plants. Also pre-injury zion would also give jordan a run for his money for the "greatest combo 1/2 foot leaper". Kobe and prime westbrook are other examples of a dudes who jumped out the gym on both plants. Regardless, Jordan was definitely special in his ability to use both types of plants.
Zach Lavine isnt that good off two. And rarely is able to dunk on people, regardless of plant. Zion is still very two foot dominate, doesnt dunk on players off one, but good with it in transition. Kobe and Westbrook are two great exa of players that are great at both and dunk on players with both, but they cant jump like MJ, I think Vince deserves a mention too. Only guy that truly competes with MJ in this category.
Kobe never had that much of a vert
Excelent, excelent, excelent, collection of dunks!!!!
This will never ever happen again
wow! superb observation!! its as if.. michael chooses what type of jump he has to use to beat the defenders... if he wants to beat him by speed, he uses one foot.. if he wants to out jump him.. he goes off two feet! great job on the video!!!
I never even took this into account. One legged vs two legged dunking. The man is the GOAT
4:55, pretty much a simple leap from both feet... Unbelievable!
wwbdwwbd his aerodynamic mechanics are insane, that leg thrust at the end of the dunk to get more momentum.
The very first two leg highlight against the Heat was just stupid man. Just picked his way thru, and handed that thang like he was a big man. G.O.A.T.
That was indeed craziness. Shakes two very good defenders and an easy spring over the top of a 7 foot all time great center and shot blocker.
Damm I love this video. Jordan owes us many more highlights from his retirement years. I will never forgive him for those.
Watching Jordan fly thru the air is beautiful it's art
And he can 1 hand it, 2 hand it, twist to the left or right. Even have his back to the bucket and still score. No limits.
Excellent point that I never considered. Yet again why Mike is still considered the goat.
One of the reasons MJ is the goat.
thanks for the video!! MJ is God gifted.
only mj can do the leaner dunks...
The last dunk where he's flying to the basket and dunks the ball and landing in a sorta single motion and when he lands and starts running is beautiful... It's like all one slow motion dunk then speeds back up to reality... Amazing...
Perfect explanation,never seen other guy who can do that two foot leaper with no momentum and ending up dunking in front of a big man
The reason most people are either one foot or two foot dunkers is because of how their brains are wired naturally. MJ being able to excel at both on a whim is one of the greatest athletic phenomenon that contributed to his greatness and scoring ability.
This is very good and usefull video. Thanks for it.
Great video. I’ve been saying this since MJ’s playing days and battles with Dominique.
I've always been amazed by Jordan's ability to leap off one or two feet with equal effectiveness. That's a very rare ability, and it added to his rare ability to improvise in an instant.
Nice music. Nice editing. Nice video. MJ The Goat. Subbed
I've always considered the ability to jump off one or two feet very important. And being able to jump off either foot is very special. Not just when it comes to playing, but especially dunking. That said, I think while Vince Carter was primarily a two foot dunker, he could also jump off one foot very well, he could dunk from the free throw line easily and had many good dunks off one. A better example would've been Jason Richardson, he couldn't jump off one foot at all. And with Zach Lavine, he's also able to jump off two feet really well and get his head near the rim, he just feels more comfortable off one. Lebron on the other hand does not jump well off two, there's a clear 10-12 inch difference in how high he gets off one vs two. Westbrook can jump off either with ease. Blake Griffin and Gerald Green are other examples that primarily jump off two but can also jump really well off one. Zion Williamson might be the craziest, he is obviously insane off two, but can go off one with either foot and dunk with either hand. That ability will give him a big advantage when it comes to defense and rebounding, he has the potential to be a better shot blocker and rebounder than Lebron
I agree with all of what you’ve said. You’ve watched these guys closely. So have I. Also Donovan Mitchell a great dunker off two feet but very different off one. Dennis smith Jr can go off either and now Zion is free throw line dunking off one and posterising off two as well. He really is a freak of nature
ETW4life Westbrook is someone who can jump off either and off two as well. He’s an incredible athlete. Prime d rose could get up off one foot too. T-Mac, Kobe too
pretty good insight
good observation & nice video
Just another aspect of his game that people fail to understand! A 6 ft 6 guard who dunked over 7ft centers of his ERA!
2:55 dunked on Laimbeer from the free throw line diagonally
MJ's dunk over Ewing after curling back around Oakley is the best. There's another angle out there that shows even better how great that dunk was.
Exactly! The most complete player in the game. He doesn't get credit for being fundamentally proficient, but he could do everything any coach needed him to do as a weapon on both ends & as a facilitator as needed. He actually changed the whole view of being an NBA calibre player. He entered a league of alcoholics who used the length of the season to play their way into shape, but he came in ready to compete. He forced organizations & the Association to catch up with him & Nike & Gatorade. Today's marketing STRATEGY is the offspring of what the rest of the NBA had to catch up to. Before MJ, it was Michael Jackson who was the most marketable, but it took the MJ to make the game a truly International Spectacle. That is still the modern marketing model in 2022. LeBron can never be the 🐐 because his impact on the game hasn't expanded or altered the game, internationally, nor has he forced change in HOW the game is played. In that respect, Steph would have a superior claim on 🐐, since he has EVERYONE believing they can shoot 50% from 3 & the rules encourage a 3pt barrage over everything else. The modern game is a COMMERCIAL construct, and the 💰 has influenced whistles that make it impure.
I must give LeBron his credit, as well. He's laid the blueprint for today's players to follow in controlling where they play, and how quickly they can increase their pay through shorter contracts.
He also had the biggest hands for a guard.... that added an advantage control the ball on the floor as well the air.
His dunks are almost like he’s flying. When other guys start coming back down, it seems that he’s still elevating. I have never seen anyone else anything like him.
Never seen anyone who can explode like MJ.
All anyone needs to do is get together with their crew, watch and pay attention to everything MJ contributed, creatively added, and the brutally physical punishment he endured, embraced, then used to fuel his competing nature thus taking the game to the highest level,
Mike had that "fuck yo' life" type of in-game dunk ability.
one would never notice these significant things without having someone to explain them. but after analyzing them u get better idea of why MJ was the best ever, and hardly there is going to be a player lije him anymore
I never noticed this before. Cool vid. Thanks for making it.
And it wasnt just his takeoff that was special. Once he was in the air, if he had to spin, reach under or around, or fake to evade defenders he could do it while still keeping his balance. And if there wasnt an open shot he could double clutch, hold, and then shoot after he was descending since his hang time kept him above court longer than his defenders. And his legs did some crazy pumps, scissors, and things to counterweight the jukes and fakes that his upper body was doing. Its no wonder that the Pistons' basic defensive strategy against him was to just do anything neccesary to prevent him from take-off. Cant touch Jordan. BTW, another thing I liked about him his that he was a class sportsman and(crazy-big) role model who put up, took his hard licks, worked like crazy, and didnt Le-flop nor whine. And he certainly never sprayed his personal politics nor views all over his fans.
I submit Shawn Kemp as another candidate. Especially rare for a 6 10 big man to have explosive 2 footed AND 1 footed leaping abilities.
3:56 he's running at full speed and jumps off 2 feet near the free throw line, unlike some players off if 2 foot jump, they have to slow down and gather then go up. He uses his 2 foot jump and speed for max height and length! sick finish. Insane.
come on, LBJ is not a 1 foot leaper, he is a 6 step leaper!
I love this beat you use for certain clips. :)
No one will EVER be able to dunk as good as Jordan. Ever..
He is really very gifted player.
This is right on the money.
Total badass video. MJ the best!
This video is so good!
Look at the air! Look at the hang time! Whooooo, hoooooooo!!!
whoever made this video got this from ME!
4:21 and 4:44 oh my.
4:23 too. Heck..all of them lol
MJ was the best at EVERYTHING he did.
greatest of all time...
Nice breakdown of the dunk... I was taught to dunk with 2 feet in jr high, since im shorter and to use my left hand since my left arm is longer even though I'm right handed
This is a great video
Great video! Vince could do both just like Jordan. J-Rich would have been a better example of a two foot only jumper. But that's a damn good video anyways man!
True. It is easy to jump one foot and archive a vertical of 35-40 inch above the ground. And it is unusual to find 2 foot leapers who have at least 35 inch vertical jump.
With those huge hands he can just dunk off the dribble.
MJ really built different he had it all. He could've averaged a triple double for a season if he wanted, there was a point early in his career where Collins put him as pg and he had like 10 triple doubles in 12 games but he didn't like playing point so he went back to sg
11 in 12 games.
This to me is the main argument for Jordan being a better player than LBJ, Dr. J, Wilt, Kareem, Magic. Jordan seemed to have more tools at his disposal and could adapt to any situation almost instantly. He had virtually no weaknesses.
Lebron is one of the greatest leapers off one leg, but looks awkward off two legs sometimes, and doesn't get near as high. Dr. J could jump off one or two, but is most remembered for gliding off of one leg and his ability to control the ball like very few players with his massive hands.
Jordan also always stayed low in his stance when he was in attack mode, he could explode from this position with one motion upwards which made his drives to the basket very quick. A lot of times he has a full lean off his first step, like a 100 meter sprinter coming out of the blocks, he is almost falling forward to gain distance on the defender and makes his first step quicker and able to cover more distance, then he explodes from that forward momentum making it look almost effortless.

Agree with most of what you said except about Wilt I can see Jordan as the greatest of all time but I personally have Wilt and what you said about Jordan you can apply to Wilt , it was nothing Wilt couldn't do on a court besides maybe hit free throws with regularity and on the occasion that he did he scored 100 points leading the lead in rebounds , Asist , Scoring , Minutes , Field goal percentage and I'm sure if they were counted in his day he would of lead in blocks as well I feel Jordan's domination of the guard position is only equalled by Wilt's domination of the center postion but never the less great comment on Jordan's game.
user2176
Also as it relates to Jordan his body cordination is unparalleled but what I feel your getting at is his core strength which would explain his ability to hang in the air or finish through traffic that's a rare combination it's rare to have either actually but almost unheard of to have both along with Giant hands it's almost hysterical how much more gifted he was then his peers
I won't argue with you about Wilt, he was the most dominant athlete maybe ever in any sport, 7'1 guys are not supposed to be that athletically gifted, he could run and jump like a deer, not to mention how f'n physically strong and imposing he was. The only knock on Wilt, is the fact that he was a center, it's almost unfair because it's hard to say that centers are the GOAT because they don't have the overall basketball skills as required by a guard or a small forward.
Guards out of necessity have to become skilled at getting to the basket somehow, where as centers become skilled at ways to gain and maintain position in the post area. With Wilt and Shaq there is basically nothing you can do to keep them out of the area they want to position themselves. Their work is mostly done before the ball even gets to them. People mock Wilt's one move where he just reaches out and finger rolls the ball in almost right over the defender, they say he would never be able to do that in today's NBA, or Shaq would swat that into the 5th row. But they forget how big he was, once he had the defender on his hip that close to the basket, he could literally shoot it anyway he wanted to, the defender already lost the battle before the ball ever got to Wilt's hands.
If you leave stats out of the conversation, and look at Wilt and Jordan only in terms of basketball athletism and technique, then it's hard to pick Wilt over Jordan, only because Jordan had to develop greater ball handling skills to survive at his size. At 6'6'' Jordan had point guard ball handling skills and quickness, with track and field level running and jumping ability. Isiah Thomas also talked about it in one interview, when he first played against Jordan on the USA team in 84, that it was how quick he was that really surprised him.
I think you are spot on about the core strength, and Jordan's body control. I remember watching one of Magic's mid summer games, I think the 89 one, and Jordan just made everything look so easy and effortless, total control and confidence in his movement and skills. He seemed to approach basketball like Bruce Lee approached martial arts, to achieve total mastery of technique, perfection of the fundamentally necessary skills, and a dedication to surpassing any perception of physical or mental limitations.
user2176
Solid Comment and I agree Jordan's position demanded more skills as a perimeter player I think on some level though Wilt's domination is held against him before Jordan a big man was more valued then a guard , guards were looked at as interchangeable and it's a testament to Jordan's greatness how he changed how the position was viewed and played but Wilt's Stamina which I feel is a underated quality in his game , The man literally one season played every minute of every game and averaged somewhere upwards of 44 per game for a career that's unheard of and to be a man of such stature being able to not only dominate the boards
( more possessions ) influence how players penetrated the paint and being probably outside of wes unseld and bill walton the best outlet passer ever someone who can command that type of attention on offense makes everyone else a threat to score due to the defense focusing on him so much imagine that in today's game with knock down 3 point shooters also on offense Wilt's game was very diverse from fade away bank shots to fingerolls to hook shots being able to finish with either hand all in all as much as I love Jordan and I can't and won't downplay any part of Michaels game I can't go against a man that duriable that dominating and that multi dimensional can't bet against the big dipper
Wilt 1 Jordan 1A
There other argument in Wilt's favor is the lack of footage of him when he was young and at his most dominant. Most of the footage I've seen is of older Wilt with bad knees, playing for the Lakers with Goodrich and West taking a lot of outside shots.
The one game where its old Wilt vs. young kareem and Kareem is killing him most of the game, until Wilt gets pissed, and starts getting physical. I think he blocked 3 skyhooks, and just used his strength to get right under the basket and take over the game. It makes you wonder what a young Wilt could do, so frustrating that there is no video footage.
Just wondering, what's your all time team? (5 players plus 1 sixth man)
I got:
C Wilt
PF Russell
SF Dr. J
SG Jordan
PG Magic
6th man LBJ ( would still get starters minutes cause he can sub in for 4 positions)
Dope video!!!!
i ranked mj second to vc as the greatest dunker...now i have to rank him first again..omg...GOAT
stereodrive116 I disagree, this video is misleading as it didn’t show any of Vince’s one footers as if he didn’t have any. That’s mainly what he does now at his age of 41 in the NBA and he also had plenty that come to mind while he was at UNC. But to each his own. I prefer Vince’s and LeBron’s over MJ’s. Not saying they’re better players than MJ, just better dunkers.
@@jesswilson6012 Vince I agree, but not Lebron bro, come on
Volkan haha, I’m talking about 1st time Cav LeBron and Heat LeBron. His dunks were way more powerful and he got up way higher than MJ. I never look at MJ dunk mixes but enjoy LeBrons. Even his chasedown mixes are more exciting to watch than MJ dunks. Yes, he does the dunkman a lot, but I personally think his one foot dunks are better than MJ’s one foot dunks. He’s caught alley oops off the glass opposite hand, jumped over a guys head, had his head over the rim.
Volkan I’ll give MJ mad props for dunking on so many centers tho! He’s definitely not a slouch. Can’t hate on em
@@jesswilson6012 Lebron a better dunker than MJ? Not only he lacks creativity and any kind of semblance of variety in his dunks, but his resume of posters is quite possibly the poorest in history for a guy of that size, volume of baskets and athleticism. Especially if you consider he mostly plays in the era of open lanes, low level centers and no big PFs. His most famous dunk is one on old Terry, who is a midget. I can definetily think of a couple of Kevin Johnson, John Starks' dunks that are more impressive than any single Lebron dunk.
i never noticed that his sideways two foot jump is a adaptation to allow him to jump off two feet at high speeds. to cover ground horizontally off a two foot jump. fucking amazing
