Exactly... 1984 orlando Wooldridge did it more difficult if I remember correctly. Brought the ball with his right hand through the legs from his backside to his front towards his left hand to jam it left handed. Maybe I remember that incorrectly. It just looked less spectacular because he's tall.
That first dunk was so underrated its silly. Dude is 6'5, barely runs, and jumps from outside the box. Just explodes. Basically freezes in front of the rim with hos head over it. If he grew up in this era, hed be shitting on alot of dudes And these dudes had to make 3 in 90 seconds. They started it all.
dialtone21 Exactly! He did it in college in 93 so I was ready for him to do it when he got to the NBA. It was the first time someone put it between the legs! Rider was such an underrated player.
I remember watching the draft and immediately after being drafted Rider promised he would take the NBA slam dunk championship. At first I thought he was overly confident, but immediately after his BTL dunk, I knew he was just legit…and confident.
Alameda, CA. Fuck yea JR. Rocked his jersey when I was a kid, saw him in Alameda in a red range Rover with a hot chick. He gave my little ass daps and said nice jersey. Never forget that.
He was an injury replacement for Harold Miner. Why? Still not sure. But young Allan could at least get a little more than the Knicks iteration. His performance - ruclips.net/video/WYZy08waJxM/видео.html&ab_channel=RyanVanDusen
@@Swove2204 I watched his dunks already and they were awful so I was wondering why he was in there. Even as a replacement, Allan was NOT a dunker, even in his Pistons' days.lol Matter of fact his Piston teammate Grant Hill should have participated, since he was explosive and had a 40 inch vertical.
@@Joseph-lz5er Yeah I didn't mean to overstate Houston's hops. There were probably a dozen guys I would have picked ahead of him that year and his performance has been a long-running joke of sorts (the header dunk, in particular); I just meant he tended to have a little bit of a quicker bounce than many who only knew him as a sniper in New York may have realized. Nothing fancy, but he was liable to do this early on - ruclips.net/video/aqEHcibkQPU/видео.html&ab_channel=RyanVanDusen As it relates to Grant Hill, he actually WAS scheduled to participate in the 1996 NBA Slam Dunk Contest (in San Antonio, won by Brent Barry) but withdrew days prior with a sore wrist. www.spokesman.com/stories/1996/feb/07/around-the-nba/
@@thatdude1354 So it's easier for Gordon to dunk higher then Rider. So i don't think Gordon his dunks were better perse because it's easier for him because of his reach.
@@hielogogo9109 not it doesn't make it easier it makes it harder in a way. The dunks that Aaron Gordon did require more time in the air and the bigger and heavier you are, the lower your vertical would be thus lower air time.
That's the dumbest shit ive evee heard. And if these guys grew up the same time Lavine did some of them would be shitting on these new guys. Including rider. Bro hes 6'5" and that fiest dunk he barely runs and takes off from outside the dam box and hos head goes over the rim while hes jist hanging in the air. His hops were as good as anyone nowadays. Dunking and practicing dunks have evolved. Idk how you don't see this. People aren't getting more athletic
@@MannyParadisee This is such a dumb argument....The farther you go back the fewer points of reference players had. If you put today's players in the dunk contest and wiped their memories of what came before them they'd be just as dull.
Jesus is our Lord and Savior. Jesus is God in flesh. Jesus is the one true God. We are all sinners and we all fall short of the glory of God. Jesus came to the Earth and died for sins to be washed away so can make it to Heaven. Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life and the only way to Heaven. U have to do more than just a believe in Jesus to make it to Heaven tho. U have to do the Lord's will. These are the things the word of God told us we have to do be forgiven for our sins, saved, and make it to Heaven. Accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior. Repent from your sins. Get baptized in the name of Jesus. Have a deep relationship with Jesus. Love everyone Forgive others Obey God's commandments. Speak the word of God to the world. Do the Lord's will until the end. There is nothing more important than God. This life is jus temporary but Heaven and Hell is forever. Your true purpose in life is to follow Jesus, have a deep relationship with Jesus, walk with Jesus, learn about Jesus, and lead others to Jesus. God has so many commandments it's 613 of them and it's impossible to obey all of them all the time. U are gonna make mistakes and God knows U can't be perfect that's why Jesus came to the Earth and died for our sins to be washed away. God jus wants U to try your hardest to not sins, to obey his commandments, and to do everything he wants U to do and when U do sin he jus wants U to be honest with him and admit to your sins, ask for forgiveness of your sins, and ask Jesus to help U not give into temptation of sins. Hell wasn't meant for us it was meant for Satan and the other fallen angels. Satan decieved the first humans and caused them to sin and the world become corrupt and most humans choose not to follow Jesus. Satan is decieving people and there are so many people heading to Hell. Satan, the fallen angels, evil spirits, and Satan's followers the Illuminati, the richest families in the world and the Free Masons, they all control the world from the governments, the economy, drug trade, Hollywood, movies, TV, radio, news, science community, schools, and even religion and they are lying to U, decieving U, trying to brainwash U, and trying to keep U from the truth. They don't want U to follow Jesus. Those people are Devil worshippers that sold their soul to the Devil for fortune, fame, and power. They promote sin thru movies TV and music, they try to get U disobey God, they don't want U to follow Jesus, they poison your food water and medicine, and they are trying to create a One World Government that Satan will come as the AntiChrist and will rule the world in the last days. And they are gonna try to make U take the mark of the beast on your forehead or forearm and if U take it U will automatically go to Hell. And they are gonna try to kill U. Religion is being used to confuse people. That's why there is so many different religions and there should only one religion and that's Jesus. Christianity is even doing things wrong. It has many different religions inside one religion and they are all making their own interpretations of the Bible instead of going exactly what the word of God says. When Christianity was started the Romans took several books out the original Hebrew Bible. Most churches and preachers don't speak the full truth of the Bible they are presching false doctrines. Most of them also follow the traditions of men instead of obeying God's commandments. They are celebrating the Sabbath on the wrong day Sunday the first day of the week instead of Saturday the last day of the week. They are baptizing people the wrong way in the name of the Father the Son and the Holy Ghost instead of in the name of Jesus. And alot of them celebrate false Paegan holidays that are satanic. And U don't have to go to church cause Jesus never commanded us to. jesus set his church up on the rock with his disciples and we are suppose to be disciples of Jesus so the us the followers of Jesus is the real church not a building. Church buildings are jus places U can go to praise God, have a fellowship, and learn the word of God but U can do those things anywhere anytime. It's better to make sure U read the Bible yourself and learn the word of God and make sure the church is going exactly of the word of God. If U Love Jesus then U will obey his commandments. U show Jesus U Love him by your actions. Don't live for the worldly things like money, materialistic things, attention, and other stuff, live for Jesus. Dont follow the world follow Jesus. And Jesus is coming back soon.
That’s how it works. Guys like Isaiah Rider come along, nudge the art of the dunk forward, then the people who come after him build off of what he’s laid down, normalizing his techniques in the process.

Orlando Wooldridge was the first player to go between the legs on a dunk contest in 1984
facts.. og Chicago Rim Assassin💯
Fact. Many people don't realise this!
Exactly... 1984 orlando Wooldridge did it more difficult if I remember correctly. Brought the ball with his right hand through the legs from his backside to his front towards his left hand to jam it left handed. Maybe I remember that incorrectly. It just looked less spectacular because he's tall.
FACTS
sure, but he was taller with much longer reach...he barely got off the floor lol
I just realized Barkley has been hosting games for like 25 years now
"Somebody of the 5 judges gave him a 9!" Some things never change 🤣
Ol hater
This man had some hops!!!
and some UPs as David Robinson calls it.
Some serious shit
Reported 42inch vert.
The firt miss dunk is even more impressive! What a bounce!!
Head is legit just below the rim at his highest point. He looked like he taking off an trampoline.
Its amazing how even more advanced the between the legs dunk have gotten since Rider started it known as the Eastbay funk
Orlando Woodridge did a between the legs dunk in 84 im pretty sure tho
@@randomaccount2369 I may have overlooked that one
@@jeromewilliams591 @randomaccount236 Right here: ruclips.net/video/6n_jNoZllgs/видео.html
@@randomaccount2369 yep finally a real basketball historian
That first dunk. He took off from outside the box. Jesus Christ. 😱
You stole me the word. His first dunk. That's it. More impact than his between the leg one.
@@a.k.4486 he had some bunnies!!
Fucking ridiculous
That first dunk was so underrated its silly. Dude is 6'5, barely runs, and jumps from outside the box. Just explodes. Basically freezes in front of the rim with hos head over it. If he grew up in this era, hed be shitting on alot of dudes
And these dudes had to make 3 in 90 seconds. They started it all.
First dunk he was absolutely flying. He was 6'5 and his head is at the rim at his high point, he really timed the leap perfectly and exploded.
the good ol days baby!!!!!
That first dunk still gets me revved #bounce
Shxt what like he hit a trampoline and just soared effortlessly! 🛫✈🛬
One of my favorite players back in the 90’s. Nice!
The Wolves were dumb as rocks to try to not build around him...
He really had that kind of power
My fave player growing up
One of mine too
He was a baller. And had some of the most amazing highlights ever
He started that between the leg dunk now everyone does it
dialtone21 Exactly! He did it in college in 93 so I was ready for him to do it when he got to the NBA. It was the first time someone put it between the legs! Rider was such an underrated player.
Orlando Wooldridge did it first
@@JVM1981 exactly!
He wasn't the first player to do it. He wasnt even the first player to do it in the nba
Guy from Chicago bulls did it way before
I remember watching the draft and immediately after being drafted Rider promised he would take the NBA slam dunk championship. At first I thought he was overly confident, but immediately after his BTL dunk, I knew he was just legit…and confident.
Twolves need to bring back those uniforms!!!
Great Child hood memories here
How that wasn't a 50 is beyond me! I remember seeing this live and at the time, it was the best I've ever seen.
Its not called a between the legs dunk. ITS CALLED THE EAST BAY FUNK DUNK . IF YOU KNO HOOPS YOU KNO THAT
holy crap, I saw Dino Radja there for a few seconds. There's somebody I haven't seen or heard about in like 25 years
This is Barkley's internship with TNT😁
Barkley actually first appeared on TNT w/ Ernie Johnson in 1992
Isaiah Rider... REPREZENT!!!
I'm so glad I was watching this back then..
I remember seeing that when I was like 11 eastbay funk
Just crazy how everyone looks like they shop at Value Village for cloths...
Rider what an athlete.
He can fly
Everyone sitting court side dressed like an assistant coach! 😬
I liked those Wolves' jerseys.
damn all that energy in a round
Dude was amped and energetic
Isaiah Rider looks like the smaller version of Shaq.
@@ryneagheilim9782 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Alittle bit😂😂😂
That east bay should have been 50
He was so underrated. He should of been an all star
freaking Doug Collins with the spoilers.... lol WTF?
It's like he wanted to ruin the contest man. Haha damn.
He’s so mark Jackson
This dunk contest was lit. Nice dunks but it was the 90s. Rider had game and he had swag
*baby Shaq*
Kanye Rider is a dope dunker!
Ray J. got stocky
Alameda, CA. Fuck yea JR. Rocked his jersey when I was a kid, saw him in Alameda in a red range Rover with a hot chick. He gave my little ass daps and said nice jersey. Never forget that.
I seen it in person
Pippen got 3 rings damn 3 moe comin
Knew he had hops when he blocked Ewing’s dunk lol
Doug Collins the walking spoiler alert
That dunk should have been a 10 it was done the first time original dunk
8, maybe 9
That song doe “more bounce” are you kidding me rn
That dunked changed the contest
The best ever
#GOTTALOVETHATERA!!!!
He was a rider
Great year
East Bay Funk was so clean
In 2020 is out from the beginning.
Aaron Gordon could've joined this dunk contest and still gets robbed. That's how great he is
Aaron wasn't even born yet
@@tigergray1100 duh
Harold miner or Isaiah rider?
He look like O’Neal
More like Kanye bro
@@muhammadghur Nah.
Lonzo looking like he came right from church
Thats how your supposed to dress
He throws the ball up high. Don’t see that too much now.

Who on Earth voted this down???
He was high
Who the fuck gave this a 9 on the judges lol
John Connelly I downvoted it Connelly , what are you gonna do about it?!
Robert Pack and his fans!
that was a 50
Only reason why Rider won in ‘94 was because Harold Miner did not participate that year. Had Harold competed he would have won three years in a row…
ok
JR rider. Major disappointment in the league
That would’ve been a 30 in today’s contest.
I play ball with him at lifetime fitness
This was the HOOD VERTICAL Baller...
EBFD East Bay Funk Dunk
shaquille oneal! stop lyin guys
if you compare this dunk contest to what aaron gordon and some people did this would be considered nothing

I used to always hope Rider, LJ, Anthony and Plastic Man ended up on the same team. UNLV used to be a lot of fun. Now they are just trash.
Who gave him a 9 ... dwade that you?? 👀
Why didn't this guy have a better career, especially considering MJ's absence during this time?
He did the first BTL Dunk...in a NBA SL Contest.
