Happy Birthday Michael Jordan, 10 Iconic Moments in His Career Including Dunks, Buzzerbeaters & More

1. Michael Jordan Dunks Over Patrick Ewing

I’ll start with what Jordan himself revealed to be his most memorable dunk, his dunk over Patrick Ewing in the 1991 NBA Playoffs.  Jordan spun away from a double team of John Starks and Charles Oakley on the baseline then banged it on a defending Ewing, and it happened right in front of a stunned Madison Square Garden crowd.

“I told him, Georgetown guys don’t block shots, they take charges,” Jordan said. “I dunked it on him so hard it was unbelievable. Every time I see him, that’s the first thing I remind him of.”
