  • Introduction to Video Content
  • In this video, we dive into the world of NBA's most iconic dunks and how Gilbert Arenas played a pivotal role in its creation. The conversation begins with a discussion about how free throw line dunks lost their popularity after Michael Jordan's legendary performance in the 1987 dunk contest. However, James Flight White helped revive the trend with his own impressive free throw line dunk. The focus then shifts to a Michigan State freshman named Cohen Carr, who made waves with his free throw line double clutch tomahawk dunk during the MSU Midnight Madness event. The video provides multiple angles of Carr's dunk, drawing comparisons to MJ's iconic 50 in the 1988 dunk contest. The hosts debate the score they would give to Carr's dunk, with Gilbert Arenas favoring a perfect 50 and others offering slightly lower scores. The conversation concludes with a shoutout to James Flight White and a recognition of his contributions to the world of dunking. Overall, the video explores the significance of free throw line dunks in the NBA and how players like Gilbert Arenas and James Flight White have left their mark on this iconic aspect of basketball.
  • Subtitles section
  • So Gil, last week we talked a little bit about how free throw line dunks have lost some steam after MJ did it in the 87 dunk contest.
  • The sport just kind of kept going low.
  • For him.
  • For him.
  • Oh, just for him.
  • Yeah, for him.
  • James Flight White helped bring it back.
  • Yeah, yeah, yeah.
  • Let me pull this out.
  • Like, let me pull this out.
  • I'm down, I'm down.
  • I need a 50. Let me pull out the guarantee 50. But a Michigan State freshman, Cohen Carr, stowing his name in the hat during a, what was it, the MSU, I don't know if it was Midnight Madness or Madness,
  • I don't know if it was Midnight Madness anymore, but took off a free throw line, double clutch, finished with a tomahawk.
  • Let's watch it again.
  • Right on the line, ooh.
  • I mean, that's like MJ's 50 in the 88 dunk contest.
  • It was around.
  • And we got another angle there so we can just get a little bit more perspective of exactly what Mr. Carr did.
  • Whack!
  • Yeah, it looked better from that way.
  • I like that.
  • That's James White-ish.
  • Yeah.
  • So Carr's listed at six foot seven, and then Boosty's definitely Boosty-ing, but Gil, I gotta ask you.
  • 50.

  • In Orlando, right?
  • And I remember we was in New Orleans.
  • We had been practicing our dunks and it was a couple of dunks that Gerald did and practiced and he only wanted to practice once.
  • Like it wasn't like we were like, he went through one little thing.
  • I was like, hey, let's try this one.
  • We'll do this.

  • Yeah, that might've been the craziest.
  • I was the same with you.
  • I was with Jason Richardson.
  • So, you know, he got invited to a dunk contest and I had a dream.
  • And I started looking at everybody's dunk patterns and I was like, man, you know, most people are two foot.
  • You know, he's two foot.
  • So I was practicing the dunk.
  • I was practicing the dunk, right?
  • And then I was like, yo, J, I got a dunk for you.
  • So I was like, you throw it up and you start with the windmill here.
  • And then at the end, you just hurry up, twist your body, throw it back, right?
  • So he tried it.
  • I got it.
  • So you came up with that one?
  • Yeah.
  • Bro, that was the first time everybody ever seen that dunk.
  • Yeah, I was just, dreamt it.

  • And then the other one is our second year, invited me again, right?
  • And we was talking about, you know, windmill and stuff.
  • And I was like, why don't you just go on a baseline and reverse it?
  • So what do you mean reverse it?
  • Like reverse it.
  • Oh my Lord.
  • Like reverse it.
  • Bro, we never seen nothing like that.
  • All he does is every single day.
  • So he never practiced it.
  • He just throws it and he watch it bounce.
  • And he says, oh, I got that, right?
  • So we was like,
  • I don't know if it works.

  • And he can't do it.
  • It was just that one time.

  • That's crazy.
  • Bro, because we used to do that dunk in layup lines because it was a two hand windmill.
  • Everybody loved the two hand windmill.
  • We all loved the one hand windmill.
  • But to do the two hand and turn, that mean you were a dunker.
  • Yeah.
