Scottie Pippen wasn't the only one to put Patrick Ewing on a poster. His superior teammate had his chance as well.
Jordan seems to be trapped along the baseline but somehow shakes free. He then is face to face with Hall of Fame center Patrick Ewing. They both go up, but as always, Jordan seems to get just a little bit higher than everyone else.

This is how you know Jordan was just on another level. He had two open teammates but instead takes it himself and rises over a 6'6" forward.
Jordan gets the steal, crosses up one defender and throws it down on poor Kelly Tripucka.
He never had a chance.

Yeah, so what this dunk has been done by a few other people.
Jordan wasn't a good foot inside the free-throw line like Erving was and didn't travel like Ibaka did. May sound silly but it does make the takeoff a little bit harder.
Jordan ended up winning the contest and added another accomplishment to his resume.

Jordan gets the rebound, and goes baseline for the reverse dunk.
Now, normally Jordan would just rise above whoever gets in his way, but this time it is Manute Bol who happens to be 7'7".
Guess if you can't go over them, you go around them and throw it down.

Once he crossed half court, he knew what he was going to do with it.
The tongue came out, and up, up and away—he rises over Glenn Robinson.
And one, please.

On a fast break, Jordan receives the pass and believes he can fly over dominant shot-blocker Alonzo Mourning.
Jordan had a lot of people believing they could fly too after seeing dunks like this.

Chicago Bulls @ Atlanta Hawks - December 10, 1986. This dunk was sweet. Jordan gets the ball and fakes a pass to a wide open Charles Oakley to draw two defenders and then jumps out of the gym to throw it down on Tree Rollins.

Jordan never cared who you were; if you were in his way, you were another victim.
This time it happens to be three-time MVP Moses Malone. Jordan fakes a pass, cuts hard to the cup and TIMBER.
He makes it look so easy.
