Dunks From the Day: 'Nique Hammers Larry Bird

We're co-opting a wildly popular feature from the NCAA Hoops Fanhouse, known as Dunks From the Day. This first one comes courtesy of Dominique Wilkins -- there was really no other choice to jump off the NBA Dunks From the Day -- on the face of Larry Bird.



You know, just for a second there ... I bet Larry Bird feared for his physical safety. You can argue about most stylish dunkers of all-time, if you'd like, but few brought the raw thunder that Dominique Wilkins was packing. He would rear back and attack the rim like it molested his little sister.

And I do believe that the post dunk celebration would've been just a little bit more subdued had the dunk come on anyone other than Larry Bird.

Handsomely edited video, too, if I do say so myself.
