Why the dunk was outlawed: Young Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (Lew Alcindor)

- Clips of the young Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (then Lew Alcindor) from both Power Memorial High School in 1965 and his first NCAA season as a sophomore in 1966/67 at UCLA just prior to the NCAA's banning of the dunk shot from basketball. The banning of the dunk shot in NCAA basketball in 1968 is also known as the Lew Alcindor rule as he is directly responsible for it.
They banned the wrong shot. They should have made hook shooting illegal. LOL.
+Joseph Wright ...funny, but TRUE!!!! They should have banned the Sky Hook!! LOL!!
Anthony Moody
Banning the dunk is a rule designed for someone like Shaquille O'Neal.
True
+Joseph Wright typical response from someone who is typically an idiot
+gary watkins man shut your too black to be seen head ass up
They couldn't stop Kareem from scoring so they banned the dunk thinking that would stop him. So Kareem brought out the skyhook and overcame the ban on dunking. Still not being able to stop Kareem, opposing players tried to scratch his eyes. That worked for a few games, then Kareem wore goggles to protect his eyes. With nothing left to stop Kareem he went on to win six NBA championships, six MVP awards, and became the all-time leading scorer in NBA history. No player has ever had the ability to score from 10 feet out like Kareem could. He was the Lakers half-court offense in 1980’s.
+Frank Jones How many rings did Russell win. I'm told that he had a ring for each of his fingers plus one extra!
+Liam Keyes eleven
+Liam Keyes more rings than fingers.
So? Go post it on Russell's videos. Enough of the hate! Russell was Russell, Kareem was Kareem. They were BOTH great.
Yep. Kareem down in the post... Sky hook all day!!! #dagr81
Julius Erving didn't dunk till 1971 because of the rules .
The dunk was banned in college that is why Kareem learned the sky hook in college
My gut feeling is banning the dunk may have been racially motivated thinking it would give white players a better chance to compete.
@@ckobo84 in the pro's it wasn't banned it just wasn't good for your health if entered the paint to dunk.
There was NEVER a NBA or ABA rule against dunking.
The NCAA’s ban on dunks lasted for ten seasons until 1976-1977 - so the Doctor wasn't allowed to dunk in college, but certainly could AND DID as soon as he entered the ABA - around 1971.
He probably DID dunk in High School before that though.
@@ckobo84 I’m sure race played a factor in banning the dunk because one has to wonder if a dominant white center would have come along, the NCAA probably would have lauded him instead of handicapping him.
Still in my opinion the greatest player I ever saw. UCLA freshman team scrimmage and beat the UCLA varsity team that were the NCAA champs.Freshmen were not allowed to play on the varsity in those days.
+Ernie Johnson John Wooden said that Jabbar could score at least 40 points a game or more if he wanted to in college, but if he would allow that to happen they wouldn't have won 3 straight National Championships. Basketball is a team sports John Wooden always preach that.
Jabbar won 3 straight National Championship in college.
Banning the dunk did absolutely nothing. People instead just dropped it in from above the rim without touching the rim. It was an ill conceived idea.
@Mac Turner Bill Walton.
@Mac Turner An absurd remark. Your racism is showing your ignorance of the game and it's players.

Now you see that dunking can be detrimental with the no dunk rule Jabar developed the best post move ever the, Sky Hook and developing a soft touch around the paint is crucial for players to become great scorers Look at McHale and Moses Malone,Hakeem, Bird, MJ and other greats it's harder to hit from 3' than 15' or30' sometimes with dudes in your face
I should point out though, that Jabbar claims he developed the skyhook at a young age in gradeschool working on the Mikan drill, before he ever had to deal with dunking being banned in the NCAA.
Wilt Chamberlain Archive Yes that's true but I wonder why nobody has copied it I remember Artis Gilmore trying it but he was not as successful ,and if you notice Kareem had to get one dribble to kinda get his rhythm or he would miss it usually. Larry Bird said of Kareem after loosing to the LA Lakers in the finals, the year Kareem won the Finals MVP "they have a big guy with a shot that nobody can block and when he is hitting it there's not much you can do about it"
+David Hammond I dont understand, if he's close enough to dunk the ball cant he just not touch the rim and it wont be considered dunking? or do they have a different definition of dunking than i do...
+Minkar Thats what they use to do just drop the ball in the rim. When i first remember watching college basket ball in the seventies David Thompson was known for catching the alley oop and just dropping in the rim.
+David Hammond Look at the footage again David, he had the hook and his other moves along with his dunks before the no dunk rule.
That moment when rules try to restrict you but you dont give a fk cuz u are the best anyways ehehehehehe
RayVitoles he’s not better than wilt😂💯
God DAMMIT, WHY oh WHY doesn't a modern centre master the sky hook and bring back real back to the basket moves and those sweet inside J's! A centre back in the day was pure stylish CLASS!!!
Back in the day it was all about centers like bill russel, wilt, and magic but ended up being a point gaurd then the guards started to appear and ever since then its been an all team effort
***** Who is Magic, which center are you referring to as Magic?
Magic Johnson point guard for the LA Lakers.
Oh, you said he was a center.
different game wouldn't work today
1:53 is the funniest play I've ever seen
It's called "It will eventually go in" play...
Laughed my ass of on that play
High school varsity starter against the middle schoolers
2 points AND 2 rebounds1
Back in the day Lew Alcindor when a freshman wasn't on the varsity team at UCLA. All Freshman were on the jr. varsity team. When they talked about Lew and the Varsity team they said Alcindor and the jr Varsity team beat the Varsity team regularly. They couldn't wait until Alcindor became a sophomore and could be on the varsity.
one more thing . the varsity won a national championship.

How does it not make sense? You poor confused little man...
Might I suggest a reading comprehension refresher course?
Please note how Kareem is shooting bank shots and handling the ball. Highly skilled. The GOAT at all levels.
It's honestly amazing watching this old footage the game was just to easy for him 🐐🙇
He scored 52 pts in his collegiate game. After the dunk was outlawed, it made some of the better players eve more dangerous.
I miss old school big men like Kareem, Hakeem and Shaq. Guys who could actually read the game. Now it's all about athleticism, quick feet and pick'n'rolls. But I guess it's inevitable, it goes too fast nowadays.
kingcam0775 Are you kidding me?
Them bigs in memphis are a throwback for sure. #zbo. #gasol
He would be on the bench in the 80's and 90's. Dude is good not great. And his defense is horrible. Barkley, Webber, Karl Malone, Olajuwon, Ewing, Robinson, Duncan, Shaq, Larry Johnson even, Mourning, Kareem, Bird, Mchale, Rodman, Moses Malone, Big Game Worthy, Wilkins, would have DESTROYED him and he would have had SERIOUS problems dealing with very good players like Derek Coleman, Shawn Kemp, Jamal Mashburn, Larry Nance, Mark Acquire, Alex English, Cliff Robinson. Also the league was filled with SUPER VILLIANS like Laimbeer, Mahorn, Oakley, Xavier Mcdaniel, Anthony Mason, Mark Eaton and Mutombo who would slap the crap out of players, hurt players and more with no fouls called. Al Jefferson would therefore look pitiful. His confidence would be shattered as he sat quietly on the bench. Ditto for Memphis frontcourt lol
Nova Knowself
you missed the point of his argument completely.
The zone defense rules in the NBA changing in the mid 2000s is why they are much less common now. You can much more easily hedge on a low post threat before he has the ball, making it much harder to even get him the ball. It's a lot more turnover prone because of that change as well.
I remember when he came to play on our courts while he was still in high school. We were in awe at his size. 😊
Thanks for another excellent video! I was fortunate to have seen Kareem in his prime and in my opinion he is the second most dominant player in the history of the game behind Wilt. Kareem also won 3 NCAA titles in 3 years and Imo the most dominant college player ever. His skyhook is arguably the most devastating single weapon/shot in the history of the game. In his prime he was easily the best center in basketball.
@mericanmodi8479correct. All he had was highly blown up stats in an era which was very fast-paced.
Your channel shows a lot of info for the people who loves old NBA. Thanks.
*NCAA bans dunking*
Kareem: OK, here comes the skyhook!
They banned the dunk but the only way you could have stopped him from scoring was to ban Kareem himself. That was the most dominating player on the planet in his time.
Beautiful to watch. So much grace and power.
From 1935 until the 1980s, the basketball rules makers were utterly horrified at the idea of big tall strong players controlling the game so they passed rules change after rules change to handicap tall players.
guys, I know nothing about basketball, but I could say this Kareem can't be stopped.
the dunk was banned because of Don Haskins and the 1966 Texas Western aka UTEP team. there is a picture of David Lattin dunking over Pat Riley in 1966 NCAA title game.
Yes, I also believe that Coach Rupp played a MAJOR hand in having the dunk banned. His loss to Texas Western was a huge blow to his ego...and those black players were slam dunking all over Rupp's white team.
White players had a tough time defending the dunk. I'll never believe that it had anything to do with the excessive amount of points that KAJ was racking up. That was just the NCAA's excuse--and it was a poor one at that.
Absolutely wrong...dunk wasn't banned till after Alcindors sophomore season.... know your facts !!!
Add Alcindor's dominance in 67 with Texas Western destroying Kentucky in 66 and the NCAA saw a future where they couldn't control the game. The ban was ridiculous, but the thought of black players dominating the game made it an easy decision.
Sadly, it kept me and my class from dunking in junior high, high school and college...68 through 76. I started dunking in the 8th grade... But, I could only do it on the playgrounds.
He will dominate today's game for sure. Avg 25-28 points 12-14 rebounds.
+Travis Tovey 30+ per game, 20 rebounds in today's NBA.
+Bobby Dullay for 3 seconds you can and that is just enough time to do what you got to do
really? did you watch him play
20 rebounds in todays NBA? No way. He would probably score 30 but i don't think anyone could average 20 rebounds in todays NBA, not even wilt or russell
All you have to do is look the the 90s when Dennis Rodman averaged 18+ for a year or so. He was 6-8 230. Wilt was 7-2 300 and just as athletic or more than Rodman. The pace of the 90s was slower than Wilt's day and perhaps slower than today.
It's all hypothetical. We don't know. Wilt played from the 50s to 70s, not in the 90s or 00s.
He was jumping so high when he was young that he would sometimes throw a sky hook DOWNWARDS into the basket!!! That is crazy
If Kareem didn't become Muslim/change name and was friendlier to media he would be considered greatest of all time equally with mj. Before you reply look at the numbers.
+jays0909 He's considered to be on the same level as Michael. Being a Muslim or not being "friendly" didn't and probably wouldn't have an effect on how he was looked at as a basketball player.
+jays0909 He's considered that by a lot of old timers
+ThePlaterism he is considered on the same level as Michael by those who are viewing him through an un biased filter but most casual fans etc do not cause the media is who shines the spotlight on specific athletes without that casual fans don't care. My reference was to him being unfriendly with media, who decides who gets the attention and so forth so absolutely it does...
+jays0909 well then casual fans need to learn to think on their own and come to their own conclusions.
It's as simple as that. Who gives a damn what anyone else thinks?
i am not looking at no numbers personality has nothing to do with how great a player is ranked. tim duncan quiet as hell...top15 players of all time...now if he was loud mouthed would that make him the top 5? nope.
I do vividly remember when he came to the Bucks and when the Bucks began. My brother got that jersey number for his team in High School and just played every game and was in every group in the city- trophy after trophy. And I remember on the little transistor radio every time he made a shot
"Al cin dor!"
Making the game harder for Kareem, Wilt and Russell. Meanwhile making it easier for others. Imagine that. They are still doing that today, changing the rules to favor long distance shooters and those that are less athletic. Making the NBA great again.
amazing - I've always read in the books and papers about his early dominance but seeing it is much more impressive
Always felt like it doesn't count with these types of players because they're so tall but he was actually really good
that dunk at 1:26 was some testosterone, would be nice to have seen him do more of that with the Lakers
Alcindor in his prime could even compete with Wilt when Wilt was in his 14th season - wouldn't have been pretty to see a young Chamberlain against Kareem when Kareem was in his 14th season...
1:31 why did the referee that hype
Quavo the GOAT LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOO I WOULD BE TOO
he went to my grandmas birthday party when they where in highschool
1:32 ref was about to make an amazing call.
this man said "Undefeatable"
I think Kareem is probably the best of all time.
1:54 lol Kareem a fucking savage for just waving the ball like that
His story is amazing!
1:54 should be outlawed. He was toying with them like a dad playing against toddlers.
Bill Walton played almost like Kareem did before the skyhook. I've wondered if that was because of Wooden's influence, or if that style was recruited, or if that was the archetypical center of the day.
People say there are "generational" type players. Kareem was a once in forever player.
Best college player ever. With him, UCLA was unbeatable
Man among little boys
please tell me which power memorial high varsity guys basketball team was the most elite when when led by the legendary lew alcindor
Imagine if Shaq was banned from dunking? He would have averaged 2 points... from 15 free throws
Much Appreciation.
I sincerely hope Victor Wembenyama is researching the great Jabar.
He has a great career ahead barring injury.
I remember watching him as a kid in Milwaukee at the arena and hearing over the loudspeaker "Lew-Al-Ciiiiiiiindor"!
Monsterbaby do you think kareem is the goat
I don't know why Kareem doesn't get more respect one of the G.O.A.T IMHO
Was Kareem taller than Wilt?
Yes, but of course not by much.
Wilt was 7-1 and 1/16th of an inch tall without shoes, with a 7-8 inch armspan, in the NBA he played at weights between 258 and 310lbs
Kareem was 7-1 and 7/8ths of an inch tall without shoes, with a 7-5 inch armspan, in the NBA he played at weights between 231 and 267lbs
Wilt Chamberlain Archive Jabbar claimed he was 7'1, but ask any centers he played against, they'll tell you they're 7', and that Kareem had a good 5 inches on them.
+Wilt Chamberlain Archive, you are great!
epics7 Watch the 1986 Western conference finals and compare Sampson to Kareem. We know Sampson was 7'4 or 7'5, so he'd be a good reference.
I remember when Red Sarachek would work on Kareems footwork after Powers practice and before Yeshiva universities practice coach Jack wad one of Reds deciples
The behind his head dunk probably did li fir the rules makers. They stupidly removed one of the most exciting shots in basketball.
Outstanding talent
Kareem denied my dad an autograph at one time, which he was going to give to me. This was in the late 70's. Read any story about him, he never gave autographs.
+Mark T He was also famous for sucker punching.
Thats because hes muslim and doesnt believe in being idolized by others
200mphz06 that may be the dumbest thing ive heard this month. Suicide bombers commit suicide to display their loyalty to their God not to become martyrs.

sick mixtape
Nba history of Racism .....
1) The Lanes where widened because Wilt Chamberlain was dominating way to much.
2) NCAA bans the Dunk to stop Kareem Abdul Jabar from Dominating next level. ( Coach John Wooden teaches him to adjust and develop The Sky Hook!, the most dominating Shot in History )
3) When the Slam Dunk was first allowed , they originally wanted to make it only worth 1 point. It was deemed way to flashy and classless.
If you watch early Dunk Competitions , commentators actually state that touching the rim to much is a bad thing. Dominique Wilkins Slam Dunk was actually put down as to much contact with Rim.
Saw him play at UCLA and the pros. Also saw all the greats after (Jordan, Magic, Bird etc) and IMO, Cap is best of all. While MJ may have had a higher ceiling, KAJ was the best over the length of his career. Check out the stats of the Bucks the year prior to his arrival and then the year he came aboard and you will see the impact. Next do the same with MJ and you will see it's a no brainer. KAJ=GOAT. KAJ faced the best and beat legendary teams; MJ faced far inferior opponents.
Then compare the same stats for the Celtics and Russell's arrival - and don't forget to factor in that the Celtics TRADED AWAY A 6 TIME ALL-STAR AND FUTURE HALL OF FAME PLAYER for the right to draft Russell.
Walton had a similar effect in HIS rookie year as well - and all *3* were far more effective in their rookie years than Jordan was.
@@bricefleckenstein9666 Walton averaged 12.8 points and 12.6 Rebs, 4.8 assists as a rookie. Russell averaged 14.7 points and 19.6 Rebs, 1.8 assists on 42% shooting. I'll take rookie Jordans 28.2 points, 6.5 Rebs, 5.9 assists, 2.4 steals on 51% shooting.
I think a players peak is more important than the scope of their career when ranking the best NBA players of of all time. Also averaging 6 more points per game over the course of a career is very significant.
@mericanmodi8479 ONE bloody season.
By the last championship, Russell and Sam Jones was tiring to the point they RETIRED at the end of the season, Havlicek was prime, and both Tom Sanders and Bailey Howell were in their last EFFECTIVE season and fading badly - and as usual, they were FACING teams with 3 or 4 PRIME Hall of Fame level players pretty much every night.
The "advantages" Russell had are often overstated.
Rare footage of Kareem missing a sky hook
Best player ever!
Hmm . He could of played in NBA straight outta High School but best thing ever happened was Coach Wooden .
Think of Kareem being in this generation of young talent and I believe he'd thrive today he was that skilled and talented.
Well basketball is a big mans game, Kareem could adapt to the new rules without any type of difficulty because he was that flexible and talented not to mention unstoppable, he was the GOAT in his era according to my estimation...
This is golden, thanks!
The music was too loud sadly, I couldn't concentrate on was he was saying in the interview.
Now I see! The dunk shot was outlawed because of Lew Alcindor. In those days, “the powers to be” said that the shot showed no skill in the game of basketball and that the players were bending the basketball rims. However they still could not stop Alcindor. He developed the “ Sky Hook”!!!!🏀
Those big men make the bigs today look unskilled.
NBAGOATS they are...today's players are very 'athletic', but not nearly as good as 'basketball players', big difference.
Listen...he was great for his time...so was Wilt and and alot of other guys. What would determine if they were successful in another time would be there mindset....and if they continued to develop. We simply don't know the answer to that. Some guys hit a wall and don't develop much more even with hard work. I feel lile knowledge of the game now is higher than it was then, so some of these old school guys would be normal role players on great teams, others would be stars. But since we dont know we judge them by the success they did have. But as a former player and current coach I can tell you 95% of these guys look very raw in there development even in there later years.
I thought the NCAA banned dunks starting in 67. That year Kareem started college ball and I see him dunking ...
THIS IS WHY THE DUNK WAS OUTLAWED (IN COLLEGE)...AND THIS IS THE PLAYER... KIDS GET IT RIGHT WHEN YOU SAY WHO THE GREATEST PLAYER OF ALL-TIME IS....
Old heads will try to tell you the competition he played against was tougher than today's.
No. It's just that younger heads can't make the case that today's players are better without contradicting themselves.
It's funny that dunk was banned because of Kareem a long lanky finesse center, but When Wilt's big ass was coming up they didn't ban it. I think it was because Kareem was more aggressively attacking the rim, he didn't care about people. Wilt's mentality was a lil different, he didn't want to hurt anyone or get an offensive foul. Plus Wilt was so athletic he didn't need to be aggressive really...Look how Kareem's attacking the rim like he's westbrook lmaooo
God Forbid you got a black guy who is head and shoulders over everyone dunking on you anytime he wants in high. I'm glad people in power got to their senses and brought it back to high school and college, but the ban lasted from 1967 to 1976. They forgot that basketball is sports entertainment.
An all time great!!!
I was never aware that the dunk was ever banned in college, for how long?
BlackStarr007 ??? You're kidding...right? From 1967 to 1976 it was illegal to dunk in both high school and college. 'The Alcindor Rule'...do some research.
A lot of high school players got screwed. Zero career dunks during those years.
The difference between Kareem and Shaq is that Kareem had a higher basketball IQ. He'd find the open man before him. And having a team mate like Magic (who's basically a second Lebron) really gave him an easy edge on his ending days as well.
Magic, a Second Le'Bron, are you serious?
Yes, Magic is a second Lebron. Magic has the accolades and all that but that doesn't mean he's better. Lebron is able to find the open man, finish just as good, possibly shoot better (now that is), and is waaaay more athletic. So to summon it up, Lebron's able to do everything Magic does and more. So all y'all laughing and what I stated are just blind following Lebron haters and ignore the skill base that comes with it. Next y'all are going to be saying Larry Bird is better than Lebron while Lebron's already got the accolades and the skills (other than shooting) to prove he's better.
***** lol you're still looking at lebron before 2011. And losing to that Mavs team is really not inexcusable. Now I know you're talking out your ass. You're just a Lebron hater and a Magic nostalgia fan.
Lebron had developed a shot after game 7 against the Spurs in 2013. Not to mention he's hit I don't know how many game winner shots showing that he's clutch enough. If you're still fixated on the Choking method because of 2011, let it go, he's developed. Besides, Lebron's taken a weaker team to the finals and has also seen the finals more than Magic.
Out of rhythm passing??? What are we doing, playing musical basketball?? A pass is a pass. That's like saying Jason Williams is a better passer than Lebron (which he is) because his passing looks more stylish. And that's dumb as hell. If that's the case, all the teams are better than the Spurs.
Magic more intelligent and a better leader than Lebron?????? REALLY??????? You obviously don't know Lebron like you think you do. I'm not going to say you're wrong, but I'm going to say that's debatable. You're HIGHLY discrediting Lebron. I guess because of the fact that Lebron isn't loyal (just like Shaq) plays a role. But that's not a good reason to discredit his ability. When he's on a team people look up to him, respect him, and he's able to bring the team together (despite yelling at chalmers like he's a little brother).
Inexcusable for losing to the Maverics???? That's like saying losing the the Spurs is inexcusable. Though the Heat were a better team, the Maverics had a nice line up. Not to mention, if it were any other team, the Heat would've won. The Maverics remember that time the Heat beat them in 06, just like the Spurs remember the time they lost previously. Not to mention, that was the Heat's first time playing together. A year's chemistry is good but still wasn't like the Maverics.
You all are obviously bias to Magic.
LilPrince Killa Mavericks is spelled with a k, and no one is biased towards Magic, you just don't know what you're talking about.
Bronze Bengal As long as you knew what I was referring to then that's all that matters. If you're going to be a grammar nazi then fuck off. Not like I give two shits about the Mavericks (I spelled it wrong on purpose this time in case you didn't notice). And it's not that I don't know what I'm talking about, you all are just bias. Give credit where it's due and stop favorite one over the other.
I think kareem is the most underrated player of all time but I think I read a book on wilt chamberlain and they ban him from dunking the ball before kareem came to the pros I may be wrong tho
Imagine Kareem and Wilt on good terms and on the same team, Kareem at the PF and Wilt at Center
When Wilt and Kareem played, they changed the rules to make it tougher for them to dominate. When Shaq played they let him bully defenders and get away with all kinds of stuff. Wilt and Kareem would have dominated Shaq.
When Wilt and Kareem played, defenders were allowed to play tougher defense. If Shaq on offense tried to bully or barge Wilt or Kareem during the 1960's/1970's/1980's, Shaq would be called for offensive fouls.
Hahahahaha
If that's the case then the dunk should've been banned during Wilt's and Bill Russell's era.
players who can play wiyhout dunking seems to increase longevitrty its more visible in older s
1:54 LMAO!
Lol, they inadvertently created a monster with the sky hook.
Shaq would have just flat out had to play football if he was born back then
Shaq would have been the best defensive lineman in history.
This guy must have looked like the second coming of Wilt Chamberlain to people back then.
kareem looks great in short shorts
He's quite the specimen
mere humans will never no the sensation of dunking from the foul line as I have myself or dunking the ball and defying gravity. Which only has a short life span in your youth.
Respect 🙏
I beg to differ. I believe it came from the 6'4 to 6'9 brothers who were dunking in college games especially the guys from texas western a la Wille Cager David Lattin, Nevil Shed. Also New York street ballers as well.
Lol he was tightly surrounded by 4 defenders at 1:37 that was cracking me up
I wish that they'd outlaw it again. A total non shot that should only be allowed if the player is under 6 feet tall. While we're at it, the three pointer needs to go, too. Bring back fast break basketball. The game, as it is today, is boring and unremarkable.
Imagine Wilt with Kareem's hook 😮😮😮
kareem's hook shot was a thing of beauty!
That's one of the reasons why the ncaa was behind back then
that ref was hype as fuck at 1:30
Is that Fred Hesler asking questions?

The GOAT. End of Story
