CNNSI has a "Best NBA playoff series" article HERE (http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/multimedia/photo_gallery/0905/nba.best.playoff.series/content.16.html). One of them shows the awesome dunk Starks had over the entire Bulls team. :)

Bulls defeat Knicks
1993 East finals

Who can forget Charles Smith flailing away from point-blank range in the pivotal Game 5? Given Smith's epic troubles to finish at the rim, it's easy to overlook the fact that the defending champion Bulls actually trailed the top-seeded Knicks 2-0 in the series (John Starks' electrifying baseline dunk was a notable highlight from Game 2) before ripping off four consecutive victories. Michael Jordan scored 54 points in Game 4 and recorded a triple-double in Game 5, the latter helping the Bulls break the Knicks' 27-game home winning streak.
