That was what the european finals of Nike a slam Dunk contest came Down to tuesday night a replay of last weeks Germany finals. This time Frankfurt a Darnell Jackson edged out Stuttgart a pee wee Morgan by one Point in a tiebreaker to take the european slam Dunk championship tuesday night. Last week the two tied in the Germany finals. This time the diminutive duo outpaced their Competition after the first round. Frances Stefan Segarel was the Only one of the three other dunkers to put any pressure on with his first round score of 9. Chicago bulls superstar Michael Jordon judged the event at Munich a Olympia Halle scene of the 1972 summer olympics. And the event Start without air Jordon electrifying the crowd with a few of his own slams. Before the Start of the sport fest Jordan on his first trip to Munich said that anyone can do it. A i can stay in the air a Little longer that Sall. Its a creative part of my and it was the game for the five finalists. Italy a Marco Sambucaro got the event off to a Start with a reverse Dunk to get an 8. Jackson without any fanfare went straight at the hoop and threw Down a 9. Miles Smith an american playing professional Ball for a Spanish team almost brought Down the backboard with an explosive Dunk but air rated it a Cloudy 8. Segarel followed with a twist in mid air to tally a 9. With two 9�?Ts to put pressure on it was up to the 5-foot-7 Morgan to torpedo his Competition. He came on like a bronc hanging in the air for what seemed like several moments before shoving it through to get the highest Praise from Jordan a a 10. In the second round Sambucaro missed his first attempt but got an 8 on a second try. Jackson stationed at Frankfurt a Mcnair Cavern with the 32nd signal in sent signals of his own hanging in the air for a reverse dump and a perfect 10. Smith followed that with a one handed reverse for a 9. Segarel missed on his shot before pee wee powered Over two crouching friends pumping the Ball in from straight on. But that Effort which received a 10 the a amps l. Emmett Lewis or. Darnell Jackson l and Peewee Morgan shake hands. Week before from Jordan in the Germany finals rated a 9 with the master this night. Jackson not to be outdone by Morgan went up and Oyer two people sitting on chairs from a 45-degree Angle to Clinch another 9 from Jordan. Smith got a 9 on his third round try but it would not be enough a All Morgan now needed was a nine to stay even with Jackson. Segarel a 8 put him out of the Competition. Morgan stationed with the 263rd maintenance co in Stuttgart had a Chance to clean up All the marbles with a 10. Dribbling Back and Forth across the court As the crowd buzzed Morgan lined up his shot. He came on with a burst of Speed hanging in the air and twisting sideways before the slam to take a 9 from Jordan. Of for the undersized Over the rim achievers. Jackson was first up. Knees Bent he Hung in the air seemingly forever before finally putting the Ball through on his a hesitation Rock away shot a As Jackson called it. There was no hesitation from Jordan who rocked the Olympia Halle with his 10 rating. Jackson later said a a in a glad i got to go first. It put pressure on him Morgan a Morgan needed a 10 to stay in the Money. He upped his Ante by crouching three men in front of the net but on the slam the Ball came Back and hit one of them. Jordan gave him a 9, making Jackson the Duke of dunkers in Europe anyway. The King of course was doing the scoring. A Morgan got the 9 a because he did the same thing Over again. I found it difficult to give him a 10 for the same thing a Jordan said. But Jordan said both were a fantastic. They both should have gone to the Aba All Star game he said. Jackson who stands 5-10, won a trip for two to the 1991 Aba All Star game at Charlotte n.c., february 10. He signed autographs for fans afterwards just like any superstar. A i done to feel any different a Jackson said when asked what it was like to get asked for autographs instead of doing the asking. Jackson and Morgan had been nervous going into the event against a pro Miles Smith of Spain. Smith at 6-foot-4, played for South Carolina from 1981-85 until being recruited to play professionally for the Spanish league. Smith reaction to his Competition a holy Bleep they were both great. You could Tell they really wanted he agreed with Jordan a scoring and said that morgans final attempt was at the same level As in round two. A the Way i look at it the other Guy Jackson did something different a said Smith. Also in attendance at the evening Long sport fest which included track and Field events and a soccer match was John Thompson head coach of the Georgetown hoyas and George Raveling top dog at Southern Cal. Thompson was Coy on any predictions for the hoyas this season. A this is the youngest team in years with Only five returning players. The rest will be All new.
