 QueenieChan.com - LiveJournal - Manga Recommendation: Slam Dunk
Slam Dunk is available in English, but only in very limited numbers.
I've never liked sports manga largely because of the formula plots and the whole Japanese "sports philosophy", which dictates that your sport of choice must be your whole life and you must take your rivalries and failures very, very personally.
When I read Slam Dunk, I had no criticisms of it because for the Sports genre, it does everything you'll expect from that genre prefectly.

 AnimeNation News
Slam Dunk, both the original manga and the long running anime series, are very popular in Japan, but both have a relatively small cult following in America.
Toei attempted to release the Slam Dunk anime television series in America in 2005, but the release was an abject failure.
Considering that there have been previous attempts at localizing both the manga and the anime, I believe that there would be more vocal demand for Slam Dunk among American fans and consumers if there was actually a significant demand for it.

 Dear Boys or Slam Dunk? [Archive] - AnimeSuki Forum
Slam Dunk is not only a great basketball anime, it's a great anime in general.
Slam Dunk is the only sports show that had me fast forwarding to the next episode to find out how the match ends (through all 20 eps of the Shohoku/Ryonan final).
Compare that to Slam Dunk, where Hanamichi begins with absolutely zero knowledge of the game, and everybody, even Rukawa by the end of it, is constantly trying to prove and improve themselves through their game.

 ++ Anime Otaku Fridge :::: Slam Dunk ++   (Site not responding. Last check: )
Slam Dunk has excellent characterization that makes it likeable by all - you are drawn into the workings of each character's mind during the game that makes for a spell-binding, heart-stopping viewing experience.
What I also like about Slam Dunk is the periodic appearances of commentator Dr. T, who jumps in to explain certain basketball terms and rules just so you don't get lost in all the b-ball jargon everyone's throwing around.
Another plus for Slam Dunk is the presence of main character Sakuragi Hanamichi, self-proclaimed basketball genius who gets into basketball to impress the newfound love of his life, Akagi Haruko.

Slam Dunk is one of the more realistic sports manga.
Sakuragi's growth is done especially well, he grows slowly (for the manga run; generally, a three-month improvement in sports is considered a great curve, acknowledged by many of the characters themselves) and works hard despite any gifts he may have.
It is also to be noted that one of the four teams in the Kanagawa Final League, Takezato High, does not make any appearance in the games, possibly because of their lack of depth in the story; Ryonan, Shohoku, and Kainan all defeat them easily, despite Takezato being seeded first in their respective tournament block.

 Modern Japan - Entertainment - Comics (Manga)
To many Westerners, one of the hardest things to understand about the Japanese is their voracious appetite for manga or comics (though the recent launch of an English version of Shonen Jump manga in the US was hugely succesful).
Manga come in two main forms: weekly, twice-monthly and monthly magazine style manga and paperback books, usually in a series.
As well as the manga stories and advertisements, the magazine has full-color photo spreads of a couple of teenage bimbos, usually in bikinis and with a contact address for fan-mail.

 Slam Dunk manga artist accused of plagiarism at BasuGasuBakuhatsu Anime Blog
I was just browsing around ANN and I found this article about Takehiko Inoue plagiarising from photos of NBA players for his manga, Slam Dunk.
I think the point is that he used copyrighted photos from the NBA to draw his manga, and it looks like he pretty much lifted scenes straight from the photos.
Personally, I think the story and dialogue would be more important than the scenes of people jumping around, and I don’t think it would be possible to plagiarise that from photos.
