Who is the most exciting in-game dunker in the NBA?

[insidehoops]

On fast breaks, in half-court off isolations, back-cuts, alley-oops, whatever, ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING, who is the best and most exciting in-game dunker in the entire league?

And when you answer, SAY WHY! What makes that dunker particularly awesome?

[SAKOTXA]

Rose to me.

[D-Wade316]

[Clippersfan86]

Blake Griffin. The consistency at which he has nasty dunks is unmatched. There is a reason he was top 3 every single night on the top 10 plays and top dunks lists pretty much. He's an alley oop master like we've never seen. Throw anything in his vicinity and it's a nasty highlight.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3PKG4jVNMK4

Check this one out. Dude also has multiple half court alley oops in his rookie year.

[Rnbizzle]

Griffin.

[Crown&Coke]

Griff

Every offensive possession dude has the ability to dunk on anyone and their mom. And the best part is that he TRIES to put someone on a highlight.

But the guys mentioned above (Wade and Rose) are definely terrific in game dunkers. That nasty dunk Rose had on a backpedaling DWill almost caved my chest in from hyperventilation.

And the sick dunk on Varejao (pic above) made me jump up and down for a good 5 minutes.

[Vienceslav]

That would be Blake Griffin.

Griffin is the best in game dunker BUT it's always more exciting to see wing players posterize people. It just looks better period. So I agree guys like Rose and Wade dunking on people are awesome to watch. Wade's dunk on Perkins was SO nasty.

[rigor]

EXCITING in game dunker ? Gotta be Blake Griffin already in just 1 season.

The most exciting in-game dunker of all time is still in the NBA--Vince Carter. So whether or not Griffin had a remarkable 2010-11 season in terms of dunks...

With all due respect... LEARN TO READ. He's asking for the most exciting dunker in the NBA. Not who is most exciting dunker in NBA history. BTW Vince Carter during all star weekend said Griffin is no question a better, more consistent in game dunker than he was, but he would pick himself to win in a dunk contest (obvious reasons).

I was a big Raptors Vince Carter fan and he wasn't racking up nasty dunks nearly as often. More creative dunker? Yes. Better dunk contest dunker? Yes. Better leaper? Yes. Better in game, contact dunker? No. I mean Griffin already has a 25 minute highlight film of Clippers plays only already and he was a ROOKIE.

[senelcoolidge]

Griffin easily. Already one of the best players in the league and quickly climbing. Sad that so many people think all he does is dunk the ball.

[WillyJakk]

As effortlessly as Blake Griffin and Dwight Howard dunk (I think they're the best in game dunkers) BUT... for me the most exciting in game dunker is Derrick Rose:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?annotation_id=annotation_571232&feature=iv&src_vid=9D9fNb8blGo&v=iwPZOI-SSaY

The explosiveness this guy gets when he jumps is insane.

I just like his "body language" better when he dunks (if that makes any sense), like he's angry at the rim.

Reminds me of how Latrell Sprewell used to attack the rim all mad as hell.

[Nelson14]

blake griffin

[Arroyo8]

not the best but westbrook had some damn fine dunks

[hammer2010]

Seeing Rose go hard to the basket and throw it down with two hands on top of someone is one the most beautiful sights in all of sports.

[MELOgamaniac]

Melo.

Dunno. Thing is we don't have that much footage of Vince rookie season. But believe me... I mean it's not that easy to claim that Griffin is better in game, contact dunker. You're talking about damn Vince Carter here. Don't get carried away

[MichaelCheazley]

Young Amare stoudemire.

even Steve Nash on the sideline is like "oh, no he didn't!" and Grant Hill and Amare look shocked

how can I forget this gem? OMG that was siiiiiiiick

I think he got that after getting a steal in the backcourt too....

and yea, Rose goes at the rim with a sense of anger, which is quite contrary to his demeanor during everything else. He seems so calm when he gets hit, calm when he plays, calm in interviews, but when he cocking the ball back to hammer it home, he does seem like he's pissed off at it, like it stole his bike or something.

[knickswin]

Melo.


I'm a Melo homer too, but lol

[Rnbizzle]

I'm a Melo homer too, but lol
I do love his style when he dunks it and doesn't pull down the ring or anything, I don't think he really even touches it.

[knickswin]

I do love his style when he dunks it and doesn't pull down the ring or anything, I don't think he really even touches it.

Yeah, I mean I know what the guy I was responding to was saying, but Carmelo is not that great at dunking. He's really quick off the ground, but he's not that powerful a finisher. He gets blocked quite a bit. I think it might be because his hands are kind of small (he can palm the ball, but just barely). He's got style though, I'll give him that. He has pretty good body control in the air.

[Rake2204]

The most exciting in-game dunker to me, currently, in the NBA is Blake Griffin. I'm not ready to call his body of work equal or greater than Vince Carter's, but I'm not upset at the comparisons. I'm always excited to see what Blake does next. Vince may have been the last player to provoke such a feeling. In fact, there's a part of me who still watched Suns highlights whenever I could last year just on the off chance VC may have flashed back the clock a little.

[knickswin]

Young Amare stoudemire.

yeah, pre-micro Amar'e was just insane. Watch him in the 2002 high school dunk contest, just ridiculous that a 6'10 dude is moving like that. I think pre-surgery Amar'e makes a pretty decent case for best physical specimen at the power forward spot ever. So quick, so explosive, so strong, such good body control. He had no Achilles heel either like the other guys I would consider. Kemp had small hands, Blake has short arms, KG was skinny, Chuck was short, and Malone wasn't that quick.

[DFish]

Dunno. Thing is we don't have that much footage of Vince rookie season. But believe me... I mean it's not that easy to claim that Griffin is better in game, contact dunker. You're talking about damn Vince Carter here. Don't get carried away

But if we're talking about the current NBA, we're talking about the current Vince Carter. Right?

And you can't honestly say that the current Vince Carter is a more exciting in-game dunker than the current Blake Griffin.

[whatever666]

Lebron James, Blake Griffin and Dwight Howard, no explanation needed really.

Its exciting, just overpowering everybody, then just jumping so super high looking down into the rim and smashes it with the fury of an angry god, same goes for Blake Griffin. Lebron James aswell, but he does it more from the perimeter, of the dribble then explodes by and overpowers anybody, then takesoff that bionic left leg and he goes up so high, cocks the ball way back and then smashes it down so hard like the rim just killed his family, anybody who dares stand in the way gets posterised, which brings extra excitement.

There is a reason Dwight, Blake and Lebron lead most often in dunks made.

[macpierce]

currently? clearly blake griffin and it aint even close :no:

Hey, moron. Learn to read? Let's go over the thread title: "Who is the most exciting in-game dunker in the NBA?"

My argument is that Vince Carter is still in the NBA... therefore, because Vince Carter > Blake Griffin in terms of exciting in-game dunks (moreover, Vince > anyone else in the NBA) he is the most exciting in-game dunker in the NBA. Granted, the vast majority of those exciting in-game dunks didn't come in the 2010-2011 season like Blake Griffin's have.

If you want to debate that Blake Griffin is the more exciting in-game dunker, then go for it--it's clearly a matter of opinion. But don't end up questioning my literacy; you look like a tool. Ironic how this discussion occurred when you failed to read my initial post correctly.

[imdaman99]

westbrook. that dunk on battier was prob the poster of the year (by someone other than griffin :lol )
but of course nobody knows that because rose gets all the hype.

I think your problem goes much deeper than ability to read and goes to simple comprehension problems. Most exciting current dunker doesn't mean to pick a player who was the top dunker nearly a decade ago. In the OP it's implied that he means RIGHT NOW. That would be like me picking Jason Richardson.... and explaining that in 03 or w/e he was the best dunker.

I can care less about your personal preferences, just don't be a douchebag and pick a player who rarely dunks anymore.

:facepalm , you OBVIOUSLY WERE NOT a Big raptors Vince carter fan.

So you don't take Vince Carter's own word seriously when he called Blake a better, nastier in game dunker than himself? Vince was no doubt the superior dunker. Thing is..... his most famous dunks were his Fred Weis dunk in the Olympics and his dunks in the dunk contest.

Sure he was incredible and was a human highlight reel. He wasn't in the top 3 every single night pretty much like Blake was though. I understand now media is much easier to access but I watched the Raptors a lot dude. I loved the squad of Alvin Williams, Junkyard Dog, Charles Oakley, VC, Mo Peterson, Antonio Davis and those guys. I even watched when T-Mac was on there.

Oh, how convenient for your argument that you put this in... now it all makes sense. Wait a second; that's not what the thread "implied". Read the title: "Who is the most exciting in-game dunker in the NBA?"

Vince Carter is in the NBA. What other qualifications does he need if you've seen half of this guy's career dunks? Maybe his most exciting ones weren't in this past year like Griffin's rookie season, but we aren't discussing "Who had the most exciting dunks this year?"

Such bad logic dude. MOST EXCITING IN GAME DUNKER IN THE NBA. It naturally implies CURRENT or RIGHT NOW. Let me ask you a question bud. If someone said who's the best player in the game would you say Kobe? Because Kobe recently was the best player and he's still in the league? No right? Exactly my point. You're logic has to be the worst I've seen on ISH and that's saying something. I should find the Derp Shark GIF for you.

[Clippersfan86]

If someone says who's the best shooter in the NBA... I'm going to say Peja Stojakovic. Why? Because he's still in the league! He may not be the best shooter as of last season but he was nearly a decade ago. I have to be being trolled right now because you can't possibly be this mentally challenged.

[MichaelCheazley]

Man just quit it. It's all about how someone looks at the question. How does it hurt if someone mentions an older player. If you wanted it to be strictly someway then be specific.

[Clippersfan86]

This isn't a matter of perception. Like I said... if I asked you who the best shooter in the game is.. would it be logical to say Peja just because he's on a roster and USED to be the best? Even though he's not the best and rarely plays anymore? Look at the best dribbler thread. Nobody was retarded enough in that thread to name a past player or older player. It's just not logical. I'm not trying to box the dude into picking anyone specific but picking 99 Carter is just stupid to me.

[MichaelCheazley]

HOW DOES IT HURT THE CONVERSATION??? Why are you so defensive about it? Is it cause one of the more obvious answers is Blake griffin and with the pool of all time dunkers being larger he'd get less mentions?

[Clippersfan86]

HOW DOES IT HURT THE CONVERSATION??? Why are you so defensive about it?

Hey if you guys want to give responses to a thread that are completely unrelated that's on you. I just didn't understand why he was justifying it as logical when it clearly wasn't. I'm all for thinking outside the box and all that.... but saying Vince Carter is so left field considering he hasn't been an elite dunker for 5 years.

[MichaelCheazley]

You act like all of the responses on this forum make sense. Browse the threads around a little.Heck there was even friggen porn in this thread why not berate that person? Atleast there is some context in posting older dunkers.

[Clippersfan86]

So we need to reduce the quality of ISH further? Maybe I was a bit harsh about it..... but It's just a pet peeve when people don't read the question and answer with something completely left field. I've made similar mistakes but rather than defend them when called out... I say my bad.

[vinsane01]

Im sorry but what kind of question is this? I know we all have different preference and idea of what is exciting. But I think i can safely say that generally speaking we are all entertained by the in-game dunks of Blake Griffin; and he is doing it on a regular basis.

It's like the kings commenter always says, "if you dont like that you dont like NBA basketball!" Not that i dont like the dunks of wade and rose, blake just brings a level of dunking significantly higher than the available competition.

title didnt say "current nba player" it said "in the nba" vince carter is still in the nba. his answer isnt completely riduculous...not enough to bitch and moan and cry over, its understandable and possibly legit

[DFish]

Nah, Clippersfan86 is correct.

Saying, "Who is currently the most exciting dunker in the league?" is more or less the same thing as saying, "Who is the most exciting dunker in the league?" within the context of this discussion. "Is" is the present tense form of the verb, and "in the league" rather obviously refers to the current league. Correct? So it's pretty reasonable to assume that we're talking about the current players and their current dunking abilities.

Glad to see logic here. It's pretty obvious Jeff wanted us to base it off current dunking and not a decade ago.

you just proved me right.

its natural to assume we are talking about the present. But the title doesnt directly state "presently" or "currently" and its up for assumption. The poster assumed it was anyone in the nba and vince carter is still in the nba.
You kind of have to be a half whit yourself to get all bent over something understandable.

[Clippersfan86]

How about you use common sense Nathan. If his intent was to include players who were known for dunking a decade ago.. He would of mentioned an all time or best of last decade type list. Change the question a bit and you'll see the logic failure.

Who is the best shooter in the NBA? If I said Michael Redd or Peja Stojakovic based on the fact that 5 plus years ago they were among the best shooters.. Would that be logical to you? Given the material you post I'm guessing you'll answer yes unfortunately.

If one answers "Vince Carter" to this thread's question, they are saying "Vince Carter is the most exciting in-game dunker in the NBA."

But that's not what klee actually means. He means that VC was or has been the most exciting dunker at some point in the past; I.E. in his prime. Is, was, and has been might seem interchangeable to you, but they really aren't. Is describes the present. It's illogical to answer a question referring to the present with an answer that refers to a present player's past abilities that simply no longer exist today.

it doesnt say "ever" "currently" "right now" "the past decadge" "was" it says "in the nba" which is vague so most people assume it is the present....the poster assumed it was any player right now in the nba which is understandable. For you to not understand that and bitching at the guy you must be stupid yourself.

im not dissagreeing with you that the question is meant to ask who is right now the best in game dunker in the nba. My point is u shouldnt get bent on his answer because its not as incorrect as you think it is.

[StroShow4]

How the hell is this thread six pages long? What are all these paragraphs all about?

[DFish]

It's illogical to think this thread is referring to "any player right now" and then give an answer based on past performances that haven't existed for years. That is what you aren't comprehending. You either think the question is talking about the past or present, but you don't decide upon the present and then use the past as criteria. It is not logical.

You should answer Clipperfan's question:

its not that he was somekindof creative dunker or so..... its that he would attack the rim mad as HELL! ridicilous hang time and finesse and power...




what made it extra exciting is just what happens after the dunk.... he was so funky!! remember how he would always do some kindof dance afterwards... ? or some weird swaggalicious slow walk back... or moonwalk.. or simply just stay there and SCREAM and do some kung fu moves at the opponent or just point at the guy he dunked on like "ha ha look what happened to u..." :pimp:

Wade's spin and dunk on Perk was probably the greatest in-gamed dunk I've ever seen.

Blake probably has the best contact dunks

J.R. smith is up there too with his 360 alley oop and the poster on Neal.

[D-Wade316]

And also this guy...

I understand why people can say Rose but the dude doesn't even average a dunk a game. I believe had had below 20 or 25 dunks on the season. To me the guy should have at least 50 to let people know he can get up on any possession.

Did you start watching basketball that day?

[SunsCaptain]

Jared Dudley.

He doesn't Dunk often...But when he does...

:party:


I think 10 dunks this season? :applause: Whats more exciting then getting to see one of those!? You jump out of your seat!

[Nelson14]

gotta griffin

[Arroyo8]

westbrook and amare had some good ones but griffin was just dunkin all over the place

Do I not have a right to think that it's the best in-game dunk I've ever seen?
It's a 6'4" guy coming off a freaking spin through traffic and crushing it with TWO hands . . . over a 6'10" 280 pound shot blocker.

No, he didn't have a full head of steam on the fast break like Pippen on Ewing. No, he's not a 6'10" beast with a huge wingspan like Kemp.
Do you see my point now?

[ukplayer4]

right now jr smith is it to me. but blake is right there to. it isnt a great time for in game dunkers tho, vince/jrich/des mase/kobe/t-mac/wade all past their athletic/dunking prime.

Wades not past his athletic prime

[Fiasco]

How the hell do you have a conversation about logic and tense agreement for 7 pages?

[Papaya Petee]

We all know this is Blake Griffin, but lets talk about second place.

Dwyane Wade takes this. Insane dunks for a 6'4 guy.

Explodes to the rim and makes it look easy! So much hang time. Love seeing him cut through the air in games.

Griff the most exciting though. Quality AND quantity. Guy's a beast.

[Derrick]

Such bad logic dude. MOST EXCITING IN GAME DUNKER IN THE NBA. It naturally implies CURRENT or RIGHT NOW. Let me ask you a question bud. If someone said who's the best player in the game would you say Kobe? Because Kobe recently was the best player and he's still in the league? No right? Exactly my point. You're logic has to be the worst I've seen on ISH and that's saying something. I should find the Derp Shark GIF for you.
Your a prick, you're just mad someone mentioned someone other than griffin. Get off his nuts, and realize vince carter was a better in game dunker.

Key word being was.

As in, past tense.

As in, not relevant to the question posed.

[swi7ch]

Vince Carter.

He's 33 with bad knees but look at his dunks on a NY playground this year. :bowdown:

You apparently can't comprehend the premise of this thread or the question that was asked.

[Kobr]

even though he's not the best dunker, does anyone else like Gerald Wallace's style?

[BGriffin's Dad]

Blake Griffin by far. It's not even up for debate.
