What PG is jumping higher than him and dunking as hard as him?
He so much explosiveness.
I hope he comes back in top form.
Yeah I know most f his dunks are 2 handers but it just looks so awesome.
Kinda reminds me of Nique when he dunks. Like he's angry at the rim.

No, Westbrook's dunks are more aggressive, ferocious, etc, so they are stronger. He attacks the rim on his dunks. Rose's dunks are more finesse and acrobatic. It's just a personal preference as to which you prefer. There's no wrong answer here.

Post a clip of Westbrook.
From what I've seen Rose gets up higher with more power.
Westbrook is a one legged jumper and Rose can jump off 2 or 1

It's amazing how much power he has on his in-game dunks. I've never seen that much dunking force since prime 'Sheed when he was in POR.
Unbelievable for a li'l guy :bowdown:
On a side note, this is why I don't like finesse dunkers like Green or Flight White. Rose has more power in his dunks than these two combined.

It's all a matter of taste. One things for sure though... Rose definitely gets up higher than Westbrook. Westbrook, on the other hand, is really good at conserving his forward momemtum off of two legs... hence the awesome one handed glide dunks to the rim. Kind of like Vince does or, if you guys remember, Derek Anderson.

Yeah I'm pretty sure everyone here knows about different aspects of being a PG.
I just wanted to praise for his dunks at the moment.
John Wall is more creative than Rose but he doesn't have that power and explosiveness.
B.Diddy was nice too however I still would pick Rose over him if we're just talking about dunking.

Why would Franchise get named before Baron? Baron was clearly a better in game dunker.
I like Rose more, if for the only reason being his dunks looks better to me. He kinds of has that gliding appearance (like Clyde or Worthy), which is the best looking type of flight, imo.
Westbrook does has more power. I don't think it's that close in that regard.

Westbrook is a faster and more powerful dunker.
Rose is more smooth and has more style to his dunks.
Both are good dunkers. But would take Rose cuz his dunks have more variety and more entertaining with what he had to do to get to the dunk...

Westbrook is a better one-hand dunker. Rose is the best two-hands dunker.

I've always said Rose is the most talented PG-sized player of all time. I was saying that when he was in high school.
He's basically the Lebron of his position.
And I think Westbrook is #2. Westbrook doesn't quite have Rose's supernatural body control - though he might be a bit quicker. It's tough to tell, because a lot of Westbrook's deadliness comes from his unpredictability, not just raw athleticism.

No, you're not. But you are the only one here who's presupposing everyone else is judging the players' calibres based on their dunking prowess. So, in the end, yes, you're special, just not in the way you'd want to be.

Rose. Dat poetry in motion, moves like a cheetah, so beautiful to watch. Someone complained he didn't do posters: how about two legit 7-footers Oden and Joel Anthony.
And how about number two in the first link in the OP, that was nasty. That in-air adjustment. Steve Kerr was just laughing at how ridiculous that play was, athletically.
Westbrook is two inches taller than Rose.
Rose is shorter and lighter and yet still has more power in his dunks than the bigger Westbrook. Rose dunks like a PF or C while Westbrook dunks like a guard/forward.

Spudd doesn't have any posters. Nobody knew he could dunk until the dunk contest. He's good though but I'm mainly talking bout in-game and posters.
Stevie is good also but I don't feel like he has the power of Rose.
Rose reminds me of Dominique when dunks. It looks like he's angry at the rim.
But It's all preference though. Everyone that was listed are/was great dunkers. I prefer Rose over them though.

Rose and Wilkins don't belong in the same sentence tbh.

Rose actually has a real 40+ inch vertical and gets his head almost rim level, Westbrook dunks harder but sometimes he barely gets the ball to get clear the rim since his vertical is probably around 35-38. But he has longer arms and is taller than Rose, so he can reach further and make better one handed dunks.
