Lebron over the Celtics, 2008 playoffs.
Obviously not the best pure dunk, but the setting, atmosphere, context, and IMO one of the greatest calls ever by Harlan, sends chills down your spine to this day.

This and Baron Davis over AK came to mind right away. Two best dunks I've ever seen live. Would probably go with LeBron's dunk if forced to choose between them, hits closer to home.

In terms of significance, I'd say Kobe-Shaq Alley-oop in the 2000 WCF. It was the exclamation point of the game, the series, the season. Not to mention, it started a basketball dynasty with the lakers finding themselves in that run.

The full version of this was ripped from youtube, and all that's left is one whose title I think is stupid, but scrub Conner Henry dunking in the face of Charles Barkley and Dr. J is the most amazing thing I saw growing up as a Celtics fan.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EYDdZJ2T-7c
It makes up for watching this happen to Bird, via the Sixer who dunked even more frequently than Dr. J or Darryl Dawkins:

My only rule is that it had to be something I saw live and something that I can vividly remember losing my shit about when I saw it happen. Pippen over Ewing is probably the GOAT but I was too young to really remember it. So with that said my favorite is...
Definitely Rose over Joel Anthony in the '11 ECF:

Next closest ones are probably...

Tracy McGrady on Shawn Bradley
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5OHUAjxPo4I
yes you can up the level of the opposition but the level of the dunk would go down. you can mix and match, but the overall result would never equal this.
ultimately if you look at it Bradley was also a 2+ BPG guy and Tracy did that to him.
the dude went up, rested his nuts on his shoulders, took a seat on his traps, rode him to the rim, slammed it down, and then knocked the dude down like a little bish.
bradley was like 8 ft tall and averaged 2+ blocks and he did that to him.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P7EvwWBnBHMI have a tough time picking just one dunk but regarding that Vince on Zo finish, I always thought his playoff flush over Mourning was quite a bit underrated. I'm not sure I'd say I like it better than the one you posted, but there's certain aspects of it I prefer (crowd response, grimy contact, power of throwdown, post-dunk ball bounce, Carter's theatrics): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eDKvU-dbP8A

I think I like the regular season one more because it is the most elegant poster I've ever seen. VC made that one look like a finger roll in the lay-up line which still blows my mind.

Vince Carter over Ben Wallace from near the ft line :lolWatched that one happen. Funny how the memory begins to skew over time. I remember it winning the game for the Raptors in the last 15 seconds or so. In reality, it just broke a tie with a bit over two minutes remaining.
Still, amazing to watch unfold. It was a big game moment and when he attacked and took off, Ben was seemingly directly impeding his path. Carter rose and it looked like a forthcoming block or double-clutch layup. But again, watching live, it looked like Carter jumped, reached a peak, then somehow readjusted and found another peak, seemingly shifting midair and finishing with authority. As a Pistons fan watching Ben Wallace at his shot-blocking high point, that's one that has stuck with me over time. Here it is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mnQPkuOyiFI
It almost looks routine, but that feller just kept going up and up in a situation that did not appear to be dunk-able. Seemed like he side-shifted in mid-air.

This is one of my favourites too. How i miss the toronto days when he dunked over everyone, honestly the guy was back then the greatest dunker ever. Too bad he's just a three point shooter now, although occasionally he shows flashes but heck he's what 36 now?
